MessiWillSignForVilla Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 37 minutes ago, Keyblade said: What was Glenn Whelan even doing taking a penalty? That had to be divine intervention. I reckon we must've been cursed by Whelan. He scored the equalising goal in that 2-2 draw v Stoke whilst we were at our highest point this century, which triggered our 10-12 game winless streak to miss out on the CL that year, and ultimately sent us spiralling for years to come, only to miss a penalty for us years later at what may have been one of our lowest moments since, which got Bruce sacked and triggered our revival. I think Glenn Whelan may be an ancient deity that we should worship... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted January 26, 2021 Moderator Share Posted January 26, 2021 15 mins in the game and Talksport have just rolled out the “who can they get better” line and then doubled down on the stupidity with “Eddie Howe got Bournemouth relegated”.... morons.

penguin Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Newcastle are a joke. No courage in their play whatsoever, set-up against us and Leeds today as if they are couple of divisions below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but "what can Steve Bruce do when Almiron doesnt track his runner" words of Danny Mills. Christ I am actually getting annoyed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shomin Geki Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 It's literally like watching a 2021 team versus a team transported from 2005. I half expect the camera to whip pan suddenly to Bowyer and Dyer mid-scrap. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his mind, if they're above you in the table, they're basically prime Barcelona and we need to play accordingly. Was always baffling seeing Villa go into games against the top 6 in the Championship like we were the underdogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewieGriffin Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Bruce is a coward of a manager. Terrified of losing, sets his team(s) up accordingly and that transmits to his players. That system when you're an established PL side at home to a newly promoted team is disgraceful, yet there are still holes everywhere when Leeds turn the ball over. Fraud of a manager with no idea of the modern game, modern player, modern media or modern fan. I feel a bit sorry for their fans, but then I sort of absolutely **** love every moment of this 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Eddie Howe would be a decent appointment i suppose. But i think any manager will struggle under Mike Ashley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 The mental gymnastics are real by Danny Mills. Newcastle are awful, their players attitude is awful, they don't press, they don't tackle, they don't engage the ball from the back, they don't get out to challenge for headers and they don't commit men forward. None of this though is the MANAGERS fault though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 They'll be just four points above the relegation zone if Fulham beat Brighton tomorrow, which isn't the most unlikely of outcomes considering how poor Brighton are at home. Next six games are Everton, Palace, Southampton, Chelsea, Man Utd, and Wolves; wouldn't be surprised if they're in the bottom three after those. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Woeful manager. The thing about Bruce teams is yes they'll be many men behind the ball but they just watch each other and stand around like statues. I saw when he was ours and I'm seeing the same thing again at the barcodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
