Their keeper is certainly better than Ramsdale.

Look at who you're replying to

Villa fans wanted a change 2 months ago by the way - shows how fickle football fans are really.

People have been saying he'll be under pressure practically every single bad run we've been on. Repeat ad nauseam.

Hopefully we don't have to see Nuno ball again. Grim manager.

Luton away?

Christ imagine if we'd signed Sesko.

Plenty of people had concern over the summer. Repeatedly they were told "how many has Howe got wrong" I've never seen value in much of our summer signings to be honest - £45M for a Willock crock is absolutely mental especially when he's been out of form for a good 2 years Ah well

There's no guarantee a replacement hits the ground running. Look how long it took Glasner/Iraola to stamp their mark on the team. Which begs the question - is it actually worth looking at a replacement considering this is Howe's team? No doubt the upper management will get a bit itchy if we're still shite this time next year but I absolutely do not want to entertain the idea of looking for a new manager until its beyond saving. Not to say he's got a lot right this season, but Pep was doing a lot of odd things last season too, and I'd wager they'll probably win the league this season.

I love you Robert. Never change.

These are the exact matches we lose 1-0

Sods law he's managed to stay fit for West Ham. Had we given him an extension he'd probably still be in the physio room.

It's okay, this game was our Brentford away. We'll go on a run any day now.

I don't think we'll get Europe unless we do some smart business in January or completely change the root of our attack. This whole ideology that "we're only 6 points away" is fine, we're also 1 point ahead of 15th place. It's just not been good enough and I'm sure Howe knows that.

I think he's treated Barnes like shite personally, not just a one off either.

This season is so predictable and boring. It's the same shite every week.

Getting my vocal cords ready to boo this guy later on.

Will put my neck out and say this guy will be immense for us. Seems absolutely delighted to be here and is just soaking it all in. Vardy played mid 30s as a striker and was relatively successful, it can happen

I don't disagree, especially when it's abroad.

Laurent Robert vs Fulham always goes a bit under the radar. And his double against Spurs!

Add him to the list.

Struck it better than Luuk De Jong did for us tbf

They have been mostly irrelevant for a good 10 years. We've had no issues beating them last few years and I think we can beat them today.

Worrying.
