Romano is really dragging this out isn’t it.  Did I see Chelsea have suddenly realised Duran is a bit mental too? 

It’s what he does. It’s his currency. I’ve blocked the man. 

Villareport is the only real ITK, and even they make stuff up from time to time.

He's quite a lot stronger and faster and better in the air. And IMO an all around better player.

He hasnt played in a back 4 in a long time so defensively not that great. Attacking he is superior

Does it from time to time with the Netherlands but they have options in that position and also play a back 3 sometimes.

37 league and 10 champions league appearances for Barca at 16, 17 goals and assists, started for Spain tonight. At 16 I’m not sure you can do much more to warrant hype. 

In fairness, I thought he was underwhelming yesterday. Although I wouldn't presume to say that he's not good on that basis, as it's the only time I've ever seem him play.

All Romano does these days is engagement farming. It’s pretty embarrassing for someone who once only tweeted when the deal actually happened.

I don't believe he has. Do you have a quote you can link? 

Nope, I have shared it on VT previously but can't seem to find it now.

When they played in the qualifiers vs Ireland was a back 3. Went back 4 vs France and Dumfries played ahead of the full back

Yeah he has about 5-6 games as a RB in a back 4 for Holland in the last 2 seasons.

Musiala moved to Germany they didn't sell him.

They sold him for just over £100,000

Surely that's the whole point of joining another team's forum, to just talk shit?

Not really. Villa are selling Luiz. Really sticking in the gut of some on here who continually criticised my opinion of him.

I swear you just spout the opposite of sense. 

I watched Inside Out 2 yesterday in the cinema with my kids. You’d make an amazing Irrational character. 
 

 

Because I’ve been proven right?

Same.

I'm sorry let me get this right, you think Luiz is not very good and that because we are selling him that means you've been proven correct for that viewpoint?

You seem to be ignoring a whole lot of context here, like I don't know, the financial motivation for the sale, the gigantic PSR elephant in the room? Or possibly, that selling him for over £50m to a European giant might actually suggest he's pretty good rather than the opposite?

It's almost like this sale doesn't prove your view correct at all.

In what sense have you been proven right? He rarely missed a game under Emery. 

[Jas10]

Don’t feed the troll, he’s already feasting now… relishing the loss of one of our top players.

Villa fan? Yeah right

[sne]

Dumfries starting in what looks like a back 4 for the Dutch today.

[picicata]

Getting the equivalent of £60m for a 'shit' player like Doug. Just imagine what we would have got if he was any good!

if we are swapping like for like, or similar for similar, im not sure Milan have any headless chickens to swapsies.

maybe they have a headless something else we can have.

Was going to say I'd love Tomori but that's unrealistic given he's a key player for them.

A few links to Newcastle though but they don't look reliable sites from which the stories have originated. 

[JAMAICAN-VILLAN]

@striker never used to be like this a few years ago so I don't know what happened.

Always claimed to be both an Everton and Villa fan.

I'm starting to think it's just Andy Gray ( Or his son ) when he's on the beers and bored.. just having a laugh
