Credit to John Eustace for yesterday’s result, very badly treated at brum and got Blackburn who were many peoples favourites for relegation just outside playoffs six points from Boro away and us at home shows they are playing well just now.
Think with Amps on that pitch today (AO) in front of him we do not lose that game, we knew it was a tough run of fixtures and their postponed game left them fresher than us.
That being said EKB does make some good points around player rotation and timing of substitutions.
Frustrating but only three points of top in November is not horrendous but Farkey does have to change his approach if we are to get the best out of what I believe is still the best squad in the league.
Personally, I would move heaven and earth to get Evan Ferguson on loan in January, a 10 is great, but you still need a striker to finish them off. A proper 9 with our quality of wingers already in situ is my preferred way to go.

I agree class. With a proper dm in there we probably would have had more control. For all of Aos good midfield play he is not a good defender. Penalty today and lost marker for their 1st last week.
We just didn't get control of the midfield and didn't build any real pressure.
Piroe was poor again. Dj was quiet didn't have the service. Aaronson was ineffective and made the wrong choices too many times.
A draw maybe would of been fair.

Bottom line
1) it was a low quality match in a low quality Champo . ALL teams in this season Champo are wayyy below EPL quality level
2) Farke increasingly being found out as quite a limited ability coach totally unable to remedy SAME issues that also existed last year
3) IF we do go up we are definitely going to need a considerable upgrade on ( twice failure in EPL) Farke for what for sure would be a tough quest to stay up!
01 Dec 2024 16:29:06
One two staged question and this goes to Baz and George…… If you could sack Farke (which you would) who would you replace him with out of who is available?, and why do you think they would come to us?
01 Dec 2024 16:49:43
NLR
but quite gratifying to see Villa fans go into meltdown with their run of mostly terrible performances and defeats.
01 Dec 2024 17:07:22
Boring regurgitated ? crap Baz, the only one that getting found out is you with your constant drivel about Farke and Meslier, you are a BORING read!
01 Dec 2024 17:16:23
So Leicester, Ipswich and Southampton are Premiership quality? It is extremely likely those three teams are coming back down.
You do talk some twaddle at times Baz.
01 Dec 2024 17:29:43
Bottom line, I’ll just make the same 3 points I always make……. just in case anyone missed ‘em.
01 Dec 2024 18:23:06
Baz worst poster in the group best taken with a pinch of salt and ignored
Shane he brings a good group down.
01 Dec 2024 18:32:59
Berma we rarely agree . that's life ?.
01 Dec 2024 19:13:58
Woody How do you form conclusion I'd sack Farke when I post on this page I would not? The answer is to get the man a CAM.
01 Dec 2024 19:43:43
Georgey indeed . but that's the confused Woodster for yer.
01 Dec 2024 19:45:44
Baz best poster in the group best taken literally he posts what he likes and he likes what he posts.
Pleasing he exposes the rose coloured spectacle wearers.
01 Dec 2024 20:15:12
Woodster I’m guessing you’re the original Woody?
If so nice to have you back mate.
01 Dec 2024 20:40:38
Baz fair play for running two different accounts on this page, must take ages to be both baz and George
Out of interest which alisa does mrs baz prefer?
01 Dec 2024 21:36:39
Thank you Georgey bro?
Cheesey, very unoriginal Bermo.
01 Dec 2024 21:57:24
Cheers Corky and Brighty, in all honesty I never left as I always read the posts. I love reading yours, OP’s, Brighty’s, Alf’s, MG’s, Aus, Bermo and many more it’s just I can’t cope with all the repetitive, negative drivel from Baz, even George’s post are good it’s just them two are like so stuck together! I hate the rose tinted comments all because we love our team! They are dining more of the questions that excludes everyone else on here, maybe Ed should give them their own site then they can put love hearts after their comments.
And when we win the committee never compliment the performance before they hand out the negatives, it really is like Groundhog Day with him, George is ok until he gets into the Baz mode!
All in all it’s still a good site but by god there is some very crappy negative rubbish on here, 4 times I’ve now asked Baz on here who he would replace Farke with and who would stand in for Meslier, still waiting for a response.
Unlike before I will post now and again but I’m not letting it wind me up! Has anybody noticed that Baz gets all the crap from many posters on here yet all of those posters don’t give crap to anyone else? So what’s the common denominator here? Just a thought!
All the best lads ???.
01 Dec 2024 22:24:38
Woodster take a deep breath hun in all your confusion ;
You be mistaken on these threads below we have both Aus and MOTagain stating they would sack Farke
Yet Woody rather than you pertinently ask them ( also) your " Farke replacement question" you are obsessed by Georgey and I ?
By the way I have answered your question dear ?.
01 Dec 2024 22:28:34
And Woodster. not that in any way do I covet your praise etc . far, far from it
But I suggest you re-read your posts over the years because on numerous times you stated I was to quote you " a good poster" . even this year 2024!
01 Dec 2024 23:19:30
Absolutely correct Baz, I have stated on numerous times about you being a good poster and at times you are, but by god you really are infuriating some times! Have you ever wondered why so many posters get on at you? You may post some good stuff now and again, but you really can’t help yourself being a divvy and winding others up!
Just be a normal poster, get a grip and for instance look at Saturday on live chat, there used to be loads on there commenting on the match but loads have gone, why? ?♂️??♂️?.
02 Dec 2024 00:57:47
. over past 7 years between say 3 to 11 or 12.pretty regular number
Last time against Blackburn there was regulars OB, Prime, Georgey and myself. Corky 1980,chris and Dougie also commented. that is 8
You have been on once in past 5 years Woody. don't be shy . and keep it real fella ?.
02 Dec 2024 01:30:07
Woody Let me make perfectly clear why I criticize Farke.
He has many strengths and I don't especially care for his style of play but I understand his philosophy and it's excellent when we do get beat it's only by a goal and not what we witnessed in the EPL. However, the following is what grates:
1. Insufficient rotation. Yes fixture congestion so why not rotate because you can see it coming? It's called a calendar and basic math.
2. Knowledge in advance of the usual suspects setting up with a low block. So why not cater to that, introduce variation and flexibility tactically and not lose the game one nil?
3. His overall intransigence.
Cure or even just somewhat mitigate these issues and my misgivings about him evaporate.
Oh and drop Baracus and Bambi. They're stagnating us.
Oh and finally as for my support of Baz, it's because he tells the truth. Every now and again, we disagree slightly but I'd say he's right 95% of the time.
Tell me I'm wrong with the issues identified? I want my LUFC ?? manager to be perfect. High bar perhaps unrealistic but not rotating enough in a fixture pile up cardinal sin imo. Crew is a decent player for instance.
02 Dec 2024 08:31:26
I think some points are valid Baz. You just brush off or ignore the posts which suggest that your repetition, flip flopping, and overall domination in post numbers of virtually every thread, is ruining the site. Even at older stages in life, lessons can be learned.
It takes two years to learn to talk, but 65 to learn to shut the eff up……
I also agree that George does produce some very good posts, but ruins it with this Baz love in and private chat room cack.
02 Dec 2024 10:38:54
. I don't ignore any points Brighteth but why should one agree with points one doesn't agree with.
02 Dec 2024 11:04:59
Well, of course “one” isn’t going to agree with posts that suggest “one” is repetitive, a flip flopper, overly negative, and bore many of us. But, feedback is the breakfast of champions, or so they say.
Do you also refer to yourself as “one” when at the pub, or with mates ordering a few pints? Or is one being a bit pretentious too?
02 Dec 2024 11:22:26
Pretentious? Moi? ?.
02 Dec 2024 11:29:09
Brighteth you do like to repetively critique myself and George with your SAME boring repetive points.
We know what ypu think . thanks!
02 Dec 2024 15:09:17
Baz doesn't tell the truth though George. He twists everything that he and everybody else says to make him seem right in any given situation. From your posts I attached a degree of intelligence to you as a person but if you cannot see that then maybe I am wrong.
02 Dec 2024 15:56:47
CHALLENGE for Alfonzo Cuppa ?
Ok give 3 specific eamples of where ' I don't tell the truth' .
. its just you re peddling your erroneous dodgy narrative.
