I think Jas has found a player n half there. not stealing Jas's thunder.....but I think Paul 154 has banged the drum for him too, a while back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I'm one of those who prefers a 6 and two 8's. With attacking full backs and the wingers given licence to roam. Hopefully for me we start with Buendia on the right and Jack on the left. Currently: Nakamba (6) Luiz (8) McGinn (8) (just for me over Sanson ATM) Ollie jack and Buendia up front. Naturally depends on who we bring in after this. I think we'd be more balanced with a 6 and two 8's. Man City play that way and Liverscum at their best play that way. I feel it gives more us a more solid base from which to attack. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The attributes available in a squad are driving factors of how a team sets up, and its not always easy for another team to emulate. Its horses for courses and you have to max out the opportunities available. as an Example Sir Ron always had a workrate mantra and subsequently all his players could work hard, not to be under estimated IMV....and that worked for him. Let’s take this to the transfer window thread What do you think of Sander Berge? (Buendia - class signing ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, all credit to Paul. I wasn’t aware of him beforehand but looked him up and he certainly looks a player Think we should move for him before the “big clubs” do… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshVilla Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Baffling posts from a portion of Norwich fans on social media. Let's not forget that, when we had a fully fit squad, we were knocking on the door of the top 6. Even having missed Grealish for a third of the the season (and let's be honest, any club will feel the effects of missing a player of his calibre), we still finished closer to the European places than we did the bottom 3. I don't understand where this idea that they will be directly competing with us in terms of fighting relegation comes from. I know that they probably didn't watch much Premier League football last season, but surely they'll have seen at least some headlines about how much Villa have progressed. I get the disappointment of losing your best player at a lower fee than you'd have liked, but the reactions are ridiculous. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knows absolutely nothing about football and is essentially nothing more than a performing hyena for the braindead. I'm fairly certain he isn't all there. Dead behind the eyes.

With a straight face, they will say Jack Grealish is overrated which tells you everything you need to know about their understanding of football.

PieFacE Posted June 6, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 6, 2021 I'd just ignore what fans from other clubs are saying. Just as I'd expect them to ignore my opinion on their football club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, I do think the credit for Watkins' development goes to the fella that signed him from Exeter for Brentford, not Deano. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if you watch, what made Sheff Utd ok and what makes Villa ok......There is a clear disparity in playing style, that would suggest, Villa will not follow Sheff Utd.....so sad for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
