Barnes last scored in February last year!

Are we sure Burnley only have eleven on the pitch????

How did Everton beat Man U, Chelsea and Leicester recently I’ll never know? They’re are terrible.

Burnley a bag of nerves.

There is never a game where I’d be happy Villa losing just so it helps someone else. If we beat Burnley tonight and they go down at the weekend, then so be it. I’d rather Leeds or Everton go but hey ho.

Chuk to score tonight and announce his new contract tomorrow

I don’t think he would be an upgrade on Konsa or Chambers from what I’ve seen but Gerrard has worked with him, so he’ll know better than most if he’s worth it.

Don’t be surprised if we take Connor Goldson on a free this summer. With Konsa injured until September, no one will take him and that only leaves us with Chambers as right CB. We may put a lot of our money into sorting the midfield, so wouldn’t rule this one out as an option. Connor is a local lad and is desperate to return closer to the Midlands. I see his dad occasionally and several Midlands clubs have shown interest in him previously.

Honestly can’t see him upgrading on Mings this summer and I think he’ll perhaps try and get Buendia/Coutinho in the side together more next season.

Nathan Collins would be a better option to consider if they went down. Isn’t Tarkowski on a free this summer? Got Newcastle written all over it probably.

Be great if we could this lad a couple of minutes towards the end tonight or at the weekend.

Thanks for the feedback. I’m not sure if I even like the look of any of them? Dare I say it, they look a little on the cheap side. They seem very popular though, so I’m obviously in the minority.

He’s had a bloody good career to date and scored some absolute belters. Totally living the dream, which most of us would have wanted when younger. Just a shame he never pulled on a Villa shirt. He would have been more than good enough for us when we were in the championship. Good luck to him if he leaves Forest this summer.

Confidence is definitely key with him. He was a far better player when no fans were in the ground during Covid. Digne is such an upgrade.

Not sure if this is the right place to post or if I can call it a “good” TV drama but did anyone watch Floodlights (BBC2) last night? Pretty gut-wrenching to be honest and at times an uncomfortable watch. Just shouldn’t have been allowed to happen.

Our last home game of the season against a horrible team fighting for their lives. Under the lights we usually do well, especially against teams below us and this should be no different. An early goal for us should make the game open because they’ll want to keep it tight and not concede as a point is probably a good result for them. A couple of changes would be good to keep some fresh for Sunday. Whether it’s 4-3-2-1 or 4-1-3-2, I’d like to see Coutinho and Buendia back together. Ramsey also needs a start. Ings, McGinn and Luiz probably deserve a rest, with Carney also coming in. Another hour out of Nakamba in preparation for the battle on Sunday, then bring Iroegbunam on. Martinez Cash Chambers Mings Digne Nakamba Carney Ramsey Buendia Coutinho Watkins Subs: Olsen, Feeney, Young, Iroegbunam, Sanson, McGinn, Luiz, Traore, Ings. Going to say a 2-1 win.

Just horrible to see and cowardly from the idiot. No doubt will blame drink and claim it was totally out of character. Just lock him up I say.

The idiot has already been arrested according to reports this morning.

Generally interested to know, if we can get two midfielders in this summer, who would people like to see us sign and why? I still like the look of Bissouma and Phillips. Those two in a double holding pivot with three players in front and one striker would be magic in my opinion. I do struggle with some of the popular names across Europe, purely because I’ve hardly seen them play.

Spot on and it’s a true reflection of life around us. We’re a complain and “I want compensation” society. Eating a meal out for example, enjoy it and go away happy but probably don’t say anything or tip. Don’t enjoy it, people complain and want something free or money off. Back to topic, I also like a lot of what I see and hear around Villa at the moment.

agree, really don’t understand the obsession about him and needing to play games? Smith and Gerrard haven’t given him games for whatever reason but perhaps they don’t see enough application in training?

Totally agree, I may have had one or two Naan Kebabs in my time after a night in Brum, but nobody should forget this fella……………

I would still like it to be Leeds or Everton but it’s most likely going to be Burnley. If Burnley go, they could do a Sunderland and drop again to League One.
