  1. The longer this goes on the more chance we have of being gazumped. I wouldn’t be surprised if Man City replace Mahrez with him. Monchi needs to earn his corn here as this is his first signing attempt as Torres was pretty much done.
  2. No matter how much blood money the Saudis throw at it they will never compete with European football.Who will watch it on TV ? The usual tourist hanger on’s from Africa and Asia definitely but what do they contribute to their club’s? Nothing apart from clogging up all the forums. Remember Samatha ? God help us we never have to put up with that again
  3. UEFA we’re quick enough to come down on Villa and Brighton regarding shared ownership. Maybe the powers that be should be more proactive and only allow U20 development players be loaned or transferred between multi ownership clubs. Saudis are obviously trying to destabilise European football with sports washed blood money which has no relevance to the earnings of these clubs. Don’t expect FIFA to do anything though. What with Infatano now living in the Middle East since the Qatar World Cup !
  4. If Diaby chooses money over football aspirations, he’s not the type of player we want. Could be time to move on. He will be giving up any hope he has of playing for his country and playing meaningful competitive football for blood money. Not the type of character I want playing for my club. Or just maybe he wants to be in the same league as the greatest player ever to pull on football boots !!!!!
  5. I travel from Ireland regularly for games, have done so under owners like Ellis, Lerner and Xia. So I don’t care how much I have to pay to watch the quality on offer now! If people are prepared to pay to watch a higher standard then so be it. It’s called supply and demand and there’s obviously the demand.
  6. So many wet wipes on here. The top is fine certainly the best and most vibrant of the other kit stealers.
  7. 100% this . It’s so simple, I don’t understand how they got it so wrong. Turn the lion around and just our name and the lion.
  8. PSG written all over this. Mendes using us again to bump up his wages to go and play in Europes sixth ranked league. He’s just happy to play in CL
  9. That’s far from true now is it ? Tielemans, Ings etc we’re announced without the media even knowing about it.
  10. Their not allowed to advertise with club badges but usually spot on
  11. If people are moaning about the home shirt just wait until they see the feeble effort for the away shirt! Being sold on DHGate it’s a throwback to the 90’s white with a little blue and black on the shoulder. Awful
  12. For me the facade of the Holte End with the steps is unique to Villa and should of been replicated for the North Stand. Villa Live was too close to the new stand and took away the appeal for me. The stand alone lion with our name would also be unique and instantly be recognised even without our name (the right way around though!).
  13. Or maybe after employing a marketing expert who has a track record of achieving a massive success of branding of a sports franchise, they actually take his advice. Certain people are just perpetually negative towards the club they supposedly support.
  14. Obviously the club have been told Witton Station is not being upgraded after today’s announcement from BCC. Therefore they have probably decided to go ahead with the North Stand and upgrade Stumps in the meantime putting Villa Live on the back burner. This will give them time to judge whether Villa Live is viable in the long run. Maybe the club is looking at subsidising buses to and from the ground as an alternative. All in all a sensible approach. I like Heck’s decision making approach
  15. Happy to just wait and let a brand expert with a track record of growing a brand beyond expectations do his job.Over to you Mr Heck
  16. It was a pretty clear offside but no lines shown of course. On my perfectly legal US stream it clearly shows him offside
  17. I personally look forward to his analysis of the games and love his enthusiasm for the Villa. Why people are getting so irritated by him I can’t understand. Anyone who obviously loves our great club from as far away as Canada and spends so much time promoting us on the internet is fine by me and deserves respect.
  18. Exactly the same mistake was made by Luiz at Brighton and Kamara against Leicester. Why the hate for Dendonker ?
  19. Oh well, we could of wasted £70m on Sancho or £80m on Mudryck. This is what you get from most wingers. We’re not the only club who have this problem. Needs to be used as a impact sub
  20. Just been named in the top three goalkeepers in the world and could probably win the award. However you obviously know far more than the experts.
  21. Shocking defending leaving 2 or 3 players free on edge of box for corners. Arsenal kept exploiting it . If McPhee is responsible it’s time to go. Luiz and Kamara not even looking whilst 3 Villa players pointing at them. Pathetic
  22. Looks like he was past the ball and couldn’t head it out for a corner just make contact with it.
  23. 10 minutes here and there is not giving plenty of chances.
  24. Remind me how Targett is getting on at Newcastle? Playing second fiddle to a 6’7” centre half
