The Footie Thread

Honestly he should do though. I think he's absolute class and could be playing in a top six team easily.

Hes a top 5 player. No doubt about it. But he doesnt need to go anywhere yet. We're not far away from challenging for a european spot if our recruitment goes well this summer - just fell off this year after Jack went down injured for 12 games!

Just seen the Man City red. That has to be one of the worst decisions of the season. It should have been a foul against Welbeck if anything.

The tackle on Jesus at the end should have been a pen and a possible red for Lallana for going over the top of the ball.

I liked Bamford's comments about players having to dive or go down easily to get decisions.

Didn't see any of the game but a lot of City fans after congratulating Brighton are seething at the ref for a poor game ( for both teams).

Depends what kind of mentality he has I guess. He may be fed up of the team relying on him and only him to win games. But some players thrive on being the big fish in a small pond. Like Zaha for example.

Feel like Zaha wanted to go a year or so ago but got priced out of a move.

Jacks 25 and the captain of his boyhood club. The passion he has for AVFC is unquestionable, im sure most fans would agree, give it one more season an if we progress again (we went from relegation fodder to comfortable mid table - and with jack could have been pushing europe) he might stay. He deserves a go at trophies if we cant give him that, id hate to hold him back too long, but I think he buys into the project our owners have started.

Wes Edens knows how to run a sports team, we have extremely wealthy owners who are investing heavily - rumours we have £260 million to spend thanks to them just injecting more and more cash. (Some will go on villa park renovations im sure) Its a great time to be a villain. Jack knows it.

P.S Konsa for England.

Yes, as a Spurs fan I have kidded myself in similar ways many a time. They always leave.

Dear lord that is an absolute shocker. How can you not go to VAR for that. How did the person looking at the screen not tell the ref to go to the pitch side monitor.

They DID go to VAR, and they still didn't give it. There is a history to these decisions...

Agree the red card shocker!
Jesus should not have been on the pitch for his hack on llalanas knee. But over the top was very lucky.
Bamford is spot on .
Thing is though these refs will all have big games on Sunday.

Don’t blame you, especially as you did go before. But if in a parallel universe it was West Ham I think I would be buying two of the Cat 2 tickets. Thinking it would be a once in a lifetime chance.

And in that parallel universe I'd quite understand you doing it. Not sure I'd be pulling for West Ham though...
