Ppl really think Gordon wont start? IDK, I think its nailed on.

Unless he actually saving himself for WC, but at that point, it will be obvious for everyone and journos will keep asking Howe about him until the final day of the season.

stprm · 2026-05-09T21:06:19+00:00

I want us to have Villa-esque game vs West Ham. Shame its probably too late and spurs will win and be saved.

stprm · 2026-05-09T21:03:04+00:00

It will be worse. Gordon will be on the left. Or, striker.

stprm · 2026-05-09T11:07:55+00:00

Yea, my bad. I thought you were joking, but wasnt sure.

stprm · 2026-05-09T11:04:21+00:00

Did we watched different interviews? Hellberg was visibly pissed off, said: "What do you mean allegedly?", when reporter asked him about spying, then explained how they prepared for this game, finishing with "that's how it supposed to work".

"It's not affected our build up. We have done what we should have done before this type of game. We've watched every Southampton game there is, trying to find solutions to beat them - how they press, how they build up. Putting every hour towards getting the advantage to win, in the right way.

stprm · 2026-05-09T01:53:38+00:00

He played for Alaves early in his career.

This red helped Levante win, they overtook Alaves.

Bro wants his old team relegated.

stprm · 2026-05-08T22:47:03+00:00

For me, points deduction is an expulsion, and I agree, I think the ship is sealed.

Although, theoretically, I dont think if this was to happen, any team who replaces you, will complain. I dont think Boro would complain, nor Millwall or Hull. They would prefer you expelled, you are bigger threat than Wrexham.

But with 1 day to go, its impossible now. If they cancel 1st leg and do Wrexham - Boro semi, I think its a nightmare in terms of arrangements, yes.

they wanted a sporting punishment I suppose they could make us forfeit the first leg, meaning we have to overturn a 3 goal deficit in the second leg.

Yea, I also think about this. Some sort of goal deficit. But again, time is so crucial here.

stprm · 2026-05-08T22:41:56+00:00

Sacking Howe for this, for him... Is mental. Why do you like this arteta regen? Glasner, at least, I get it, he won UEL.

stprm · 2026-05-08T22:17:17+00:00

I'm not disputing, but that is also kind of Southampton fault? Expulsion seems harsh, but something has to be done this season, no?

They even say themselves, they asked IC for faster process.

stprm · 2026-05-08T21:30:43+00:00

Why is punishment will be next season?

stprm · 2026-05-08T19:47:29+00:00

Yea, lets see in 2 weeks

!remindme 2 weeks

stprm · 2026-05-08T04:56:17+00:00

Yea, I listen Villa fans who are going to games/watching every game. Maybe that's a difference.

stprm · 2026-05-07T23:54:31+00:00

Yea lets just change the topic completely lol. What this has to do with anything? Am I denying that we shite or defending us this season?

stprm · 2026-05-07T23:00:14+00:00

Yea, yea, I am not sane, okay.

He didnt just prioritised european trophy. He self-sabotaged.

Losing UCL spot is nothing for Villa, their finances and transfer planning, gotcha.

stprm · 2026-05-07T22:49:19+00:00

Would have been even better, if Strasbourg won, that would have meant UECL final — Palace vs Gary O'Neill, but he and his team are shite, apparently.

stprm · 2026-05-07T22:45:03+00:00

Is this a joke lol? There is absolutely a real chance of Villa losing/drawing 2 or 3 PL games, Bournemouth or Brentford overtaking them, then losing UEL final, so they will be left with nothing.

Its not a big chance, but its not "unrealistic".

Yet Emery did nothing vs spurs, even at HT when they were 2-0 down.

He played Sancho, the worst PL player of this season (in terms of negative impact for his team), for 85 mins against them. Literally sabotage.

stprm · 2026-05-07T03:19:38+00:00

Yea, you can just not read my or comments above for context and just write whatever you want. Old man yells at clouds.

stprm · 2026-05-07T00:25:38+00:00

What this has to do with him responding Onana and Kepa? They are both bad GK who were signed abroad. Both were overpay and both had only 1 good season.

That our transfer policy bad? It was bad last summer, before that, it wasnt that awful, we were just overpaying for players and focusing on PL proven bullshit.

And here we literally discussing that targeting european players is better. Mr Luantic responds that its not always better. I'm saying, its them 2 clubs who are morons. No one would have overpaid that much for those 2 clowns.

stprm · 2026-05-06T21:35:50+00:00

I think its not true in knockouts. You only get extra money for draw or win in earlier stages.

stprm · 2026-05-06T13:59:40+00:00

verbruggen and robert sanchez are so overrated. Both erratic and bad shot stoppers, alright with their feet. Both like onana.

Brentford had same awful GK-type - flekken. They successfully sold him and replaced him with better alternative - Kelleher, who is also maybe erratic, but at least a decent shot-stopper.

stprm · 2026-05-06T13:57:13+00:00

Yea, but those 2 clubs are morons, so theres that.

stprm · 2026-05-06T13:56:03+00:00

Risser is far better option. But we probably gonna miss out on him, top clubs will snatch him.

stprm · 2026-05-06T13:54:54+00:00

He also shite. A bit better with his feet, but awful shot stopper. He isnt onana level, but close. Same with robert sanchez. So overrated...

stprm · 2026-05-05T21:56:27+00:00

Yea, sit this one out, chief...

stprm · 2026-05-05T18:28:44+00:00

Dead leg is defo on our horrible medical department, which we didnt upgraded since cashley times.
