    is anyone ever good enough for us? According to you especially.

    I think we all got carried away with our expectations of what might happen in January - we made two good signings, but sounds like a lot of attempted signings didn't happen, which I don't blame on the club. The Leicester result wasn't down to lack of Jan signings, but does feel bitterly disappointing when we have a wounded angry Man City to play at their place followed by the league leaders next up, the odds of getting anything out of those games feels pretty low. Especially if we continue to play out of the back whilst both teams run at us in packs of three, we will crumble like a 50 year old biscuit. Our whole defence looks w*nk at the moment. Cash and Digne need to be benched, but not sure i have much faith in Moreno either.

    Isn't he injured/not match fit yet? I don't want to enter the how good/how bad Bertie is debate. I will say comparisons between him and Bailey don't work at all on any level. Would rather a player we spent 16/17 mil on and is probably commanding decent wages - is not rotting in a foreign league whilst we subsidise their wages for the benefit of another club, whilst their contract and value runs down. I don't know what role he will play under Emery but if anyone can get a tune out of him, Uncle Unai can.

    have to think this might also be why Nakamba didn't go to Watford...

    Are you sick of this board not backing your transfers in January and telling unknown french journalists just how annoyed you Aouar. Also what is your favourite beer?
  6. VillanousOne
    lolz isn't the issue the players we are trying to sign aren't convinced by the project? or the clubs won't sell I doubt it's the owners dragging their feet and not keeping promises
  7. VillanousOne
    Aouar you sure?

    It's weird, the narrative before Emery joined was the players/squad wasn't good enough and he would get considerable funds to overhaul it, pretty sure we were pretty billy big b*llocks about giving him a big war chest as part of his agreement to join. But then he turned this bunch of dead weights into a team capable of grinding out and occasionally nailing some impressive wins. The Stevenage loss (and a few times he's had to use fringe players) certainly would have shown Emery how poor our squad depth is, Moreno is a good signing, Duran is meant to be one for the future greenlit by - but not chosen by the manager (maybe he will start sooner than we think). I thought we wanted a 'big finish' insert Kenneth gif. If we let Nakamba and Chambers go aswell as Ings, Archer (loan), Ludwig, Guilbert and Sanson without anymore incomings, I can't see us really getting anywhere near European places unless we really do remain injury free till the end of the season.

    Just waiting for us to shake it all about
  10. VillanousOne
    It is where Villa players go to die after all
  11. VillanousOne
    why are we discussing Gallagher, not seen one link anywhere and he seems to start most games for Chelsea.
  12. VillanousOne
    a lot of loan deals don't have recall options - QPR have a tiny squad, doubt they would let a player from their regular 11 go back if no recall clause. Find it odd we let Archer go on loan, then sold Ings??? If we sold Chambers we would need to bring Swinkels or Bogarde on the bench.

    Bednarek was in response to Carlos getting injured, Dendonker was in response to Kamara getting injured (i think) both signings triggered by circumstance. I think the fact we are letting a fair few players go, means we must be confident of getting a couple in, otherwise we are a couple of injuries from trouble
  14. VillanousOne
    do we ever buy players this close to the end of the window or even on the final day??? other than desperation signings and loans nobody wants, but that era is a long time ago, most transfer deadline days for us are irrelevant in recent years as all business is done at the start of Jan if at all
  15. VillanousOne
    You mean when the click bait/twitter bulls*tters try to cover their backs by claiming if he doesn't join in Jan he will join in the summer, so they can't be proven wrong until.... the summer when it also doesn't happen
  16. VillanousOne
    The player who was joining them in the summer and not as an immediate replacement to anyone?
  17. VillanousOne
    Thankfully we never signed him, most over hyped player since Dale Stephens
  18. VillanousOne
    pages and pages of transfer drivel cross multiple threads, no actual links for days... what a rush
  19. VillanousOne
    El Fuego - but turns out he was also just a Leeds fan

    "I have a revenge to take on what has happened in recent months. I am very determined and I want to regain the pleasure of playing football." Recent months he had the chance to impress a new manager and didn't succeed.... I would want to take revenge on the months before Emery took charge... whatever the hell that means
  21. VillanousOne
    53 pages and a bid aint one
  22. VillanousOne
    who? Does physically shot mean by a gun and bullet?
  23. VillanousOne
    Be nice to have a couple of youngsters in the mix who can be given some game time, appreciate Kaden Young is there already. Most teams have at least one youngster getting some game time, we have erm.... Jacob Ramsey who though young is a senior pro now. Not sure who else is ready, then again no one ever is until they play and look the part, our loans are mostly awful.
  24. VillanousOne
    thank ******
  25. VillanousOne
    do you know how Chelsea spend billions without ever falling foul of FFP? oh this is the Jhon Duran thread... when does he officially join?
