Unfortunately another one not going anywhere until the contract runs out. At least he will be playing for the money unlike some others at the club who have taken millions in wages for nothing or next to nothing. He might well shine at the World Cup and attract a bid that suits the club and himself. If not, we will at least have one player left next season who we can rely upon.

Lichfield Dean Posted June 16, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 16, 2018 Played well first half - wasn't sure he'd cope with a technical pacy team like France but he has been very solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway he has now got another World Cup goal, we could still sell him yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 (edited) Must be worth £10m this guy. Scores now in two world cups. Edited June 16, 2018 by ferguson1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Golden Boot winner, all penalties. Sell him to Parma or Betis for £30m. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashingqwerty Posted June 16, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted June 16, 2018 thought jedi put in a solid performance today and think a defeat was harsh on australia. france should count their blessings. over the moon for jedi. only aus captain in 2 wcs and only aus scorer in 2 wcs. fair play to him. great achievement!

briny_ear Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Bit inappropriate for people to be calling him out for lack of pace, “appalling” distribution, etc., at the time he was contributing to a really strong performance against France. Little bit parochial perhaps? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Might aswell keep for next season. Still good fitness levels and we won't get much with one year left on his deal. When you think of factors of why we didn't go up he's well down the list. Get rid of Whelan instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyblade Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 He doesn't get enough credit for his penalty taking. He's got to be one of the best in the game. 16 for 16 in his career so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two calm as you like penalties in the qualifying play-off (as well as a free kick!), and a penalty against France Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnbull Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 So who was the last Villa player to score in the WC finals before Jedi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
