  1. If we sign Digne/Tagliafico/someone who is going to start as LB, we got Targett as backup, and we got Chrisene as a younger for the future. Chrisene is a few years under Kesler-Hayden but he is highly rated
  2. Dude, its villalad21 We all know there are no good players from Bundesliga who ever played in PL.

    Tbf this isnt that evil of rumours to slip out
  4. Not many of the players bought after promotion have been "failures" thou. If we put in price and what they done. Heaton and Wesley (not to their own fault), Samatta, Jota and Engels are the only ones I would say have been low return on investment. The loan of Drinkwater can also be added there, but a loan. Sanson could be argued, but I believe he will be good for us in the future.
  5. Imagine him continuing that on Twitter while being at SHA
  6. We have a limited amount of money due to quite heavy spending since we got promoted. My main question is how to approach this window. Do we go for either: 1. Wait until summer with real quality due to better return on investment (january usually more expensive thant summer) and run with what we got. This could also give i.e. Chuk, Archer, JPB (unless loaned out) more chances 2. Go big in january and pay the price. If we feel Europe is out of reach this season I wouldnt mind nr 1. However then we also need to use the younger players, and not give game time to players who are not expected to be here in the future. No matter the choice I expect any played to come in to be a clear upgrade on the ones we already have. Except CB where I can admit that competition might be the most needed. LB and DM are in dire need of strengthening.
  7. Rumours are that Young is recalled as well
  8. 41 players and not moving anyone on it is then!

    Swindon needs a striker according to their fans.

    Ezri Konsa

    This is key, and is what all of our defenders do. Not only Konsa, Cash and Targett as well. Without Mings we look shaky
  12. Gerrard system puts the 2 players behind the strikers more narrowly than Smiths system. Saying they play either wide or as a 10 are both correct and wrong. They play as both, generally stationed between the two positions.. Easy to spot in our defending, the two CMs are the ones out wide to defend while the two CAM/IF/wingers do it centrally.
  13. tbf he did have an amazing save on a shot yesterday.
  14. I dont understand how a player can go from one of the best in our team to one of the worst Without Mings he seems to falter even more. Last season he was one of our best, was it due to the fact it was no fans in the stadium?
  15. Hause has been a great player for us with the price we got him for. Yesterday did expose his flaws massively. Likeable fellow, but I cannot see a future here for him. Wish it was otherwise
  16. Lb, cb and dm for me. Nakamba out forcing us to up the dm chase
  17. Great technical guy its hard to dislike. Still struggle with his decisionmaking. Would be so much more beneficial if he knew when to pass
  18. Yesterday we played with Watkins Ings and Buendia. Watkins and Ings both wants to move into the same room, both refusing to pass to anyone in a better position. I could count at least 3 times yesterday, if those two had opened their eyes and rolled it to Buendia coming with huge space on the opposite side we would have had a huge chance. So frustrating to see strikers being that ego, I feel we are playing Buendia worse. He is making great movement and creates space for himself, but our team refuses to pass to him (Cash done it many times this season as well). I dont know if Watkins and Ings will work out, but right now it doesnt. Perhaps some times in the training field will help, right now. There is no cohesion in the movement up front.
  19. Just look at the shambles our defense has been any time Mings has not been on the pitch... His leadership is so important on the pitch, and I am baffled by how many people that cannot see it. Konsa looks way worse when combined with Hause.
  20. Skipped, but also yelled out how brilliant of a man Mings is!
  21. How can you be a Villa fan and not worry we would concede? Teach me these dark arts, I am scarred
  22. 10 teams have scored more from open play.
