  1. I’m not watching this, but when Carlos played at the end of last season I was reminded how good his long ball delivery is.
  2. If Diego is getting bald he’d match Matty Cash. Love them both btw
  3. I’m drunk now but just felt the need to login to VT to say how much I adore Unai. Wonderful this internet
  4. Just checked with Transfermarkt, and Arsenal now have the highest net spend on transfers of all clubs in Europe (last five years). It’s not all Arteta magic, The Kroenke’s have been spending like drunken sailors.
  5. Any Premier League player who doesn’t spend every free day in Dubai gets respect from me.
  6. I can’t even wet the bed anymore, all dried up inside.
  7. I was expecting another Asensio outcome, seems I was wrong. Very high profile signing this.
  8. Ornstein just confirmed it’s done
  9. Playing 4 centre-backs, isn’t that Pep’s new idea?
  10. All those spanish sources say things like ”unless a more attractive club arrives”. Sounds like ”someone come and get me please”. Doubt he’ll come to us.
  11. The whole article is worth reading anyway, seems very well researched as you’d expect from the brilliant Philippe Auclair. https://josimarfootball.com/2023/06/23/in-the-name-of-charity/
  12. Saint-Maximin, Adama Traore, Bailey … It looks like someone is pointing out the players with the worst decision making. Bernardo Silva and Luis Diaz are placed in the ”worst” quadrant.
  13. Isn’t all this quite similar to when Sheikh Mansoor decided to build the club around Guardiola? Appointing a whole structure from Barcelona, with Txiki Begiristain and other, to make things comfortable for Pep. That was Man City’s Spanish revolution and this looks like ours.
  14. 100% agree. In football these day the owners are the most important people at a club (which isn't good really). But we're lucky to have brilliant owners, who aren't only rich but also seem very smart and actively involved.
  15. What wouldn't be a demotion from being the CEO?
  16. Purslow has been much less visible since the Gerrard sacking, and it's not exactly a surprise he's gone now. Wish him well but can't pretend I'm sad he's out of the club.
  17. I’d be ecstatic with 6th and hopefully Europa League qualification. Chelsea will most likely be miles better next season and Spurs could be too. It’s possible Villa could perform at a very high level next season and still ”only” finish 9th or 10th. The Prem is a difficult place these days.
  18. Done deal according to Ornstein https://theathletic.com/4599038/2023/06/10/youri-tielemans-aston-villa-transfer/?source=user_shared_article
  19. Don’t really want to mention it, but could also become the first English club in the UECL not to reach the semi-finals.
  20. The police in Athens can be quite heavy handed, I’ve watched them beat the shit out of asylum seekers a couple of times. Maybe a bit early to worry I guess.
  21. Could see English clubs winning the UECL quite often. The 7th (or 6th some years) team in the Prem would normally be the favourites to win it.
