Class act even when not at his best.

Sheffield Utd. We will tear them in a one leg tie the way we’re playing especially if Sharp is out

Find the responses here incredibly interesting. If this was 12 months ago everyone would be lapping this up. Just goes to show the general satisfaction of the leadership (and spending power) of Sawiris and Edens I think.

It’s unreal isn’t it? We play the first half of the season with Chester half fit and being the clear first (only) choice centre back. Now, when he returns to fitness, he comes in to a squad blessed with centre back options. Mings is brilliant, Tuanzebe was outstanding before his injury, and Hause has been pretty rock solid since coming in at cb with Mings. I think when all are fully fit id go Mings and Chester (if as good as last season again). Hause to move to RB.

Absolute boss. It’s all just too easy for him. Mid Chester gets fit that will be quite a centre back pairing

Brilliant performance.

I would be surprised if this is Villa linked given the purchasing vehicle is Edens company, and it is not linked with Sawiris. Interesting that Edens seems to be expanding his portfolio in this area though.

Ah Dr Tony has become like those people who refused to hand back their shares to Randy Lerner when he came in, poor guy - maybe they’ll do him a commemorative share ticket that he can frame and pass on like a family heirloom.

Did not see this coming. A reverse Delph,.

Chester has not had a good season, but I’m very surprised to see him being written off this way. Lets face it he has a very inexperienced partner at centre half, Neil Taylor and an aging Alan Hutton, who seems more and more like an attacking mid than a right back now. Not to mention Nyland behind him. Even Baresi would have looked a bit worse with that around him.

Terrifying/exciting to know under Smith Villa are actually 4.5 per game on average. Remortgage and back 0-0.

New Years Honours list. Nailed on.

Trying so hard not to get carried away by current style of play and improvement. But it’s nice to be excited by the football again. This style of play will help us keep the loaned players and attract other talent should we be promoted.

Been trying to reserve judgment on Tammy, but clearly he is a talent and is only going to get better. Would love to see him be our striker for many years to come.

This. Amongst the ridiculous moments, he has made some genuinely brilliant saves. If he can iron the mistakes out, we have an excellent goalkeeper in there. Big if though.
