When you say the guy. What exactly are your expectations?

I look at our squad and it’s about 5-9th in the league taking into account your average injury list per season in a premier league side.

You have our fans lauding emery, Howe etc and they have largely had an injury free season (with Howe playing far less games) and they are both likely to finish outside of champions league and in villas case, maybe conference league.

How is that much better than Ange given the tools at their disposal

I would say the level that Poch was for us is what we have to hope that Levy stumbles on (he will only find it by accident). I have seen enough from Ange to be fairly sure he ain't that. Angeball doesn't sustain in the Premier League. Bar the fabled first ten games, it's been a totally inconsistent, chaotic and player wrecking experience.

Even in a good win, we should have been 3 down in the first ten minutes. And that's on our best day.

In my view, the club is wasting time with Ange. I hope we can do as well as possible until he goes but I don't have any faith in the guy whatsoever.

I’m not a mathematician but anyone tell me how many points a game, in the games he’s played, and what that would be on the ladder, if he’d played every game for Vicario, against the combined foster, Austin, Kinsky combo?

By my rough calcs we’d be top four if Vicario had played every game at the same points per game, and equal with Ipswich/leciester based on the three headed monster we’ve had to play in his spot.

Sometimes it’s not that complicated.

So I put a sheet together. Obviously a lot of other factors like total injuries, who you’re playing etc., but the stats are

With Foster - 0.7 points per game, 18.6 points over 26 games, good for 17th.
With Austin - 0 points per game, 0 points over 26 games, good for 20th.
With Kinsky - 0.8 points per game, 19.5 points over 26 games, good for 17th
With Vic - 1.8 points per game, 46.4 points over 26 games, good for 4th.

We deserved to win all 3 games. Not the issue. Not that 'deserving' to win a game even matters much, you either win it or you don't, missing a chance isn't unlucky.

But it won't last, which is the issue. Although this is probably the most consistent we've been in the league for ages, which says a lot about the standards over the last year or so.

But again, this will not last. Feel free to bookmark it.

You sure about deserving to win games does not matter. It did to Ange v Brighton when he made no attempt to change things in the 2nd as we didn’t deserve to win the game.

inexcuseable to not rotate kulu when he has been poor for some time now, why does he play him 90 minutes almost every game? there is absolutely no reason he could not have been taken off vs ipswich.

Lol at him. How about just sound out to the coaches or Ange and let them know it will be the best of everyone if he can play 15-20 minutes less every game if he's so not 100%? So you know Moore can play too?

Rocket science? Ffs! Beyond beliefs. Thats why I am no longer trusting on Ange and the coaching team for long term after this season. How would they have not seen this problem but constantly playing him to the ground?

Absolute pussy club. Who let him do this interview? Dude talks and talks and does nothing. Media darling, like his boss Ange.

Iraola didn't have to play twice a week for 3 months due to the Europa League and being in the knockout stages of the league cup (they were knocked out in August). Why do people always omit this difference when saying injuries haven't affected him? It's hardly a fair comparison.

I think what you said is fair, but we also have to take into account that Bournemouth's squad is thinner and has far less quality than ours.

Don't let facts get in the way of you humiliating yourself in public again though, boi.

The issue is Maddison and Son can't ever complete 90 minutes - once you've accommodated for that and maybe had to make a few other subs for tactical or injury issues then all of a sudden Kulusevski has played another 90, whether you wanted him to or not.
