That guy Enzo we got from juve is ripping it up on loan, reports are describing him as 1 of the best CM in Europe right now, bad news for us as reports state he's only a couple of appearances away from a permanent move for what's described as peanuts, looks like we might have lost out with him, the signs we there that he had quality but instead we paid 50 million for Onana, these are the things putting us under financial pressure, I hope the new guy has a good eye for talent and I hope these young players get game time or we are just wasting our time.

Tielemans out for another 5 weeks apparently, that's going to hurt us he is one of the most important players imo

Diogo costa rumour circulating also. don't know anything about lammens but Costa is among the best in Europe I'd rather him to be honest, god only knows what our team will look like come Wednesday, going to be a busy finish to the window

Whack, window closes today at 7pm not tomorrow.

Lol what’s that got to do with the price of turnips?

Here's a positive outlook for those disappointed with lack of signings.
If any premier league team signed Watkins Martinez and rogers it would be hailed as a brilliant window, same goes for us keeping them.
1.) 04 Aug 2025 06:52:17
Totally agree.
I would also add that Watkins having a break to recover looks almost like a new signing going into the new season.

Articles popping up about united trying to sign Martinez on loan, how on earth would they think that we would loan them our number one keeper? I know there does be some rubbish rumours floating around but this one takes the biscuit, is there truth in it? What you guys think?
I'm not sure who the biggest idiot would be, them for thinking we would do it or us if we accepted it.

Would not be surprised with United, who honestly believe, they are the best in the world UTV

Loan fee should be £40M, problem solved ?

Chatting with my 9 yr old son tonight about a tougher than usual week personally, and he said "well at least we got the win Thursday night, I said yeh we didn't play well but we got the 3 points, he asked would you rather play well or get the points, slight pause from me but my answer was "the points I suppose".
I've asked myself the same question a few times since, part of me is disappointed with the game Thursday, I mean we hope and cheer our team on all season to finish in European places for those big nights but then we watch games like that, not entertaining, not enjoyable (reminds me of spurs and uniteds journeys to the final last year if I'm honest) and I ask myself how is Emery happy with that.
We have to remember that Emery has a job to do with the squad and he has to think about more than just winning each match as it comes, he's managing mins into fringe players, managing players back to fitness, he's got to manage legs to make sure we are good to go at the weekend, the list goes on.
So we look at it as a whole from his perspective, we looked good when we really tried, our players didn't over exert themselves and should be quiet fresh for the weekend, we had no injuries, Buendia and YT are back from injury, Bogard seems reliable no matter where he plays, Malen scored a penalty and Maatsen got a nice goal, there was no trouble at the game that had potential to be a disaster, we won without pushing ourselves, in a good position in both leagues, so all in all it was a good night for Emery and the team, we have to accept that this was never going to be one of the big glamour European nights, it was a must win game and we did just that, it won't live long in the memory and I'm sure lots of people who were disappointed last night are a little bit happier today looking at the table and the frustration has worn off and looking more towards Bournemouth, it's also important to have somewhere to vent and at times that's what this page is, I hope it stays that way, has to be balanced, from what I read here most comments have structure and valid points whether they are positive or negative, there was only one guy who was talking total contradictive nonsense and he's gone quiet, everyone loves a good debate and it would be pretty boring if we all thought the same, we would all comment positive things the day of the game and then have nothing to talk about till next game day, I read a lot of different club pages on this site and most are every bit as fickle as we are despite what some people say, you also have totally deluded sets of fans on some clubs pages and reading it is stomach turning, you also have pages that haven't seen a new comment in a year and we don't want that either, so let's keep the balance and respect anyone's views when they make valid points even if we don't agree with them. not sure what this post is but hopefully a bit in there that everyone can relate to whether it's positive or negative.
Finishing off with a positive, I've always said the best teams find a way to win even when the are not playing well, UTV ?

Definitely in your camp Whack, if we all agreed it would be boring, some don't understand that's its because we care so much we say the things we do and that's how it should be, patience and tolerance are commendable traits and should always be remembered. Generally I think this is one of the better forums with a good balance of views long may it continue.

Didn't see the game so I didn't suffer the frustration, so for me I'm happy with 6 points from spurs city and Liverpool, we are well up the table from where we were at the start of October, I didn't expect to beat Liverpool so I'm not overly disappointed today, looking forward we have 6 very winnable now before Arsenal so let's get behind the team and go on another run, only seen the highlights but we seem to have had our chances which is a positive, Watkins is a big worry, I did get to see the build up and to be honest he looked petrified, we need a new striker, I don't think Duran was the answer but we need someone with his confidence if we are to keep pushing for European positions.
01 Nov 2025 19:37:58
Win tonight and we're third, what crisis ?♂️ I'd take a draw tonight but a win would be incredible
26 Oct 2025 16:15:28
Credit to Onana today he was immense, cash aswel for all the hate he's one of our best players this season. our passing today was very good, one of our best team performances in a while, city threw everything at us and we stood firm, who cares about Go Ahead Eagles now. proper chuffed with the team. UTV ???
1.) 26 Oct 2025 17:59:51
Looking forward to your Sports Argus match report Whack??

Cash you beauty get in there

Great result, great all round performance, who would of thought 2 wins from (minus europe) the fixtures of Tottenham, man city etc. UTV

Daz you are 100% I was only thinking the same thing yesterday, it was a huge day for us and for a villa boy he was very blasé about it, yes it was only the conference league but it was a stepping stone and also an emotional day for most villa fans who went through the heartache of relegation. not saying he’s a bad lad but most of these football players are motivated by money and not glory like the old days
15 Aug 2025 01:04:52
I hear what your saying Scot but it’s a 2 sided coin, if he hadn’t had those injuries and had 2 storming seasons instead and city or Liverpool etc came calling I wonder would he still want to stay at villa or would he do exactly what Delph or grealish done?
I wish him nothing but the best but no matter who he is or how long he’s being here he’s not more important than sustaining the upward trajectory we find ourselves in the past few years.
09 Aug 2025 01:02:23
Assensio doesn’t make sense to me but I wouldn’t be overly surprised if it happened, we don’t see what Emery sees. who would you rather have back between Assensio luiz or grealish?
08 Nov 2025 12:36:15
Lotm, 1 thing I will say is we seem to always play at a similar level to our opponents, we play better against stronger teams then when we play weaker teams our levels drop to their standard, Bournemouth will come at us which in turn will create space for us going forward, our record at home is excellent in terms of results, I predict a tight game but confident we can get the 3 points.
Cash is a million miles better at RB than Lindelof was on Thursday and he’s fresh having not played midweek. also there are a few teams ahead of us playing each other this weekend so we could find ourselves in a great position come Sunday night
06 Nov 2025 21:54:59
Not sure why your laughing Daz this has being a shocking performance, we had 3 or 4 good moves in the whole game and luckily we got 2 goals, this team we are playing against are 1 of the worst teams I’ve ever watched play and we simply can’t open them up and all, all this backwards play is horrible
02 Nov 2025 21:22:24
Agree Lotm he has shored up that right side defensively but going forward he’s crap.
01 Nov 2025 22:13:13
How was the game Scot I didn’t get to see any of it
26 Oct 2025 17:41:07
3 points and cold coffee sounds good to me Dave, reel in the years and bring a flask ??
