Maybe three at the back is being considered. Didnt Martinez do it at Wigan last season? Forren, Fonte, Yoshi... with Clyne and Shaw playing wing back. Almost an old skool 3-5-2. It did look to me like we were playing 4 4 2 yesterday, with Jay and Rickie up top.

Wenger was criticized by the fans for spunking 15 million on a player for the future. One AOC. Ambitious clubs will do that.

I have an unbeaten away record this season.. went to Fulham and Villa. I'm going to Wigan. In fact Ive only ever seen one defeat away from home and that was Bristol City (and that technically was at home coz I live in Bristol . Went to Millwall, Coventry and City last season. So I guess we're due a defeat

Also hang around the dug outs during the warm ups, you normally get a few. Also when the game is just about to start

With Pochetinno in now... you can kiss this one goodbye. His teams are aggressive "we're coming for you"

Punch will be getting some grief every time he pops to the loo

As the premier league becomes a powerful global brand, it makes perfect business sense to exploit that

Legendary chants tonight

He's a bar stard ... but hes our bas tard

Fair point but maybe todays not the day

.... think he'll do well

A true Saint.. up there with Markus and MLT IMO. Never be forgotten

Gutted... on the face of it, madness. But I guess theres more to this than meets the eye... Couldn;t attract the players? Current players don't think Adkins is up to it? Either way, cant help but having a sneaky admiration for Cortese, knowing the **** he'll get for this

Coz he's ****. Discuss

Punch on the radio when asked about his contract.... " Im happy here, thats all im gonna say" wahoooo

Yeah we were good... maybe something to do with the Villa stewards were pretty relaxed about us standing all game?

Boruc starting to show why he is likely to be in goal for the rest of the season. Thought the defence were good first half, very nervy 2nd. Yoshi in particular made some terrible decisions. Hoiveld turned far too easily, yet still Villa couldnt score. Shaw brilliant. J Rod was quick and perfect for counter attacking 2nd half, but he's in the premiership now, missed 2 one on ones with the keeper... not good enough. Some will say confidence but he scored against Chelsea in similar positions. Felt Villa deserved a point for their 2nd half improvement. Was f**kin freezing today

Watching football isn't about solely winning, or we'd all happily be in league 2 beating teams 4 nil all season. Its about watching the football at its pinnacle of quality. Sorry you just don't get that in the championship. The gap in quality is much bigger than I was expecting

Cheers

He used "love the bones of him" about Lambert when he dropped him. Not being pedantic or anything. I've used "to be the best that we can be" a few times when training people at work, almost without thinking

Well at least put some photos up then

Just watched Adkins and Morgans press conferences. Someone on here was saying after the Norwich game that Adkins sounded pretty down on Gazza and thought it likely he'd be dropped. I feel the opposite now, I think he'll play. Adkins was bigging him up. But it was Morgan that convinced me. He said "Im sure he'll (Gazza) will make some great saves on Saturday". He tried to change it to "if he plays" but said it all for me.
