  1. Gerrard has to get Coutinho and Buendia in the same 11. If it means dropping Ramsey, so be it.
  2. The more things change, the more they stay the same. We are maxed out as a unit. Our level is about where we are are. Mid table. Classic Aston Villa. Our best performer on the day given the hook because he isn't "The Scottish Meatball". We were arguably unlucky conceding those goals, but as soon as we let in the first, total paranoia swept through the team. We still have a weak mentality. When the going gets tough for Villa, our players panic as a reflex. And we employ a team psychologist? They are taking the piss.
  3. The shelf life of some of these players has been reached.
  4. We are terrible really. Just so far away from consistent good form or even a sense of progressing.
  5. @dAVe80 I just notied you posted the exact same tweet, just before I did!

    Memory Lane

    When I was in high school I worked at a coffee shop. It was a chain of shops around Boston called Coffee Connection. They had their own roasting facility and would deliver a couple of times a week. We would help unload the truck. You had to bear hug these big burlap bags and I remember feeling the heat from the beans. The owner would travel the world to source the beans, and we had the best. Guatemalan Antigua, Sumatran, Jamaican Blue Mountain (before Hurricane Hugo), Kenyan, Colombian Supremo, Brazilian, Hawaiian Kona (my favorite). The aroma from the beans was unbelievable. We didn't know how good we had it. They let us take home free coffee and a lot of it. Boston was the last major US market that Starbuck's hadn't been able to enter. Coffee Connection was their primary obstacle. They eventually bought the owner out and all the stores turned into Starbuck's who even then had terrible coffee. The owner signed a non-competition agreement and couldnt sell coffee in Massachusetts for 25 years. But he's back roasting again. I tried some and it's really good!
  7. Iran have Satan 1 and Satan 2. No pressure on their players then.
  8. Clearly the common denominator is England is really boring..
