  1. Very bitty game with neither team having the quality to make the difference. Clearly Villa need reinforcements this month to freshen things up particularly on the creative side. Luiz again proving to me that he isn’t the top class midfielder that most on here think he is. If Villa get an offer this month for him I’d bite the hand off and get a more influential replacement!
  2. Villa playing the better football without really creating too much against a typical Dyce side. Been impressed with Lenglet who has now become accustomed to the Premiership. A so, so, half without much quality in the final third from both sides.
  3. Villa haven’t started yet continually giving the ball away in Everton’s half.
  4. Players being moved on makes it increasingly likely new players coming in! Looks like Chambers may be on his way too?
  5. Difficult game for both sides.
  6. Best 1st half of football I’ve seen in many, many years Newcastle v Man City. Quality!!
  7. Or buy better than what’s in the first team? It doesn’t necessarily need like for like replacement especially where Villa are at the moment!
  8. They replaced him with Ward-Prowse and used part of the money to sign Kudas. You could argue West Ham have improved since letting Rice go.
  9. Think it would be a massive mistake not to strengthen when pushing for a CL placement and considering the amount of games Villa will have to play in the second half of the season! Clearly Emery wants to invest in the squad naming players he wants rid off. Most would agree with those named plus I’d add Dendoncker to those surplus to requirements. Luckily all three are certainly saleable for nominal fees or indeed loanee’s therefore I’d expect to see at least two go and two to come in before the window shuts. A quality RB to allow Konsa to play in his best position and a DM to interchange with Kamara should be a priority!
  10. Well, there you have it. Emery has spoken.
  11. Have stated this when the window opened. Not getting game time at City and wants to make the Euro squad in the summer. So Villa would be getting a very good hungry player in a position which currently has a massive drop in quality when Kamara is missing. I’d also suggest, when up to speed, he would indeed challenge Kamara as first choice DM and would get plenty of game time with Villa.
  12. Absolutely amazed at some of the posts on here stating no to the possibility of signing Zaha. Can create something from nothing on his own which Villa’s current wide men lack on a consistent basis. Probably nothing in the link if you can call it that but a fit Zaha would definitely improve the team, put the shits up any opposition and could push Villa into a CL placement which would pay for his transfer!
  13. Have watched Koopmeiners a few times and been unimpressed. Doesn’t strike me as an Emery signing either thank God!
  14. After 8 consecutive defeats in the F.A. Cup it’s nice to see Villa through to the fourth round. Can’t really vote on MOTM as no one really stood out in a horrible game. However, did note Ramsey is a yard short of pace since his injury but hopefully that will come back when match fit? Further noted over several games that if Villa’s wide men aren’t firing then there is very little creativity through the middle to help break down a block. Neither McGinn, Luiz, Donck, or Kamara are playmakers so Villa will always find it hard to break sitting teams down. May be something the manager will look at now or in the summer. For me midfield is just too similar! Definitely need Tielemans in there for a better balance! Villa should have had a pen though.
  15. Awful first half. A real struggle to stay awake!
  16. Can’t really expect Boro to do anything else than sit in and wait on a break which they’ve just done.
  17. Villa needed to go strong as Boro won’t be a pushover.
  18. If the right offer comes in then most clubs will sell especially if in the Championship!
  19. That sounds very positive in bringing quality in. It would be absolutely criminal not to when Villa are doing so well. I'd expect RB, DM and possibly loaning a more experienced striker with Duran out on loan to the Championship.
  20. In that case Villa should send McGinn back to St Mirren.
  21. Yes mate I know but could probably cover both positions?
  22. I like Tierney at Arsenal. Slot in perfectly at RB or LB but currently on loan.
  23. Yup if you want to keep thinking small!
  24. Not ludicrous at all if you consider City may well pay part of his wages plus he is certainly good enough to push Luiz and Kamara out of the team or certainly give those players a rest.
