Erikse

And to speculate even further, the tranfer may not had happened if it wasn't for the ban.

Fixed it, apologies.

Said it a long time ago that if he comes out as good as I thought he would, I'd give Howe creds for the signing. Because it was clear as a day that Howe was the one who wanted him, and you can certainly see why now. It took a while, mind.

Also important to remember that time "moves slower" for these players. They react very fast to everything. That one second for Duran would be like 3 or more second for the man on the street. For instance you can see it when Bruno smashes that pass in to Isak, and he just casually recieves it perfectly with his left, when people like us wouldn't even have time to move until the ball had passed us.

Notice how he runs normally, and slowing down by bending his knees to avoid Schärs feet, while looking at him. But all of a sudden he decides to straighten his left leg and plant it at Schär after looking at him for a second or so to see where he is (strange how he "accidentally" put his foot there while he'd been looking straight at him). The left one looked more deliberate imo, because the movement was out of the blue. With his right foot atleast you can make the argument that he was falling.

I'll post it again. I don't understand how the stamp with his left foot isn't deliberate. He looks at Schär way before the movement. He straightens his leg and aims it at Schär. Not something you often see at all.

Every week you see players getting stamped on twice after tackling someone, as they accidentally go full stretch towards them to stamp on their butt and then "compensates" but stamping into them with the other foot. Totally normal sequence of events, happens all the time.

Feels like bottom 2 are already settled. It's basically just about whoever gets 18th. Seems to be a real trend of whoever get promoted goes back down, atleast for the most part, with some exceptions.

Every Villa fan using the Howe out of context quote about it "seeming harsh" as a proof that it wasn't a red. Conveniently leaving out the part where he says "I only saw it live". I also didn't think there was any foul play going on until I saw the replay.

Poor @Froggy allways getting his hopes up..

They'll charge like £80m at the bare minimum.

We're back to having a very good goal difference. We've gotten used to being above anyone else at the same point score. We were not used to that at all pre takeover.

Brought in Fernandes. Took out Cunha aswell. Mare.

Look at his left foot.

Honestly stretching out his left foot to stamp on Schärs butt looks intentional aswell.

It actually looked a little more accidental from one angle as he slips with his left, but I also wonder why he stretched his left out to stamp on Schär with that one first. Still think it looked deliberate, but from one angle it leaves you with a little bit of doubt actually. I thought it was obvious earlier.

You've got to wonder why he hasn't been used like this in ages. He keeps creating chances for us. Exactly what we've been missing for such a long time. Fans have been calling for it to happen for a good while. Now we can see the result of it.

Bruno so tired.

Agree, there needs to be some common sense..

Hall looking like a great asset! Will get more assists playing like this, and we've been keeping clean sheets.

Please take Hall off. I have him on FPL, I want my clean sheet.

We really struggle with scoring when things are made easy for us.

The keeper was past him, it's off.

He's been creating so many chances for us after getting moved.
