  1. We’ve got a very good first 11 now. If there were areas that could be improved it would be Trez and Targett. Doesn’t make them bad players or scapegoats. It just means we’re heading in the right direction. Fans need to stop being so sensitive.
  2. Jack will feature but from a Villa viewpoint I hope he doesn’t play too much. Need him 100% fit for Leicester. **** England.
  3. The thing is the odd player having to come in to best 11 significantly weakens us with the odd exception. But to be fair its probably the same for more than 50% of the league. As you say it’s a gradual year on year progression.
  4. Saw him on the pitch during the warm up without the two balls. Didn’t recognise the guy!
  5. That fact you called it soccer means you know nothing about football
  6. I do wonder how much of an influence Shakespeare has had. We do seem to be playing the way Leicester did when they won the league. Not having as much of the ball but looking deadly when we win it back.
  7. You could also admit you know nothing about football Glad you’re back.
  8. I watched it with my mate who’s a Leeds fans so has no bias and even he asked me who he was in the first half and said he looked a bit lost and knackered at times. So it’s not just us.
  9. Whilst this is true in the case of many players I think with Trez he just didn’t look on the same level as the rest of our attacking players because of how high we’ve raised the bar. McGinn, Luiz, Barkley, Grealish and Watkins are top players. Trez is doing superb and did an excellent job. Deserves to stay in the team. Saying he isn’t on the level of the players mentioned isn’t a criticism. It’s a testament to how far the club has come.
  10. Didn’t realise he had been called up. I guess all the big teams have their fair share of South American players.
  11. He can’t go anywhere until January can he?
  12. Didn’t even consider this. So Mings was our oldest outfield player at 27? Wow the future is looking bright.
  13. As I said in the Watkins thread. Sometimes you just know.
  14. Quality player. A couple of times in first half he got isolated and dealt with it well. Looking a bargain already.
  15. You can’t develop your left foot can you? Surely it’s something that has to be done as a kid.
  16. For now I just hope we can field the same team. Any long travels for the international lads? I assume Luiz will be travelling the furthest. edit: he’s playing in Peru 3 days before Leicester.
  17. If I had to find a scapegoat after Sunday I’m afraid it would still have to be Trez. Not because he didn’t play well because he did and I also really like the guy. But he didn’t look on the same level as the rest of the team. Shows how far we have come. edit: I only used the term scapegoat to keep with the theme of the page. Keeping on topic. Everton now favourite to sign King.
  18. Looking at the Fleetword team a lot of the players were 20 years of age or under. Did our youngsters just get comfortably beaten but theirs?
  19. If the options were loan him with no option to buy or lose out on in him for a season I think we know what 90% of fans would have chosen. If we didn’t loan him somebody else would have.
  20. Good Luck to him. He tried his best, just wasn’t to be.
  21. Apparently in talks with Reading. What happened to him?
  22. Sorry. Didn’t realise you were just responding to someone about it.
