  1. Can understand the calls for Smith to go, and tbh I'm not sure that even his biggest fans could argue against it. But, with 4/5 starters absent, 2/3 starters hideously out of form, and subs bench full of kids. I wouldn't bank on whoever comes in doing much better.
  2. Well I think he'll be gone soon. It's part of the same argument, do you think DS should be sacked? Yes who do you think should replace him? I'm not telling you. Its a discussion forum. To share opinions and the rationale behind them. You only sack someone with someone better ready to come in. I hope you have a lovely evening.
  3. Ah come on now. You're not shy at suggesting he should be sacked which is the owners job.
  4. Problem is the captain is meant to be the steadying force _ that isn't mings! He appears as stressed during games as villa twitter.
  5. Smith has ballsed up, but jesus we can't pass the ball. They all like they've been on the lash.
  6. Totally agree. Thought he was impressive today.
  7. It's a privately owned club, so this transparency is unlikely to happen, they're not going to tell competitors what their spending plans are. We can't sign half a dozen players every window, and integrate youth. We've spent big (not net), money we don't spend today may well be there for future spends.
  8. What would you have the club say? They clearly feel that the right player isnt available at the right price.
  9. There's some really panicky views being expressed here. We have to move away way from signing players for the sake of it. Only sign if it's right and improves us in the long term.
  10. Not a great performance, but with so many players out it was always going to be disjointed. Glad to see the vast majority appreciated this in the post match manager voting.
  11. If we play the same team as last week, that's not far from full strength.
  12. Mings was injured before the Newcastle game he had a lot of strapping on his chest. If there was a covid issue, I think that would have come out in press conference etc.
  13. It'll be interesting what allocation we recieve.
  14. So you're saying there is a chance. It's happening.
  15. Thanks for this thread, Hornso. It must take a lot of time but uts really informative. Even if our youngsters aren't making the pitch as unused sub, it's much better experience being around a squad where if they impress they'll get a chance. Realistically none of the loanees, with the exception of Kessler would be anywhere near the 1st team at Villa this year.
  16. New season nerves I think.
  17. Love some of the votes on the match thread! Nervous game and atmosphere. Still a big cdm hole.
  18. Late on. Too late to do much I think.
