    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    I do find your response to his comments interesting because I couldn't give a fudge either way. I find all of that to be fluff either way, positive or negative. If everything was going perfectly and we were say top of the table I wouldn't sit here and analyse those comments he made about sitting...

    Frank Give him time or get rid?

    Probably because your league performances are your actual bread and butter. There have been many teams that have had poor league campaigns that have been patched over to an extent by a good cup run or win but ultimately your league form is the barometer by which you can determine where you are...

    Transfer thread

    People don't pay attention, Tielmans is better than both off them and I was a fan of both. Tielmans has actually disappointed a tad in that he hasn't quite reached the level man at expected. He was rated similarly to Bergvall when he was 18-20 (probably even higher if I'm honest). He's turned...

    Conor Gallagher

    I'm not the biggest fan of Gallagher but I find this hard to deny. It looks at least on paper reasonably balanced and higher in quality levels at the specific things each player is good at as opposed to the melange of meh we've generally played so far this season.

    Maybe I just didn't think much of it, I remember thinking at the time I'd want to see more from him in terms of passing range and execution

    Skipp was never much of a passer even at Norwich. He was commanding and dominant but his passing range was mediocre and never really improved.

    40 yard pass from Bergvall? You sure about that? 😅

    Conor Gallagher

    He's a squad option for them, rather than a key starter. Also Athletico are never afraid to sell a player to fund the addition of someone new. Again they are a team more than happy to player trade to get the players they actually need.

    Pacqueta

    He was a a million miles away from his best but his performances had improved. Let's not get gassed and carried away, he's still a patch on Conte era Bentancur.

    Conor Gallagher

    Villa also have less need for him and so less desire to add him permanently to their wage bill. He's a potentially useful addition for them in the short term to achieve their goals right now, but necessarily someone they require long term.

    I'm not particularly a big fan of his but he's better right now than both Gray and Bergvall. If they are indeed better they will prove it.

    They They use the market correctly. Buy and sell to improve their squad. It works.

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa FC ***

    Best football I've seen Spurs play was under Harry. Give him a great striker and we seriously, seriously challenge for the league.

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa FC ***

    I had a strong opinion of Jose beforehand and so I didn't think he was suited. I didn't and don't have a strong opinion of Frank, so I'm willing to give the season to show me what he's about.

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Its deluded to expect to win all of those games and thats what he said. He actually expects to win them all but accepts that you won't get perfect results. Thats different to saying I expect to win 3 out of 4 home games.
