Hugely encouraging that he took the 70% pay cut. He could easily have taken much more money at another club - Newcastle, America or the Middle East - but wanted to remain here. I really hope having his future settled brings out a masterclass performance today.
-
Coulda, woulda, shoulda. A bit like Luc Nilis, albeit a less talented version.
-
So big I forgot it twice!
-
They are both feet in now. The Las Vegas project means there is no way back, not for the foreseeable. I think this summer will be unprecedented in terms of player investment
-
To sell for less than £55m is nonsensical to me. He’s not perfect and not lethal enough in front of goal, but his energy is excellent and his best years are a couple of years away yet.
-
Excellent. Transfer will unlock other doors for us. Very clever business.

Unleash Coutinho and Buendia together. Eventually it will work.
-
This might well be part of the behind the scenes plan for him. A very good thought.

Serious concerns about this man’s ability to grow us as a club.
-
Doesn’t matter. He’ll be playing left wing/forward next year like 50% of all our previous 10 signings.
-
Worryingly headed straight down the tunnel at full time. Did not even go to the fans. He’s understandably upset at the state of things. he was impressive yesterday
-
Very tidy performance. Best Villa player today.

I think Coutinho will end up staying. Call me naive but I genuinely don’t think it’ll be a financial situation. He’s a world class player but fragile mentally, we have got him back to a level he’s not seen for 4/5 years.

if he gets us into the top 6 next year, he can wear a tee-shirt with the face of Christophe Dugarry on it for his post game interviews for all I care.

I do love the stories in todays broadsheets that Newcastle will not be spending obscene money. - £60ml was the quoted budget. Peanuts compared to our first spend in the PL under NWSE. Geordie tears are sweet, I do expect we will go big this summer. The hardest thing about that is the emotional attachment we have to some of those players who have done great by us, but not good enough for the next level. Targett probably the first example - expect Luiz and Mings/Konsa to fall in this category over the next 18 months
-
100% and I think an early deal helps attract other top talent for later in the window

Think it’s a mentality thing still. Neither player made it/has made it yet. Chuk may well be the next great thing, but he isn’t there yet.
-
Rushian Hepburn-Murphy now plays in Cyprus. Let that be a warning to Carney.
-
Important to remember we finished 11th last season too. Top half is progress in what was a shaky first half of the season.
-
Only three players remain in our match day squad that represented us at Wembley against Derby, Ty, McGinn and Hause. We’ve come a long way together.
-
We finished 11th last season so anything above that must be considered progress, even though we are likely to achieve less points.
-
Wow. If we only get half a season of him I don’t care. What a privilege it is to see this player in a Villa shirt. Probably the most naturally gifted player we have ever had. That kind of performance is the type to get away fans applauding him.

Great performance, but I still want a fairground. 8/10 -
Good news. Certainly nice to not have betting or some completely unknown (laundering) brand on our shirts,
