  1. If one thing is for sure, Nyland would not have caught it.
  2. Different gravy. World level keepers have gone for crazy money in recent seasons - I think we got one on the cheap.
  3. Back in Beijing there is a man who is raging that his bad leadership led to him practically giving away this club for less than £30mil. And now it’s flying and worth over £300mil.
  4. 40/1 now for relegation. Which means if you put £10 on Villa to be relegated, you will lose £10.
  5. Be interesting to see what the budget is. Suspect a striker, a centre mid to challenge McGinn and a RW might be of interest.
  6. I think this is an important point. There will be many negative weekends this season, but the trend over the next 3 years is going to be very exciting.
  7. Disappointing performance tonight. Bringing our average expected goals scorer per game down. I imagine Smith will bring the lads in tomorrow morning at 8am for double training.
  8. Currently on course for 114 points, anything less than 108 points has to be viewed as a failure this season.
  9. Smith is another year wiser at this level, and our squads much improved and a year wiser too. I really want this to work with Smith and have high hopes it will!
  10. Great to see Sawiris in the stand yesterday - probably coincided with his business in London. I think the vision and ambitions of men like Sawiris and Edens probably are greater than knocking down the North Stand, I have never bought into the financial merits of doing that. I think they would be more likely facilitate a complete stadium rebuild to future proof us. No one can say that these guys have not been anything but brilliant for us.
  11. Delighted for the team. Hopefully fans will be allowed in the stadium when we lift the trophy.
  12. Anything less than top 4 by tonight and I expect Smith will come under pressure. Any side that can afford to keep Neil Taylor on the bench should be there or there abouts.
  13. Just goes to show the gap between us and other lesser teams. Chelsea spent close to £200mil and still can’t see away teams like West Brom. it’s ours to lose now.
  14. All the goals. 0-3 Watkins with the lot. Things are good with Villa at the moment, long may it continue.
  15. Elmo is a great servant to this club, very composed at centre back. Brilliant performance from some of the squad tonight which is very pleasing. Proud of the lads.
  16. Imagine going from loaning Drinkwater to then loaning Barkley. It would be like leaving a relationship with Rose West and then entering a new one with a supermodel.
  17. Would be a stunning signing for a few reasons. The outlay we would have made on players again, the quality of the player and the fact that Liverpool want him. Could be a means of pushing Werder to sell Rashica?
  18. Rewatched the whole game today. I thought it was a classy performance when you break it down. A complete second string (minus Grealish, Mings & Watkins for 60mins) completely dominates possession and pressed very high. When watching live there was always the feeling that the constant press was wearing Burton down and that we would get the winner, even in the 88th min at 1-1.
  19. Terrible. The guy had more excuses than a stag weekend In Amsterdam.
  20. BBC so I’d say fairly reliable. I can’t help but feel we have been played by potential “Tottenham interest”.
  21. #BananamanITK A couple of Exeter fans around my way are weirdly excited that they will receive their largest transfer fee - despite it only being a sell on percentage.
