By "weeks", presumably you mean the proverbial 2-3.Quote:

Is Saliba is back for Villa, that would be great. The rest are perfectly manageable in the current context.Quote:

I assume he won't risk Saliba against Brentford but will have him back for Villa.Quote:

Right. But this season, they could. Or rather, any defender we actually currently have could.Quote:

So we no longer do.
Dear God, remember when we were signing the likes of Cedric and Mari? Now we have Benny Blanc and Hinchappy a cover at RB and LCH.Quote:

It's an incredible long way in 5 or so years.Quote:

Now, other than Big Gabby, they've all gone other than our 50 mil ball-playing CH being 2nd choice RB and perhaps 4th choice RCH.
The moment I loved Gabby was when we were playing woefully at the start of his career with us and it looked like MA could get sacked. He'd been the one positive. He was defending well when everyone else was atrocious. And when we were losing in one game, as opposed to just trying to keep doing his job well, he got the ball on the edge of our box and just tried to score goal single-handedly. He started charging up field and skipped past about 4 players before getting tackled. He seemed to be saying that if no-one else was gonna try, he'd do it on his own.
Btw, did you see the Chav's goal from the corner was offside?
