Kbdrum88 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 I literally refrained from commenting on this hoping some how it would fall through. I'm more upset by this then when jack left, even though he was held in high regard it was underrated for how he made things tick. I hope we meet juventus in the champions league final and he gets a standing ovation. You're gonna be missed Dougie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas10 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Just an idea of what we are losing and will miss if we don’t adequately replace him: Douglas Luiz is the Aston Villa player who in the last two Premier League seasons has created the most goalscoring opportunities (98), sent teammates shooting most times following set pieces (42), made the most tackles (130 ), intercepted the most balls (63).

Lord Willard Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Probably our most talented person on our team with the ball. Man made hard things look easy. Never injured. At this moment I’m worried for our midfield but we’ve got the summer to find a replacement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post briny_ear Posted June 30 Popular Post Share Posted June 30 What an absolutely brilliant signing he was and what a fantastic team member over the past 5 or so years. He brought creativity, art, skill and optimism to the side. I understand why he has to go but it's hard not to be sad. Think he was a great team player on top of all his individual skills. Glad he is not going to any of our prem rivals at least. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBlack Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Farewell Dougie, go smash in it Italy but feel free to go missing when we play you in the a champions league. Now Monchi, get finalising that replacement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted June 30 Popular Post Share Posted June 30 (edited) As one who's been trying to keep the composure and downplay the exit somewhat, must admit... The finality or it and farewell video is quite depressing FFS Under normal circumstances, this should have been his chance to grow with and excel even further as part of the team he fought so hard to get to where we've gotten to. Biggest worry should have been about him keeping his place and/or taking his game even higher with new arrivals and competetion It's a bit shit. But onwards and upwards.

mjmooney Posted June 30 VT Supporter Share Posted June 30 Why is everybody saying they hope we get Juve in the Champions' League? That's the last thing I want - Dougie would be nailed on to score against us. I wish him well, but I never want to see him as our opposition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
