We have a set piece coach, who's only contribution to the team thus far is a single very good goal, a bunch of whacky free kick/corner routines, and our becoming fucking diabolical at defending set pieces.

 

Was he the guy that came up with that thing of having someone stand miles offside, and then grab hold of the opponent who was marking the target for the free-kick?  Genius stuff in the age of VAR.

What has been the quickest every team in the top flight has earned at least a point in the league? Three games in has to be close to a record. United will beat Liverpool on Monday and West Ham should get a point at home to draw specialists Brighton.

I'd love it if Man U were last to get a point.

He's a fabulous player but in a squad which constantly gets overrun in central midfield and already has Coutinho, Leon Bailey, Ollie Watkins and Emi Buendia I just can't see how this is true, or if it is true what the thought process is.  

Indeed.

 

At this in moment in time if you were Villa and looking to spend £20m+ on a player, you'd put it on a central midfielder. Or a defender. Or a striker.

 

What you absolutely wouldn't do is put it on a wide player, because we don't play with them, and they don't fix the glaring issues we have.

You'll have to wait until I'm really bored at work.

Burnley 3-1 up at half time, should have been 5-0 (their goal came from - to use the technical term - us fannying around at the back), then it's 3-3 in two minutes and both sides end up with ten men.

 

We used to be boring.  I'm now wondering at my age if I'm going to make it into an online commentary somewhere this season as "a medical emergency in the crowd".

Is Tella on loan? I thought he looked really good when I saw him play for Southampton last season.
