  1. Mourinho is a very good manager with great self-promoting skills, Ancelotti is a great manager.

     

    When was the last time Jose lost a home league game?

     

    Ten years ago, and it's only happened once. If I remember correctly.  :pow:

  2. Just looked back at the players involved in our 4 - 0 away win over Ipswich.

     

    My god. 

     

    Khizanishvili, Raylor, Butt, Smith and Ranger all started, and Donaldson even got on at the end.

     

    How the hell did we manage to win that? lol

  3. I went to the game last night. My overall impression was that Villa seem to have a policy of selecting players firstly of skill and technique, Hence half of their team were too small and easily knocked about. Our lads generally looked much bigger and stronger.

     

     

    I didn't go, but my mate did, and that is almost word for word what he said as well.

     

    I'm suprised with that as all i seem to have been saying for the last couple of seasons when watching the youth team is that we seem on the small side (Andy Carroll obviously being an exception) and struggle against the bigger more physical teams.   

     

    Perhaps Villa are just reeeeeally small?

  4.                           Krul

     

    Simpson  Williamson  Coloccini  Enrique

     

    Routledge  Barton  Guthrie  Gutierrez

     

                Ranger        Lovenkrands

     

    Subs:  Harper, Kadar, R Taylor, Nolan, Pancrate, Carroll,  Ameobi

     

    Is what I'd love to see.  Not that that'll happen.

  5. I know the guy's shit these days, but he's been loyal and doesn't talk shite to the media, or does he whinge about being on the bench.

     

    He's been useful to bring on as a sub away from home this season, and I thank him for the job performances and a memorable goal against Spurs (I think it was Spurs) a few years back.

  6. When did the burden of diving shift from players to refs? I'm sure 10 years ago a player would have been castigated for that sort of dive, but all the radio stuff I've heard has hammered Mike Dean for it.

     

    I think everyone's accepted FIFA aren't going to punish divers.

  7. Last season, Nicky Butt was tracking the guy on the ball.  A guy a few rows in front stands up and shouts at the top of his voice,

     

    "JUST KILL HIM MAN!"

     

    So Nicky dives in, like kamikaze style, and misses the player completely.

     

    The shouting guy went absolutely apoplectic, and starts screaming (and I mean, SCREAMING), "YOU CAN'T EVEN FUCKIN' KILL HIM RIGHT, MAN!"

     

    He turns and sees me laughing at him, at which point he just sat down.
