BleedClaretAndBlue Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Already falling in love. Specimen! Him and Mings can hopefully form a good understanding in the early weeks. I want to see two sets of ladders saluting the away fans at Bournemouth on August 6 after a good away win to kick off the season. Ben Chrisene looks like a man already too, be good to see him over preseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 What a handsome lad. I have a good feeling about this signing, hopefully a centre- half who commands his territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 The language barrier must be really difficult. I think we should get a few more Brazilians in to make him feel at home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's getting to the stage now that it's just easier for our new recruits to learn Portuguese or Spanish instead of English in order to fit in.

villa4europe Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I think that was more aimed at the suggestion that we should sign more Brazilians... He'll be ok, I'll assume he at least knows a bit of French having played for nantes and kounde being his partner for a bit in seville Said before with Luiz that from my experience playing abroad its not so much knowing basic English because they all kind of do its the changes in terminology, playing Germany they don't say "man on" they say "mann komm" (man comes - kw) which is still easy enough but for things like drop deeper and I'll even translate it to komm tiefer that doesn't work, after 3 years of playing I still don't know how to get the line to drop deeper, they don't call it deeper they call it something else there's different terminology, phrases and shouts let alone languages and accents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Aston Villa's Diego Carlos gets blown away on day one New Villa signing Diego Carlos admits he has been surprised by the quality of the facilities at Bodymoor Heath. The £26million centre-back arrived for his first day at the training ground yesterday after signing for Villa at the end of May. “The first day was very good. A surprise,” he said. “I was surprised by the training ground, everything was really nice. “I was also very well received by all the players and the people who work here. I’m really happy and thank you to everyone for being so welcoming. Well the facilities, the truth is from when I first walked through the door, I noticed the training ground. They were great, very good pitches, very good facilities. Everything inside was really nice. I’m really happy to be involved with this team.” Carlos added: “I’ve tried my best to communicate but it’s been difficult, but I’ll get there little by little. “I was speaking to him (Douglas Luiz) and he was really helping me out with my communication, telling me about the training and the club. He is a really good friend.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
