Should of added that as an option

Looking forward to Christmas mate?

How would everyone feel if Villa did manage to grab the title? Pissed off that it would be framed in a similar way to ours? Delighted because it's another 'up yours' to the elite? I'm torn, part of me would love for a shock to never happen again, but on the flipside I bloody love Emery, have no issues with Villa as a club and actually think the way they're playing and the results they're getting would make them worthy winners. Quite amusing after years of horrendous overspending they might come close with a rather modest (net) spend in comparrison.

As I was saying…

Feel like QPR are going to be that “bottom of the league to the playoffs” team this season

Those saying he won’t be good enough next season might get a surprise in January when we have a few phone calls about his availability for a fee (rather than a free)

I found the second half really interesting, especially after watching his coaches voice video. We seemed to change from the square of 4 in the middle to spreading 4 across the width of midfield, with 3 up top to just completely overload and trap them.

Absolutely savaged BOTH their fullbacks. Poor lad who came on at half time had just as torrid a time

Was an odd cameo wasn't it! No way Enzo will stand for that level of effort. Didn't win a single 50/50 (didn't even try to to be fair) Also not a lot of running. Too early to judge but he was given a decent half hour by Enzo there and really feel like he didn't take advantage of it. Bar the scramble that lead to our 3rd.

Guys... we're in the Championship now, should probably move on

Was more a reference to not playing for the U21's either

Inured then?

No I get your point for sure. I don't doubt there will be some more entry level packages in the new seats too (e.g. food and drinks +ticket, Villa have just released some sort of street food hall+ticket package) I just don't think it'll be all of it to begin with. Looking at the designs I think the extension will have a similar vibe to spurs with a long open hall for food and drinks for that stand.

Alves didn't feature for the U21's on Monday, think he might squeeze on to the bench given Enzo was expecting Yunus back but now he wont be.

No they wont, it will allow another level of boxes though and some hospitality.

My summerhouse got mardy once and fell down

Just love how honest he is, basically saying 'yeah we know the Ipswich game is going to be crucial and we want to win every game until then' Also the point about Millwall manager is interesting, the 'previous teams' he's only ever managed England U20's for two games after the summer world cup, losing them both before joining Millwall. I guess he might mean some of Lampards teams at Chelsea and Everton?

Yeah. Just seems like a lazy trope. We barely sign anyone 'just for the dev squad' If we did they might be more successful

Question, been meaning to ask this of a few people lately, when did we last sign 'another one for the development squad'??

Maybe his job now is to throw people off the scent of our actual business

Same! It's a great spot to commute in from

Their new manager is a “playing the right way” type fella but don’t think he’s got his point across just yet! 6 games in I think. He’s ex Chelsea, been Lampard assistant a few times.

Never understood why Swansea got rid! Always looked handy.

That Monday night game against Birmingham is about to become utterly pointless for Sky

Surely all the more reason to make use of the U21 league rules that mean he can play? 🤷‍♂️
