  1. My Spurs supporting mate at work thinks and hopes that Villa get 4th place this season. He reckons Spurs aren't ready for the Champions League. Personally, despite us having the points on the board, I think Spurs will get 4th. I just think that it will be tough for us to beat any of the last four teams we play because I can't help but feel our players will have Olympiacos and a possible trophy on their minds. I know they had Lille on their minds too but the next step after Olympiacos is a European final and a lot of our players don't have that on their CV. I think Spurs will get at least a further 9 points. I think we need at least 70 points and that will be difficult. I hope I am wrong!
  2. Does anyone know if the cost of one of these is a bolt-on to a normal price or, is the quoted price on the site for this seat only?
  3. I see Unai staying here until around 60 and then leaving to take the Spain national team job.
  4. I've run out of superlatives for this man. I just hope and pray that Unai loves us as much as we love him and he stays forever.
  5. What a signing! Seemlessly fitted into the starting eleven and gets better with every game. I love how tall and athletic he is. I love his technique. I love his ability to get stuck in and, I love how he can go past someone by going to his left or right. What will his ceiling be?
  6. He did all bar score today. Bournemouth fans are praising him on Twitter as they reckon their CB Zabarnyi has been great all season but couldn't get near Ollie today. He has to go to the Euros but that Villa-hating fraud of an England manager just won't give him a chance even when he goes. The aren't many wingers that transfer their game to being a forward as good as Ollie has become.
  7. Fair play to Matty. He had a tough game, but to score the goal to take us to extra time and then score his pen, after 120 of his comeback game, was very impressive.
  8. If the owners took a look at our overall situation and decided it was ultimately move stadium in order to seriously compete or they will move on themselves - would you prefer to move or stay where we are?
  9. Who are we going to sell before we buy? Can't be Emi, Ollie, John, Pau. I think it'll be Dougie and or Jacob.
  10. The three crosses came from their left back so you should look at Bailey and ask what he did to help prevent them?
  11. I like what Ollie said. If he's banging in the goals he deserves the right to question why we can't close the game out.
  12. Deano's best signing and we are so lucky to have him.
  13. I think they bought Rogers with an eye on selling Ramsey in the summer.
  14. I don't think there's any doubt that the players believe they can win a European trophy this season. I think that, ultimately, will cost us 4th place in the league. Hopefully, 5th will be enough to get Champions League next season.
  15. I love the guy, I really do. But, today, the goals were mainly his fault. As a player, he won't watch that back and be happy.
  16. There's a different Leon when he's smiling. He's clearly a player who thrives on confidence. Unai is the perfect manager for Leon, to give him that confidence. We signed Leon along with Emi Buendia and Danny Ings. They were supposed to fill the void left by Grealish leaving. In his last season Grealish scored 6 in 26 Premier League appearances. Leon has 5 in 13 PL appearances so far this season. I think it's fair to say that when Leon plays like he is now he's looking every bit the perfect replacement.
  17. Imagine playing against McGinn when he's like he was tonight? He must be an absolute nightmare to play against. Absolutely brilliant captain for our club.
  18. I think Unai realised he needed Diego to go toe to toe with Haaland and he's probably the only defender that competenwith him physically right now, with Ty out. Diego was fantastic tonight. Ezri at right back made sense because we know he doesn't get dribbled past.
  19. I'm ashamed to say I gave up on Leon. My God, what a player he looks right now. I just wish he rolled his socks down from day one. He was unplayable tonight.
  20. This plus the keys to the safe and artistic license for everything that contains AVFC.
  21. Spot on! The high line is the reason for our success. We are playing in the attacking half of the pitch. I love Unai. If he asked for my hand in marriage I'd say yes. The man is an absolute genius. He's a freak! I was surprised at the team but the man absolutely knows what he's doing. Carlos against Haaland - beef vs beef. Put is faith in Bailey. Pushed Tielemans further forward. It was perfection. That's the most complete Villa performance I've seen in many years.
  22. Nothing wrong with getting stuck in. It's a contact sport.
  23. Believe it or not, a Villa fan I know at work said to me after the last game "I am glad we won but when is Martinez going to keep a clean sheet?". I commented that I thought there was nothing he could have done about the Fulham goal and the guy replied "yeah but, what about other games? You can't be given the best keeper in the world award and then not keep clean sheets". I just gave up trying to reason with him that we are extremely lucky to have Emi. He is a big personality and gives us a lot of exposure. I think that our players gaining recognition means we are heading in the right direction.
  24. Believe it or not guys, we have a linesman who currently works matchdays in the Premier League, who used to live on Dovedale Road Perry Common as a kid. His name is Mark Perry. I think he lines the Palace v Everton game yesterday. He was a sound lad as a kid.
