Mervyn King. 'Track record in finance is second to none'

I stopped reading after that profound comment from SVC

Not a fan of quantitive easing and drip down economics then?

[PaulWinch again]

I absolutely despise this shameless, gutless, lazy, arrogant and talentless group of wankers. Easily the worst squad we've ever had in absolutely every respect.

[AV89]

Guzan.  Bone head
Richards.  Wanker
Lescott.  Arrogant
Bacuna.  Arsehole.
Agbonlahor.  All of the above

Get rid of this lot first.  Sick of watching you steal a living of Aston Villa.

Here's what they al earn allegedly.  Doesn't make me feel as bad if we can get rid of the first four and halve the wages of the ones we want to keep.

I kept scrolling until I found a player I *didn't* want get rid of. 7 swipes. I'd be crap on Tinder.

The ones we want to keep should form the basis of the wage structure going forward.  Just because there may be a clause in the contract to cut wages by half (if you believe the reports), doesn't mean we should just follow it blindly.  We should renegotiate contracts for the best players so that we do not lose out.

Makes you wonder if those wages are correct, how our wage bill is so high, even allowing for the players that left last summer.

Riley still being at the club worries me. We can have the inevitable clearout at the end of the season but what's to stop him buying a whole new team of rubbish players.

If we had a couple more Ayews and Amavis, and a couple less Lescotts, Gabbys and Richards, we might not have been in quite such a bad position.

I hate 90% of these utter clowns.

[SheffieldVillain]

I hate 90% of these utter clowns.

Yes - me too.

Funny though that the majority of those who are in my 10% and not either wankers (Gabby, Richards, Lescott) or shit (Hutton, Guzan, Sanchez) were actually those signed by Reilly last summer.

Traore, Amavi, Ayew, possibly Gana.

Other than that, I'd only actually want Grealish (and he's pushing himself perilously close to pissing me off) at the club next year.  I'm fairly ambivalent about Gestede, Clark and Westwood although they need to not be automatic first choice players. The rest can sod off.
