Funny to see Connor there, he should enjoy those facilities before he's training in some victorian gymnasium belonging to SOME Championship team. yeeee....i was like......"omg a wild Conor appears, whats he doing there!!"

Yeah I wondered where it was going... But O'kelly was funny when he said: "Sometimes I talk really fast so tell me to slow down". Great video though, I love to see that sort of stuff. Hopefully we can see more of that during preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounded more like a question to me considering what he followed up with. A fast, black country accent is hard enough for native speakers, let alone someone speaking a second language. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was delighted to see him knocking around again, even if it's just for a short while longer. I find all that behind-the-scenes stuff really interesting. I enjoyed that video. Buendia seems like a good sort, too. Thrilled to have him around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amusing, but I suspect Emi thought he was just a bit eccentric. Seemed to be fairly well settled for a "first day in a new office". Hope he can get that fitness up to Watkins standards though, his offensive and defensive stats with the stamina to keep going all game would be phenomenal.

I was just thinking what a relief it is to have done this business so early. Transfer season is usually really tense for Villa trying to drag deals over the line. Love the new dynamism the club is showing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did notice this, but assume its down to the fact Conor has been back a week already. His pressing stats suggest he isn't short of stamina when it counts.
