Nobody argued he was *the* problem.

That doesn’t rid Amorim of all accountability, at all, but to get this group of players, who seemingly have zero professional pride, to step up their game and use their brain was never going to work. Disastrous decisions and performances from top to bottom. We are absolutely fucked.

Now the season is a write off anyway and the manager has been tainted. A fresh start last summer or this summer, following appropriate signings and departures, would have given Amorim a chance. Set up to fail in these conditions.

I understand the decision to bring in the first choice replacement mid-season rather than waiting until the summer and likely writing off the season with an interim. But when that manager has a super specific style of play and won’t let him sign anyone? Madness 😂

🥱

Again, entirely irrelevant. You keep saying things which have literally nothing to do with what I just said. Is there a mute function in this app? Have this conversation with yourself rather than in my mentions 👋😂

My opinion? It’s Rashford’s opinion. On the day he signed for them he confirmed he had no interest in playing for them beyond a few months. He’s there cos they are the only club that would pay a portion of his wages. And he won the FA Cup a few months ago. The distant past is any Villa success.

Entirely irrelevant. You asked how his current situation is bad for him. If you think him playing for a club on loan that he doesn’t want to stay at, after none of the clubs he actually wants to play for wanted to pay his wages, is a good thing, then I’m not sure what to say. It *obviously* isn’t.

A few months ago he was moved to tears after beating City to lift the FA Cup with his boyhood club. Leaving under a cloud to experience playing in Barcelona or Milan is one thing. But Aston Villa?! What a cock up. It didn’t have to be like this.

As it is, he’s stuck with a commute Birmingham playing for a team who hasn’t won anything in his lifetime. He’s already confirmed he has no interest in being there beyond the summer. He must be wondering how the fuck he’s ended up in this situation.

He hasn’t played well for ages so it’s understandable a cost-cutting ownership would want to move his £300k a week off the books. But he had to think, when responding with that interview, that he would have enjoyed the choice of a few top European sides as a result.

He’s joined a club he has no interest in playing for beyond a couple of months cos he literally had no other choice if he was going to play football.

He thought he was going to Barca and he’s ended up at a club that haven’t won a single trophy in his lifetime.

Would’ve worked without the seer. It was nailed on before that.
