Have some of that Arteta

Would add how poor Flekkin was especially for Villas 3 rd Oli took it well but the keeper despite the deflection on the cross should punch that away not good enough for this level flapped at a few crosses before and after.

Some fair comments there and forgot to mention our first was a ridiculous miss hit from our centre back took a swing with his right foot misses and hits his left and trickles into the other corner.

Gutted we couldn’t hang on for a win and that wouldn’t have been flattering for us.Dreadful referee we were attacking with players over and Jensen gets wiped out and he blows for half time one of the many poor decisions for both sides all game.Im reading on here we parked the bus we had as many shots on target as Villa and always looked dangerous going forward and Beumo scored the goal of the game.Hope Villa get 4 th spot just pleased with a few players on the way back we are looking like a good side again.

Been dreadful

That game was the best we have played in ages United were poor though and very lucky.Wednesdays game against Brighton was poor and just about deserved a draw.

Improved but I’m still not keen his distribution is good but for a big lump he’s bullied easily hoping our youngster we signed in January comes good

Not fearing this game as I was a few weeks back as we have a few players back now although still missing our skipper Norguaard and all our back 4 Rico Mee Pinnock and Hickey as we have for most of the season.Toney could miss out as he is carrying an injury and we have Sheffield and Luton games coming up which we need to win to stay in this boring predictable league for another season.Could have Mbeumo Wissa and Schade available to start who served us well when Toney was out.Think we will give you a tough game as we normally do except for the hammering 2 years ago.Always enjoy Villa park one of the few remaining iconic stadiums with a great atmosphere which we will not contribute as much as usual due to our clubs stupid decision to only request 1500 tickets bazaar as we have sold out last 2 years

Brentford ticket office cock up again only requested half our allocation when we have sold out last 2 seasons.We have lower tier only

I thought Toney did ok last night not so sure it was enough to make him a certainty for the squad.We all know if fit Kane will start every game so whoever goes as back up will be feeding off scraps.I think Olli is the better all round player but think Toney fits the way Southgate wants to play.From a personal view the better he plays for England the more money we will get when he **** off in the summer.Good to see 3 players associated to my club get on the pitch last night some achievement all signed for under 20 million now worth 10 times more.

I have seen both many times and think Ollie is the better all round footballer.Although Ollie had a poor game along with others against Brazil Toney will have to improve on his current poor form to jump ahead.

Money,FIFA are encouraging money from wherever they can get it hence the Saudi investment coming their way.Premier league owners like at Newcastle and City will spend mountains of money mostly in Europe on players that will feed back into their coffers.Lets see what happens in the summer and clubs like yours think Christmas has come early.

Looking at the lack of spending in the January window where Brentford have become the biggest spenders the answer is yes because most clubs seem to be on the brink of falling foul of FFP.Sky sports transfer programme was as lively as a dead sheep in January window.

Sorry should have put this in FFP thread

Yes I’ve been told they are the drivers behind this

Needs 14 clubs to agree and it goes through and there are at least that many with billionaire owners.

Most of this will become irrelevant when the PL have their meeting in June to announce new rules on FFP which will suit clubs with Billionaire owners but not the likes of Brentford West Ham Wolves Bournmouth to name a few.Basically the top 6 and a few other clubs outside will be free to spend as much as they like as long as the spend is backed up with guarantees a type of escrow account.

I think you are right about what can happen with new owners and could very well happen to us.I have always thought we had a short shelf life in the Premier League and have lasted longer than I thought.Benham stopped putting money into the club while we were in the championship and through excellent transfer business there was no need.However to compete in the PL for top 6 you need to have the finances way beyond his reach and let’s be honest what’s the point just aiming for survival every season it’s boring and I’d rather be in the championship going for promotion or play offs ok you still end up back there but at least you have some excitement.Bet Southampton and Leicester fans are enjoying this season compared to their last years in the PL.

Could but once we get past the next games Wolves Liverpool Arsenal Man City man United and Chelsea we should have all our (8) players back apart from Rico we have plenty of winnable games.Would like to think with Schade Bmeumo Wissa to add to last nights attack we will give anyone a game.City are a class above everyone in this league last night was their first time this season they had a full squad to pick from their bench was unreal.

Yes saw that about his ability with his feet maybe the reported fee of 3 mill reflects he has to improve and maybe we will not play out from the back so much which suits me as don’t think we are that brilliant at that.

You are spot on there Raya won’t be coming back sadly for me,Flekken has been a poor signing and was lucky Saturday when he was flat footed again when 2 shots just went just past the post with him well beaten.As good as your first goal was he never even dived for it even though the shot was outside the pen area.He will be number 1 keeper by the end of this season.

Went for the bigger club option

I don’t think it’s cheating it’s all part of the present state of the game whether it’s feigning injury, calling for a throw or corner when you know it’s not yours or even not retreating the full 10 yards for a free kick ect.Forrest have continued to break FFP rules going back to the Championship.

I agree I really rate McGinn but he dived a couple of times right in front of where I sit and was warned by the ref.This was just one of numerous we see in all games not just digging him out but he was getting very frustrated in the game as he was trying to win the battle in midfield and Villa were losing at the time.

Has any of your players ever taken a free kick or throw from the wrong place you know nicked a few yards all ours do.Cheating yes they all do it diving rolling around holding their head when they haven’t been touched I’ve watched yours do it earlier in the season McGinn the main culprit along with some of ours.The sooner will sell Toney the better for me but I would love to see the reaction if Villa bought him
