Div3 Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Such a shame to see a sixteen year old child with a tattoo. Illegal for it to be done in the uk unless you are over 18. Perhaps he had it done in Spain. I hope that he receives a lot of guidance and support from the club so that he becomes a role model for those less gifted and makes better choices than other young millionaire teenagers have in the past. In fact quite a few connected to our club. On the footballing front I hope he fulfils the talent he obviously has and wish him all the best.

Popular Post TheMelvillan Posted January 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 24, 2020 Dude has an awesome villa tattoo on his arm and has left Barcelona to sign for villa. His family are huge villa fans and he is regarded as one of the hottest prospects in the game. Yet there nothing but a bunch of snidey criticism about the guys appearance and whether he is ready or not for first team action. This place baffles me sometimes I swear. Welcome Louie. You are living the dream. No one knows when or if you will make it here but good luck fella 22 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mallett Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 There is a brief clip of Barry in action here for England U17. Little interaction with Aaron Ramsey before he sets up a goal. Hopefully something which will be replicated in the first team in years to come! In the rest of the video Barry's main role is to appear frustrated when his team mates ignore him and then muff their lines. Hopefully that won't be happening in the first team!

New_Hope Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I very much am looking forward to seeing his career develop and for him to make his 1st team debut (hopefully). Made a good start already by bagging a goal against Cardiff at U23 level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted January 25, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted January 25, 2020 (edited) As if we were so short on strikers we had to buy one for the u23s too! Welcome lad! Edited January 25, 2020 by Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The photo of his supposed Villan tattoo, and the appearance of whatever is on his arm during the signing do look totally different. Anyone got proof that's his actual tattoo?

OutByEaster? Posted January 25, 2020 Moderator Share Posted January 25, 2020 Got about an hour today for an underage team at Bodymoor - not quite sure on the detail, might have been an U16 team. They're keen to get some football into his legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's as big a talent as is being claimed I'd expect him to break into the first team very soon, not sure on the rules for 16 yr olds and loans but 6 months at a localish league 1 club may be an option let him get kicked a bit and score some goals.

screwdriver Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 as soon as we're mathmatically safe I'd chuck the kid in let him have a whack. it's about time the brummies started making a big impact. alan smith is probably the biggest football star from the city which is a disgrace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t imagine they’d have much money spare, and If they did, they wouldn’t pay a football club’s bills with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
