sidcow Posted August 1, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) I can see this announcement falling into 2 categories. A) people who like Love Island thinking it's a "sick" way to announce it and Bl people like me who think Love Island is an utter abomination thinking it's just a plain stupid way to announce a player signing. Either way welcome Moriera, may you be more of a one for us to love than an abomination. Edited August 1, 2018 by sidcow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_gary_cahill Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I feel sorry for Jed Steer, he’s been here a long time, Bruce obviously doesn’t think he’s good enough, look forward to seeing Moreira in the shirt. I’ve got a feeling he’s going to be good but let’s wait and see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moreira is very young himself and not particularly experienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 The announcement is a bit embarrassing to be honest. Exactly the sort of shit I would have expected under Xia and Wyness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The talk when we initially signed him was that this was a signing made by our owners who are working with super agent Jorge Mendes to get players in. I personally think he'll be played if he's good enough, but because Bruce didn't make the call there is a segment of the Villa fan base that think Moreira won't get game time because he wasn't hand picked by Bruce. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our social media manager hasn't changed as far as I'm aware so it is the same one that Xia and Wyness hired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bannedfromHandV Posted August 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 1, 2018 Everyone moaning about the announcement, at least we're trying to do something a little away from the norm. Whilst it may not sit well with the 'Gammons' amongst us I'm sure it will resonate more with youngsters. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
