A bit of defending wouldn't go astray, but good start to the season. unplayable for that 15/20 after HT. we're going to murder some teams this season. that was so much fun. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was like Hagler and Hearns going at it, fantastic football with plenty of pace all over the pitch. It will be interesting to see how you do when the opposition want to sit back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilai Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Ojo out with a small fracture in his back. Apparently only a month out but I reckon that is a bit optimistic Summer workload getting the blame...maybe we should have given him a holiday after Euro <19s?

wilai Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 Good deal for all parties...we get our cash back on a player who didn't suit us and Palace get a proven PL goalscorer. Benteke gets a chance in a team that will play to his strengths. Only losers in the saga??.....Villa! Selling him in the first place quite possibly cost them their place in the Premier League. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
