  1. Parasite and Jojo rabbit were the films of the year for me. Found 1917 ok but didn't connect with the characters and it fell gimmicky and the joins were obvious.
  2. I'd say getting us up, keeping us up and 2nd in the league cup is amazing, if we turn citeh over and win the cup I'd say that's ridiculously good. I'd say deano is still learning his profession, with the above In mind and where he has come from, you have to say he is a success story. He wasnt a playing superstar who has has the best clubs and budgets handed to him on a plate, as he has said before, he has earned his chance and I'd say well done deano. ........ if we go back down sack the stup... nah, if we go down, he gets a shot at it for me.
  3. Spurs cant afford Jack, if he goes it will be to a bigger club then them
  4. They're all secret service, most courier high level secret sh1t in the bags, most exchanges happen in the loo.
  5. Fair enough bud, but I'd say he stays if we stay up, if we go down (doubtful, I've already predicted 15th based on I've had a bet and I'm a lucky dratsab) I think the fact we are very wealthy and him having claret and blue blood will drive the price up. Edit.... One other factor in all this that's just occurred to me, what if he went and we really did start achieving everything we're all dreaming about, I don't think NWSE are in this for a hobby, they want success and how would Jack feel if it was happening without him.
  6. Cant help thinking that our conversation on here yesterday was read by the lazy journos here there and everywhere and it's making the news today, my love of Jack and the club blind my thinking, I hope and pray he stays but has stated by may he may/probably go at some point. However,60 million is laughable and I hope NWSE offer him the world or get the max fee possible.
  7. Lonely are the brave was his favourite role. Personally think ace in the hole was his best performance and although its Mitchum's film, out of the past is my favourite film he appeared in, probably in the top 3 best film noir ever made and I have to watch vikings everytime it's on TV, great entertainment.
  8. Sad news, The Vikings was my favourite film growing up, RIP legend
  9. Well...…….... we're finishing 15th this year, 8th next year, 5th the year after, we're winning the League cup this year and the F.A. cup next year and Jack's gonna score in semis of the Euro's when England get knocked out, that's what I think anyway
  10. I dont think any of our star players will leave if we go down, they are part of a long term project and in particular Jack loves Villa and the only reason he would have left last time was because of the financial implications, he would effectively have sacrificed himself to save the future of the club he loves. Said it before, he will never leave this club.
  11. Should have bought in Frank instead of Terry
  12. We scored a header, we are not in bottom 3, should be beating these minnows but sometimes everyone is a 6/10 and its not your day, 100% penalty vs Engels and Engels looks better then Konza, recall Chester now!
  13. Bout time these Mickey mouse clubs had a good spanking and put in their place, 5-0 villa, all headers and sky can shove their stats up their bottoms.
  14. No chance, he's a necessity signing and one dictated by ffp. Davis is a sicknote and this is a very smart move, its a no lose situation and who knows, sometimes players just click somewhere, he knows where the net is and can finish, if called upon he is probably as good as what we already have all considered.
  15. Always make me smile, seem to be everywhere
  16. I really like Mings Heaton Guilbert Engels Marvelous Luiz Konza, 7 success stories when everything is considered. Before injury Engels looked like an absolute steel and at times looked like he was holding Mings together. Once he gets back to full fitness he will a nailed on starter, Konza is as good a back up as we could expect for and is the right age but probably a tad over priced. Mings and Heaton are the only 2 we signed that were proven high quality starters at this level. There aren't many right backs I'd swap Fred for, love him and he will only get better, an absolute bargain. Marvelous started well and was looking like a bargain Kante, no idea why he went off a bit but seems to be getting back to a decent level and in todays market he looks like good value. Douglas Luiz is a bit inconsistent but for his age I'd say he's doing great and there are glimpses of a player that will grow in to a top class, 15m about right. As for the others, Targett is looking way better in the new system but was pricey in my opinion. Wesley cost too must, we could have spend that kind on money more wisely, however, I cant help thinking there's a player in there and its just the pressure and adjustment to it all that's held him back. Trez is not for me, just not at this standard, tries his heart out and is a lucky MF but nah. Jota and AEG are better players but are the standard we need fighting for a place on the bench and not regular starters.
  17. Its bang on, sources stats also show that he reared up 68 times
  18. Purslow = ffp genius Edens = financial genius NWSE = all the money in the world I'll wager that less then a handful of people will ever know exactly what any of our players get payed, nudge nudge, wink wink.
  19. A few have been excellent and the others that have come from abroad, from weaker leagues have done pretty good considering the step up and everything associated with moving to another country etc etc, comparing it with the likes of gana veretout etc from the moneyball summer, I'd say they are head and shoulders above them in more difficult circumstances and they turned out to be excellent players.
  20. Its a fair enough comment but I don't think your taking into account that we literally started from scratch not long ago, new owners with zero Prem experience, a manager and coaching staff with zero prem management experience, a full squad, mostly new players almost zero prem experience etc etc, add in that we have had injuries to key players, VABASTARDR, kevin w@nker friend, so many posts and crossbars hit, I don't think anyone has scored an own goal against us, I don't think we've fluked a goal (honest, Trez meant all of them), Samatta was millimeters away from scoring a brace on his debut but nerves got in the way, I could go on, we have literally had nothing go for us and yet we're in a position that most fans would give their w@nking arms for. Please mate, if you really are a villa fan, see it for what it is and that is that we are probably miles ahead of where we should be and even if poxy FFP didn't exist and the owners spent treble what we spent in the summer, we would still need time.
  21. Steve Bruce once killed a Bengal Tiger with his bear teeth, poor Tiger merely glanced at the scoffing munter as he was tucking in to his monster omelette kebab curried fish stick. Edit... this may be true
  22. Agree, we are doing ok, seems bluenose villalad thinks we are not
  23. Thank you, I bet he would run through a brick wall, straight through a burning tree and Kelly Brook swinging naked on a villa love swing to wear our shirt and play in front of the holte end.
  24. He will NEVER play for anyone other then us and England
