Tactical fouling?

McGinn reminds me of how Milner used to play.

Being slightly pedantic, but how come Havertz isn't booked there?

I think we all know the answer. His name is Stuart Attwell.

Hmmm not quite the same as Leicester but could villa win the league ?

They have the fact they are a Midlands team on their side as far as omens are concerned, but I can't see it.

Champions League place and then drop down to the Europa and win it, while they wank all over winning a second tier trophy.

The Leicester comparisons won't stop, although they will be like comparing champagne to vomit. Leicester won 7 of their last 9 games the season before they won the league and were 20th prior to the first of those wins. The following season they were 5,000-1 to win the league and third faves to go down while Ranieri was the top fave to be the first managerial sacking of the season, basing this on his poor tenure with the Greek National Team in which they couldn't even beat the Faroe Islands.

With Villa, they were comfortable all of last season and finished 7th while winning plaudits for it and Emery was seen as a genius.

The two can never be compared, it's ridiculous.

Villa a bit ropey. Giving the ball away cheaply and can't string a couple of passes together.

I'm surprised he didn't put it in his contract not to play against them.

So you are saying for a booking that wasn’t a booking Jack got booked deliberately? Wow

People think that manipulation is about big decisions. It is not just that. It's the non-award of blatant yellow cards, free-kicks in the middle of the park and a host of other things.

Wasn’t Rodri’s yellow against Spurs for a shirt pull?

 

[super_city_si]

Arsenals press is good

Not at all.

Just pointing out he's as big a villa fan as Phil is for us.
