Disco Posted September 16, 2025 Share Posted September 16, 2025 That game against Man Utd on the last day appears to have killed them somewhat. King Unai in the Waffa Cup though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRC Posted September 16, 2025 Share Posted September 16, 2025 Villa vs Sunderland, a loss for Villa would be tremendous. A win for Sunderland would be annoying. Not sure what I want to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andycap Posted September 16, 2025 Share Posted September 16, 2025 I think he's a top manager but it looks like there's problems there with certain players not performing particularly Watkins Rogers and they aren't creating much at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In saying that if there was Champions League buy clauses in the contracts of the loan players, they’d be fuck either way. We might be starting to see them fall away as PSR intended, unless they won Europa League or FA Cup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted September 16, 2025 Share Posted September 16, 2025 Wouldn’t shock me if it’s an us last season job. Overperformed somewhat last season, heads turned amongst key players, business not exactly making sense but will be fine come May. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPL Posted September 16, 2025 Share Posted September 16, 2025 This is where I think loaning players is a bad idea in the long term. Last season they looked great with Rashford and Asencio. However, I still think Watkins is still pissed off as he was dropped for Rashford in arguably their biggest game of the season vs PSG. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember that long, lingering shot of Emery on the touchline on the final day just looking fucking furious as he's watched his side fail to capitalise on our loss?

Sliding doors moment and they've not looked the same since Think the players (given the Ramsey comments) have somewhat bought into the whole PSR and the league are punishing us narrative which whatever you may think about that doesn’t necessarily make for a positive football team particularly with Martinez, Watkins, McGinn all being linked away (open to being peddled by the club). That said a nice Mings retribution at the weekend would not be a sad sight to see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, they're under the same pump we are tbh. Anyone of any value can/may/will be sold to ensure compliance with PSR. Sure Gordon was hawked around and that unsettled him and I'm also sure a few Villa were pushed forward to take the PSR hit too. It's fucking shit really, the rules are deliberately written to fuck ambitious clubs up. And the reality is that there is so little ambition in the PL that the rules pass every time. There's a few clubs that want to mix it but 14 don't so fuck all happens. The whole thing is rigged Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The acting obviously isn't optimal but thought Carvajal's headbutt was one of the worst I've seen of those in recent years, don't mind the reaction that much if the foul is so clear.
