  1. There is a reason it’s not a picture of the north stand. I love villa park but the north needs to go if we stay and I think the cancellation points towards leaving. Other than the north the biggest thing for me is sorting out the acoustics which probably means the roof of each stand. You can sit in the other stands and people in the holte will say it was loud and you can hardly hear them.
  2. Man United, Liverpool and Newcastle according to the press. I think Newcastle and maybe Chelsea have players out for long periods. The rest are just niggles.
  3. The wall issue won’t change my opinion on him but it reinforces what I’ve seen from him regarding his general smart play. Other than that I do think he has quality and has played his part this season. Would sign him for £5-10 million as a bargain and a risk not the £30 mil that has been agreed. Thank but no thanks.
  4. I really like him, he’s got quality. He’s more similar to Ramsey than Bailey. That was essentially our back up choices in the top 4 so more than happy with his part in it.
  5. I dont think hes a system player but you do have to actually pass to him and make space for him. Southgate loves Kane because he drops in giving another body in the midfield but also allows the wingers to be the outlet and hope the pace can unlock the other team hence why hes continually used Sterling and Rashford during his time.
  6. Chillwell, Gallagher and Rashford were shit, Watkins and foden hardly got a touch, thought Konsa, Gordon and Bowen did well. Standard Southgate, boring slow football in a defensive shape. No idea how to change it.

    He’s chaos, if he can control it he’ll be an absolute handful.
  8. That mistake by the Ajax player may be the luck he needs to get him going
  9. I’d just tell him to calm down, he looks dangerous
  10. I think im okay with it being a red the more annoying thing is that if the ref doesnt give it I dont think VAR do.
  11. They were pathetic today and if Everton had any idea what to do in the final third they would have lost. Its a miracle they are 6th and not because of the injuries.
  12. Completely agree, my hope is the stats show that he has the quality to do it. He’s bordering on terrible at the moment.
  13. While I agree Daiby is still up there in stats in terms of goals and assists. But the eye test says he’s just not doing it at the moment. I hope he has that one good game that sparks him into life, maybe that needs some luck first.
  14. Strangely I have some respect for May solely based on what came before and after her. Was she the best of an absolutely horrendous bunch?
  15. Not a good performance in general but wow the ref was bad
  16. Pleased for them both, hope they shine.
  17. The Rashford interview is hilarious to me. Saying he is committed to United and you shouldn’t say otherwise when his performances and actions off the pitch are the actual evidence. Is this the 3rd time in 5 years he’s downed tools. Even in the two good periods I remember watching him thinking he was lazy and wasteful but luckily the goals came. If I were United and PSG offer to take him I’d bite their hands off.
  18. Just watched it, I didn’t get the hype with the books but enjoyed the first film. Part of that might just be how good it looks and feels from Denis. Thought the first hour and half is slow but it’s ends very well, looks great and Austin Butler absolutely smashes it. Im not sure I want Messiah and especially Children of Dune I found it an absolute mess after the first book.
  19. Bailey is class now but I still don’t think he has hit Grealish level in terms of chaos caused. Happy to agree that Grealish output in stats isn’t and wasn’t always great but he was a joy to watch (as is Bailey). It’s just sad that he isn’t playing like that anymore. Everyone loves a maverick and other than a flick against Belgium Southgate has done the same thing to him. Would I take him back in the hope he’s still that player yes, for the money no.
  20. I think it’s a fair point. We’ve been an upward trajectory for 4 years and have been sold out or close to pretty much every game since Covid. Ive had this conversation with spurs, Liverpool, United mates, when was the last time they had a truly shit team, one that is most likely to lose and get relegated. Try spending over £100 to get to a game to watch that and justify it every week. We need a good team to get good attendances without you don’t have them.
  21. Agree with both points, biologically its a possible driver. You then have the ones in powerful positions where it is about abuse and power. But you then have the social outcasts/people who have always been loners or bad with the opposite sex where there is an oppotunity through vulnerability to get what they potentially have never had. Ulitmately I think you can ignore the biological driver its a society problem, it was once acceptable to wed a minor luckily times move on. The abuse mentaility of it however I dont know how we deal with that as a society.
  22. It was as good a 0-0 you can see to be fair
  23. The 6 points in 6 weeks that we gifted them is what has made that difference.
  24. I was genuinely starting to get concerned for Roy, he’s an old man but now looks old. I’m glad he’s gone for his own sake. Hopefully not what put him in hospital though.
