  1. The heavy one with the big red beard? That would be something.
  2. Signing before July 1 doesn’t really matter though, only a couple of weeks out of a five year contract would be amortized in 23/24, basically peanuts.
  3. https://amp.theguardian.com/football/article/2024/jun/12/douglas-luiz-unai-emery-aston-villa-brazil-football
  4. Hungary’s winner looked like a close offside call. In Englamd VAR would have checked the goal for 10 painful minutes. With this semi-automatic business, they just automatically assume it’s onside and don’t even mention it.
  5. One of the few words not to start with a capital letter is ”huge”.
  6. We’ll replace Dougie with three players and get Purslow in to make another video clip.
  7. Yeah, they’d be much better off with a dependable, humble team player like Jhon.
  8. We also have a whole bunch of goalkeepers, but noone feels like a solid no2.
  9. Not just for the here and now tbf, most or all players rumoured to come in this summer are young. The manager only signing for the here and now was Gerrard, who couldn’t get enough of expensive 29 year olds on high wages.
  10. We’ve been following Duran closely for years.We had talks with his boyhood coach in Colombia. However, recent reports he may actually be a pain in the arse have come to our attention.
  11. Matt Law is a Chelsea reporter, and a Villa fan, so would obviously be deeply into this.
  12. ”Cannot coach” keywords there. Doesn’t seem easy to handle. Nice challenge for Maresca.
  13. McKennie has a good engine and gets up and down the pitch. Good presser and a workhorse. He’s basically a more central Matty Cash.
  14. Maybe, maybe not. Rogers was spotted by Emery. Iling-Junior is a player who happens to be surplus at the club we’re currently dealing with, so not exactly hand picked.
  15. Don't worry, we hardly ever get penalties. We're not Chelsea.
  16. With Martinez and Maupay in the same team we would at least win the shithousery world cup.
  17. And those 3 years normally make a huge difference in player valuations.
  18. Barca have that problem all the time yes, but they’re still a huge name. Which means players put up with all kinds of shit just to be able to stay, or to get a move there. ”No wages and the home fans will still call me a traitor? Count me in!”
  19. I hate this window already. Had a feeling we might not net spend this summer, and lose a couple of favourites. Swapping Dougie for McKennie with a measly 15-20 million on top is exactly the kind of horror I was dreading.
  20. Lots of clubs net spend on players and post losses. Villa too.
  21. He can’t seem to get involved when he plays for England, had just 13 touches when he was subbed. With Villa he’s usually the main man, constantly involved, linking up or carrying the ball. It’s obviously because the teams have different instructions but it won’t make Ollie look better.
  22. Also having some injured players back tbf.
  23. Man City have been the best team in the world for a couple of years, but this season? Nah. Very effective beating Burnley and Sheffield, but their record against better teams this season has been weak. Nowhere near as good as last season.
  24. Poor Sule. He is big, but you know what? If he wasn’t very very fit he’d never play at this level. Bonus info: he’s also a really fast runner.
