I don't think he needs hyping up, you only have to see him play, and what he brings, to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about scrapping the barrel mate...your sample size is less than the amount of men in the toilet block I take a pee in a half time in the Holte End. We have polls in there as well about the game so far that are just as meaningless and insufficient sample size. You have to stop embarrassing yourself. Enjoy the signing of Buendia! You are ignoring the fact that the team does play better with grealish in the centre. Smith played him there the in 3 of the last 4 games. Whilst it is a relatively small sample that is probably most of the regular posters on this website who voted. So people who have informed opinions 40-20 was the voting essentially 2/3 for grealish in the centre. The number of goals and assists don't matter to me because whilst being outwide is better for his stats and I think part of it is just bum being streaky him. In the centre is overwhelmingly better for the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a load of old tosh, some of these internet writers ,write. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted June 5, 2021 Author Share Posted June 5, 2021 Where does everyone think he’ll play? As a 10? If so, where does Sanson fit in? Or, will we sure up the central midfield area by playing him on the right and playing two ‘8’s. And before people say it, I know it will offer us the flexibility to do both, but what is our best team now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the Norwich and Arsenal fans were making me laugh but you’re the cherry on the icing on the cake tonight. Please tell me more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF - it was the only time in hawkeye's history that it failed - and then also VAR did not get involved. I realised at the time that it was a helping hand from the heavens, maybe Deano's old man, and it's unlike any other bit of luck by some way in that it's high tech which failed. So yes, it's why we are where we are, but no it's not the only reason. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you can understand their disappointment. Yes but we were there as tourists. Pretty much any football person you talk to would say we should never have been there in the first place. Whereas for them it is their natural home. Edited June 5, 2021 by sidcow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alreadyexists Posted June 5, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 5, 2021 I think our lineup will be something like: Emi Cash Konsa Mings Targett McGinn Luiz Traore Buendia Grealish Watkins Although I imagine we’ll also add a one or maybe two of other faces. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its tough losing your best player.....we should know, with Dwight Yorke, Ashley Young, James Milner & Gareth Barry. Commiserations, but I am sure Norwich will bounce back and Invest our monies well....best of luck to them for this season, I sincerely hope they stay up. Are you kidding? Have you been in their forum? You are way off if you think Norwich fans are being dignified about this. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villa87 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Will it be: Sanson McGinn Buendia Traore Grealish Watkins And there are a shed load of other options with Luiz, Nakamba, Ghazi, Carney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would work. The only reason we looked so weak in the middle without Jack is because McGinn would try to get forward leaving massive gaps. Earlier in the season when both luiz and Mcginn both sat deep it worked well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBlack Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 You know we're not selling Grealish because there is ZERO chance Buendia picks us over Arsenal if we're selling him. Martinez definitely definitely helped do some talking up of Villa, and I could not be happier to see the salty bitterness coming from one of the so called Super League teams. Brilliant. Brilliant. Brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
