  1. How the manager sets us up and the tactics does influence the result
  2. Is that not a really good return for Brentford? They just got promoted to the PL and they don't have a big budget. Just over a point per game is PL safety. I would suspect everyone at Brentford and all Brentford fans are very happy with that
  3. He cost them 5m plus a potential 5m in bonuses. I think he has well paid them back on the transfer fee. He was a huge part of them getting promoted. Promoted teams are not going to come up with PL quality strikers but in fairness to the guy he is earning his wages
  4. I was surprised with that, I thought that with the relationship between Maupay and Deano meant he was nailed on to join us
  5. I agree, the only thing I like about signing him is that it would be funny to see the meltdown on Toon. I wouldn't actually like to sign him. I quite fancy Webster from Brighton. I wanted us to push the signing through when we were interested in him when he was at Bristol
  6. Sky saying that Newcastle are competing with one other PL club for CB Carlos. It would be funny if Villa signed him and he said he took less money at Villa than signing for Toon
  7. So we need to upgrade both Mings and Konsa?
  8. I didn't say Luiz wasn't at fault too. I asked if you thought Mings could have done more. I do believe he could. As Roy Keane said (not sure of the exact wording) but Mings could have tried to take Bruno out
  9. Emi has had quite a few links to Man Utd last month, he also had links to other clubs in the summer
  10. Maybe a new thread on "Fringe players trying to get into the 1st team"
  11. Even if City were happy to accept a 50m loos, FFP would not allow City to make a 50m loss in such a short period of time
  12. He may not have been at fault for the goal following Sanson's pass but do u not think he could have done more to stop Bruno?
  13. Fulham have scored 19 goals since last Tuesday. Albion have scored 19 goals since August
  14. I doubt there is a way back to Saints for Ings.
  15. I understand that but that is not what is happening. We have the youngest or just about the youngest 1st in the PL. Last week we purchased Kerr Smith so we are still investing in the youth players and spending millions on each of them i.e. we are going for real quality potential. But to move up the league Gerrard said he needs some older players and he got Digne in who is 28. Coutinho is a loan but if we do buy him he will be 29 and he is without question a world class player. 7th looks like a European spot this season and I expect that is the aim. Also, every position we finish up the league is worth 3.5m extra in direct revenue plus the extra revenue from sponsors and the increased profile. We are a million miles away from being left with an ageing playing staff that is not adding value to the club. It is extremely difficult to get the balance between youth and experience right but it appears that is that Gerrard and Purslow are trying to do
  16. So the conspiracy is that Gerrard wants Villa to finish as high as possible in the league he can get us so that he looks good and he can then leave for another job. What a cunning plan by a football manager
  17. Another couple before h/t would be nice. 5-0 is a good h/t score
  18. Andy Carroll to score the winner for Burnley while relegating Toon with his first goal for the club having signed in Jan and immediately picking up an injury which kept him out of the team till May.
  19. Fulham not on money tonight. Took them till the 10th minute to score.
