Bully Wee Villa Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 We were worse after the red card. The lack of goals is becoming a concern. Pretty meh all round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 When foregneirs dive they are labelled cheats, when it's an Englander they are 'anticipating contact'.Noble should have been sent off, regardless whether he claims for the penalty or not. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonHMFC Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Thought McGinn was average at best last night, lost possession a lot. In fact most of the Villa team did, seemed unable to string more than a couple of passes together. Grealish seemed to be better defensively than he did attacking. Was a really poor game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Moomintroll Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Monday night stalemate. Stones out for 4-5 weeks Rab, will this help or hinder your closest rivals for the title? Packed schedule ahead so with Laporte out until next year this might be a pivotal moment for you buggers to finally win it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a tough one for Liverpool this weekend just hoping they can keep this good start going. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 They even called City the best team in Europe lastnight. I mean.... By what measure? They finished ahead of the European champions domestically? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That still makes them best in England. If you arent taking it as winners of the European cup, then by what measure are they better than Barca or Juventus or Ajax? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you arent taking it as winners of the European cup, then by what measure are they better than Barca or Juventus or Ajax?Having a better season domestically than the Champions of Europe still makes a worthy argument for them being the best team in Europe, by what measure could you argue that Real Madrid, Barca or Juventus are better than Man City?

Melanius Mullarkey Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 It’s a bit like saying: Forfar draw with Dundee Utd Dundee Utd beat Barcelona Forfar are better than Barcelona. Fucking nonsense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s all about opinions when the teams aren’t in the same league. Well Liverpool are ahead of City in the league and were before the Norwich game. So what we are suggesting then is that last seasons final league positions are more relevant than the current league positions AND European cup performance?Naw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa won the European Cup in 1982 but finished 11th in the league, below the likes of Swansea and Southampton. I'm very delighted that we won it, but it's a a bit of a stretch to claim that we were the best team in Europe that year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its Guardiola/EPL fanboyism. Dont get me wrong, its not a big deal. Just a comment I thought was shite. You could say we have already spent longer on it than it deserves, but then where would this site be without pointless and petty arguments? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The season is only 5 matches in though, if you look at games won/goals difference etc over the last 12 months and compare City to Barcelona, Juventus etc then City will come out on top. I get what you’re saying about the annoying way the presenters on Sky sports chop and change their narrative depending on how well the English teams are doing in Europe but City and Liverpool are probably the 2 best teams in Europe just now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
