Magnanimous in (a treble) defeat as always? I love you Hungarian Shed Guy.

Haha.
I'll be unstoppable now I have Buyatelly up front. He was a bargain. I wonder why?

Oops.....I've said too much

New season, same result. I'm off to tidy up my tache and spruce up my perm before the weekend.

So what's that head-to-head business about then? Apparently you beat me last week Johnny, ah well good game good game.

I promised myself I'd more risks this season (or gambles at any rate), so Rodriguez as captain, definite hat-trick at home to Everton (soz Fiendy) coming up. And once everything's settled down I might even bring myself to risk starting a GW on minus points, insane a proposition as that is for low scoring squad members.

Whatever happens, I'll be paying more attention this season. And chortling as Howard keeps fishing the ball out of his net on Saturday.

Does Tim Sherwood actually listen to himself before he opens his mouth?
On the Traore signing today

He's physically a man - and he has been for some time

Wut?

Team sheets coming soon...

& the site's updating.
*drum roll*...............

#AVFC XI to play #MUFC: Guzan, Bacuna, Richards, Clark, Amavi, Veretout, Gueye, Westwood, Ayew, Agbonlahor, Sinclair.

#mufc XI: Romero, Darmian, Smalling, Blind, Shaw, Carrick, Schneiderlin, Mata, Memphis, Januzaj, Rooney.

And so it begins... Good luck all!

'mon Villa!

Rodriguez on the bench

Wanyama starts.
Just looking at Rooney's stats from last night.
Not very impressive were they?
& I bet no-one picked Januzaj.

Rooney was absolutely awful last night. With only Chicarito as back up I bet LVG is scanning the lists of available strikers right now. I'd happily send him Super Mario.

It's odd isn't it?
When Chicarito actually got a game at Really Sadrid, he would usually score. I seriously don't get why he doesn't get more games. I'd soil myself if I had to mark the bloke.

I bet Nik's got a big grin going on right now

Just saw this on twitter

Oh dear all snowballing for Advocaat.

I think you have to be quite old to understand that joke.

Oi!
I resemble that remark!

The swings of fantasy football.

The number of managers with the West Ham keeper has more than trebled since last weekend. Then this happens:


Late drama as West Ham goalkeeper Adrian is sent off! He was up for a corner, and was watching the ball drop as he stuck his boot into an opponent's chest. Red card.

The Spuds had a bit of a crash today.
Good job they have that seatbelt on their shirt

Up to second in the Classic League after last night, a double for Lukaku at lunchtime and then down to East End Park to see the Pars win 7-1. If Carlsberg did footie weekends ...
