Probably a good idea to get rid of anyone UE isn’t going to pick really.

EDIT: and replace them, obviously.

Nkuku is fucking rubbish.
I do not disagree

I do, Jackson's shit, not NkuNku.

I’d rather Nkuku as he’s technically a far better player

Don't believe it.

🚨 Aston Villa are showing interest in West Ham midfielder Lucas Paqueta.
@MailSport

But thats the kinda profile of player we need. A clever technical ball player
I thought we needed pace and he’s not that….just saying.

I’d put him in the same mould as Asensio

Looks like we're trying to bring him in on loan.

You guys need to calm right down and judge Monchi on the outcome of the window when it closes. I'm pretty sure you were all lauding him when Villa 'won' the January transfer window when signing Rashford and Asensio. We are 3 players short of having a quality squad. Go and do something else and come back a week on Monday and see where we are then. And as for anyone that questions the best manager we've had since Ron Saunders, be very careful what you wish for.....

Be a pretty boring site if you can’t question stuff. Regardless of the outcome of the window - and I hope we look a hell of a lot better - we’ve still started the season not where we need to be. That deserves a question or two.

You can be supportive of the club and manager, and want them both to succeed, and still question decision making at times.

Spot on Jim. Constructive criticism is fine but some of the bollocks is atrocious

Well that’s not really what he’s saying is it? He’s saying no one should question anything.
