  1. I remember he failed his medical. Turns out our medical team back then were brilliant, as I think he may have retired at the age of 25. Clearly had talent as he signed for Lyon, shame.
  2. Why oh why Bruce left it so late to bring Adomah on I don't know. Getting frustrated with our tactics.
  3. Stats don't look great. Looks like Burton are the home team.

    I think it was and we actually had Clark in midfield too, who scored both goals. Edit: I was thinking of a different game. The one we lost 3-2 in the last minute, we even had Enda Stevens playing
  5. I had a quick scroll on his twitter and couldn't find anything Liverpool related on a search. However he definitely did have some pro Liverpool tweets, and i remember a villa fan querying it and he said he supported them. Probably a similar situation to Gabby to be honest. We all know him as a supposed Villa fan now but he was Arsenal as a kid. Not that any of this actually matters but it's nice to know when they are one of us like Grealish. Hopefully Rushian has seen the light.
  6. How long has it taken us to find a decent LB? I'd agree with £20m plus and i don't think we'd find a better LB.

    It's incredible how we stayed up for so long. I seem to recall an injury crisis under Houllier and he had to play a Midfield of Albrighton Bannan Hogg and Herd (or something similar). Pretty sure we got a result too.
  8. That comparison was made in 2010 when Man City signed Johnson and he'd broke into the England team. No one could have predicted what would happen next.

    The lineup where we drew 1-1 with Blackburn under Mcleish is up there with the worst too. --------------Given---------------- Hutton----Collins----Cuellar----Warnock Albrighton--Herd--Petrov--N'zogbia ---------------Ireland----------------- -----------Agbonlahor-------------- Anyway, I would have liked Gil to be recalled. We didn't have a shot on target against Norwich until the 90th minute, and I'm often looking at the bench for players who can create chances for the strikers and all I see is Grealish and Adomah.
  10. Newcastle are favourites to sign Delph...albeit 4/1.
  11. He's tweeted quite openly in the past that he supports Liverpool.
  12. Bruce caused this loss imo. Poor selection and poor tactics.
  13. If we managed to get McCarthy in Jan then it would be an unbelievable coup at this level. I just don't see it though. Maybe in the summer if we manage to get promoted and even then it would be a class signing.
  14. I still find it ridiculous that we loaned out Veretout.
  15. Think fitness has been this guys issue.
  16. Shame he's off. Would have probably got a chance when the others go to ACON.
  17. Whether some fans like it or not, defenders are terrified of players with his pace which will always make him a good option.
  18. Brought an 18 year old Jordan Henderson into the Sunderland team and made him a regular starter.
  19. I could have sworn he was getting European attention, from his performances ins Scotland and Europe.
  20. Dembele left Fulham for Celtic and look at all the attention he is getting now.
  21. I think he must regret the move, even though we've been relegated. Captain of the club, loved by the fans for being 'loyal', regular starter for England. Now he's injury prone, can't get a look in at City, and noway near making the England squad. 100% he'd of been on the plane to France had he stayed at Villa.

    Even if we don't have a recall option, it would make sense for Deportivo and Villa to cancel the loan.
