Joint 7th top scorer in the league. Scored as many as Gabriel Jesus.

Am I reading this wrong or would this not mean 5 teams being relegated? 19th + 20th along with the three that lost in the playoffs.

He said himself it's just a bit of a bruise and isn't a problem. I don't think it'll be an issue. I think there is a good chance Bruno will be back too this weekend I think?

If we have the ref from the Tranmere game he'd probably get away with a yellow.

Pedro doesn't count towards the squad number as he's not 21.

This deal was super easy, barely an inconvenience.

Kamara has been doing very well by all reports. Fans on Villa forum are raving about him.

Couldn't see Targett though so I think that's true.

They've just shown the players arriving. Wilson and Pope definitely there.

I think Wilson is very good but obviously held back by injuries. There is a pack of good English strikers that Wilson is in amongst, and if he has a good half season I think he'll stand a chance of going the world Cup. But I think Kane and Abraham will be the first names on the list.

No, I'd say Tammy Abraham is.

That's not true.

He does say it'll be slow like Man City though, which wasn't very slow.

I like ASM but 'shot involvements from carries' seems like such a weirdly specific and pointless stat.

But the price you pay is spread over the length of the contract for ffp regardless as to when you pay it.

Well, it's a brimful of Ashworth on Tyneside.

I've noticed when people have asked Luke Edwards about £25m on Etikite when he said our budget is £60m, he's started to say "it won't be that much upfront" which is a bit of a backpedal. Perhaps the journalists are starting to realise the whole line of not spending much is nonsense.

I think it's been reported recently that Aston Villa have dropped all interest.

To be fair they state in that thread it's not his technical passing ability. It's the decision making on what passes to make. I think that comes with changing to a completely new position and is something that is likely easier to coach.

I'd be quite happy for them to be in the Prem, with where we're going with our new owners it'll be hilarious to watch the relentless dicking we'll give them twice a season.

Wasn't this about a week after the exact same keeper was lobbed by Beckham from the half way line?

So do we ignore the fact that Messi is winning the league this season while Ronaldo is battling it out with West Ham for 6th?
