I think Gerrard is utilising the dark arts and he will actually start personally. 

my head says he wont, my heart wants him to start tho.

It’s arrived!  

interesting reading (https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/aston-villa-transfers-chukwuemeka-bissouma-22761106)

Im not sure how you read that, and dont take from it that he thinks we need a no.6 this window.

Dougie playing "relatively well" (in the no.6 role), that says it all for what Gerrard thinks tbh.

Would suit Dougie anyways, he's more of a no.8 imo.

That’s really not what’s happened though is it. 
A video has leaked of him in an office talking to two people with a beer bottle in his hand. 
Not even remotely in the same ballpark. 

if you think it was only the conservatives up to this stuff, you must be mad mate.

They are all as bas as each other.

It is an old story and was reported by The Sun in May 2021 and went nowhere as rules were being followed as it turned out the video is of him hosting a virtual quiz (socially distanced) from the office of an MP. 

you can see from the video of it, that it wasnt socially distanced.

whether we think he's good enough or not, i dont see the problem.

We will have 3 senior keepers, we can send all our young keepers out on loan for development & experience, and if martinez does miss the odd game, we have 2 x senior keepers to choose from, depending on who is doing best in training.

Dont see a negative, especially as its a loan.

this gets better and better.

the White Knight Keir Starmer has now had a video leaked of him in a staff party while we were all locked down.

Quell surprise!

Makes sense to me. 

I love Jed but is he an able deputy in the Premier League? Behind this defence I'd say no.

i love the Jedi Man for what he did helping us get promoted, but 100% he isnt a PL keeper im afraid.

I think he is quicker than he looks. 

Wasn't he one of the quickest players in the league season before last?

it doesnt matter how fast you are, if you cant control a football, in a game of football.

hearing Wayne Smith is imminent too.

sorry, who?

I Like how Gerrard was respectful but honest by basically saying "Trez is coming back from a long injury, we have spoken about what he needs, he needs games, he could find that challenging here so we will see what lands (in terms of a loan or transfer)".

He was dreadful but inoffensive before Brentford.

He is dread and offensive post Brentford.

Get. Him. Out.

i think i am reading between the lines here, but you are implying we would benefit from his sale to another club yes?

I have no idea what that means

"Candidly young squire, whom does not enjoy and appreciate splendid electronic internet pictures with astoundingly chucklesome phrases imprinted on them"

under a new transfer embargo for Jan.

i thought this deal was dead in the water now?

Just to check - is this just a loan until the end of the season? There seemed to be a lot of talk about it being an 18 month loan 

 

Anyone know?

end of season with 33m buy option.

It cant be 18 months, cus in 18 months his contract expires, and there would then be no need for a buy fee.

when's his contract up? thought it was end of the season?

if not, SG will give him a fair crack i'd imagine

2023, so 18 months left.

To the people saying we need a DM such as Bissouma, who are we dropping should we have a fully fit squad?

Nakamba - if fit is decent backup it seems.

Luiz - who isnt really a 6 anyways, he's more of an 8.

simples.

Doesnt need too be specifically Bissouma tho tbh, but we do need a proper DM/no.6.

At the moment we dont have a top class no.6.

what is the contract length?, 3.5yrs / 4.5yrs?
