Out front line is totally ineffective without Richi.
Odobert is a nothing player, Xavi is a ghost, Muani is a non scoring striker and Tel shows promise but again very hit and miss.
Don't you rate him?
Villa went from fighting relegation to fighting for CL in a season under Emre
Getting the right man in the door with a couple players in the next couple of weeks could get us fighting for some form of Europe with how tight the league is.
Next manager after Frank is the single most important thing.
Give Alonso whatever he wants IMO
Fuhrich really ain't that great. We need a killer attacker.
I like Stiller, good player...but he gives me Lewis Holtby vibes from a PL adaptation pov. Would much rather we go after Wharton...or Locatelli.
I’m sure they just wanted updating on the condition of his ribs as I doubt the cunt stopped laughing all night
Exciting kid, yes...but he's just that, a friggin kid. We need someone who's played more than 30 pro games.
Fair play. Noted you defending Richi as I sometimes do. Has his faults, but my word, look at us without him!
There's more to Villa's success than just Emery.
But yes, hiring a world class manager is an essential thing.
They won't even make the call to Xabi.
Can imagine that’s part of the Frank delay.
Lange “Vinai the Lewis family would like you to call Xabi Alonso”.
Vinai “As Sporting Director, Johann, that is a call for you to make.”
Lange “Sorry, but they asked me to ask you to call him Vinai”.
Vinai “Well, are you sure? As this is a Sporting decision, shall we ask Paratici?”
Lange “Oh yes, good idea, Xabi can laugh at him instead of us.”
Vinai “Where is Paratici?”…
"Vinai, you have to call Xabi."
"Why the hell would I call Xavi about the manager role...he's only 22 and we need him on the pitch."
"Nah not that Xavi, I meant Alonso."
"Ah yeah I like Alonso, very nice F1 driver. Would be great to launch our new Go-kart promo."
I’m watching Fuhrich score and cause real issues for Stuttgart v UB. Looked dangerous every touch before going off.
Don’t get Holtby from Stiller tbh. Weirdly more like a Barca style DLP
Holtby’s a terrible comparison. Like saying Modric gives off Harry Winks vibes. Stiller’s a much, much, much better player than Holtby.
He’s not even a terrible tackler, he can time tackles fine. He’s just not very quick or that mobile, which is fine, Gallagher, Sarr, Bergvall and Gray all have enough legs to cover for him.
It's Xabi Alonso and not Xavi Alonso
It's also Liverpools next manager and not Tottenham's next manager
I know that. You obviously didn't get the joke.
I think the Frank nonsense is a distraction we don't need, and I think his continued stay puts off possible targets, whereas bringing in a manager with a bit of a name behind them, aids any pursuit.
might as well bring the manager too.
Was impressed first half vs Union Berlin. But Berlin did a Brentford second half, set pieces and only coming alive in the last 10 minutes to snatch a draw
