Aston Villa (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

Phillips was a Guardiola signing, recommended by Bielsa. Didn't work out for him but remember at the time, he was playing next to Rice in an England two that looked great. It was worth a punt, especially as we had bid on Rice and Rodri is a vaguely similar player so maybe there could be chemistry there. It's only bad in hindsight, like most things.

I always think there's 2 types of players that we bring in at City. Players who are designed to play 70% of games and players that are designed to play 30% of games. I'd argue Nunes, Doku and Savinho were in the 30% range but due to circumstances such as Bobb, Palmer, Foden going centrally, etc, have graduated early into the 70% range without this being deserved on performances which is why they're catching flak.



City cheered SWP every time he came back after leaving for Chelsea.
And Dzeko in Istanbul and, Zabaleta when he came back with West Ham, rarely dont cheer a former blue apart from that rat, Gabriel Jesus.
 
Our wage bill is head and shoulders the highest in the country. Missing out on Europe at a time when we need to invest to rebuild the team is a huge problem.

We can’t lose £100m+ of CL tv money and 6 home games and it not have a huge impact on PSR. That’s without whatever lies in story with 115 !

We are tailspinning to mid table and it’s gonna get worse in the next few weeks.

Thank fuck we picked up points at the start of the season cause I can’t see us picking any more up anytime soon.
We can easily afford a season out of the CL. PSR is not calculated over one season.
60m plus is on offer from the revised World Club competition.
 
The squad needs surgery in January. Robinson and 2 top midfielders. Centre back and a KDB replacement in the summer. The leaks from Sam Lee this morning do not sound promising - we will finish bottom half if we don’t sort this out.

Rome can’t be rebuilt in a day but let’s not throw the whole season down the pan when we have the resources to turn it around please city!

No threat and far too slow
you forgot the legs. all over the pitch. DIRE.
 
Hi Villa fan here,remember football is very tribal , when players leave and put another clubs shirt on they become the enemy. Most Villa fans I know still love Jack. It’s great to see he has won lots of medals at city. I do think however you have not seen the best of him at city he looks to scared to lose the ball and generally just passes sideways and backwards. Good luck city for the rest of the season you will come good again but Pep will need time to rebuild.
You boo him cos he’s gone on to achieve things that you will never see and the jealousy and bitterness utterly consumes you

As I said coming out of the ground yesterday to the boring sounding cunts u only hate us cos we took all your best players ( and fabian Delph) u could only dream of 1 prem never mind 4 in a row.
 
Our transfer policy has been great over the past few years but it seems Kalvin, Doku, Nunes and Savino are poor signings, they just don't seem to fit in. Perhaps it's a good thing Txiki is leaving, he's done a fantastic job but it's probably time for a change.
Would you add Kovacic to that list?

We can afford it but it might mean we struggle to get our targets and will Haaland hang around?
