    No what is the reality is that you are expecting a 25-30 year old ronaldo doing ballon d'or things at 39. It was an incredible game from both sides alot of occasions but sadly luck wasn't on the side of Portugal vs France.

    Im more worried about Anges Tottenham team next season, and Newcastle in top 4 race, than I am about UTD of Chelsea! Villa wont fear anyone in Champs League either! No-one will run right through us, or embarass us either. Losing to Olympiakos in semi was as bad as it will ever get under under Unai, and accepted that no problem, we know Unai neefs another year to get team fully where he wants it. Next season will be a massive challenge in Prem and Champs League! Crazy to think the FA Cup and League Cup are Villas back up trophy options now! 😂😮

    Wes Edens backed a basketball coach against mainstream views, and Milwaukee Bucks won the NBA Championship 3 years later! Unai wont even consider leaving until he's won a Trophy! And whtn are Villa are challenging for ALL Major Trophies, it would only be a massive contract offer AND "Club Control" by Real Madrid or Barcelona thst could possibly tempt him, but even that is at least 3-5 years away! He loves the Club, the bsckong his has from Owners and fans, and control of the project! He loves building the team and project! I dont think he will EVER get such job satisfaction anywhere else! He experience at Arsenal have actually helped Vills, as he now knows the pitfalls of an impatient Club and fans! Hes had to deal with Primadonnas like Mbappe and Abumayang, and he still got PSG / Arsenal to Major finals and won Trophies with chaos going on inside both clubs! At Villa he has the best working environment at the most rock stable financially heeled Club in World Football! On top of that, its one of rhe most traditional, historic, and beautiful clubs behind the scenes too! Absolute magic, class! Unai and Villa are one of those rare things in sport where all the parts fit perfectly. Ten Hag and Pocchetino must be worn out with stress trying to calm down on a beach somewhere mentally frazzled, while Unai is chilled at a table somewhere, possibly on a Super Yacht off the Egyptian coast in the Mediterranean, handling dome transfer business on his phone, excitedly waiting to return to work with an ever growing developing team 100% on board with his philosophy!

    To WIN the Euros Southgate would somehow need to get rid of most of the squads of Portugal, Spain and France which are all better than his no matter who he picks, and hope Germany somehow forget how to play football. To play well he'd need his players to turn up fit, listen to instructions, and show some backbone and leadership, the bravery to get on the ball instead of running away from it and hiding from the game, flapping their arms around and whining. They don't want to get stuck in and it shows horribly, they think they're France or Spain and can turn up and do what they want. But we aren't. This is what Southgate understands that has really helped us, but everyone seems now suddenly to have forgotten again, is that England is historically bang average. We've never achieved anything. This is the first sustained period of being competitive we've EVER had. EVER. So we don't actually know fuck all about winning international tournaments, as a nation, and the only person who understands that is suddenly getting all this stick for setting the team up to play with humility. But we really need that. And everyone who turns around and says "But we've got Bellingham and Foden!" or whatever, you are deluded and wrong, and saying the same things that England fans said before watching Gazza and Barnes get knocked out of tournaments, or Gerrard and Lampard, and so on. Because the players, the coaches, the fans, all of us, we just don't get it. We don't understand. We fucking suck. We have to play like we know we fucking suck. We have to play the Southgate way or we have no chance.

    Over the last 25 years Spain have had their golden era team, and then this current team with a break in between. I truly think this current Spanish team could play Italy 50 times and not lose with current players. However , I do see an Italy comeback in the next 6/8 years, same type of Timeframe it took the Germans after losing many players also

    What was wrong with Foden ? Does he need a call from Pep? Re. 2nd half. Having listened to GS interview afterwards he referred heavily on training around "staying compact without the ball". My theory is that GS might have taken the opportunity to 'test' playing with out the ball. he is cleverer than we give him credit for, wanted to give experience for playing without ball, i.e. against someone like Spain. If keeper doesnt pull off a worldy we win 2-0 and we just move on to next.

    It's increasing our ffp massively if it's just a swap plus the money as the market of the player coming in is used as part of ffp profits which I do believe that's going to be the case Juve want's less of an amortised cost as possible as the Italian league isn't exactly the most profitable they tend to do this type of deal alot because of it. So with Iling Jr,Weston and the fee it's working out around 60m for ffp with two players effectively on a free for us. Juve only pay what a few million a year as it's a lower actual fee they get two players off the book to cover the wages so it works for all involved. Gallagher deal is reliant on Luiz or Durán being sold we ain't getting him without a sale. Durán seems like he's distracted and they put in a massive bid so cash in on him bring in Gallagher and have Archer as backup striker for next season.

    I agree. The model that your club is using now is proving successful and I think there is a succession plan in place now for promising players that may leave and in the past I don't think that's really been the case. Your recruitment has been great the last couple of years. Exciting times for palace fans! I can certainly see a top half finish for sure.

    You could say that Martinez has probably been the only successful signing out of the lot. So if he's having input(which he has and a lot of the players he's brought in are players he's already managed) with the recruitment then you have to say he's partly responsible. I think there are some aspects he's been hamstrung by; like the fees spent on certain players. I'm not convinced over some of the names united are being linked with and with the lack of options out there, I wouldn't be against giving him another season. - Dave
