Aint over yet though.

That's not what I mean, it's that a season across the 3 FFP years, that's ultimately our issue, Fosun don't won't to

But that amount will just mean they tread water certainly won’t get anywhere near to where Lop wants to operate.

 

[Langers]

Villa really have been excellent and look like a very good side.

Not going to say 'unfortunately' because City dropping more points is good for the league and this isn't going to directly affect us.

 

[jd1981]

City more often have a low point in a season then go and win 11 on the trot and blow everyone away, Liverpool and Arsenal both are very vulnerable defensively.

 

[Jack Regan]

City started the game with four centre halves, two fullbacks, two strikers, Bernardo and Foden. I don't care how good Pep is as a coach that's a recipe for disaster.

Three central midfielders on the bench in Phillips, Kovacic and Matheus and it's clear he trusts absolutely none of them.

Yeah, thats my thoughts really.

 

[Wilf Wolf]

How bad must Pep think Phillips is if he won’t give him a game?

 

[jd1981]

Villa v Arsenal on Saturday is huge if they win that they’re only a point behind them.
Rodri demonstrating why he’s so important, they’ve lost 7 of the 17 games he’s missed.

 

[HanDoJin]

Nunes is amusingly poor in this team

Nunes is amusingly poor in this team

He was, yes. Trotted about, played the ball backwards twice, won one tackle, kicked it out for a Villa throw, that was about it.
Weird.

It’s absolutely bizarre. Guy was intrumental for England getting to the latter stages of the last few international tournaments. So if Rodri is out, how is he not even getting a kick? Two CBs, Bobb and Lewis ahead of him in midfield… really?

 

[jd1981]

Roy isn’t going to endearing himself to Palace fans with comments like “the fans here have been spoilt in recent times” the context is meant that they are usually decent at home. But you know how people love to twist things, nevertheless Palace fans are not best pleased regardless currently.

 

[Tony Towner]

It's an unusual season for fan expectations, with the pressure off from relegation for so many teams so early, focus moves more to performances and entertainment

Woy's a twat, deserves everything he gets.

Woy's a twat, deserves everything he gets.

He’s not my favourite but I’d probably have Dyche, Cooper, Howe, Arteta, Frank, Ten Haag higher up in the knobhead league than him.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Yes! Villa score

What the fuck is this?

Woy is well known as a wanker. Can't speak about the others although Howe and Lampard are very well spoken of.

 

[Wolftone]

Understandable comment, but I had a few quid on the Vile.
No big fan of city and their bankrolled success either.
Plus it makes the league more interesting and doesn't affect us.
Well not me as I've lived away a long time.

Villa were completely dominating and Pep’s response was to bring Nunes on. Very strange.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

What the fuck is this?

I agree. Hate everything City stand for and don’t give a shit either way about Villa tbh. It’s Albion I despise.
