Football, as Jimmy Greaves said "funny old Game. Who would have thought we were the only English team in the Euros quarter finals to fail, we played the strongest team and had probably the best overall performance. We go on and it's still in our own hands to get something positive out of this season.

I genuinely believe we’ll win every game till the end of the season, wouldn’t that be something? Get CL, win FA Cup, but the lead story on Sky would be Ange got a flat tyre today, or something else no one cares about 🤷🏼♂️

Nice touch by PSG manager, saying that he's never seen them put under that much pressure before. That coming from him is a massive compliment, showing just how we have progressed as a team . Some massive games coming up, the way Palace have been playing, I couldn't understand that Newcastle result last night UTV

There appears to be a lot of noise around Rashfords future today. Emery has rightly said we need to see how the next few games go.
He had his best game in a Villa shirt last night, did he play with claret and blue blood in his veins or because he was on the biggest stage in world football and calling on Barcelona to come get me, it's common knowledge that he would love to go there. I personally don't think he was ever going to sign a permanent deal with us, his wages alone would significantly reduce our ability to sign the class players we need to maintain our place at the top table. We currently pay more than 95% of our income on players wages, this is clearly unsustainable, Rashford could make things even worse, there is very little likelihood that he will take a massive hit on his 350k a week. Any thoughts guys?

I think you are probably right Scotty we would have to be competing in Europe and he would have to be prepared to take a significant pay cut and even then we probably would need to offload some our bigger earners to make such a move feasible. Much more do able would be Asensio his salary is circa £150k and I think he likely to be more consistent over time but again I think European football is essential

LOTM, is it possible Rashford has used us for his own ends. He has certainly got the exposure he obviously wanted and we were obviously a wise choice for him, of course we have benefited as well.The downside is we have possibly allianated Ollie, I personally would take Ollie over Rashford, a proven goalscorer and a big reason why we managed top four last season.When a player earns two, three or more times a week than the rest of the squad, this can have negative consequences.

Rashford may have used us as you say but it’s been a win win so certainly no hard feelings from me if he decides his future lies elsewhere. In terms of Ollie I have always been of the view that he isn’t clinical enough to take us to the next level so if at 29 we could get north of £60 million for him personally I would let him go.

Add to the out list Buendia, Dobbin and Coutinho. In terms of incomings I think that will depend on whether we qualify for European football if we don’t then I can’t see either Rashford or Asensio signing and we may end up having to shop elsewhere.

The reports Iv seen about Barrechea are great, the fans love him, wouldn’t be surprised if Emery keeps him about for pre season .

My sons just phoned, we've got our tickets, I think we are on the roof, £80 for the three HaHa . Disgusting the way it's been done, was talking down the game last night, people who've paid for membership are getting tickets in front of season ticket holders . As they say money talks, nearly 60yrs a season ticket holder means nothing at all .At least we've got one, bet there are lots of others who haven't. UTV

To Aston Villa fans you played briliant against PSG and were unlucky not to get something out of the match. As a Liverpool fan i have always had a soft spot for villa and also played in same team with the brothers of Denis Mortmer Tony morley ken Macnaught and a few more . Good luck for rest of the season
