  1. If you've enjoyed the Wire, the Sopranos and Succession, I'd recommend the Le Bureau on stream via Amazon. It's a French spy thriller box set. Subtitled, but brilliant. A very different French series. Almost as good, is Call My Agent. on Netflix.
  2. Agree but I think there have been signs of a more forward looking approach from Nakamba in pre season games
  3. He's looked good pre season, kicked on from last. Think he's been more forward looking in his play of late. If he can develop this further, he will deserve to play.
  4. Spot on. I think this is something that Southgate doesn't like. He is trying to build a squad of committed and humble players. If Grealish goes, I'll be more sympathetic to Southgate's stance.
  5. Thought he coped well in the euros with Southgate's eccentricities
  6. I think Jack is a sublime talent and a decent enough bloke, but, it takes a very special person to resist the temptations of instant success and trophies.
  7. Sadly, it's the law of the jungle. As a mid-table, upwardly mobile side we poach Buendia from Norwich.
  8. Think the tantrum against Stoke was the last straw.
  9. Feel a bit sorry for Leon Bailey. He should be the main news, but, with all this stuff about Jack, his thread today has been limited to a handful of postings.
  10. Skoda, not flash. Reliable and solid, and excellent value for money.
  11. Being reported in a French sporting newspaper that we're interested in buying Rhian Brewster from Sheffield United, as long as they can recoup most of what they paid Liverpool. Evidently, Liverpool have a buy back clause written into contract until 2023. This might prove a stumbling block.
  12. Ok, I love Villa, and have for 55 years, but clearly I'm missing something.
  13. Its all down to opinions, but if our recruitment team thinks he's good enough and has potential, then I'll back them. He looks a good player on Youtube, albeit very selective, and comes across as an intelligent young man. Jack has only been really world class in the last year or so.
  14. Good to see majority of players complete a full game. Steer looked more solid than previous games. Ashley very involved and classy. Jadon Phillogene-Bidace confident, full of potential. Just needs to sharpen up on final decision making.
  15. most of the team will have to play for the full 90 minutes. Only 3 subs. The others playing against Crewe, including Buendia. All seems a bit bizarre.
  16. I'm in France and I've had no problem accessing it
  17. Spot on. we've got to have faith. we've got a more than capable team I/c of our transfer operations.
  18. They did us proud in getting promoted, but we've moved on
  19. I don't think Tuanzebe would come unless he were promised regular games. I don't think we can promise that
