Maybe to flog a third kit there's some small print that it has to be worn a certain amount of times, otherwise you're robbing fans even more than usual.

Let's see what Olsen is like then, poor bloke.

He was great when Italy laid siege to Sweden goal in the 2017 world cup play off. Also made some top saves when they played Poland in March.

Bit odd we played Emi on Thursday instead of resting him then to give Olsen some minutes.

Interested how Buendia and Coutinho get on in this game, long while since they both started in a prem match for us.

I do think Villa will frustrate Man City today as well as offering a little something in attack as Buendia is also in the side. Think we'll get a draw.

Ours is a darker, classier blue anyway. In keeping with our Scottish heritage.

To be fair, although we’ve had less attacks than them, we look more dangerous when going forward. Also, shouldn’t their player have been sent off for that pull back on Watkins? I think with the roles reversed our defender would have got a red.

You've definitely seen those given as fouls and as soonas the ref gives it he has to go for a red card. It's situation like this where I'd love an option to sinbin players because I think the ref might've given it if it wasn't putting them down to 10 men for an hour.

Yep, the script is written.  Fernandinho all over the place at the back for them and could have been even better for us if Watkins' touch hadn't let him down again.  Olsen looks suspect with the ball at his feet, but on the whole it's been a good half.

If they eviscerate us in the second half I won't be that bothered, given that they are one of the most efficient teams in the world (won't say best because their football annoys me).

However, if we fuck their big day up I will be well pleased. A point or three for us would be unexpected and Greasy will have to wait for a trophy. Someone has to win the league out of Bingo and Baldy so it might as well be the Mighty You'll Never Wank Alone Reds.

Top quality striker and we’re 3-0 up now.

I like Ollie a lot and love his workrate. But his finishing need a lot of work.
He is not a natural finisher and never will be.

For some reason, I’m feeling incredibly anxious now. It would be so nice to derail Man City. But a Villa win and Liverpool draw would still give Man City the title. And you just know that they’ve got the ability to score several in quick fashion too.

If there's an upgrade available for Cash in the summer of make that #2 priority. He can't cross and he can't defend. There's only so far a lot of running and the odd flying tackle can take us.

Post by: supertom on May 22, 2022, 06:03:35 PM
It's official. I hate City more than any other side and this fucking sickens me. So typically Villa to capitulate like that too. Rubbish. We lacked any kind of nous, just to dig in after they pulled one back. We've got to face facts on Young, Nakamba, probably Douglas. They don't offer anything. Some serious upgrading is needed just to get into the top 10.
I feel a little for Cash and Digne as they'd clearly run out of steam having covered so much ground and had been superb up to that point. Likewise McGinn.

Bet that woman that stood to get over £300,000 of Liverpool did the quadruple is really happy with Villa. I’d think she was offered a substantial cash out when we were 2-0 up but doubt she would have cashed in at that point.

Post by: A|C on May 22, 2022, 06:08:36 PM
Why did Gerrard take off Coutinho and replace him with Nekamba?  All that did was free up Citeh at the back and
 allow them to just by-pass a very static, not match fit and dare I say not that great a player. 

To me that showed how naive he is as a manager.  Still at least we didn't get smashed.
