I agree with this. If Hutton wishes to drive a bus then that's nobody's business but his. But if he is taking drugs at the same time then he is definitely over stepping the mark.

It was a pretty bad challenge and should have been a red card. But it wasn't a leg breaker. More just a reckless attempt to win the ball with really intent.

It's horrible yeah, just look at nzog's reaction, it's almost like he wants to appeal for a red card then remembers Hutton is on his side... Did he get a red for that? I can't remember.

The bomb squad was nearly as ridiculous as the Mcleish appointment.

Got Liver City and Chelsea treble. So if they draw I blame you

Good point. It is only one game but the fact he has played for Arsenal, Milan and Valencia does suggest he is of a decent standard. He may make big mistakes here and there which seems to be one of the main reasons his reputation has suffered. But he is such a massive improvement on Clark and Baker in what is such a key position.

He'd have most probably made a better job yesterday with that fluffed chance that Gabby had. I doubt his fat ass would have caught up with play in time to be there. based on what? Has anyone at Villa questioned his fitness and condition? he may not be as quick and sprightly as he was and a lack of games at Fulham didn't help, but no reason why he won't get back up to speed. all the while Kozak and Tekkers are out we need as many options as possible Based on him looking out of shape.

Exactly. Plus they may even decide to replace Smalling. The transfer window can't close fast enough.

What??? So Lamberts last 2 yrs don't count? Such a weird comment putting it all on McLeish I don't remember him playing under Lambert in the last two sesons so the comments regarding the shittiness have to be contributed after the McLeish area.But lambert chose not to play him, so he was never given the chance to show his worth. That is true. And that is why it is right to say that when he was piss poor under the McLeish regime, the fans' hatred from him comes from him being a victim of AMC's tactics. The fans could not say he was shit due to the matches under Lambert, as he did not play any. I don't think it's anything to do with tactics I just think a few years back after finish top half 4 seasons in a row our standard had been set high. Hutton was one of those singled out as not good enough and probably rightly so. Since then we've become a regular relegation contender so it's fair to say our standard has dropped. The simple truth is for two years we couldn't find anybody better so had to bring him back. So in a nutshell Hutton is a very good right back for a bottom half team but isn't good enough if looking to push on.

I swear this guy could be worth a few points just by scaring the shit out of the officials.

Some big signings and Vlaar.

Me to. Hope he stays.

Senderos played well today and Vlaar seemed a lot more comfortable with him next to him. Neither of them are world beaters in that position but it's such a big difference without Baker or Clark.

Very pleasantly surprised by performance and result today. Credit where credit due. It's good to have an 11 without a player who is totally out of his depth. Makes such a difference.

Unfortunately no, I think LVG has probably had a bit of a shock and needs to fix it fast. Their defence is so crap and LVG knows what he s getting with Vlaar and knows he can cope with the PL. I d rather they d won and their defence had been brilliant tbh. Their own fans are even arguing about it with a fair few asking for LVG to get him in. True, but I just can't see Vlaar being a big enough name for them, even though he's got the quality. Aren't they getting in Benatia anyway. My cousin was one of those that said the same about Vlaar not being good enough for United. I text him today saying are you sure he isn't good enough? No reply. If their defence continues to leak goals in the next few weeks and they haven't landed all their targets. I can see the bid for Vlaar coming in. Hopefully they don't think he is good enough.

Well that lasted long.

Respect to Hutton. After the way he has been treated by the club for 2 years you have to rate the guy for his professionalism. Played very well today. Fair play.

Man U fans are so deluded. They honestly believe all the problems last season were down to Moyes and nothing to do with the fact the team is shit. Boy has LVG got a job on his hands.

Man U.

A few months back the same sort of rumours surfaced from that site. That's what made it popular.

He genuinely believes what he's been told by a person he trusts! Why shouldn't he share the info? We're all Villa fans and if it turns out to be true then it could be good news for us. If it turns out to be incorrect then there's no harm done. It's what we do on forums …. share gossip, info and opinions. Just feels like we been here before.

Really. I never realised our wage cap ever went that high.

When this doesn't materialise the poster on TBAR apologies and blames incorrect information given to him blah blah and then never posts under that name again. Saying he would shoot himself is a bit dramatic though.

Screw Bloomberg!
