    Squad is good enough to finish top 8. Left to be seen if the Manager is.

    Massive Premier League fanbase across the Asia Pacific region - especially Manchester United and Liverpool fans. Hard pressed to find Villa fans, thus I was quite impressed with the turnout in Gold Coast.

    Neal Maupay and his family received death threats. Turned out it was from a teenager in Singapore! How do you police that? How do you stop that message from reaching the victim? Who is responsible for educating the idiot? Surely not the British government or Premier League?!

    Chambers-Carlos has been our best pairing in preseason.
  5. nepal_villan
    Came to say the exact same thing.

    We play so slow. Under two different managers. When will this change?
  7. nepal_villan
    Last season we got zero points against Watford and only gained 4 out of 36 possible points versus the ESL clubs. If we just slightly improve here, we’ll easily be challenging for a top half or higher.

    Who the hell is going to pay him 100K a week? Certainly not Dortmund or Barcelona. Even PSG and ManCity are not that crazy.

    Havent seen anything that makes him stand out in the first two preseason matches. I do feel a run of games is important for all players. I recall the likes of Angel and Petrov looking extremely ordinary during their first few months with the club. The problem with Sanson is that when the run of games was available to him, he was injured. 1.5 years in, it might be too late to give him a proper chance.

    At least in preseason all our "new" signings have performed well - Coutinho, Kamara, Carlos and Olsen. Digne look to be the real deal, so if we can just get last years' cohort of Bailey, Ings and Buendia firing, we'll have had a really great transfer market record from our last three windows.

    Just cant see us getting 20M for someone who is 6 months away from signing a pre-contract and will not immediately start for any big club.
  12. nepal_villan
    He seems so fragile. Every time he goes down you fear an injury based on his reaction. Was it the same at Leverkusen?
  13. nepal_villan
    I am less optimistic now than a few weeks back. Feel other clubs have caught up to us in terms of signings. Think we'll be right around 10th. Maybe 1 or 2 spots higher or lower.
  14. nepal_villan
    Shame he will be leaving, and potentially on a free. This has been festering for over a year, so it's not like Villa left this until the last minute. We tried to extend the agreement over 2 years before the termination date. Can't do anything if a player and his representatives are hell bent on running down their contract.
  15. nepal_villan
    That's pretty much on the coaching staff, no? I just feel the midfield needs a bit of a refresh to make it "click". Wouldn't mind seeing one of McGinn or Luiz leave and someone else of a similar or slightly higher quality come in.
  16. nepal_villan
    Think this was done many weeks backs.
  17. nepal_villan
    Did you watch the match?
  18. nepal_villan
    Not sure how realistic it is but would love to get Paqueta from Lyon. Maybe with Sanson going on loan to them as a sweetener. Edit: rumored with Arsenal and Newcastle, so we certainly could compete for his signing.
  19. nepal_villan
    If he is better than Target, I am happy. That should be the litmus test for any signing - he is better than the guy he is replacing.
  20. nepal_villan
    Anyone else feel his positioning was totally off against Walsall? Had a few good forays forward but was a mess in defense.
  21. nepal_villan
    Not sure why anyone would listen to the football analysis of the likes of Preece or Evans. They are simply writers and not analysts and certainly not ITK. There are so many Villa vloggers and podcasters that understand the game and analyze them far better than those two.
  22. nepal_villan
    Thought Kesler was great going forward but all over the place tracking back. Probably needs another year on loan, thus would be good to keep Guilbert as the backup RB.
  23. nepal_villan
    He was very active, maybe that impressed some. But did not really show any cutting edge that would put him ahead of our established players.
  24. nepal_villan
    was very active but did not offer anything special for me. You can easily see that players like Buendia are miles ahead of him.
  25. nepal_villan
    Been a big critic of his, but if he shows the energy he did today - on top of his crazy skills, then he definitely has something to offer our squad.
