Frederick Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Big Darren off to Fulham for the season. I'll go to my grave saying this (not literally) but there's an alternate reality out there in which Martin O'Neill buys him instead of Heskey and we make it to the top 4 and a wonderful new dawn begins. Still, when you think of the dire situation we were in when he actually did arrive he really did all we could ask of him: keep us up, which in itself made him worth the money. Anyway now we're two managers further down the line and the mandate (in tactics but mainly wage bill) has changed and so our time together must end.

astronomer Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 The way Wenger and Arsenal have gone about doing business this summer 3-1 is a poor result for Villa Joke of a summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael* Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 Well, credit where it's due, Fulham dominated us for the four seconds it took to take their corner. We were only on top for the remaining 94:56. Not exactly the start we were hoping for then, but a much better all-round effort than anything I saw last season, with the new signings mostly looking the part. Still plenty of room for improvement, though, and the wretched run of home games we'll now have to negotiate is a concern. Crying out for a creative midfielder to play alongside the beastly Cabral and, as has been the case since dinosaurs roamed the earth, a proper left-back. Superb win for Villa yesterday (the new away kit reminds me of battenburg - the cake not the referee), Arsenal and Arsene Wenger reaching borderline dangerous levels of self-parody at present. P.S. I love you, Simon Mignolet. P.P.S. Nice teeth, Brendan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frederick Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I loathe the new away strip and all its ghastly Bristol Rovers connotations but if we play like that in it then I'll gladly buy a few to help pay off Stephen Ireland's fur coat habit.

SympathysSilhouette Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 PSV were a joy to watch vs. Milan, especially in the first half. Had they a better forward (or just one who holds the ball up well) they would be truly formidable. Too bad, Cocu's young side is likely to be gutted next Summer (if not earlier).

Frederick Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Two games in and we've already seen what will be the worst refereeing display of the season. Pathetic but oh so predictable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
