Now they get one and decide to go play a behind closed doors friendly because the players need matches to stay fresh Here we go. The first f*****g complaint. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, 1) this isn't a Villa complaint, this applies to all the teams, 2) check my post history, I'm 99% positive about just about everything, and 3) I like watching football, specifically Aston Villa playing football. I don't enjoy no football in the summer, I don't enjoy international breaks and I don't enjoy an unnecessary 2 week winter break, sue me 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather just watch competitive Villa games. Perhaps you're not interested in that and you're only interested in seeing particular players, fine, knock yourself out, but I'm not a Coutinho fan, or a Buendia fan, I'm an Aston Villa fan. Hell, I'd have probably watched the friendly if it had been available to watch, but it was not. I'd rather every player available for every match, but given a choice between missing a few players for a game and missing the game altogether I know what I'd choose. Also also, I really don't think it's that big a deal, I was only really pointing out the hypocrisy of the whole thing, and saying I think it's ridiculous. I don't care about Klopp and Guardiola complaining their players are too tired and they're being forced to play their backup players who only cost £50m a pop. 3 hours ago, Xela said: We all know the real reason for the winter break - lucrative friendlies in Qatar, UAE, China, Malaysia, etc This I agree with. This is the reason for the break. Give it a few years and all the leagues will sync something up so the big boys can get a bit of extra cash. The only losers are the fans, and no-one really cares about them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
