Very much doubt he'll be better than McGinn - think we shouldn't expect too much too soon.

That's T'amore

Think he's scored more with his right than left! The one footedness matters less with Cash and other bombing on the outside of him. Starting to look really good isn't he

Good game today - although under zero pressure from Newcastle. He's less impressive on the ball when pressed but certainly did a job tonight.

Much love for Conor. A bit lightweight for the Premier League - especially top half where we aspire to be - but he's been a good servant and will have a legacy of promotion, great goals and fantastic stats.

Amavi would be great. Deano would live him.

Well on his way to club legend status. My favourite Villa manager in 25 years supporting the club.

Talented player on his day. Lacks the aggression you'd ideally like but in games where we are easily superior he's a real threat.

Absolute hero

I **** hate Clive Tyldesley

Watkins should be getting on the end of that tbh

Saw a lot of promise myself. Agree he doesn't look totally fit and obviously lacks the drive Barkley gives us but that was a decent performance to build on.

If we're still anywhere near the top 6 by Jan - and I'd hope we will be given fixtures - we should strike whilst the iron is hot and there is still reduced competition from other clubs due to Covid financial pressures. There's a potential opportunity here to make a big stride forward this season but I can't see our squad holding out without quality reinforcement.

A real bloody nose tonight. Outfought, outrun, outplayed. Big week needed at Bodymoor before Southampton.

Big game. I would LOVE another win here I really would.
