    It’s a joke! Leaving money on the table.

    There are at least 3 pieces I want to buy but can’t because I’m not an XL+ or a midget. Same issue last season as well. Pathetic. 

    Understand your frustration, but having massive excessive inventory is leaving money on the table just like not being able to keep things in stock. Pick your poison.

  2. He hasn’t even signed for us, let alone kick a ball. Don’t think it’s fair to write him off quite yet. Sure he could be a dud, but so could any signing.

    If you assembled a Championship all-star team, they’d finish maybe 15th in the Prem. If you assemble a championship all-star team and add in Jack/McGinn/Mings/Heaton, I don’t think 12th is out of the realm of possibility.

    I'm in the system, not been a ST holder for many years (well, not ever on this account), and I haven't had an email.

    Yep, same. I’m in the system, haven’t received an email. Obviously I wouldn’t feel right taking the survey even if I had gotten it, my location makes it virtually impossible to get to VP until a vaccine pops up.

    West Brom after Deeney. I know which two matches he'll be starting. 🤣

    Wouldn’t touch Deeney with a 10 foot pole. And that has nothing to do with him being a blue nose.

    Too much of a “me” attitude.

  5. Question for other international supporters. Got an email today saying my order has shipped with P2P-IPP and to allow 20-30 business days for arrival. 
     

    Is it really that long of a wait???

    No matter how anybody looks at it, it is totally baffling. 

    Particularly when you look at the stats.

     

     

    Said it on twitter, and it bears repeating. If you removed the pictures and names, while focusing only on statistics, Southgate would be deemed unfit for his position for picking Winks over Jack.

    The decision defies logic and seems to be counterproductive to Southgate’s main responsibility - fielding the strongest side England has to offer.

    Hope we get a grey/silver away kit next season. Love the last silver one we had

    Well if the leaks are real and you don’t mind camo, you might like the 3rd coming out

    Sure, i'll be on my own here but I think these are the best kits we've had since the acorns ones. I detest betting sponsors as it ruins the shirts, the cazoo is at least fairly 'clean'. If we get the White Camo as the 3rd kit then I think this could be the best ever collection of kits in a season.

    I wouldn’t go quite as far as you have, but I think this set is massively underrated. This away kit is the best one since the horse jockey away kit in 2013.

    The Luke home kit was wonderful, but the away was boring. *ducks*

    Bit of a sudden contradiction is it not?

    The club that had "No offers on the table" at one stage to revealing only days later they were frustrated with "Poker antics of RB Leipzig in negocations".

    What I will say is, Villa have once again shown real class in how we have gone about this whole situation.

    Not long now....

    Just as an FYI add in to that FFP still exists.

    Our owners have loads of money and may want to spend loads but there are limits.

    What I would say is to us I think 80 million is more valuable than Jack is this summer. When I say this I mean we can spend that on a few players who collectively will improve the team more than having just jack in the team and lesser players. There is also the lesser risk of having 3 players vs 1 for injuries.

    Where I think that changes is in a summer or two when we may be a club that is expected to finish in the top half and we look to those top 6 spots where the truly excellent players like Jack are the difference.

     

    I don’t necessarily disagree with your argument, but the major assumption is that we sign 3 quality players with the extra 80 million. There’s a chance that money could be spent on players that end up flopping here.

    Those hypothetical 3 players aren’t a guarantee. Jack is.

    Just want to ask you all this. If Villa sign Reina, Cash, Rashica, McKennie and Watkins, will that be deemed enough for this window? 

    Dunno who Cash is, but Rashica/McKennie/Watkins would all be quality signings imo.

    Said the same to a colleague, at least wait until he has retired.

    Kompany getting one aswell, I’d assume Aguero will then be in line for one. Think they have a training ground named after Joe Hart 🤦‍♂️
     

    Trying to force a history.

    Bingo.

    Reeks of trying to artificially elevate yourself to the level of the other club you share a city with. Make no mistake, City are the little brother of Manchester United.
