  1. Like Bailey, McGinn and Diaby they all take time to adapt to both PL football and the tactics of Unai Emery. Hopefully Zaniolo can continue the fine form and bag the winner at Old Trafford. I didn't see the match and again just only highlights of the goal. It was a wonderful header: "leapt like a salmon" but seriously he does possess a strong character, and also aggression on the football pitch. In hindsight maybe should have started the game?
  2. Amazing watching that last video, clearly the size of the leg muscles are greatly reduced in comparison to the other fully functioning leg. It's actually incredible. If you don't use it, you lose it.
  3. After a few hours of mulling the news over I can see the idea of pausing redevelopment of The North Stand. It seems logical to continue riding the current wave of positivity and especially the home form which is so important to our success. The feeling of fortress Villa Park is one we will need next season more than ever before if we do qualify once again for Europe or dare I say Champions league. To take away a complete stand for next season would greatly reduce the atmosphere and I'm all for keeping it the way it is, just for now.
  4. Yeah I agree, one first team player to push for a place and potentially one other to strengthen the match day squad. This will be achievable also if Villa can offload one or two players surplus to requirements in January which I think should be looked at.
  5. Can't unsee the mini phallus, is someone taking the proverbial?
  6. Echo the Trippier is s*** vibe, never really saw him as that great...this season he looks slow and weak. Hope the Barcodes end up with nothing again. Long may it continue.
  7. It's happened now and Villa must move on... Kamara will learn from this but yeah agreed on Brentford's #33; what a little hard man eh?
  8. Villa won't be tinkering at all as it's not necessary. One player to push for a starting place and another for strength within the matchday squad. Thing is if Villa are top at Christmas and stay top four we'll be quite a favourable option for any prospective signings.
  9. Really surprised to see Brentford play and act like that today, I somehow thought they were better? So lucky to give at half-time 1-0 up considering the domination from Villa. Thought Brentford were very negative, ceding possession to Villa and tried to niggle and hit us on the break. As for Frank bemoaning the ethos of the game which is a bit rich when you see Ben Mee trying to break Bailey's leg. No wonder the Villa players were slightly agitated, some of whom were at Villa when he practically ended Wesley's career. As for the abuse directed at Watkins isn't it hilarious that he nets the winner. F*** them, nothing club went down in my estimations after today.
  10. Always thought Thomas Frank was a bit of a word removed but more so now after his comments. Why does he not think how this all started with his very own idiot player getting sent off because of yet another potentially career ending challenge. So subjective these football managers for the most part and yet for balance you hear Emery's comments and alluding to the behaviour of his own players and how to deal with adversity. Result: Emery is class and the other a word removed. Brentford played with no intent to play football, they ruined it a spectacle, trying to contain with their negativity and persistent fouling.
  11. Yeah Zaniolo played well when he got on against Brentford... Gave Villa an outlet, strong with the ball and direct. Good to see, the goal in Europe will have helped his confidence.
  12. First-half Villa were pretty average yet controlled much of the game. They offer nothing to the game yet score a fluke goal. Second-half Villa much improved and deserved to win, statistics also confirm this. Brentford are poor losers though and they are a poor team; finally Ben Mee gets his comeuppance for being a s*** footballer. Moreno MOTM for me and great to see him back.
  13. Villa look really half-ass** today... Terrible goal to concede, sloppy and poor to react... Just an awful first-half.
  14. Bizarre take... So no white players have had the same treatment? Pretty sure we've heard similar things said recently about Zaniolo and even McGinn during Smith and Gerrard's time. It's absurd, absolutely absurd.
  15. I don't know, you'd like to think many managers would want to be remembered for their achievements in the game. I too think he's a good manager but madness to go to to Chelsea.
  16. So it was Chambers who got done for their goal?
  17. Again, I thought Jhon Durán did well and signs of maturity. Good experience for him. Held the ball up well at times, some nice passes, good runs, alert and got a few shots off. Eight changes to the team didn't really help much either, it was a disjointed display from all.
  18. Potter isn't that stupid is he? Well he did go to Chelsea so he probably is. I hope Man Poo keep Ten Haag a little longer, well until Villa play them.
  19. It's a potential trophy, which is something Villa have lacked for so long. A couple of reinforcements in January and Villa will be strong for both PL and Europe.
  20. Good touch and finish for the goal, tried to get involved in the game and make things happen.
  21. Be much better if we bundle in a haircut as part of the deal?
  22. Yeah, not even four minutes in then switched it off....annoying...
  23. Lots of smoke around Luiz now, I guess it's a product of our success and will continue to be a problem if we are not fancied as a 'top four' club. Someone will be spinning this, whether it is the players agent or the media. Douglas Luiz has been one of my favourite players since his great displays during 'project restart'; I'd be really sad to see him in another PL team and especially Arse. I'm hoping IF he does leave us he will go to Real Madrid, he'd be great in La Liga.
