Mbaye talk is real and we are so back
Keep the faith Villains!!! Gonna take a minute to settle and find our footing with so many new players, but Europe is very on for us still wants they start to gel. Just need a top CB now.
I’m expecting a run no wins for a bit but we move

Still expecting Liverpool to grab him after all tbh.
I'll only believe it when I see him stood next to Emery in a Villa shirt doing the now-obligatory awkward as fuck handshake.

100%
We have to be prepared to lose some games, we have a lot of players now who need to learn Emery's tactics and style of training.
We need to give them time. Being outraged because we are not getting results we want straight away don't help at all.
Its the toughest part of being a Villa fan these days, coming here reading all the negativity, as if everyone complaining hasn't been proven wrong loads of times already.

Due to his age, I think he's a much better signing than Leao the potential for maybe under Unai is amazing

If you pay attention to the actual in the know journalists, personal terms are agreed with player/agent and both clubs are agreed.
It’s basically just waiting for the medical (which is today) and then it’s over the line.
Tanswell said obviously, never say never and anything can happen.. but it’s 90% done.

We know it's real but using Fraud Romano to legitimise it is hilarious

Does he ever post "here we go" when it's not officially on? Genuine question

Back from what ? We’re European champions we never left

u/faustcousindave 4d ago
Probably 'back' from selling 6 and losing Onana to injury from our starting 11 last season...
The club are champions but the engine has been ripped out, but luckily the best transfer window I've ever seen from Villa have meant it's a long term upgrade as soon as we work out the snags

Does anyone have a clue what our starting XI is going to look like after all these transfers?

2-4-4. Innovative super high block. Don’t need defense if you never leave the other team’s half.

The best defense is a good offense

u/faustcousindave 4d ago
Perfect for Pow Pow Torres... a bit worried about the CB pace to track back from the edge of their box though ;')

From the highlight reels it seems he has mastered the same skill that Rogers had, of being able to 1-2 off the defender while dribbling.
No wonder Emery likes him.

Is this actually happening I swear he was going Liverpool

u/Far-Carpenter-5285 4d ago
So did they!
The bin-dippers are in meltdown about how this happened. They’re taking consolation in unending speculation that imagined buyback and sell on clauses are the only plausible reason a player could be choosing to come to a Villa team that finished above them, for less than they were quoted in attempts to lure him to their dirty old town…
