  1. Nope, Ansel didn't say that. Ansel Moreau said, "Aston Villa pushed and pushed for players but have failed. They are now done in the transfer market unless something spectacular changes. Emery has grown frustrated with players not convinced of project."

    Ooh, you are awful .... but I like you.
  3. I guess ....apart from nigh on triple the wages and actual trophies on his CV.
  4. Phillips will have to go into training so that he is the right weight for training.
  5. When you are calling Jaime Redknapp to be your voice of reason, it's probably time to give up.
  6. If, by your own reckoning,it is all Southgate's fault if we lose a match, is it equally all his fault if we win a match? It should be surely?
  7. I think it shows a bewilderingly astounding lack of imagination and/or a complete lack of knowledge of football to be unable to come up with any reason bar Southgate for not winning a football match. Kudos for that. I think I would be an awful England manager but even I could come up with more than that.
  8. Indeed they did. I hope Southgate goes all in later on if we get that far ... obviously though, with not conceding goals a thing too. .... and when I said "Southgate has done fine so far." that conversation was specifically about this tournament, so using past results or saying "he hasn't" doesn't really follow. We are through. On to the next round! .... where it might all go tits up.... or well. Oh, the joy and uncertainty of tournament football!
  9. We beat Croatia twice in our last two games against them. Not bad. We have one win a piece with Belgium in our last two games ..... and Italy two draws in normal time, losing one merely by the lottery of penalties. ....so what you are saying is not strictly true.
  10. Really? I'm pretty sure Tom13 heavily implied, when asked what more we could ask for from Southgate, that Gareth should be "not spreading negativity and fear throughout the squad." Hmmm? Who to believe? You, who seems to be using facts and stuff, or someone who seems to want to paint Southgate as someone managing England like the Incredible Hulk on a rampage. It's a thorny one.
  11. Like most of this thread, fictional.
  12. I'm English and I don't get it. Southgate has done fine so far. Not every half will be a dazzling spectacle of football. That isn't how tournament football works.
  13. Presumably to alleviate its own boredom?
  14. Yet, being promoted was good for business and those loans helped that enormously. Staying up was excellent for business and hopefully, the Barkley loan will help us stay up again. The worst thing for business is relegation, so it's best to look at the bigger picture, rather than worry abut a player doing well for us for a season and then being worth more.
  15. Isn't that really for a different thread though? I don't see how that follows at all. A football team is a forever ongoing project.
  16. One reason not to sack a manager is for letting someone train with them and for possibly weighing up options. Unless perhaps that someone is Jeanette Krankie. .......and just when did "experience" become a dirty word? I missed that memo.
  17. If Samba does get signed, then I'll welcome him as he will now be a Villa player. Being hostile to his arrival or using it as a further excuse to want Bruce sacked just seems a tad counterproductive.
  18. Wait, it'll come, we'll spank someone soon.
  19. To be fair to Di Matteo, he also gained automatic promotion to the Premiership for WBA ...... and an FA Cup for Chelsea. ...... and Steve Bruce has achieved promotion to the Prem 4 times..... which is quite a few.
  20. 1) Refreshing. 2) Exciting. 3) Forwardlooking. 4) Faciallyastute. 5) Unfloccinaucinihilipilificating.
