    At the moment they are showing every game because we can’t attend games. But in a normal situation they would show less games but you’d pay the same monthly fee. Only way to watch your team if they were not on tv was to attend the game or find an illegal stream. Now they have made it available for you to pay to watch the game. Is this option going to remain available once crowds are allowed back in? If so I have no problem with it. If not then yes, it’s a piss take.

    I want him to release it that split second earlier so it doesn’t encourage the opponent to dive in and leave one on him. Yes it wins freekicks and gets players booked. But those knocks are going to take their toll.

    But what’s the difference mate? isnt a 4231 just a 433 but with 2 of the midfields told to always hold?

    I always knew you loved Mason Mount more than Jack!

    This is more or less how we set up on Sunday isn’t it

    So is the buy back 35m? If he does leave I guess we’ll just have to spend the whole amount (plus more) on his replacement. Let’s just enjoy the season for now.

    He played 90 minutes. Happy for him. Can’t believe we’ve got a full Brazilian International in the team! Maybe the last season though

    Ok just read what Southgate said. He called him a matador! What more do fans want ? I also agree with it being worrying how he draws fouls in by holding the ball a split second longer then needs to. As Villa fans we all shit ourselves whenever he gets clobbered. Sounds like the England manager gets worried too.

    Who said he doesn’t pass the ball quick enough? I heard it in commentary but on that particular moment it was correct because he had a runner and didn’t release it. Jack is being spoken about a lot and he doesn’t play the perfect game. If every pundit just had a wank fest it would be a bit boring wouldn't it? Releasing the ball sooner is an area of his games he has massively improved upon. The fact some so called pundits are looking at areas he could improve is a compliment if anything. They are acknowledging how good this player is and can be. Any other England player getting spoken about as much?

    To be fair at Villa our whole team revolves around him. As soon as someone gets the ball they look for Jack. Even Mings did it when he came on. That’s probably something Southgate wants to avoid.
  11. Vive_La_Villa
    I’m not saying there wasn’t something up. My comment was more around how personally fans are taking it. To be fair maybe I’m being a bit selfish in the fact I couldn’t care less about England. I just want him fit and doing the business for Villa.

    I think people are getting a bit carried away with the Southgate hates Grealish stuff. Yes he had a problem with him and should have called him sooner. But he has been called up and played the last 80 minutes or so. You’re all acting like the school PE teacher isn’t picking your kid for the school football team.

    Jota didn’t get in to the team. They have better players. If we finish above Wolves it should mean we’ve had a great season. Agree with rest of your post.
  14. Vive_La_Villa
    To think Spurs could have had him for 25 million.
  15. Vive_La_Villa
    Southgate is thinking about when we come across the better teams. He is considering results rather than performance. So whilst this defending approach is horrible against weak teams it’s how he wants the team to learn how to play so they can grind out in result in tournament football. If we bore the country but get to the semi finals or final of the Euros nobody will complain.
  16. Vive_La_Villa
    I don’t. We have Leicester 8 days from today and the last thing we need is one of either Mings or Grealish picking up an injury in what are glorified international friendlies. Really hope both of them just play a few minutes here and there in the next two games if they must feature. Come on Southgate, where’s your top 6 club bias!
  17. Vive_La_Villa
    He’s showed what he can do. Can he please be rested for the next two game’s?
  18. Vive_La_Villa
    He was still best player on the pitch. Different class.
  19. Vive_La_Villa
    Some of you lot are paranoid I swear.
  20. Vive_La_Villa
    Nah he’ll be in 100%.
  21. Vive_La_Villa
    I got my maths wrong. We would actually end on 41 which was 15th.
  22. Vive_La_Villa
    He will score tonight.
  23. Vive_La_Villa
    This has tickled me!
  24. Vive_La_Villa
    Our start has been so good if we only managed last years points per game from now until the end of the season we would end on 47 points which was 13th last season. I’m pretty sure we’ll do much better than that. 59 points got you 6th last season. Edit: got my maths wrong. I believe we would end on 41. We were pretty poor last season.
  25. Vive_La_Villa
    If Wolves and Sheffield United can sniff around top 6 then why can’t we? I doubt we will but you never know....
