We could just make him the mascot. Give him a big fuzzy suit and lion's head and fly him around Europe.

I've watched a few videos and I can't say he looks particularly exciting. Granted, the nature of his position has something to do with that, but he's not got any real noticeable flair or even fluidity to his movement. He looks a little raw. I'll defer to the Ligue 1 experts on him and hope I'm missing something. Kondogbia for example looks really impressive in video comps.

Yeah, what I mean is we're in good shape even if Gerrard fails. At the very least he's a useful name to attract better players. Jury still out on his managerial acumen.

Such a strange experience watching that. No butterflies or pressure...but a desire to win obviously against the odds. Being part of such an intense spectacle but not really caring about the outcome too much. And we played so well for 70 minutes scoring 2 blinders. I was giddy there for a while. But then the pathetic disappointment that we've seen so many times. It's really embarrassing. I cared but didn't care watching that. I never expected to be up 2-0. But we were and couldn't win. Ah **** it. Some people want next season to start right away. I don't. I need a break.

Worst case scenario is we sign a handful of really good players but Gerrard can't make it work and he's sacked. Players remain at Villa, new and improved manager takes over.

People shouldnt expect Kamara to somehow make us Champions League shoe-ins. He's a good young player who will need to learn a new system with new teammates in a new League.

Not sure how he kicks on with that team. He's not going to be a big part of anything they do. Still the wrong club.

Annoying transition season. Thank **** it's over!

Better upside/sell on value with Ollie. Sell Ings, keep Ollie but sign a new striker to be the first choice. Let Ollie fight for his place. In the meantime we need someone who could have buried those 1v1's today.

Reminded us why we need him with that goal today. World class.

Dazzling signings by Gerrard in Digne, Coutinho and Kamara. Chambers a nice one too. This is why Gerrard gets a lot of leeway from me. No Gerrard and these players don't even think about signing for Villa.

Confounding lack of ability at the worst possible moments. Really hope he's banished to the bench and becomes an understudy to someone better.

Quick whistle at the end, too. He never accounted for Foden and Ederson time wasting.

Sad capitulation on the world stage. Wasted performance. Sickening failure. Thank God it doesn't matter. But it would have been so sweet to deny them. Just shows how naive Villa are, and how good City are. Ollie Watkins squandered two 1v1's against their keeper which would have put the game to bed. Case in **** point why we need to find a top drawer finisher, or at least hope that Archer can somehow step into that role. Really good, organized performance for most of the game. Wonderful goals by Cash and Coutinho. But Cash burned twice at the back post. Really poor defending at critical moments. But fair play to City for not giving up and having the quality to make their chances count. Exciting final game for us, despite the collapse. Bring on the Kamara signing and preseason. UTV

I just have audio. Olsen having a mare?

Microplastics?

Tyler > Drury

Up The Villa

Moretto not Romano

He's got a lot of credibility.

Boner time.

Why does Van Der Beek not play? Is he just not very good?

I've had to recalibrate my opinion of Everton supporters this season. Really vile people doing vile things. I wish they didn't escape relegation.

Depends if we sell one or two players on the bubble.
