It isn't. It's a mad idea to even contemplate signing him. A waste of wages and a waste of a squad number in a hope he's fit for 4 games of the season.

CVByrne Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 We've a good fixture list to for first half of season and a tough run in. Joke that we start and end the season playing away from home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 3 away games from opening 4 including Liverpool and Newcastle. What a joke. 2 legs of ECL playoff in there too. Will be playing catch up this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 I wonder, with the summer music events held at Villa Park during the closed season we specifically asked for an away fixture to give extra time for the pitch to be prepared etc? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Really don't want to be in the position West Ham were in this season when April rolls round, or we could be in big trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good call yes. It would make sense for that to be the case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 If Emery can mastermind another hoodoo breaking victory on the opening day, theres a great chance the barcodes will be bottom by the end of August. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be playing catch up this season Everton, Palace, Brighton, Luton, West Ham and Fulham is a decent enough home run up to December at least so there's where we need to strengthen to make sure we win those given some will potentially be Sunday games after europa Thursday night games.

WallisFrizz Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 (edited) 1st leg Europa play off then away at Burnley, 2nd leg Europa play off then away at Liverpool. Gonna be knackered by mid September. Edited June 15, 2023 by WallisFrizz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna be knackered by mid September. Most of our potential european games then have a premier league game on the Sunday. We could be away to likes of Brentford and Bournemouth after europa midweeks which won't be easy at all. Why I despair at people claiming Luiz will be sold now we've signed Tielemans. We need a squad of 20 senior internationals and then introduce likes of Archer on top of that as they'll all be getting decent minutes if they stay fit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferguson1 Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 If true, we apparently requested an away fixture first and last game? Is that to let our pitch recover longer from summer events and then finally to start the North Stand work earlier in May 24? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
