Garth Crooks has his team of the season picks up. No surprise he went Arsenal, Man Citeh etc, however you could pick your own obviously. However the ONLY Villa player chosen is Martinez, not one other one can picked in any of the outfield places.

I don’t necessarily disagree with that. We have been a collection of super performances lead an inspirational manager, and very arguably punching way above our weight. That’s why we will see 3 or 4 of the regulars drop to the bench in August as we improve key positions. That doesn’t take away from Doug, Tyrone, Ramsey, Ollie, SJM etc. But even with Villa claret and blue tinted glasses on, I don’t think individually it puts them above some of the players that are on most lists for best 1st XI.

Fucking hell I've just looked, that's criminal. You can choose the likes of Paqueta though in midfield? I'm sure he has been better than Luiz in the league this season *rubs chin*.

Oh yeah, it's the first team I have seen of his this season because he is one of the worst pundits I have ever heard but even for him to not have a single Villa player option out of another 43 players considering what we have done since Emery came in is shite even by his low standards.

I don't think anyone actually cares. It would be a shit forum if we only ever spoke about what we really 'cared' about.

Not including Mings and Luiz is pathetic, they've been superb since Emery came in and in the last 4 months are in the top 2-3 in the league in their positions.

A friend was just breaking into football journalism and met Garth Crooks.  He said he was in awe at first but after ten minutes chatting realised he knew bugger all about football.

And you can pick Gibbs-White as one of the forwards, who has chipped in with 5 goals this season.

Watkins is the only player in the top 10 goalscorers list who you can't pick. You can select Jesus though, who didn't score in 17 between October 1st and April 1st, along with Gibbs-White as you mentioned.

Crooks is the new Lawro - crap, been there too long, cushy number and zero imagination. In fact less imagination than Shearer.
