VillaChris Posted June 4, 2021 Author Share Posted June 4, 2021 5 hours ago, HanoiVillan said: The fact I had forgotten that John Lundstram exists until I saw his name on a released list might be an indication that ostentatiously turning down a contract during his 5 minutes at the peak was maybe not the smartest of moves. Can't see any of the promoted teams being interested, so he'll be lucky to be playing in the PL next season. Was talk of Rangers and one club in prem who'd take him would probably be Burnley so slim pickings considering a few were pushing for us to sign him during January window for some reason.

VillaChris Posted June 4, 2021 Author Share Posted June 4, 2021 Talking of Liverpool....remember that Welsh wonderkid we were linked with on season long loan in one of the Bruce seasons? Stunk the place out in a few league 1 loans although pretty sure he actually made the bench for Liverpool in one of the games at end of the season but he hasn't played for them in years..... If only I could remember his name! (which is a post from me that actually works in this thread for once) It's not Harry Wilson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 Heard Snoddy on the radio today talking about the Scotland game. Had to check who he actually played for now as knew West Ham have left him go. West Brom...when did that happen?! Watched a few of their games in the run in and he didn't feature in any of them.

KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I don't know why, but I was thinking about Ulises de la Cruz today. Turns out that he was a member of the Ecuadorian national assembly until 2017. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulises_de_la_Cruz Weirdly, Alpay was elected to the Turkish national assembly, in 2018. Can we make a former Villa XI who have all dabbled in politics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
