This is all part of a greater plan to make Easah Suliman a Villa legend. Watch this space !!

Accurate to say this is the first time Grealish has started against us since we sold him ?

Terrible to hear esteemed boxing journalist Ron Lewis passed away at this home yesterday morning. Was only at a press conference on Thursday.

I agree with you yes - poor from Villa. Think we’ve come to a point where he knows the players that have the ability to play his way - and the ones who don’t. He has to know by now surely.

Just saying - Dewsbury-Hall still had to make the tackle and it was a fine one too. It was horrendous from Martinez and Kamara but Leicester didn’t not do anything for that goal. That’s not true.

Well, they pressed him mate. They did that. They made him panic and concede possession and they fought hard in the tackle to win it off him when he conceded it for the goal. If we did that to them, you’d say “ great villa pressure “ Yes of course he could of handled it better but to say Leicester did nothing for that goal is somewhat inaccurate.

He had a mare. No two ways about it. Leicester look like they were the first team we played that actually did their homework on him. They blocked his pivot. He’ll need to learn that the ball has to move on a bit quicker when this happens.

Usyk fought and beat the brakes off an elite russian world champion in Gassiev, in Russia. I think he fights Fury and retires. Win or lose. Stands nothing to gain really from fighting and beating Beterbiev. If they fight, it will be at cruiserweight. If you are fighting at heavyweight you can’t just flippantly decide “ yeah im doing cruiserweight “ there’s a weight cut. Cruiserweight is 201lbs and under. Usyk hasn’t had to cut weight since he came to heavyweight and he’s bulked up some. He ain’t doing that at this stage of his career. There will always be someone else when you beat the perceived best out there. Fury and he’s out i think

Not many times id side with Hearn but the fallout between himself and Okolie is a very bad example of when a fighter gets bad people around him and ditch what brought him success. I think he’s a very limited world champion who Hearn promoted brilliantly and manoeuvred to a world title. Now he’s there, ditched his management company 258 ( AJ’S management also ) and Hearn and now Shane McGuigan ( very capable and underrated trainer ) He’s brought on board a lot of hangers on who are giving him bad advice. Moving to Sky and Shalom - huge money offered , i get that, maximise revenues, short career etc but he’s absolutely ripe for that picking. He genuinely believes it’s his in ring ability and it alone that’s got him this far. He’s not naturally talented. Needed a lot to fall in line for him to get here end he’s eroding that now.

This has won the internet

This guys “ career “ has been a hail mary punch against an absolute shop worn and past it , George Groves. How does he keep getting opportunities.

It’s a scouse thing in boxing. They all do it. His brothers. Bellew saying he’d “ decapatite “ Adonis Stevenson . Stevenson stood him on his head in 5 rounds. Fowler. Idiots and absolutely deluded. Callum gave it enough of the big talk prior to Canelo too. Fought scared. Was scared. Ryder beat him. Says it all. Beterbiev sends him to hospital.

Oasis or Blur ?

Not been crass here and it’s a legit question but what are you basing that comparison on ? Marv moves and turns like a bus.

Have we also played imaginary football matches in your head and lost too ?

Seen their social media video. One way you know you’ve dropped down a fair few rungs on the ladder club wise is when you see videos of our gym facility which is vast and impressive to Luton’s who’s looks like it’s a blokes shed at the end of his garden.

Should do a job for them. He’s pretty basic but neat and tidy enough to look good in the championship

Would he had smash it ? Because Redknapp would smash it. You’d go round there any night and find Redknapp hanging out the back of it.

Look at where Doyle-Hayes, Lyden, Vassiliev, Hepburn - Murphy have ended up, amongst others. We’ve had a fair level of incompetence at this club in the last few years but im safe in the knowledge that those we released, we made the right choice.

If he wasn’t in Barcelona’s kids team a few years back, this thread wouldn’t be on the first 10 pages. The English Ryan Gauld. He’ll probably find his way in some nondescript lower league European team. I’m not been harsh but bloody hell you’d swear it was our own brother or son the way we go on here at times. He has had zero impact in 3 loan moves so far. Leagues significantly lower than his parent club are in. Archer was an absolute beast for Boro at the weekend and lit it up at Preston last year. The difference.

Vicky Gomersall is 51. Oh my….

How many did forest sign between 2 windows. I stopped counting after like 25.

Fulham are the 2022/23 Sheffield United. They’ll be sussed out next season. People will ask “ why aren’t teams figuring them out now “ It’s a weird one. Mostly a mental thing. On their part - momentum. The opposition still compartmentalise them as the promoted team and don’t respect them despite their lofty league position.

Except he isn’t and isn’t likely to. I believed ( still do ) that Gerrard is/was woefully inept and that maybe coutinho was hamstrung with such a bad manager. What I’ve seen of him so far with Emery - he’s done nothing wrong but he has in no way effected games either. It’s a damming indictment of a once world class player when we are getting excited by him playing a 5 yard pass in a 10 minute cameo. Coutinho is done. Legs are gone.
