It's Quiet Thread 15 - Txiki Blinders

I quoted someone who said he had good stats , i asked how many goals , nothing to do with you , do not ever accuse me of wumming , get fucked, you are on ignore

There are so many more stats than just goals, and Grealish is superior in all of them to Sterling. Even then, it's not fair to compare Villa to City. We produced 3 times more than them. If you watch any football, you'll see Grealish has superior technical ability which is more important now for the way we play.

By the goal metric:

Eto'o > Ronaldinho
Lampard> Zidane, Xavi Iniesta
Cavani> Mbappe Neymar
Gomez> Ribery, Robben

None will say that Gerd Muller is better than Ronaldo, Van Basten, Cruyff just because he scored more goals on average that any of them. Because those 3 guys brought to their teams much MUCH more than just scoring goals(which it's important obviously).

Yeah agree with this.

If we win the CL, then Guardiola will have no reason to revert to the previous style as well.

He does not have to replace thirty goals because we play different style of play now.

Our style of play is now Barca-esque, extremely reliant on technical ability.

Hes more of a creator for Villa than a finisher, hes got 6 goals in the prem this season and 10 assists only behind KDB and Kane. when he gets into those positions to score he will look for the pass instead. whats good about him this season is his dribbling i rate Raz but Grealish at dribbling is easily one of the best in the prem he just glides past players its why he is fouled so much one of those players where if he gets going only way to stop him is to foul him.

Finishing wise he dosent really think about it if hes one on one, he knows how to find the net. its a shame he plays for Villa because if he played for a Bayern or a Real madrid and the attack didnt have to go through him i think he could be looking at Double figures in goals. there was a goal last season against the Rags where he cuts in and curls the ball in the top of the net. I think hed bag a load of goals for us.

Exactly,apples and oranges.Daft comparison and debate.

An interchanging Foden,Grealish and Bernardo behind Haaland would be a thing of beauty - intelligence,resilience,industry,tenacity,vision and devastation!

Stats are meaningless in such a system,as everyone will be contributing by continually retaining possession,assisting the assist,and initiating play.

It will be a beautiful cohesive collective - drools!

If we get Haaland then I would expect our style to completely revert back to the seasons before. The style we are running now has been forced on us due to the lack of presence up top.

We haven't the personnel to go traditional,our play is based on possession,not pace or beating a man down the wings,our attackers all prefer coming inside and finding the pass.
I think Haaland can adapt and i know Grealish would be perfect.
