Last season I remember us being 5-5-5 after 15 games, so looking like we will be 2 points better off so far that last season Not considering the teams we've played mind

Arsenal to beat the PL favourites Villa, please

Acheampong for your first CB suggestion. Can cover RB well apparently too

Death, taxes, and Villa beating Brighton

He must be showing absolutely nothing in training For how poor Elanga has been, he's still had starts / minutes

3rd option will win us the league

I'd much rather Howe than Emery personally, but Emery has all his success at previous clubs on his CV, and I think Villa have recored more points than us since Emery had been in So it's fair to have Emery above Howe imo

3 more weeks, Turkish

How's he been when he's played this season?

What full backs could we genuinely target in January? Feel like it's the position we could do with an extra player in asap, and we should be in a good place FFP wise. Really like Kayode for Brentford this season but I'm sure he'll be too expensive.

Got some questions on the format Is it seeded for the preliminary knockout round? So say we finish 9th, then do we play the 24th team? And then If we win, do we then play the 8th team in the last 16, and the team who finished 1st would play the lowest ranked team who qualified out of the 9th - 24th lot? Or is it a random draw then?

Wages is a better indicator of where we should be imo, not how much was paid for players Kamara and Tielemans are both brilliant and cost £0. Though I'm sure they are paid appropriately

I wish I never looked at the CL table when we were 1 nil up So 2 wins and a draw to give us a chance on 16 points pretty much?

Murphy + Burn > Elanga + Botman Although we've seen Botman at a high level for us before Also, would like to see Ramsey have a game as good for us as Willock tonight

Buzzing for him

Ekitike for me looks the most talented out of all of them

Mixed race?

Scott McDominate

Would be a dream, but he probably wouldn't come here + we'd need to sell one of ours first

Aye that's true, but Howe would probably rather play Burn over prime Maldini if he had the choice 😂

Agree with TCD on the last couple pages. The Tino and Hall's of the world are how we end up with world class / nearly World class players, that would otherwise be out of reach to us or cost a bomb Not buying players with ceilings 1/2/3 levels below this, as it will cap our ability to improve in that position and they probably can't be sold for profit

Barnes and Joelinton are the ones who are the right age / contract length / contributers to the team / value to sell IMO Barnes - 28 next summer, 2 years left, Gordon is preferred, and we need a different profile on the wings, with 1 making way for this Joelinton - 30 next summer, 2 years left, not as effective as he was. Feel like he's a big name and would be ideal for a Saudi move

Is he a proper wonder kid like?

Not got much to say to the Howe topic as everything has been well covered. For me he has loads of credit in the bank, transition season, and I think we will come good eventually However, it is interesting to think of what other managers are out there, I'm not sure you can say most shout about (Glasner, Iraola etc) are upgrades on Howe However 1 that I think would be and could be a good idea in 1.5 years time would be Inzaghi, if it turns out we would benefit to a change in management He'd a step up, though I reckon he'd be someone Liverpool go for if they get rid of Slot, or City if Pep goes etc
