Looks like it's been in the pipeline for a while. Makes you wonder what the hold up was as Chelsea didn't need him, but were playing him anyway. - Specifically mentioned linking up with McGinn and Jack when talking about where he sees himself playing..then mentioned that he only knows the English lads. Suggests he was sold that line up when he was signed. - whilst he wasn't overly smiley, like our last couple of signings, I dont take it as necessarily a bad thing. He doesn't seem like that kind of person in general, so think it's just his nature. Here's hoping for a cracking season of him linking up with Jack and them both scoring/assisting a shedload. Most players are taught to say the right things and be a bit monotype , plus he genuinely looks like a shy quite lad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KMitch Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 For what it's worth, Everton supporters are not happy about this one. They hate him even more than we hate Fabian Delph, over how he left them for Chelsea. They've always been traditionally friendly with Villa supporters, but some are actively wishing us to go down now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are more finding it funny that he has 'downgraded' from Chelsea when he left Everton to play at the highest level, which is fair enough I think.

To be fair, they're going through one as well with Ancelotti. James looks like he may be the spark to push them into the Champions League, either this season or next. I've always had a soft spot for Blue Scouse and wish them well, just not when we play them! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with me. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we were friends, we even have the same sponsor on the jerseys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I agree, one of a small list of teams I have no animosity towards, same for Forest personally. I wish them well, regardless of how some feel about us signing RB. I've seen a few decent tweets from Everton fans wishing him and us well for the season - I'm sure it's just a minority of 12 year olds acting up. And yes, hope we stuff them home and away!

I didn't suddenly hate Man City when Delph went there, so I doubt they universally hate us for this. I enjoy our friendly rivalry with Everton. It's better than the bitter ones we usually have with other clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For whatever reason the ones I have met have all been sad pandas. I am sure there are decent ones out there though.

mjmooney Posted September 30, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 30, 2020 I mentioned some time ago about how my Baggies mate was giving it large about how they were going to be a force to be reckoned with this season, and that Villa would struggle again. That was before the opening games and any transfers. Right now he's backpedalling furiously, worried about their survival chances and incredulous at Villa's transfer business - Barkley above all. Oh what larks. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
