You might if you can tolerate all the breaks and peripheral shite that goes on. If you can enjoy the nuances of the game, some of the best at what they do in the NFL are playing.

I don’t know the tactics or can read a play, but I know the basic rules and game reasonably understand what is happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggy Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 2 minutes ago, Lush Vlad said: They kept proving me wrong last year and are doing so again this season. So what do I know But I just don’t think Man U are much good. 6th place with a 0 goal dif. It’s like us that season under Pardew. Game plan relies so heavily on counter attacking and riding their luck/moments of magic. They still get outplayed most weeks I watch them. A bit like us, injuries haven’t helped. But I still have no idea what Ten Hag’s style and identity is supposed to be? Been there plenty of time now. If they failed to win here. I think we’d have a chance of catching them. But just glanced their next few fixtures and they look easy enough. They have been finding a way to win of late, which is quite a decent trait to have, I suppose. It's just pure luck mate.

Villa's decision making and final ball were poor, bit of a smash and grab but that's how they play these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you enlighten me? Yeah quite easily. We're better than people think. We've been able to play our first eleven 1.5 times in the last 6 months. Villa obviously dominated the second half, with everything coming down the left hand side. You can say that's because we're shite, or you could analyse it properly and see that Luke Shaw is a huge loss and our only option was to play a centre back there who had played three mins in two months.

I was more meaning overall. Not just today. You bought a keeper to play out from the back. Then all of your ball playing defenders got injured. So that’s far from ideal, I‘ll give you that. But even last season. I didn’t understand what your style was other than counter attacking and it seems to have continued into this one. It’s not like you’ve got a really weak squad and no depth. Or the players available are shite. You’ve spent shit loads over the years and have a gigantic wage bill and pulling power for signings. Which is why I find it odd that a coach from Ajax. Hasn’t managed to implement a discernible style or philosophy (to my untrained eye, anyway) in a season and a half of being at such a big club.

I would agree when he's at the top of his game, but the injuries are incredibly frustrating. The difference he and Martinez make is staggering.

Villa with the CL money next season will be a pain in the arse in us progressing. I agree. I just don’t dislike Villa and hate Man U. Man U are in trouble FFP wise too.
