Footballers really are in a privileged position where they can bring so much joy to young fans just by meeting them and speaking to them. Any footballer who shirks this really are wasting a precious gift Not always easy for some people to handle emotionally. I remember Liam Gallagher once visiting a children's hospice and he completely broke down. Gabby done some wonderful stuff for the Acorns Hospice, as have many other Villa players, but I would totally understand if someone found it too emotionally overwhelming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom13 Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 (edited) Even in his first season you could see Dougie had serious quality. This assist ffs (second vid/tweet below, clarified as Dougie assists in the first as well). Edited October 25, 2023 by Tom13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Man City could have bought him back for £25m - luckily they didn't need or want him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turvontour Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) You know when he puts his foot on the ball when in possession, and rolls it forward. Like he doesn't need to, is it like a style thing? He's the only player I've seen do that consistently.

AvfcRigo82 Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 (edited) Don't know if it's a coincidence, but i've noticed since he and Miss Lehmann went their separate ways that his game has gone up a gear.

I’m surprised we haven’t seen another one of those since. Nearly did on Sunday if not for a great save. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many would have spotted that let alone executed it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty much accepted by the media and everyone else that we bought for £15m, and buy-back was £25m for the first year and £35m for the second year.

MWARLEY2 Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 A 30 min interview with Dougie towards the end of last season. Really really interesting. Subtitles and so so much more than a happy to be here interview. Proper insight into Emery, and also his obvious huge respect for Villa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 That additional pause he takes after the ref blows the whistle for a penalty - wonder if that’s psychology and Luiz going when he’s ready, not when the ref is? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
