  1. I am well excited about this signing, def in top 3 signings for us this summer.
  2. Some of those saves are unbelievable. Didn’t realise he was THAT good, what a signing this could be.
  3. How much have we spent/going to spend? We are “doing a Villa”
  4. Very shrewd signing, 10x better then Steer thankfully! Was worried premier league strikers would ping them in for fun against Steer, Heaton is pure quality, if he can do a Friedel for us I’ll be very happy.
  5. I think you might be being optimistic.
  6. Sorry misread your post wrong, I don’t think they will allow us to flirt with the possibility of getting relegated, we could become one year behind schedule not really that illogical to think they would be dismayed during the season if that’s the predicament we potentially find ourselves in.
  7. If we finish 17th I obviously would be happy to survive but I think the owners and Purslow would be dismayed at that! Would they sack Dean Smith if we are sat bottom of table come Christmas, course they would.
  8. Can’t believe it was allowed to happen, never thought I’d see Aston Villa relegated, I started supporting Villa when Big Ron was in charge so kinda was used to always being a top team, the fall from Grace was something else.
  9. Haha Luiz is, confirmed by club earlier.
  10. Thing is for the most part those players have done okay, I think we just didn’t have a cohesive management/senior level team who shared a joint vision, manager didn’t want them, it was all just disjointed and it reflected in the results sadly.
  11. From what I’m lead to believe this guy has potential to be World class.
  12. Apparently Brighton are bookmakers favourites to sign Maupay.
  13. Glad I don’t see life through your lense.
  14. Maybe we have signed our own Kante, Mahrez and Vardy this summer...
  15. You are missing the point of the comparison. If a relegation fodder team can win the premier league, then why can’t villa finish in a decent position, for all intents and purposes Leicester won the league because of team work and high morale, something I see in abundance at Villa in the last 6 months. So to re-iterate... not saying we will do Leicester and win the league, just that with team work and morale on your side a high position is certainly attainable.
  16. Why back up options? Why can’t Wesley become the back up option?
  17. Just a quick note on Brighton, I think they actually have the right squad for their new manager, Houghton signed a lot of talented attacking players but played a very defensive style, hence why they struggled so much last season. I think the teams to struggle will be Norwich, Sheffield, Newcastle, Burnley, and for some reason my gut thinks West Ham and Leicester will struggle too.
  18. It has been quite amazing hasn’t it, tho it all feels like a blur since securing a play off final spot, I’m not sure I’ve been able to savour or take it in yet.
  19. It was a freak season but they still did it, and it was done with team morale mostly.
