It was almost word for word "describe how it will feel to play against Manchester United, City, Chelsea and Liverpool?" He said playing in this league will make it easier for his mum to watch his games, which was quite sweet. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted July 3, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 3, 2019 Have there been any quotes from Dean on the signing of Wes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I've got no qualms at all with players wanting to come to Villa to prove themselves in front of the "big teams". It worked well with Benteke and, until we're fully established and in the upper echelons of the league, having that sort of hunger in players is only going to be a good thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A'Villan Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 I thought he was quite clear about his focus being on settling in, and producing for Aston Villa. I think he showed emotional intelligence throughout. When asked about leaving Brugge and the feelings involved, he basically says it's about Aston Villa now. He's a big lad, slightly bigger than Abraham. They seem to be very similar scorers, plenty of headers and first touch shots and volleys from inside the box. I'd be surprised if he's as good as Tammy with the ball at his feet, because from the little I've seen, he's not. Welcome and all the best WM!

He's bigger physically than abraham but not as tall I don't think? Wesley is 6'3 and I thought abraham was 6'4 Or 5. Irrelevant though tbh I'm looking forward to seeing how physical Wesley is, it will be harder to bully prem defenders than Belgian defenders generally speaking, but seeing the way he bullied Belgian defenders is a sight.

Same height to the centimeter. Wesley has 3kg on Abraham. Would make sense both that you though TA to be taller (because he's slender) and that there's not much weight between them. TA looked quite muscular and athletic, and muscle weighs more than fat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got your back... He has crazy low body fat, we are told, and he looks like he has high muscle density. Combine the two and you get one very strong hombre, no matter what the scales say.
