  1. Maybe it's because it's a little more common in American sports, but it's not unusual for the head coach of a team to fire offensive coordinators or various other people that do the day to day management. Yes, it's partially to deflect the blame and ultimately, the manager/head coach is responsible for all things in the team, but over here, it's not unusual for the manager/head coach to fire some of his coordinators or assistants from season to season. Sometimes, they really are doing a poor job. Now, it's unusual to do it in the middle of the season, but it's not unheard of. I don't know. Maybe that's why I don't see it as such a huge deal
  2. Out of all of this, I just hope that Saturday is something different than the normal Villa drab
  3. He's worked with them successfully before and probably trusted them to do a similar job here. He is human afterall. Might be the case. He's been working with them since 2006. Hard to tell them to bugger off.
  4. That does make sense on Ned's part. Though it was a very dangerous game on his part to keep Jon close whilst still remaining friends with Robert. Though by the time of Jon Arryn's death, they hadn't seen each other in a while, so maybe not so dangerous?
  5. Am I missing something where Alyssa is Jon's mom? I've been rereading them but still haven't found these clues.
  6. Hell, I'd be happy to see any sort of change in the formation
  7. I can't wait to see your reaction when Antonio Conte is unveiled as the new manager next season Tears. Of happiness of course.
  8. As long as I never have to see 5 in the back again, I'll be happy
  9. I'd be incredibly surprised if Jon Snow is dead. We haven't even found out who his mother is. But I'm rereading DWD right now and I'm starting to feel bad for poor Quentyn. I hated him the first time around, but I pity him now.
  10. A slightly reasonable idea. If they were the ones who set up the team, that would explain a lot since that's been my biggest bone of contention with Lambert
  11. MH370 has nothing on this mystery
  12. All we need is a wedding and this will truly turn into GoT
  13. I would take a knife to my eyes if they did a whole season on Feast For Crows

    FIFA 14

    Thanks for the double knock on sam. Never used that before. Game is still pretty shite though. Par for the course for EA. Think I'm just going to avoid their games for a while.
  15. I would be incredibly surprised if Lambert was sacked
  16. Guzan Lowton Vlaar Clark Bertrand KEA Westwood Delph Albrighton Gabby Tonev What the hell. Like it matters who's going to be out there.
  17. Realistically, it won't matter too much who replaced Lambert. Might look a little different, a few places up or maybe some "effective" football that gets results. But the problem at Villa has taken deep root for the last 4 or 5 years. Until there is a change of ownership (and even then who knows what the new owners want to do), I'm afraid just more of the same water treading.
  18. No doubt he will start against soton because of their high line. The man that can't be moved.
  19. Could've gone over in the box there but stayed up. Like seeing that.

    Grant Holt

    Not too bad. Really should've done better on the Westwood pass. One of the few players that know what they're doing though. But hard to judge because of the terrible formation.
  21. Westwood in a Baker thread. Sheesh. Not like Westwood could pass it to anyone else though could he? Did set up the best chance of the game but Holt missed it
  22. You know what's not a good idea? Flying scissor tackle right on the edge of the box. Same. Dumb. Mistakes.
  23. Glad he really occupied those defenders
  24. Man. It's like you predict it just based on the formation....
  25. But Palace are scoring machines! Why wouldn't you start with 3 center backs?!
