I sit here sometimes and cannot work out whether he’s on one long wind up or genuinely believes the shit written.

Safe to say he's a bit of an enigma.  Can't make my mind up if his research has led him to his findings or a dozen pints of guiness has led him to his findings.

What's most amusing is how FV riles so many of you. Just smile and scroll, it'll keep your blood pressure and frown lines in check.

I've long suspected it could be the former. Hats off to him if so, would be top work.

Only Ings was challenging for a first team place . Augustinsson
Nakamba, Guilbert, Sanson, Bednarek weren't in the picture and not required. Better for them to be out of the club and not involved for Emerys meetings.

People can think or believe what they like but its well known that a smaller group classes are better at learning as theres more scope and far less disruption and distraction.
Emery is breeding students of the game. It's no coincidence that he's signed Spainish speaking players and linked to players he's previously worked  with.

It is because he had nothing to do with signing Duran, as he literally said himself

Ings has recently married, so he will be under more pressure to be at home more frequently, in addition to taking care of the baby.

"Alexa, show me a post that's peak Footy-Vill..."

It's definitely on the right hand side of a compass too.

They wouldn't say it, but some players will be distracted during these lengthy meetings.
Guilbert and Sanson probably felt it wasn't worth their time, and Ings, being experienced, didn't believe he needed to learn the game any longer.

Good luck to all three, but if they don't want to learn Emery's tactics, they won't be suited.

That entire post is libel and you should cease bringing these gnarly rumors about.

Go cool down.

I think Libel is a bit strong, Fantasy prone perhaps?

I think you're missing the point.
What point is that then?
Libel.

a published false statement that is damaging to a person's reputation; a written defamation.

What are you crying about?
Nothing QC, just taking care not to respond in a libelous way. :'(

We shouldn't be signing anyone that Emery doesn't want.

Don't forget our good friend Hopadop who, I believe is one.  *

Indeed, Hopadop was my initial thought but Richard E also pointed it out last week during a Palace game (aptly enough).
