Average points for a Championship 6th placed finish is 73.8 points. Therefore we need 30 points to hit this. 10 wins from final 13 games should get us 6th place, especially considering this season is a below average one for points gained. Still never going to happen though!

Get Rafa Benitez in. Not going anywhere under Mike Ashley, closer to his fam in Liverpool, has won this league before. Not to mention that once we get up, we will be loaded, with an ex Real Madrid manager in charge. Or just chuck some money at Eddie Howe. He must be bored by now. UTV

Played well last night. First time I've seen him not take the easy pass back to the centre half every time, and look to move the ball forward. Fair play. Will be good this season rotating to keep him fresh.

Most intense villa I've seen in ages. Why didn't we do that against Ipswich?
-
I know it's a clear shot but he's got two hands to it. The ball should go anywhere but behind him on the goal line. Generally palmed over the bar. Lettuce hands played well well though otherwise tbf

A midfielder that runs up and down the pitch! Closing players down and good with the ball. To think at villa we've been so used to the midfielder that hasn't got those energy levels and is happy marking space/zones. Hopefully our other midfielders take note and get a bit fitter!

As a Holte End ST holder, it's been annoying that the past few home games have seen the away team turn us around at kick off. Shooting towards the Holte first half. However yesterday, Burton took the kickoff, which must've meant Terry won the toss and decided to shoot towards the Holte first half. I wonder if this is a new thing now? Start quick and get a lead? Get the Holte buzzing from the start? It's coincided with the winning streak?

This is spot on.
-
For Goalkeepers yes. Wouldn't do it for outfield players as they'd be hacking players down all the time. soft though. Never a red
-
Yeah for the huge sums of money we've chucked at it we're piss poor. The worst side I've seen were Cardiff under Warnock - and they're pretty much par with us in the table. doesnt help shipping out your three summer signings costing 20m y Jan though! What a mess.

We're looking to rely on a striker that doesn't score goals.
-
Suggest you take a look at how Leicester won a league last season, and how both Atelico Madrid and Dortmund have done well in the champions league over the past years. Of which Arsenal haven't got passed the second round. Theres room for the style of footy if you have the right players. Like us under MON. Just only you need to fit and use your squad.

Palace only 28% possession tonight. I'd be fuming.
-
You see loads of high scoring championship games. We never score! Why????
-
It's HT mate. If you want definitive scores and tables wait until 5pm. Also results going our way to achieve what? Playoffs?
-
Yorke was great. Watch the season reviews, so good.
-
So does this mean the prices will go up? If you didn't get the freeze? I did, but they can't be increasing the prices surely?
-
Two fans behind me just went into the default mode of shouting "pass it" every time he got the ball. Yeah, at time he does too much, but I like individual runs/goals. That's why he's exciting to watch.

The laws were changed this season to get rid of the triple jeopardy punishment on Goalkeepers for bringing down a player when through on a goal. A peno is deemed enough punishment. Before it was a pen, red card, and suspension. I think the law is on a trial for two seasons. Still red cards for outfield players. So even now Phil Dowd is still a bellend.
-
You want to see obsession mate, head over to other football and the Westwood thread. Still going strong even after hes left.
-
Why is this guy anywhere near the club?
-
"The next Pochettino". Imagine if we appointed him when he first moved to England? He didn't do an interview in English until he went to Spurs - he would have been hounded from day 1.
-
We've gone from choosing between loads of attackimg players, to relying on Bjarnsson and Bacuna off the bench.
-
His goalkeeper signing policy is baffling
-
Bjarsnson comes on for Lansbury.
