Anyone pulling their hair out after THREE games is insane. We're playing well ... let things blend and we'll be more than fine.

Hands up ... I'm a big Webber fan still! I admire his long term thinking and bullish focus. He's making us a far stronger club from the roots up and I find it amusing that, for some reason, he isn't allowed to make an error of judgement when the rest us are. We'll miss him hugely when he's gone.

He's only good at running at scrambling defences on a counter attack ... that will happen extremely rarely this season.

Archer coming in??? Do you mean Ramsey?

Only 8 weeks is fantastic news!

Got to resist chipping long balls into their box ... that's bread and butter to Wigan. Must be patient like a Farke team and tire thfm out with fizzed passes on the deck.

No Gibbs is far more conservative.

A Villa geek friend of mine says he's a number 10 who can play as a striker.

Just because he's not flashy or speedy doesn't mean that he's not been vital ... and will be.

Yes please, I really want another DM in the building regardless of Hayden's return date.

Let's delay judgement until we see a midfield of Sara, Hayden and Nunez. I think Hayden is utterly key ... and personally wish we had bought in another DM to back him up.

Let's see what his midfield of Sara, Hayden and Nunez will bring before we get the pitch forks out!

Let's see what the new midfield - Sara, Hayden & Nunez will bring. Add Dowell into the mix and we should have more creativity in the future.

Need to stop being toothless really quickly!

As Farke used to say - win the battle first and then let the quality rise to the surface. We're in a good place here ... just need to ensure that we don't get frustrated and lose composure.

A comfortable Burnley win I think ... the Terriers have lost their manager and some top talent (especially Sinani!) and won't be the same this season.

Get this over the line please Webber!

I'm still struggling to determine what precisely he 'is'. I like him and am desperate for it to click for the lad but I'm still figuring him out. Those more in the know ... can you name a couple of other players past or present (including from other clubs) that you would liken him to???

The problem for Max is that decent right backs are pretty easy to find when the world's your oyster and you have the bank balance of a Premier League club. Throw into the mix that you are the hottest assest of a financially stable Norwich City and you can see why he's unlikely to move on any time soon.

Okay, hear me out here, I would say - yes, Smith's what we need. The attraction of Farke was his extremely narrow / idealistic approach. It was dead easy for us fans to see exactly what he wanted us to do, and that was exhilarating, BUT it was darn obvious to our Premier League opponents too. After we dared to beat Man City we were worked out and unpicked. Smith prefers a more flexible, robust, English style which will serve us better in the long run. We will be more adaptable and better moulded for top flight football. He's a very bright guy - have patience ... it'll work out in the end.

Yes, you would hire Normann without hesitation but he's far too good for tier 2 football, he knows it ... he won't go anywhere near it!

This would be insane if it happened on so many levels! Surely just a bizarrely made up rumour!!!

Good luck Christos!

I understood that he wasn't keen on moving abroad but I could be wrong!

I sense his heart wouldn't have been in a 2nd tier marathon so no great loss ... nice saving on wages too I would guess.
