No excuse to start Longstaff ever again when we have everyone fit. He’s fucking hopeless. Don't care if he’s from North Shields or North Carolina.

Something needs to change tbh. We are just so stale and one dimensional, not helped by Howe’s favourites stinking the gaff out every single week

I’m at work til 7. Kind of glad looking at the lineup.

Tonali must be scratching his beautiful head too.

Not my place to so say so apologies, but that’s weird.

Hopefully some lovely fume as the night goes on.

Just cannot see the 3 promoted sides doing enough this season. Everton will be fine. Sadly. Imagine relegating them in May at SJP? Howe is an Everton fan, would be bitter sweet for him.

Stay clear in Jan. @Eddie @Paul

I think Eddie Howe broke Villa’s ability to win at home. They were invincible before we rocked up with a depleted, confidence sapped team and schooled them.

Na, that’s when they intervene for the winner.

What minute does VAR intervene to get Liverpool back on level terms?

Micky Mousers losing!

Southampton and Woke Martin are just a waste of time.

Edwards is harmless tbf to him. I have called him a few abusive things over the years for the way he goes on, but suppose he is always going to be a bit of a nobhead the way some of our lot go on at him.

Maybe they should organise coach travel to Lancashire and charge £53 again.

The kid that does that channel is a grade A whopper so doesn’t surprise me.

Dubravka cost us about that last season. This lad must be horrendous if he’s behind that idiot in the pecking order.

I hate when our fans give journalists shit for negative reports, and as a fanbase we seem to have this weird complex where we believe anything good and write anything negative off as lies. However, with Hope on this matter I feel people have every right to call him out. The way he’s twisted Howe’s comments at the press conference into something they’re not is embarrassing. Then you get wankers like Chris Sutton jumping on it.

I think Howe goes if anyone. Mitchell brought in to be the main man with recruitment and lead our strategy. PIF appear to have been the ones driving that. Would make little sense to get rid of him if that is true. Would make more sense to bring in a head coach who is happy to work in the model that we are working towards. Ideally some form of harmony is found and both of them stay and thrive.

Aye, I’m sure they left at around the time Mitchell was appointed.

Seen people whinge all season about injuries and lack of rotation, then Bunce comes in and people whinge about it. I am talking about Twitter as opposed to here (I know, social media). But sums people up. Same people whinge about how shit the summer has been but then cry “there was nowt wrong with it” when the old recruitment processes were criticised.

I meant the Aviva Stadium Nowt wrong with the East Stand, other than it’s size

Agree re the East Stand. Absolute eyesore that.
