We look very predictable.

Agree. I would put Tino on! Create more overloads as well as protection in defensive transitions. Better in possession as well.

Personally I would put Tino on at half time.

They should have scored. Too easily through, again. Come on lads, wake up!

Treating the ball like a hot potato.

Poor start.

Safe to say that I don’t like Klopp just like many others. Arteta however…. He is even more annoying, and by some margin. Just seeing him walking into the stadium annoys me. Even seeing him pitch side zoomed out seeing the back of him

This!

Dogfucker has a point.

I hope so..

Aye it would make us better overall. I just think that the money is better used on players that can elevate us a few steps and not just improving the quality in depth. Signing a real quality player will both improve our “main 11” and allow us to challenge the top teams even better, especially away. It will also automatically improve the depth/backups at the same time. Only have to look at what a difference the likes of Bruno, Botman and Isak makes when they are at their best. Then imagine more of these instead of players that only improve depth.

Most likely aye. At least I hope so.

Whatever we do go for I hope it’s quality before quantity. Main priority for me is to strengthen the weaker links in the team. Players that make a real difference to the starting eleven. IF we have the luxury of adding some top top young talent for the squad then that would be amazing. I don’t see the point in spending money on players that is more of a sidestep. Either go for genuine quality players or young players with massive potential that don’t cost a bomb quite yet. A free signing or two of good quality might help us to be able to afford a couple of top quality ones.

Personally i don't think he's good enough technically to improve one of our weaknesses properly, like ball retention/possession/passing and press resistance. He would cost more than i think it's worth. He could prove to be a "bargain" but i'd rather see us put our money elsewehere.

Apart from that it doesn't exactly improve our 1st team. Depth? Yes. Don't see the point of signing players that don't improve our starting 11 properly. Quality is vital imo, and then let some of the current players become backup/squad players.

Onana and Billing doesn't feel like a proper step forward. Quality before quantity. Waste of money imo.

Actually think his valuations are pretty fair or even spot on overall. Don’t see us getting much more for them than those values. Our bargaining positions isn’t super strong either when other possible interested clubs will know that we might want rid for various reasons. The players aren’t that young either. They will know that we have to sell to evolve.

I don’t believe it, and I refuse to believe it.

Personally I don’t see a club paying 40m+ for Joelinton. Lesser clubs probably can’t afford it, not much resale value for them either, or the opportunity to sell on for more. Top clubs will want players that are better on the ball when it comes to passing. Love Joe though. It also would be idiotic to keep him and let him leave on a free.

Aye mate. Villa might start to feel the pressure properly.

Fuck off!

Surprised to see so many thinking that Villa have been poor.

Aye, but possible imo.

Well based on that, yes, obviously.. personally I think they are catchable. Both of them.

Villa to have a “very very sneaky” win today? Seriously though, I think ManU will win this because of transitions and Villas high line.
