The tipple with the meal did though. The players used to pass a bottle of scotch round before going out on to the pitch. At least as recently as Vic Crowe times I know they did.

TRO Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 On 17/11/2021 at 21:58, dont_do_it_doug. said: Nuances of the position aside, by whoscored heat map data alone McGinn has played defensive midfield two times this season alone. I think that misses the point somewhat anyway, McGinn is clearly a better asset when he is given license, whether that be from central midfield or a more advanced position. We've seen evidence of that this season, when played in a 3 with Luiz doing the sitting and Ramsey alongside him prepared to do run the hard yards, giving McGinn more freedom to be bomb on and create havoc as he does for Scotland. When he has been asked to play in a midfield 2 in particular, as he has done for most of last season and this, he has looked a shell of his best self. Smith has, for various reasons either by design or necessity, invariably shackled him throughout his Premier League tenure with his insistence on a 2 man midfield. Whether Gerrard et al will find a way to take those shackles off for the betterment of Aston Villa is TBC, but the potential is there in a 3. I agree with all that Dave. My point is the 2 midfielders in the 3 will be much more comfortable and free, playing with a dedicated CDM as opposed to a DLP as Luiz has been played in the past. I like to see Luiz further forward too, hence my persistence in signing a CDM. Marv has come in and staked a claim for that role, but this dastardly injury has scuppered that.......I think we need to sign one.....my guess is, it won't be a marquee signing.

The players these days, wouldn’t be able to hack it. Too concerned with Playstation at 11pm and Intergrams to get pissed before a game and get stuck in.

A quote from Jim Cumbes. “We were playing away and we’d taken this 15 year old apprentice with us. As was the custom a whisky bottle was passed round. Players took a drink, then when they’d gone onto the pitch Vic Crowe took a big swig. The apprentice asked him why and he replied, “ Son when you’re manager of this club you’ll know why.” “ 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalfTimePost Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Man's got the antibodies of a housefly. I thought he has spoken about vaccination so assumed he was but 3 outs in a year, he may be one of ours not vaccinated and therefore isolating everytime he's been a close contact?
