WHAT A ****ING TURNAROUND. Incredible, we looked utterly ****e and clueless for the entire first half then came out like a totally different side. Sims was ****ing brilliant, bemusing he couldn't get a game for Reading.

Spurs playing very well tbf

Getting thoroughly outclassed

Seconded.

What?

Eh?

Eh?

Interesting analysis from across the pond and hard to disagree that Redmond is somehow a major symbol that is misguided.

Crucial win. We look just about good enough to stay up. Just. Again.

Yeah I'd go with that. Apart from Ings who is always injured for Austin and possibly Lemina who is always injured for Romeu that is basically the best side we are capable of putting out, and it really doesn't look very good.

New manager bounce then transfer window so **** that if our aim was to get relegated it could barely be improved upon.

Love the optimism but worth noting we haven’t rolled in a way that saw us beat Arsenal away in league football since 1987.

No need to apologise and all of your assumptions are wrong. Night night.

...

"Luck me" pal? I still get letters with the scales of justice printed on them on a virtually daily basis and my fine is up to 6 figures. Still ain't paying up though.

What manager in his right mind would not want less players in his squad? Too many players is only going to interfere with the manager's ability to focus properly on the players he has in his squad and his ability to work which players are **** and which are good. It's obvious and it's why we are always hearing top managers like Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp moaning in post match interviews about how their squads are too big and that they wish that they had less player's to choose from.

"Amo" Bring Me The Horizon. Superb album.

I got a parking fine or 'PCN' as they like to call them now about 20 years ago. I just ignored it.

I'd like us to buy the right targets then sell the players they are supposed to replace, not sell the players we want to replace and then not replace them because we couldn't secure the right targets.

I just do not see this argument. Some squad trimming - crap like Hoedt - fine but letting decent players go - Cedric and Gabbiadini inparticular - and not replacing them has made us weaker, it's as simple as that. To weaken the squad in the situation we are in is a ridiculously dangerous thing to do.

Regardless, he'd still be a better option than nobody. We shipped him out and replaced him with nobody. Jury's out on nobody being better or worse than Long.

It always seems flat these days. Even walking to the ground there's no real sense of anticipation, no buzz. And leaving it's just shrug of the shoulder resignation.

That was awful. 1 star awful. Everything slow and ponderous and in front of an opposition defence given all the time in the world to be settled and organised. On the few occasions we got into shooting positions we seemed too scared/too reluctant to try. Carry on like that and this is only ending one way.

As you say never going to be as black and white as that but I'd go for win the league ONCE with carp 1 0 wins then onto entertainment and mid table finishes every season thereafter.

And it wasn't Villa, it was Everton.
