So, we need to "clarify some circumstances."

Translation: it's a fucking mess and we don't know who's staying and who's leaving.

Responding to villa for life, I'd say it's as simple as he made a mistake, like every player does at some point or another.

Yes, a rush of blood to the head can happen to any player no matter how many big games he’s played.

I can see another big departure this week and 2 or 3 incoming as the dice is rolled . Something feels off .

I do not disagree

I really liked what I saw of him pre-Chelsea and his last 2 seasons at Leipzig were really good. I don't think he's rubbish at all and hasn't really been given that much of a chance there.

He's been crocked all the time

Yeah, I think that is the bigger issue rather than him being "rubbish".

It's a big week whatever happens. For me Asensio makes us a better side than the one we've seen first 2 games. If we can get him, a pacey wide option and a centre half we'll be better off.

I’d prefer Jackson to Nkunku, but at this stage I am not to sure I trust the scouting too much.
