@postanythingLFC Done without gazillion pound players too. Grit, passion, determination, against a monster of a team.

@LFCTransferRoom Finally got corn rows 🔥

@deedna00 @beth_lindop All summer? Most were at the World Cup, w/1 in the final. No style? Have you even watched them?! It’s already 100x better than Slot. It takes time; he inherited a mess and most players are learning his system or new to the Prem. They’re not robots 🙄

[g a b y @GabyRoes]

@deedna00 @beth_lindop He inherited this team. Zero input on the poor LB & RB.

[g a b y @GabyRoes]

@Gunnerssociety The projection should be studied 🤡
Just last season, Arteta complained about the Puma Carabo Cup balls and uncut long grass. Believe he also complained about wind away at Aston Villa 🤣 Do you even watch your own team?!

[g a b y @GabyRoes]

@Carl_M79 I think the biggest difference is that Slotball sucked, and Iraola will be more fast, fun & entertaining. And yeah, I include Slots first season, even if we won the league…

Jon Champion you beauty, thank you for apparently being the only Brit who can pronounce Araujo’s name correctly - every syllable perfectly 🫡

All these lonely men talking with an AI bot bish. You fools are pathetic. I’d perhaps feel sorry for them if they didn’t likely blame women for their mediocrity.

@jasonmustian @TFLN Down 1 cent 🤦‍♀️

Cool, cool. Now do gas, coffee and just about everything else we need to live…

Brighton is my new fav club

@Simon_Roberts72 Hmm, seems you can’t read 🤣

[g a b y @GabyRoes]

@Simon_Roberts72 @dean_orme @robbohuyton Perhaps it’s the threat alone that moved the needle w/ Carragher’s employers like Sky, to insist on a retraction. Because while legally there is no case, financially the Villa anger could impact Sky’s advertising, viewership, etc. And THIS is where the power of the threat lies…

[g a b y @GabyRoes]

@SesanOjo69474 The problem with Carragher’s comments, is 90% of you haven’t seen the full interview…

But if you have and are still having a melt-down, then get a grip.

[g a b y @GabyRoes]

@Simon_Roberts72 @dean_orme @robbohuyton No shit, but my point was about THREATENING to sue… there are zero laws against using the threat of a lawsuit to influence a sad apology, which is the most Villa will get here.

@dean_orme @robbohuyton Anyone, and I mean ANYONE can ^threaten^ legally action. I’m American, so I know this well 🙄

Don’t think he’s wrong. But he’s also not entirely right. How does the Balon d’Or work where you award ONE PLAYER in a team sport, when there are no set criteria in a year where nobody truly stood out. Glad Kane won, but maybe it’s a Lifetime Achievement recognition here.

[SethOfficial @UTD_Seth001]

🚨Luis Enrique on Harry Kane winning the Ballon d’Or.

🎙️ Reporter: Luis, what was your reaction to Harry Kane being announced as this year’s Ballon d’Or winner?

🗣️ Luis Enrique: “Honestly, I didn’t watch the ceremony. We were playing a match, and my priority was my team. After our game, I checked my phone to see who had won, and I saw that Harry Kane had received the award.

“I was surprised. Very surprised.

“And I’ll be honest with you, I don’t believe he deserved to win it.

“I have said this before, and I will say it again: if we’re talking about the players who truly deserve this recognition, then I believe a Paris Saint-Germain player should have won it. Fabian Ruiz, Ousmane Dembélé or Vitinha. Those are the names I expected to see at the top.

“Harry Kane did not win the Champions League. Paris Saint-Germain won it.

“He wasn’t the Champions League’s top scorer either. Kylian Mbappé finished ahead of him.

“He didn’t win the World Cup. Fabian Ruiz was part of the team that lifted that trophy. And Mbappé was the leading scorer at the tournament.

“So I want somebody to explain the criteria to me. What exactly are we rewarding? Individual performances? Team achievements? Goals? Trophies? Consistency throughout the season?

“Because when you look at those achievements, I struggle to understand how Harry Kane came out ahead of the players I’ve mentioned.

“You cannot tell us that the Champions League is the biggest competition in club football, celebrate the team that wins it, celebrate the players who decide it, and then hand the biggest individual award to someone who didn’t even win that competition.”

“Let me be clear: Harry Kane is an excellent footballer. I have enormous respect for him. He’s a fantastic striker, he scores goals, he works for his team and he has had an outstanding career.

“But respecting a player doesn’t mean you have to agree that he deserves every individual award.

“Vitinha was exceptional. Fabian Ruiz was exceptional. Ousmane Dembélé had a season that deserves to be remembered. These players contributed to a team that achieved something extraordinary, and I believe their performances should have carried more weight.

“What concerns me is the message this sends to other footballers. You spend an entire season competing at the highest level, winning the biggest trophies and delivering in the most important matches, only to see the individual recognition go somewhere else.

“Of course, the Ballon d’Or is decided by voters, and everybody has their own opinion. But that doesn’t mean we cannot question the outcome.

“An award as prestigious as the Ballon d’Or must have a clear standard. Otherwise, players will start wondering whether what they achieve on the pitch actually matters.”

“I don’t want to take anything away from Harry Kane. Congratulations to him. He has won the award, and nobody can take that moment away from him.

“But if you ask me whether I agree with the decision, my answer is no.

“Footballers should be rewarded for what they actually achieve, not simply for the popularity of their name or the story surrounding their season.

“And when I look at the players who delivered for Paris Saint-Germain, I see footballers who had every reason to believe they could win this award.

“That’s why I’m questioning the decision. Not because Harry Kane is a bad player, but because I believe there were stronger candidates.

“If we can no longer agree on what makes a player worthy of the Ballon d’Or, then perhaps the bigger question is not who won it. It’s what exactly the award is supposed to represent.”

Literally 🤡 proving 🤡 @Carra23 🤡 right 🤡

And you (want to) call yourselves a big club?! 🤡

[Aston Villa @AstonVilla]

Aston Villa will initiate legal action against Jamie Carragher for his unacceptable insults about the Club and its fans.

Aston Villa will not allow anyone to stop our ascension in English and European football.

Nassef Sawiris, Chairman

[g a b y @GabyRoes]

@AstonVilla @TaintlessRed It’s just… words? Where’s the “stopping the ascension?!”

Just prove him wrong 🤷‍♀️

[g a b y @GabyRoes]

@centrekop Hold on was this TODAY?! He said that same shit about Arsenal last season and I applauded it because they’re Corner FC. But he can’t recycle that comment today. No, sorry, NO.
