  1. I was really excited when we signed him and I don't think we should underestimate the impact of that horrific injury he got.

    Surely he's destined to return to Spain or move to Serie A in the summer.

    It's a shame, but the drop-off from Pau, Konsa and (pre-injury) Mings to then Carlos and Lenglet is too much for where we aspire to be and how we aspire to play.

     The Scum 6  virtually win it every year  , at least the Conference has a variety of winners. I honestly can't tell you the winners of the last 5 finals apart from the Leceister one. It has been an endless combination of Chelsea, Arsenal,City and  Liverpool for he last 10 years.  Once we lose I pay no attention to it all now.

    Since Wimbledon's shock win in 1988 - so 35 years - only Everton, Portsmouth, Wigan and Leicester outside of the Sky 6 have won it.

    And even Leicester had not long won the league.

    Dendonker somewhere in Naples having an evil laugh right now like:

    " Oh Villa... If only you had a big Belgian lad who could play CB in your ranks 🤔 "

    We'd be better off with Jean-Claude van Damme in defence than him.

    That's inflation over decades and economic conditions... Not really what's happening here after 5 months of football played. 🥴

    It kind of is.

    Just because inflation and perceived value in football is more volatile than the housing market, the principle is still the same. Supply/demand. A player is worth what a club is willing to pay.

    I could list my house for £10m today but that wouldn't make it worth £10m. If someone knocks on the door and offers me £10m then it IS worth £10m.

    PS - if that does happen, I'm outta here. Been nice knowing y'all!
