Sulberto21 Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 We're already according to some player lists that other posters have posted approx 6/7 players down. I'd rather not lose too many that were starting games. Summer 21/22 is when the likes of Samatta Trez etc should be made available. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great for the game and player safety imho. I dont mind ad breaks at all. I disagree. Before you know it, we’ll have american situations where ads are interrupted to show you football. (Big stretch, I know). It all takes the tempo our of the game. No doubt someone will find this to be profitable and UEFA/FIFA/FA will make this permanent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhan_Zhuang Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 We cannot afford to let too many go due to the congestion of fixtures and the new substitute rules next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewieGriffin Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Nyland, Jota, Hogan, Lansbury and Bree should be the first 5 out. Last 4 are draining a wage, and Nyland is turd. Everyone else Id probably keep for squad depth if they allow 9 subs named again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madness, every change thats being made in recent years is to benefit the elite, its becoming more like Formula1 every year, every sport should be about winning and if that's impossible then whats the point. VAR will stay, 5 subs, breaks etc will stay, next will be specialist kickers allowed to come on for free kicks, corners and penalties. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great for the game and player safety imho. I dont mind ad breaks at all. VAR... five subs... drinks breaks... Three of the four horsemen of the (football) apocalypse as far as I’m concerned. I’m not sure what the fourth will be – a European Super League perhaps – but when it arrives I can see myself sticking to Villa history books and non-league games, while leaving the bloated “product” to its target audiences. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who will be the first Sky pundit to refer to the “third period” etc.? No doubt it will be wrapped up in analytics and made to look very progressive (“Look at the amount of goals they concede in quarter one compared to quarter four...”). And then it will be just a small step to four official quarters. Yep, the marketing men always find a way. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvfcRigo82 Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 So far Sarkic, Green & Chester have left. Drinkwater & Reina returned to parent clubs. Would it be fair to say we will also see the departures of Lansbury, Jota, Hogan, & Taylor in this window? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
