  1. In a year or two Louie Barry is going to thrive off those impeccable through balls - the timing of his runs are so so good.
  2. Was enjoying it til they cut to adverts Also got distracted by a graphic which said that John mcginn was the 5th most fouled player in the league last year. That can't be right surely?
  3. Right, enough with the buendia vids. I've now seen more of norwich's 2020/21 season than villa's! (Just kiddng, keep em coming, those things are like crack to me)
  4. Yeah fair enough. I must admit I find it hard to get particularly excited when villa get corner kicks or free kicks as we so rarely seen to score from them (dunno the stats on this but doubt they would prove me wrong)
  5. Other than set pieces I don't think he offers much more that our current set of midfielders can do. Can we not just train them how to hit a dead ball better?!
  6. Jeez can you imagine letting Bertie take penalties. He'd probably try to head it in or bounce it off the corner flag the mad sod
  7. https://twitter.com/AV_transfers1/status/1401604094717054981?s=19
  8. At least if he does choose arsenal over us we can take solace in the fact we helped to overinflate the price they pay by creating competition, thus adding to the "arsenal way" of overpaying for players. I can live with that
  9. Do arsenal have any argentinians in their squad which could sway buendia? Even if they do they won't be as perfect a human being as Martinez so I'm not worried.
  10. Nah I reckon deano and Lange have told Emi that buendia is our boy and to go play pool, hang out and teach him the villa way. Done deal
  11. I mean.....it's quite the coincidence isn't it. May actually be something in this
  12. Crazy that Tony bought the entire club for £60m a few years ago and now we are in a position to turn down £100m for an academy player. Sod the Jamie vardy movie, there should be one made about us!
  13. It's brilliant that Ollie works so hard and that we as fans recognise how hard he works.... But how on earth is this a stand out quality for a professional athlete earning annual salaries over the course of a week. Why is 100% maximum effort not the standard for every professional footballer rather than the exception. For the money they earn and the lifestyle they have, with fans and coaching staff and club infrastructure all set up to help them achieve, footballers should not have to be defined by how hard they work. Total Effort and hard work should be the standard!!
  14. I once played in an under 15s game where one of the opposition drove to the game (!?) then proceeded to ragdoll our full team for the entire match. Carney reminds me of that fella/ ringer
  15. How Louie Barry finds time for this and for fronting the Arctic monkeys I will never know
  16. Starting to think that cup game where we played our kids against Liverpool was actually a disappointing result in the end
  17. Love how he has worked on his weaknesses. He used to get caught under the ball so much allowing opposition chances at the far post but that is all but gone from his game. Must be a delight to coach a player so receptive to coaching. Much credit to him and the staff
  18. Fairly unsurprised by this article. From day 1 he came across as an arrogant, superior spoiled clearing in the woods. Even before he came to villa I never liked his demeanour on or off the pitch.
  19. Think I'm right in saying that another clean sheet would break our record. Would love that. This defence and GK deserve it
  20. I used to have a semi regularly at 17. Not so much now that I'm 40
