I see a link claiming we're interested in Marcus alonso on the news feed tonight. would bring lots of experience
15 Aug 2023 01:35:40
I heard we have an announcement coming tomorrow, I can only guess as to what it is, I'm thinking with all the noise it's about zaniolo.
1.) 15 Aug 2023 07:21:33
According to Fabrizio Romano we have reached a verbal agreement and if everything goes as planned Zaniolo will have a medical on Wednesday.

Italian press are saying the same ?
12 Jul 2023 01:04:53
I have pictures of pau Torres at Bodymoor, thankfully it's a deal that's going through?
1.) 12 Jul 2023 14:51:44
I think you can upload pictures to the 'Sightings' page if you'd care to share please
29 Jun 2023 20:32:20
More Torres links gathering momentum, this time it's Ferran Torres, probably would be an upgrade but I'd still rather have goncalves. if it's true it's serious ambition coming out of the club.
06 Jun 2023 22:10:52
My mate just txt me saying tielemans just signed a 4 year deal with us.
1.) 06 Jun 2023 22:46:14
If true good signing
2.) 06 Jun 2023 23:08:37
I hope he’s right can’t see anything on the internet yet though.
3.) 06 Jun 2023 23:46:00
Me neither mate I think it was on twitter I just seen screenshots from a mate
4.) 06 Jun 2023 23:58:42
Very good signing, especially on a free - You'd imagine Sanson will leave and Tielemans is his replacement, I expect Guendouzi to do the same for Marvelous and that's midfield done! 2nd GK, RB, Forward x 2 and I think we will be in a very good place come August.
5.) 07 Jun 2023 07:24:10
Wednesday morning and still nothing on the regular outlets, personally that says to me that he hasn’t signed as yet.
6.) 07 Jun 2023 07:46:55
Agree, it's seems like something is brewing but I don't think it's done just yet - Would be nice to see some early movement, get most of our business done before pre-season if possible. I'm sure the club are trying, Asensio for example, but we may need to be patient given the calibre of player we are rumoured to be targeting (Asensio, Torres, Tielemans etc)
7.) 07 Jun 2023 10:59:08
Not true. AS Roma looking at him now. This transfer window might be very difficult for us to get some players over the line. Very early days though. It is clear we’re trying to get some free transfers in before June 14th when the bidding war begins.
8.) 07 Jun 2023 14:09:57
Outside of location, I don't see what Roma would (currently) offer that Villa can't - I can understand players picking the big guns like PSG, and don't get me wrong Roma are a big club, but I'm not hugely worried about Roma beating us to players. Jose looks set for PSG (if rumours are to be belived) so I'd be interested to know who is picking the players there. We'll improve the squad massively, I'm not worried, window isn't even open yet!

Incredible performance from every player out there, emi didn't have much to do but 2 brilliant saves when called upon and brilliant distribution tonight, Diego manhandled Haaland his best performance for us so far, Torres cool and composed throughout, konsa excellent at RB and got forward much more than I expected, digne solid defensively and a constant outlet for Torres, kamara passing and control in tight spaces top class tonight, doug so unlucky not to have gotten a goal can't remember him putting a foot wrong all night, teilemans I think his best performance for us, some of his flicks and intricate passing with the other midfielders was real samba stuff, maginn and his big backside bullied any player that came near him, Bailey played out of his skin, the skills he showed tonight were that of a 100 million player, thoroughly deserved his goal and man of the match, Watkins didn't get much ball tonight but he ran his socks off all night he covered serious ground and closed everything down he didn't give them a minute, the subs came on and done a stellar job in killing the game off with intelligent passing and ball retention. there wasn't 1 player for city that played better than any villa player, considering who we were playing I think it was 1 of if not the best performance I've ever seen from us, last but not least a big shout out to Emery he got his tactics and team absolutely perfect tonight.
onwards and upwards we are villa we are MASSIVE ??
1.) 06 Dec 2023 23:10:29
Yeah spot on mate, as close as you get to a perfect team performance that.Great night and well played to the team, manager and the fans!
2.) 06 Dec 2023 23:23:25
The fans were unreal, some atmosphere I wish I was there tonight
06 Dec 2023 21:06:28
1 of the best performances I've seen from us in that first half, brilliant to a man, so unlucky with the goal. more of the same please utv? and kudos to the home crowd it sounds epic of the tv.
1.) 06 Dec 2023 22:18:00
Absolutely superb tonight. Tony Bailey take a bow!
2.) 06 Dec 2023 22:40:05
Bailey is useless he shouldn’t be anywhere near the starting 11 ???
3.) 06 Dec 2023 22:54:10
Cmon - leave Scotty alone ?
04 Dec 2023 21:21:11
So who thinks Haaland should be suspended for his disgraceful and aggressive behaviour on Sunday, ? Surely not the example top players should be setting.
1.) 04 Dec 2023 22:13:36
It's not a good example to set, but that call was just the worst. I don't think he'd have gone that far if the ref had blown up straight away, but to play the advantage and then pull it back when it looks like it will actually go somewhere is outlandish.
As a former ref, I agree there needs to be protection for officials, especially at grassroots level, and pros should advertise good behaviour to those watching.
I do, however, think that the associations are not doing enough at the top level to reinforce the need to maintain high standards in the role. The referees themselves have to set a good example and they are regularly failing to do so this season.
2.) 05 Dec 2023 16:49:44
I agree it wasn’t a good call, city didn’t fail to win because of that decision though they just didn’t defend well enough, 2 billions worth of a team and they can’t beat a bunch of spurs second team in their own back yard, grealish still would of had to go and score. biggest financial cheats in the league still unpunished I don’t think they can have huge complaints they have gotten so many dodgey decisions their way over the last few years, (including a few against us) but when the shoe is on the other foot they think they can behave like that, Lo Celso didn’t seem to do anything after the final whistle and Haaland shoulder barged him and then started slinging abuse like a spoilt child.
3.) 05 Dec 2023 17:54:33
I saw the video and to me it looked like Lo Celso made the move to block Haaland rather than Haaland going for him.
The result, the rest of the game and other issues have no relevance to this issue. Why should players not be allowed to get mad when a decision like this happens?
At best it is hugely incompetent but it could easily be something more sinister. There really is no reasonable explanation to signal advantage and then change your mind before it plays out.
Hopefully the FFP investigation is resolved properly one way or the other based on the actual facts but we can't have referees trying to even the odds on the pitch.
4.) 05 Dec 2023 18:25:43
The one positive for us from the City- Spurs game is if you look at Spurs first goal, we have the same ability to break at pace and potentially hurt City. They have conceded 10 goals in the last 4 games so if you get at the back four you can score against them. I hope we play to our strengths and don’t just sit back, if we do we have a chance if not we will get done I’m afraid.
03 Dec 2023 14:29:07
Bailey again, he may have his critics but he's quality on that left foot, all wingers suffer with inconsistency but he's having more good games than bad ones this season imo.
1.) 03 Dec 2023 15:01:50
Hes on fire whack
2.) 03 Dec 2023 16:12:36
I watched him in the Bundesliga when he was at Leverkusen, and I liked him from the off, like all wingers he was inconsistent but even on his off days he was a nuisance to the opposition on his good days unplayable. Given his injury hit first season I think some were too quick to judgement. Would he be an automatic starter probably not since Diaby’s arrival but he’s a great option from the bench.
3.) 03 Dec 2023 17:37:42
He’s a definite asset to the team lotm, outside the absolute top players in the world all other wingers will have good and bad days. if he scores 10 goals this season it will be a great return and to be honest he looks like he’ll have 15
30 Nov 2023 20:53:10
Much to negative first half, we'll get beat if we're not careful, we look threatening when we push on with our passing but to many time we turn back and end up back in our own half, these guys are crap we should be camped in their half instead of our own box, every time Olsen has the ball it's a flip of a coin as to whether he plays a stupid pass. dreadful goal to give away its no wonder kamara covered his face.
29 Aug 2023 21:50:49
I think there could be discussions going on with Barcelona for a player and the media are guessing as to who it is, unless chambers leaves I can’t see us getting another CB.
18 Aug 2023 23:00:57
???
18 Aug 2023 19:10:58
It’s really dragging out to be fair. the longer it takes the less likely it is to happen
16 Aug 2023 19:47:49
I hear ya Lotm, I hope they know what they are doing.
I think I’d still rather Thiago Almeda.
13 Aug 2023 18:07:57
Shrewd move if it’s true, very good option to have.
How would ye feel about 10 million for chuba Akpom?
10 Dec 2023 14:11:25
He’s unreal always the victim, what’s his problem with the disallowed goal? It hit havertz arm and hand at 2 points of that whole mess, rules are for everyone it makes no difference if it’s a stupid rule everyone has to abide by them, the penalty incident with Doug was lame, Jesus was nowhere near scoring a goal him and saka spend the whole game rolling around on the ground, if your that good mate you shouldn’t need to cheat, they had chances and didn’t take them they have only themselves to blame as we would of had if they got an equaliser after we missed good chances
10 Dec 2023 02:01:44
He’d done enough by half time mate ? looked like he got a knock when tackling for the ball I hope it’s nothing serious.
Different type of performance today we looked tired in that second half and let’s be fair we had every right to be a bit leggy after the run of games we had, they left it all out there, the subs helped, Ramsey looked better than he did at Bournemouth, no Doug or digne for the next game so I hope they are the first names of the team sheet for Thursday, what do you think about Diaby? He seems a little off lately he didn’t look as much of a threat as Bailey he looks low on confidence
10 Dec 2023 01:53:55
Bunch of sore losers, did you see odegards interview? And Arteta didn’t even wait till the final whistle before walking out of his box ? Saka got some amount of stick the whole way through the game??
10 Dec 2023 01:50:00
Watched their extended highlights v united tonight, their manager has them playing well, when I seen the result earlier I thought the exact same, who would’ve thought we would get 10 points against spurs, Bournemouth, city and arsenal, we would of being happy with 5 and let’s face it we would of thought Bournemouth was our best chance of a win.

We’ll worry about what stefan Moore thinks when he’s some way relevant
