That pull down of Rose behind the back of the ref on the edge of the Villa box was scummy. But the headband game is strong.
Sorry just logging in not trying to saturday morning quarterback but can you explain this? I've always felt Sanchez has been very good and fundamentally this bothers me.
Unlike the honest question of someone I wanted at discussion with, I find you to be a reprehensible cunt. I like Aston Villa. You're a cum bucket personified
Ndombele is the real deal. Looked a bit out of shape at time, but part of that is transitioning from Ligue 1 to the EPL. He had some turns that reminded me of Dembele.
That second half pressure was great. KWP played really well, I thought. Ndombele and eriksen together was dangerous af for the opponent.
Sanchez still has too many brain farts but I really like his future. If we hopefully keep Toby this year it’s another year of Sanchez rotating as he gets more experience. He’s got all the physical tools, just needs to improve his feel and passing.
Couldn’t agree more with this. He’s still what, 23 years old? Consistent playing time is something he needs more than anything.
KWP is great in these type of games where we have the vast majority of possession. It’s the games against top teams where he has to play defense that I worry.
Kane just described Ndombole’s play as twisting and turning and wrapping balls in. That is a perfect description, especially the wrapping part since the other is so obvious.
Shit. He is literally in the same spot as Eriksen without the publicity and being older. I really hope we don’t sell him.
Bizarre that there’s literally been no mention of offers, desire to leave, etc. Seems completely out of the blue.
Trying to put a positive spin on it, perhaps Poch is just making a statement that he would prefer to have more offensive players on the bench this year and people will be sat from week to week on defense depending upon his selection. We have a deep squad and Jan is 32 and only was healthy for 22 games last year. Poch said the following pregame. He is a pretty straightforward guy. Maybe we should take his comments at face value. Pochettino was quizzed on the 32-year-old’s absence before the game in north London and the Argentine admitted Vertonghen was not injured and that he’d been left out for tactical reasons. Pochettino dismissed reports that Vertonghen was injured. ‘It’s a decision. You take decisions as a manager,’ Pochettino told Sky Sports. ‘We decide for different reasons that we will play Davinson and Toby and then Serge on the bench can play in two sides and Dier can play centre-back too. It’s impossible to find a place for every player.’
It’s fun when you completely write off a bet because you need three unanswered goals in twenty minutes and you end up pulling it out because he’s one of our own
He uses the tow poke and a very awkward stop start pace so well. He definitely has his own style that is uniquely his.
