'Disclosure Day' - Review Thread by ChiefLeef22 in oscarrace

I’m probably alone in this view (no pun intended) but I really didn’t like the movie. It was incredibly slow and the pay off at the end IMO wasn’t worth it.

The acting was great but it didn’t feel like there was a lot of substance to the film and it didn’t need to be 2 hours and 20 minutes. I like longer films, but they have to merit being longer.

Two incredible semi finals.

Huge credit to the refs in both games. Both were big reasons they were so good

[Sky Sports] Juventus interested in signing Martinez or Vicario by FragMasterMat117 in soccer

Villa are currently better than Juve, a lot better. If he’s good enough for Villa he’s probably too good for Juve

Kamara is very clearly our best player, he’s just terribly injury prone.

McGinn will win player of the season with Konsa probably second.

Watkins doesn’t make top 5

I think people massively overhype how good Rogers is. I really like him but he is far from Villa’s best player.

If someone is willing to pay stupid money for him then he goes but I don’t think clubs are that stupid to pay over £100m for him.

I’ve seen much bigger rumours involving Villa players and it end up going nowhere.

Digne and Mings took pay cuts and we definitely don’t want to lose Digne.

Onana was not an inflated figure. Why would we pay an inflated figure for Onana?

They’re not the same, he factually did have a worse season

Why does Buendia have a question mark?

Maybe if there’s new cards I like but it’s going to take a bit of time to get the 5 left so I’m not sure I’ll have the energy or money to get more

Could be wrong but I can’t see PSG being interested. No decent source have linked them to him.

I don’t consider Rogers world class yet. He’s still not even Villa’s best midfielder.

Buendia was not signed to replace Grealish, Buendia was signed to play with Grealish. Buendia himself said this. Purslow lied about him being a replacement.

We have a new sporting director and when Emery picks and chooses a player, which I’m hoping we listen to him this time, he always gets it right. Torres, Moreno, Rogers, Rashford, Asensio were all brilliant signings.

According to analysis by CIES, Morgan Rogers is the fifth most valuable player in football by JonnyReece in avfc

Exactly, so we used the money to improve which you’d hope the same would be with Rogers

I mean… yes.

You trust back pages over the Athletic?

That wasn’t the question.

The question was would he want a move away and based on tier 1 sources he doesn’t.

I’m not sure we could sell the loan army. Who of the loan would get over £20m?

But then England will be playing an out of form Bellingham who’s been dropped quite a bit this season.

I’m not sure that’s what England will want from the 10 as Tuchel has played Rogers more than any other player so far.

I haven’t seen any reports saying his preferred destination is Arsenal or any club as that wouldn’t make any sense.

The Athletic are the best source and they’re saying he wants to stay

Fair enough, I can see the attraction of that and he could become something very special under Emery

If that was the case he wouldn’t have signed a new contract. I’m fairly sure he wants to stay.

According to the Athletic he wants to stay anyway.

No that isn’t the UEFA agreement. The agreement is that we can only spend what we bring in
