  1. He did very well apart from getting done early on and looking a bit foolish He seems a bit like a taller Ashley Westwood, with slightly better passing.
  2. We could do worse than choose between Bacuna, Richards and Hutton.
  3. I don't know. Compared to most of the animals people eat, a dog is one of the more likely animals to eat you, if it came to it. So it's kind of more fair than eating a poor innocent little lamb, f'rinstance.
  4. You disgust me. come on, just a nibble Certainly not.
  5. Sounds about right. Nice. I know the whole net spend thing can annoy, but it's nice to think that maybe there's a stash of £10m or so which we haven't touched yet (ignoring any future exits, baker etc). Net spend is only annoying if people are using it to evaluate a manager in the transfer window. Nothing wrong with looking at it to gauge the level of interest the owner has in the team.
  6. One thing that I like about our dealings is that (apart from Adebayor) all our signings are joining a bigger club. No more signing castoffs from bigger sides who are bored from day one.
  7. I can confirm that it IS supposed to be fun. The last five years would make anyone forget.
  8. Being the only one to score goals in pre-season isn't going to hurt, and he did score goals in the league before his injury at a pretty decent rate. He might not be that good, but his scoring record is good enough to make me look forward to seeing what he can do in his first proper season with us.
  9. The nzog replacement Fantastic. If you pass a ball to this bale there's a 50% chance it will end up with a Villa player. Truly we are strengthening in all positions.
  10. They asked him the question at 18 million. So offer them 19 and know that this time the club will literally be begging him to be on his bike with his baguette tucked under his arm.
  11. I'm curious, but I'm also lazy. I'll settle for "probably not" ...dzzzzzzt.
  12. -------------------Given------------------- --Lowton----Herd----Vlaar----Luna--- --Sylla--Delph--Cleverley--Weimann-- ---------Benteke-------Bent-------------- Subs To Be Continued… Stevens Helenius I'm pleased to see you've opted for a 4-4-2 formation. Always the best bet.
  13. Have you read the thread? There seems to be a lot of smoke. Doesn't mean there's a fire, but...
  14. I'm bored with hearing about the Leicester forum. Go on: Brush up on your Eengleesh school French and tell us what the Nantes forum is saying instead.
  15. He was cremated, but maybe a pile of his ashes... (actually I've no bloody idea if he was cremated. Probably not.)
  16. Weird, but not totally crazy. He'd be the best footballing brain we've had at the club in decades. I'm up for this.
  17. Some are suggesting it'll be around 60 mill, which seems a lot, but half of that is Benteke money and there's more revenue coming in this season. Considering the danger of relegation, 60 sounds about right. Only about 30 gone so far, too!
  18. Barely been in the same league as us for 5 minutes, and made the great escape having spent the season condemned by everyone back to chumpionship football. Talk about blinkered. I can't bear to think that some team's football forum might be populated by a bunch of crackpots.
  19. But it's okay because now we're getting some better Jordans.
  20. Translation: "so now it's his ******* problem, ha ha."
  21. I'm as keen to see him gone as anyone, but isn't the only thing we're getting excited about a tweet that could just be because his local MP declined to petition for a widening of his verge?
  22. I think this is ready to go full Ron Paul. Anyone?
  23. I hope she gets on with it, anyway. Hopefully she's rung IT by now.
