I wouldn’t tell anybody if Unai did. Not a premier league footballer never mind a Villa one.

You can see Unai was keen to protect him when he came off. He actually made a beeline to him. To reassure him. Thought he looked decent. Needs minutes and confidence.

So slack on the ball. So many poor decisions made by him. But then he does two things that are almost unique.

Recruitment has been average for a while. It’s all stale. Attitude in some is almost sulking. We aren’t athletic, don’t get around the pitch. Ball moves slowly. Nothing to like! #avfc

Anybody seen Ross Barkley?

Whole thing looks a bit stale to me. No verve. Manager has to take the shackles off a bit I think.

I’ve read it. Given it to my 12 year old to read while we are on Holiday. Fascinating anecdotes. The quality of the contributors as well.

Stale and ponderous. Not built for the premier league at the moment. Stale. You could really start making wild assumptions of it all being very fed up of each other!!!

It’s his understanding when to run and when to pass. Move the ball quickly. When you can hurt teams then dribble.
August 23, 2025 at 4:35 PM
Agree on Rogers. Has to understand if you are struggling as an individual or as a team just move the ball quicker. Whole team looks a bit lost. Manager as well. Concerning start. Whole club needs a positive week.

Rogers was awful. We can’t run. So therefore have to move the ball quickly. We don’t do that’s Pau really poor 12 months. Unai looks a bit lost with it really. Not played well since Palace handed our arses to us at Wembley.

Training away from first team I believe.

You can feel the momentum building towards if he came back that all else would be forgotten. If it’s going to happen it happens this summer. Would he want it? If Unai wants it it happens?

I’m up for kicking the tyres. Ball retention has been a problem for us. He offers us a lot of that and his ability to go past players. If he can do it still? Wonder about the injuries and how they are impacting him. I was surprised when we saw him at VP earlier in the season by a lack of pace!
June 6, 2025 at 10:24 AM
Yep. Two or three. He will be rebuilding it again. Im normally pretty sentimental about Villa players but the big games and some of the performances in those games make me think that all are available really and I’ll understand why. (Maybe except Ezri Konsa).
May 25, 2025 at 6:47 PM
Some big performances from some of the more unheralded players. Thought Matty Cash was outstanding! Euro Villa again!
May 10, 2025 at 8:44 PM
Just shows how difficult it is to find an elite centre back who can do both. Ty’s comeback over the past 2 months is remarkable. Playing at a high level. I’d expect to see Ty and Ez play at Wembley next Saturday against Mateta.

Change it all. Except the goalkeeper!!! Never change the goalkeeper! Who plays as the wide players on dilemma? I’d suggest a bigger game next Saturday?
April 12, 2025 at 7:25 AM
I’m now in the queue until 9.30!
April 11, 2025 at 8:09 AM
Popping to Paris on the way back?
April 7, 2025 at 7:59 PM
I’ll rephrase because I do agree with you. He always liked the nicer parts of the game more than the more ugly stuff.
