If we're backing him and end up not giving him the whole season (unless we actually look like getting relegated) then the decision makers want shot with shit

It does, last time he had a bit of time on the ball and the boos started he looked a bit confused himself, which made me wonder

Villa fans booing Matty Gash?

Even letting Richarlison score proper centre forward goals ffs

What are Villa doing? This is like when you're doing an 11 v 11 shape exercise and tell one side to do nothing but basically be moving mannequins so the 11 you're coaching can work on patterns

At least I'll enjoy us relegating West Ham, not a bad consolation prize if these don't go down

They should just make their sign-up/sign-in captcha "Click anywhere on this map within 10 miles of Anfield" and they'd not have anything to worry about

Gallagher rolling back the years to his Palace loan there

Feel like a lot us are probably thinking this and alongside the Howe staying news but also that we're going to win the next three and spawn some sort of Europe next season 😅

I was going to suggest he'd at least win a Conference League with Real Betis but this is a far better envisaging

I'd quite like us to set our stall out in terms of what our playing identity/philosophy is as a club so we can all judge us based on that. If that's "Howe-ball," then fine, but we should be setting the bigger picture agenda ourselves for better for worse so we're never in thrall to the tactical beliefs of one person, or at least the beliefs of that one person should mirror those of the club, which is why they get the job in the first place.

This theory also plays into my "can we see Tonali play LCM like he does for Italy please?" thinking

The logic behind Championship, Ligue Un, Eredivisie or the Belgian Pro League loans is sound as they're the closest in terms of physical demands to the PL. Then it's a bit of luck, is the player actually any good/going to have a top level career or is it just a shop window and getting him minutes, and a ton of other variables. That said, I'm of a view that in reality if you're not already in and around the first team at 17 or 18 it's highly unlikely you're going to "make it" at the club you're at, so loans after that point are more about proving these lads can play and will have a career, as much for their own well-being and future as well as the club making a few quid

VAR is Attwell, no surprises they've done fuck all

Uncle Albert in the Stretford End

This place a democracy now?

Not sure if this is funnier than if Man U just absolutely battered them or not

What a goal

Already made peace with him coming here with Bayern in the CL in a couple of years and ripping us a new arsehole

The depression in loogie's voice whenever he speaks is just 🤌🏻

This is going to get messy for the wall pushers

Howay a sinkhole!

He's going to be one of those players in a few years who has gone for a total of £200m+ in fees over his career and been mostly shit everywhere he's gone

Fairly inoffensive yesterday, save for one embarrassing moment during a corner set up where they had 2 spare players and he had to ask Tindall who to mark. Back in my day you just used to shout "I've got 2" and get the lad doing nothing to mark up goal side

Brennan Johnson is absolutely dogshit
