Whatever has happened, this summer, or by the sounds of it far before then, the players have been told a few things and we haven’t got a happy camp. I’m sure Emery is not too pleased how this has played out. It’s making his job even harder than it is.

I can’t see what is different to what Konsa has said that’s much different to McGinn, Mings and many fans and pundits. The rules are confusing and although some of it makes sense but when you see teams in a lot of debt still spending it then doesn’t make sense.

I’m sure Ramsey going has upset a fair few of our team.

Yep, exactly, the rules clearly changed how we approached the window and the players would've had to be living in a cave to not notice so of course they're going to have something to say about it, especially if they're away with their country and get specific questions about how things have played out.

Could always tell his fellow teammates and fellow professionals footballers to take a pay cut , might help a bit

If we’re paying players less, you think that will attract better players?

With the Stone injury, Konsa is likely to start again.

It's about time Tuchel ditched Stones. He's always injured when needed. Tuchel today described him as classic number 6 DM player. It's a bit worrying  that he thinks Stones, slow as he is, could that job against the world's best.

Oh right, misread that. Of course I’m sure Ezri has enough clout to ask all professional footballers to drop their wages.

Yeah, he was definitely at fault for all of their goals.

Shame we can't merge Konsa and Watkins into a single entity.

Bronte and Smirker could have a Forever Thread on how crap that are...

Same v Newcastle?

Keane is right next to him but doesn't see him for the header. He's playing Beto onside for that cross/shot. Typically soft at the end losing possession that Mings bailed him out. Dont know what's gone wrong with him.

Interesting that Bournemouth feel confident enough to play an 18-19 yr old Serbian CB on Saturday ...

Konsa says Emery was right to call the Villa players 'lazy', and admits brontebilly was right all along.
