  1. This is true of course but we do (or should) know where want to go hence who can help us to get there.
  2. Don’t be too hard on yourself. A majority of football fans (me included) know little about football when compared to the likes of Unai. We all sound off from time to time but then await expert decisions.
  3. Depends upon any further signings we make. Under Unai no player will be guaranteed a start - they will have to earn their place.
  4. Don’t tell me he won’t be lining up top players for us while he winds-up his business at Barca.
  5. No, just a hope for our club taking positive steps forward. We will need more than one or two players to challenge for the title.
  6. Yes, but it would be even better if he had our first new signing with him.
  7. I am sure Emery knows what he needs to add (and improve) our squad but if he had any reservations all should be clear now. Wide midfielder and support striker yes, but we need additional squad members in midfield plus a right back of course.
  8. Yes it’s a click-bait fiesta. Having said that I can’t wait for the window to open.
  9. This is true but is this just for starters? Unai has been quoted as saying that he needs two players for each position so in a couple of years will our squad look more like Man City’s now? I’ve been supporting Villa for 70 years and I’ve never been more optimistic.
  10. The stats I’ve seen show him as ACM, CM, DM. If true it seems he can play anywhere in midfield - just what we need.
  11. Yes but what do you think of them playing together?
  12. I think you are probably correct but what is going on now is cause for us to re-evaluate our (realistic) expectations.
  13. Replacement for Christian Purslow?
  14. Makes you wonder about stats taken in isolation. Perhaps they need to be factored according to the league the player is in.
  15. Yes we are facing a fascinating summer and we need to appreciate that we will aiming to bring in top quality players wherever we can. Thinking a player “will never come to Villa” will not be automatically applicable.
  16. Are you going for understatement of the year? Seriously though, do we think he will come to us?
  17. Don’t hold your breath. Anyone who thinks McGuire is good enough for England hasn’t got a clue.
  18. This is so true but some people have not forgotten the short-sighted and inward looking way the club was run. Ellis “Mr Aston Villa” my arse!
  19. He could give coaching on how to do an overhead kick - after all he told us he invented it
  20. I am hoping our situation has not been ruined permanently. For me the problem is the further behind you fall the longer and harder it is to come back. This is why I am fully behind the way our owners are taking the club forward because they are not “short term fix” merchants.
