Point being it's got a lot more relevance than our's
-
I mean half our fanbase does it about something we won 41 years ago so...
-
I completely agree. Just my point that Acuna has 360 degrees of tenacity
-
Not for me. Solid but absolute liability due to his temperament. Nothing against having a s*ithouse in the team but this guy is another level. Four red cards last season in all comps. Three red cards in under 2000 La Liga minutes last season and it's not as if these were mistimed challenges like Konsa that one year, was stupidity/petulance/over-aggression. Also limited on the ball. Personally usually positive about signings, but don't really see the upside here.
-
Good signing!
-
hmmm "pathetic" and "shite" would beg to differ - let alone on Twitter and the match thread.
-
One bad game and Villa fans turn on an incredibly reliable player. Yawn.
-
Don't know why anyone cares about the result really. Mings injury ruined it and we were never going to win anyway. Trust Emery to sort it out. Toughest opening fixture there is minus City. Atmosphere and pressing just unplayable, especially after losing your organiser and basically captain. Some pathetic comments in this thread.
-
Well yes but that's pure speculation. The pain wasn't just physical. He's done incredibly well to come back from two ACLs before and gone onto play for England and he's probably absolutely devastated about not being able to be part of Europe and Euros.
-
Says he's out with "surgery" on Flashscore. Not ideal if so

https://www.theplayerstribune.com/posts/aaron-ramsdale-premier-league-arsenal-soccer-england Thoroughly enjoyed this article. Think a few of our lot could learn a thing or two about how the players see us when they get abused: "Yeah, you had a few idiots on the Internet chatting shit. Who cares? The real supporters have your back." So many sad parts of the article that really show how footballers are just not the robots people want them to be.

Massive smirk on your face typing this I bet

McGinn buzzing

I suspect sometimes Cash and Digne/Moreno will compete for one spot in the team. If Cash plays, I think we end up playing the three with Torres/Mings covering as a defensive-minded, narrow left-back and Konsa covering Cash. If Moreno plays, I think we drop Cash and play Konsa as a defensive right-back to cover a marauding Moreno. Just not sure it's quite a back five or three, think it'll be like a back 3.5 with the other "wing-back" more of an attacking player.

Carlos at fault against Walsall as well. Feels like he's fourth choice and not entirely sure where the minutes will be coming from if I'm honest. Bit concerning. -
Has always been incredibly fit (highest running stats in team). Just a solid, high-risk/high-reward player who will have bad games and good games due to the way he plays.
-
Excellent comment. The Pau take was purely based on his facial expressions tbh. Complete speculation on my part.
-
Saw The Guardian suggest he was "previously skeptical" about joining Villa. I mean, I get it, but with Torres also not looking too enthused, why do we think that is? Weather, club stature, location? Leverkusen is hardly anywhere to right home about I must say.
-
He doesn't pass the ball when he should a lot of the time. Is that really that disagreeable? When he does he actually often links up well.
-
He can be very good when he wants to
-
Said it before and I know it's a friendly but he is one of the most selfish players in the league, especially for someone so good at link-up (and not so great at dribbling!)
-
Just a really nice bloke
-
What now? Surely has to lose his place but I don't really want him to. Not a right-back. I get we need to improve but Mings, Konsa, probably Carlos and Torres are all strong Europa-level defenders. All would improve teams like Spurs. Does one leave?
