They've got to the last 16 of the competition the last 2 years running. With their budget that's an achievement. Beaten some decent sides along the way too for example Feyenoord and Porto. What more could you really expect? Should they be winning it?
-
Yep Rangers topped a group ahead of Benfica in the Europa League last year while going unbeaten in the league. Pretty impressive
-
I wouldn't be dead against Gerrard personally when looking at the list of names in the running in the bookies. Granted the Scottish league is levels below but he's done a fantastic job both domestically and in Europe. He certainly wasn't the first name I had in mind but when looking at who's available/who we realistically have a chance of getting he's miles ahead of Lampard, Terry and some of the others I've seen mentioned.

Gutted over this. I really believe he'd have turned it around. Thanks for the memories. My favourite ever Villa manager
-
We're really lacking characters in the team and that's the most worrying thing for me. So many players that go missing when the chips are down

Another genius set piece from Nanny McPhee

We're in trouble. Big trouble

Your Most Underrated and Overrated Villa Player of All Time
dubliner replied to Big Salad's topic in Villa Talk
Underrated: Gavin McCann Overrated: Lee Hendrie -
Surely any decent football coach can coach set pieces without needing a "specialist" to come in and assist. It hasn't improved our set pieces whatsoever and if anything we've got worse. It also irritates me the way commentators feel the need to mention him every time we get a set piece early in a game.

Should never ever play 3 centre backs again. Just does not work with our personnel. In saying that no matter what formation we played last night we'd have lost given the complete lack of fight a good few of our players showed. Brought memories of the Remi Garde era flooding back

This has been absolutely gutless. As bad a performance as I've seen from us for a long time. Arsenal should be at least 3 up
-
Totally agree with this. If he were a 30 year old I'd be worried but given his age I'm hoping to see a massive improvement in his attacking contributions. Not having the best of afternoons today so far
-
Saw a video circulating online where he was the victim of sectarian chanting while taking a corner on Saturday. Really hope this gets reported on but I've not seen anything yet
-
Playing for your country is the ultimate honour. Taking the Villa tinted spectacles off he should absolutely go in my opinion. He's Argentinian, not from B6. Doesn't make him any less committed to our cause and to suggest otherwise is madness.
-
Yes but he's a club legend with a retired number. There's levels to this game
-
Should always be remembered fondly at Villa Park. I hope for his sake he gets the move he deserves this window. I'd be snapping him up if I were a Championship manager
-
Best of luck to him. Personally I don't think he's good enough for us (I had this opinion even before the injury) but similar to Hourihane he can't be faulted for effort during his time here. My prediction is he's played his last game for us and will move back permanently at the end of the season
-
My favourite ever Villa manager. Even the missus who despises football roots for us now because he's so likeable. Super manager. Super bloke.
-
Fantastic servant who has always given 100% for the cause. The Premier League is a step too far for him but he should always be fondly remembered at Villa Park when he goes. He wished his mate well. Jesus
-
Yep very good move. A big club too so it'll get him used to dealing with the pressures that come with that.
-
Welcome to the best club in the world Danny. Delighted with this signing. A quality player who will run his socks off for the cause

The RJW63 Official Jack Grealish Appreciation Thread
dubliner replied to kevangrealish's topic in Other Football
As some have said.. we follow Aston Villa not Jack Grealish. Looks like he's certainly gone now. Will he go down as a legend similar to McGrath, Cowans etc? Absolutely no chance -
The RJW63 Official Jack Grealish Appreciation Thread

Nah it's quite clearly a throwback to these beauties. A subliminal message that he's staying. That's all the confirmation I need

Someone send me a link to that bookies that takes bets on past events. I can see myself making a right few quid -
Agree with a few here that 15 million should be the minimum we accept. Personally speaking I'd keep him as he's proven to be a great replacement when needed. I'd change my mind though if we signed Bailey and/or Alvarez.
