Steele or Sanchez? Webster or Colwill? Veltman or Gross?
I'm going:
Steele
Gross
Dunk
Colwill
Estupinian
Ally Mac
Caicedo
March
Buonanotte
Mitoma
Welbeck
No, they're only four points ahead and we have FOUR games in hand, one of which is tonight against Forest. Win that and we're one point behind with three in hand.
Villa's remaining games are:
Man utd (a)
Wolves(a)
Spurs(h)
Liverpool(a)
Brighton(h)
I think it's unlikely that we'll go into...
That's more like it! Although, it's a little sad that they point out he'll be the Ally Mac replacement. I just don't want to accept he's going :tantrum:
I've thought for a while now - based off historical context - that we'll need to get in the low 60's to qualify for Europe. So another 11-14 points should be enough to qualify us for Europe.
These are the remaining fixtures of the teams in the fight for 5th - 7th
Spurs
Man Utd (A)
Liverpool...
I thought he had a good game. I thought he did well against Chelsea too. He's an excellent keeper who is decent with the ball at his feet, just not as good as Steele.
It makes me sad to think we could lose such a good keeper because he's merely decent rather than excellent with the ball at...
I don't think Bloom needs to break his recruitment model to keep RDZ happy, and it's not what he says in the press conference either. We just need to bring in some depth whether like you say it's free/cheap senior players like Lallana, Welbeck or Veltman, or if he spends a bit more but still...
Taken from his post match press conference. The part in question is from about 3:09 in to the video:
He is of course correct. We all know it so lets see what the summer brings.
Yeah, wan bissaka played annoyingly well. Even Antony was tracking back and doubling up on Mitoma. They had a very specific plan for us and carried it out diligently. Which is what I'm taking as the compliment. They didn't even try to take us on toe to toe.
I hope he gets rousing support all game. He looked broken after he missed.
On the penalty taking front I was hoping sanchez would take one. He hits the ball with great power and accuracy. Pick a side, ping it in the corner, bob's your(penalty scoring) uncle.
We gave it a good go. It's testament to where we are as a team and a club that Ten Hag set Man Utd up to neutralise us.
Ten Hag a man whose philosophy and coaching career to date has been about dominating the ball and building from the back set Man Utd - the biggest club in the country - up...
I don't know. I think I'll have to self quarantine for 7 days. I get my official pcr test result tomorrow. If it's positive I have to contact my local council. They'll let me know.
This is for Japan though. No idea what the rules are in England.
Thanks.
I'll be watching the final on t.v too though. Flight tickets back to England are extortionate at the moment and I've already booked flights home for August.
Mine were racing sky high but I started coming down with a cold on thursday evening. Took a home pcr test this morning before going to work and apparently I've got covid. That's put a bit of a dampener on things.
That's awful.
Awful rule and awful by the parents of the opposition. What kind of person complains about underage players playing in an underage tournament? Just so their team can go through on a technicality. It's pathetic.
It's also detrimental to the development of the players but that's...
