It all almost makes me want to join Twitter. I won’t like, but I appreciate those who share this madness on here.

‘Can I ask you what you do for a living Dan’? Is another stock in trade of his. I just hope ginger baaaals doesn’t tell him that scaffolding isn’t a trade - that usually tips him over the edge

Given who is behind it, ‘Supporters’ as a proper noun will be those he recognises from away games. Those who he doesn’t are ‘supporters’

Robocop playing number 5 though. Could work well with Botman

I agree with you - but I get the distinct impression the PL money men don’t

I’m struggling to see the Cordone comparison tbf - completely different players, ages and price tags

The reverse was true in the ‘90s - it’s less a cultural difference, and more a financial one. There’s a lot more money in English football today, so the financial risk of a bad signing is greater. This was also the case in the ‘90s when the money league was Serie A.

Gave the ball away for the third today by trying a daft dribble

He hasn’t had the squad options that Guardiola has had since day one of his managerial career.

He’s young and raw. The price tag is for others to worry about. He’s been bought with the next decade in mind, potentially. A poor performance in the middle of a poor team performance doesn’t need undue criticism

‘Villa fan in peace’

Poor performance all-round - players and staff. Sometimes these days happen. Somehow I tend to feel better when it’s down to performances like this rather than fine margins or individual errors. It was a collective off-day. Roll on next week

‘Why is my trolling being met with those sort of replies? I just don’t get it’

This type of stuff is just fucking weird. It really is.

Fucking hell Neeek

Awful. Just awful.

No, they wouldn’t - that’s shite. There’d be a song or two. Banners and celebrating like you’ve won the league on the final whistle? Nope.

Their run-in is scary mind

Christ, is Bruno hungover?

Watkins has Schar on toast

Really really poor this. Half asleep again.

Wouldn’t go yet

Fell asleep in the middle again. Bruno and Joelinton having a stroll-off. Both need to wake up - we’ve had a let off with VAR

Gan on then, I’ll bite - I usually try not to. Why the fuck do you only come on here during the game in order to try and post troll stuff? Fucking hell man, if this game really does make you this miserable, take up another hobby.

Yep - it’s a clear tactic and we were falling for it first 15. Get tight on Trippier and then turn him for pace.
