Thanks as always, Steve

Streamlining what is already a paper-thin squad is a dangerous game... Can't help but think they're clearing the decks for a new manager to come in

He's from a Barcelona isn't he?

Thanks Steve

Going from Carvalho to Didier N'Dong... Jesus wept

Most of us never wanted to see him in a West Ham shirt again when he decided to go on strike - it's a real shame his move to West Brom fell through last season when we could have gotten a decent fee for him. As most people in the thread have said, he's one or two games away from injury - sell him wh...

Perhaps it's another spin on the 'Don't go to bed. dg' classic

Can't look any further than Arnautovic in all honesty, his red mist moment has ruled him out of what could be three crucial games for Slav.

With the way our seasons started, we're crying out for an option like Andy Carroll - we seem to have no plan B (or even a plan A at times!)

Best we can hope for is that Gary Lewin and Slav figure out the winning formula in how to manage Andy and that we can squeeze 20+ games out of him!

With how desperate Villa seem to be getting after their horrendous start to the season, I can definitely see them getting bringing him in to turn it around!

Failing that I'm sure one another relegated/promoted to the prem clubs will take a punt on him come deadline day

With the damning result of just 125 goals in a total of 642 games...

29 apps 15 goals
