  1. Fair statement... The last quality keeper I remember us having was Freidel... and that was the best part of 10 years ago... Gollini looks like he could have been decent, but we didnt have the time or the patience for him under the old regime...
  2. I noticed that when we was coming off for AEG... He looked pretty buff!
  3. I couldnt agree more... Heaton has got some work to do to get that spot back... Edit: And by spot, I meant the Number 1 keeper spot... Not the spot of being the best Villa keeper for many a year...
  4. Is it just me or has he come in leaps and bounds since the restart of last season?!
  5. I celebrated with a “GO ON!”... and then sat down expecting it to be chalked off for some arbitrary reason... Pleasantly surprised that one stood...
  6. and they just lost to Antwerp... Bunch of c****!!!
  7. Was watching “Hannibal” the other day (The film, not the series). There is a scene where football is on telly... and our Julian Joachim makes a star appearance!
  8. I think this lad has come on leaps and bounds since the restart of last season into this one
  9. Alright then, have it absolute that your finishing position at the end of the season (aside from relegation places) determines how many signings you can make in the following transfer window...
  10. I've always thought a "Signing Cap" could be implemented in the Premier League. If you win the league, you are allowed to make one additional signing in the next summer transfer window... In order to make more signings that window? You need to get current players off the books permanently through sale, release or retirement. Second place gets to make two signings Third place three and so on... Teams below the top 10 and newly promoted sides are unrestricted...
  11. Makes you think... If by "Popular vote" of the powers that be... Would there be any chance of FFP being scrapped or the rules being revised? Now there are more billionaire owners of football teams wanting to be given the green light to open the chequebook? and Man City and Chelsea being investigated for dodgy dealings and swindlings over the past few years...
  12. and if he does want to stay and push Martinez? We, as a club, can only benefit from it!
  13. Sorry pal... Didn't mean to be insensitive...

    Recruitment

    and with that comes a club that players want to sign for... and stay at!
  15. "NFL giants Minnesota Vikings" Hyperbole much?
  16. No, he was offered a ridiculously lucrative long-term contract by some charlatains to play for one of the most famous clubs in English football and, like any sane human, took it... He has stolen nothing...
  17. I haven't seen a group of our defenders show such faith in their goalkeeper for quite some time... An inspired signing...
  18. Doesnt bother me one way or another... Its just nice to see Villa players get called up for the first time to their respective national sides (in this case England) due to their performances in a Villa shirt... With players not abiding by lockdown procedures and breaking curfews etc? and with Mr. Prim and Proper Headmaster Southgate in charge? Anything is possible I guess!
  19. As much as I wan't to see Matty Targett do well for us to the point that he is considered for an England call-up... I think we know thats a *bit* of a push
  20. I distinctly remember someone making a comment on this forum about Southgate probably being bitter and twisted from his playing days of him being the model professional and a bloody good player in his own right, but the flash lads getting all the limelight and adoration and him thinking "When I manage England, there will be none of this" Someone did say something like that didnt they? or was I dreaming it?
  21. He could only play with the cards he was dealt... And I swear to God that Southgate told the rest of the players to keep it away from him if they could find another option...
  22. If we can get Cash, Konsa and Watkins in the squad for their first senior caps... And Barkley back into contention... With Jack and Mings... Lets keep pushing!! #UTV
  23. I often have conflicting thoughts about Timmy Tactics... He got a team of players he could do nothing with, who were biblically low on confidence and (on-the-whole) werent that good... to pull their socks up, survive in the league and get us to an FA cup final... The wheels fell off against Southampton, then Burnley... then the cart just blew up against Arsenal... Sliding doors moment? Had Sherwood had access to the finances, and the staff, that HE wanted?... I actually think he would have done ok...
  24. Both he and Jack Rodwell could have had much more productive and impressive careers had they not moved to Chelsea and Man City, respectively...
