Very interesting article in the i paper today in support of Mings and questioning Gerard's attitude towards him. Last season we had the third best defensive record outside the top 4 and Mings started 36 of those games. If Gerard is going to start a 'it's him or me' campaign, then I know who I'm backing ?

Agree0 Disagree0

What fans may be overlooking is that Mings is not fully fit as he is suffering from a groin strain and SG would be irresponsible if he played him.

Another rumour today that Watkins and Gerrard don’t see eye to eye, quickly dismissed by the Comms director but not seen anything by either Gerrard or Watkins disputing the rumour. This on top of stripping Mings of the captaincy and subsequently dropping him suggests not all is well behind the scenes. Maybe the rumour that Gerrard has lost the dressing room are not as far fetched as I first thought.

Why should Gerrard comment on these rumours? As far as I can remember he never has in the past.

10 Aug 2022 18:50:02
He doesn’t need to comment on them,it’s absolutely his prerogative whether he does or he doesn’t however if it is total bulls*** then I don’t understand why it’s not nipped in the bud by both manager and player particularly with the noise around Mings at the moment, remaining silent just fuels speculation as o am here I guess ?

Lord, there were many rumours about Villa players and what they allegedly thought about McGin.
Did he comment about that? If he did then I must have missed it so he is at least being consistent.

People need to stop believing everything you hear or read on the click bait articles, if everything we read was true we would have signed more players than our Raj has suggested that we buy, for instance gerrard was going to buy at least 4 rangers players this year, we bought or bidded on zero rangers players, maginn was being sold for 50 million, Chuck was going to every European power house club they could think of and the only club not mentioned was Chelsea and hey presto that’s where he ended up and we knew nothing till the deal was all but done, Doug was going to Milan, cash was going to Madrid, Watkins was going to arsenal all BS stories, there ain’t no news like bad news, all the papers want is drama and I’m surprised so many guys here are swallowing it.

Aka, he might be being consistent but it’s potentially a worrying trend first Mings and now Watkins it makes you wonder whose next.

11 Aug 2022 08:03:11
The problem for me is actually the glaringly obvious lack of consistency.
"Coutinho needs to feel loved and he will get back to his best eventually"
"Mings needs to get back to his best and then I might give him a chance"
I think he's spending way too much time on social media and scapegoating those targeted by the mob. Targett, Mings and now Watkins are all suffering because of it.

Ings, Whack sums it up very well for me and will not comment any further on this.

11 Aug 2022 09:41:34
Aka/Whack, I sincerely hope you are both right, and I do get the bit about rumours being exactly that but I don’t remember such whisperings when Deano was in charge or Bruce for that matter so I just wonder why now if there’s nothing to it

Interpreting football 'news' these days is like interpreting data in many ways, if you look hard enough you'll be able to find something that supports whatever argument/perspective you have.
The honest truth is that nobody knows on here. I doubt there's ever been a manager that hasn't upset a few players. It would be wierd if he hadn't, that's the nature of elite sports.
Most on here have agreed that Villa will be mid-table ish, so by definition when should expect erratic results at times and inconsistent performances. That's not to say we don't want better, but expecting and wanting are two different things. If we all have a meltdown or even over analyse after every performance it's going to be a long season.

Deano and Bruce picked the same team every week so there was nothing for the press to latch on to.
