Leicester striker Jamie Vardy has been rewarded for his goal-scoring form with his own personal flavour of crisp. The limited edition Vardy Salted flavour will be available to all fans at the King Power Stadium on Monday when Leicester take on Chelsea. (Sun) Wow! The LCFC bosses sure do know how incentivize their stars!
That we didn't manage to stick at least one goal past that crap defence of theirs' should possibly be cause for concern, yes!
We shouldn't be too hard on ourselves. We were still carrying some injuries to key players, and we hadn't hit our stride. From United's perspective, they played us at the best possible time. Arrogant red Mancs would have thought LVG was a god! They know different, now, of course.
I don't know! He behaves like most gods Full of grandiose promises and delivers nothing but **** and disappointment. Yes LVG is probably a god.
Villa are in a right state...a goal down in 8 minutes, Hutton being as crap as ... Hutton, No sense of passion or urgency on the pitch, massive amounts of empty seats, no win in 14 matches with 11 defeats in those matches, and they ain't beaten the goons at home in 17 years It would be an act of kindness just to relegate them today
No not Villa who are, at least, trying to play football, I'd rather see WBA go, taking their anti-football with them. Hutton being transferred to a more suitable club can go with WBA.
Watching villa is like watching a 3 legged horse start the national...you know it's cruel but you can't take your eyes off the unfolding horror
2-0 now. They're finally a goner. They've been flirting with relegation for years now and I think it would do them the world of good. Look at how Watford and Leicester, Palace etc. are doing. Went down, spent a good 5+ consolidating in the Championship, and came back up stronger and, most importantly, more sensibly run than ever before. Villa have a big enough fan base and name to bounce back, it's a matter of when rather than if.
Arsenal didn't need to even get into 2nd gear ... have not seen a team this bad since the Sunderland and Derby ones from the early to mid 2000s
To say that Arsenal are playing a competitive match against this Villa side is the same as saying that a champion boxer is putting his belt on the line in a fight against a punch-bag!
The real problem for managers of clubs like Villas, Sunderland and Newcastle, is that there are so very excuses left for a run of poor form, now that we have the likes of Leicester doing so well with only about half the resources of those clubs.
More than anything else, a few years ago their academy was producing some decent players like Gary Cahill or Steven Davis - yet in the last few years their academy hasn't produced much (Grealish aside) while at the same time Birmingham City have started to produce some good youngsters like Jack Butland and Nathan Redmond.
I spoke to someone on Saturday morning that was going up to Oldham to watch Millwall play there. 11 o'clock train to Manchester, then a tram to the town at about 1, find a pub and have a few before the game. It was called off at 1.30! That's ridiculous. Coaches left at 8am, got there at about 1.40pm and had to turn around and come straight back. It'll be rearranged as a midweek game too, so it's a **** trip then, as well.
