Tobias Figueiredo plays a dangerous pass across his own backline, it's collected by Maikel Kieftenbeld, but the German's chip lands on top of the net. Kieftenbeld usually misses the target.....even with a pen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brum could have scored 2 or 3 already here He's my mates nephew. He told me ages ago that his nephew plays football at weekends. Then one week he said he had a big game or something. I said is it a cup final? He said "No, I think they're playing Aston Villa" Kinell, I thought he was on about some Sunday league game. Now he's scored against the English Benfica!

Pearl Ram Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I’m very glad to read that VFRM, I started to watch it thinking it might be decent and the Mrs kicked off...Coronation Street is on instead, the lengths I will go to for a bit of P & Q. ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbados Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Pulis is the ultimate championship manager, his style, ethos and personnel he brings in is exactly how you get out of the championship It ain’t pretty, but it’s bloody effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoof ball doesn't work as well in the premier league and I like how Lampard's getting us to play in a style that will suit the Prem so if we can go up we can be similar to Bournemouth and play good football and at the same time stay up. I hate to see football being turned into a rugby style hit and run , it's boring and will never achieve anything much in the top level of football.

Pulis took stoke up and kept them there for years, at one point they were actually a pretty decent outfit who quite regularly beat the likes of Arsenal and Man Utd. Nobody wanted to play them at home, they were a notoriously big old unit who’d bully teams around the pitch. Boro are turning into that now and they will be promoted because of it this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking that as I posted, but they 've sort of evolved into a team who plays some decent football unlike when they were in the championship, Dyche football is nowhere near as Ugly as Pulis football.

May Contain Nuts Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Last night's 0-0 leaves Derby, Forest & Villa as the only teams who've scored in every league match so far this season (including cup matches it's just us and forest) Let's hope after today's fixtures it's just us.

Cjay Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Boro will be up there this season. Pulis set up defensively and tried to nick it with set pieces. Not pleasant to watch but they are the total opposite of us and we struggled because of it. Last season we would have lost to that style. This season we got a draw, 3rd clean sheet in 6 games and the only side to stop Boro scoring. We missed Pablo, needed his intelligence to raise his teammates and unlock Boro.

therealhantsram Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Villa have had some crap results recently. Struggling to draw against Reading and Ipswich. Losing to Burton in midweek and the drubbing against The Blades today. Not sure if Tammy played... But they need something to sort them out. Bruce needs to be careful... He could get the boot soon.
