Aston Villa banter 2

Emery needs to light a fire under everyone at half time, 10 shots 1 on target, messing about way to much at the back we are going to get punished, need to move the ball faster and get Watkins off the pitch he's as useful as a chocolate teapot

Whack, Watkins gets worse every game and Abrahams is definitely not the answer. Whoever sanctioned the Malen move wants shooting. Sancho, Dougie Bailey Abrahams are not the answer to our problems and again our transfer policy is definitely not helping matters. Guessand was our highest cost recent singing and that sums up our recruitment policy.

Man Utd 95th equaliser, jammy buggers, but once again, scores could have gone worse .UTV

We would definitely settle for Chelsea and Man Utd dropping points, If we don't take advantage by winning tomorrow it will be a massive lost opportunity. To many more home defeats could prove to be the decisive factor in champions league qualification.

The other lads in claret and blue are doing us a favour so far 🔨🔨

I see Malen scored both goals in Roma's victory over Cagliari tonight. Just saying.

10 Feb 2026 13:01:56
MD, personally I would have kept Malen over Tammy and I think it was definitely a poor decision, he was a good option when Ollie wasn't at the races.

Agree Scottie. Blimey, that’s a first 😂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

First time for everything MD, I don't think most of us are ever in total agreement, that's what makes this site so interesting, even though we can't all agree it's good to hear the miriad of views and it does provoke thought and debate.

I see the London press are at it again, saying Chelsea are preparing a £100 million bid for Rogers and putting it in such a way as if we should be grateful. I know every player has his price but the bidding needs to start at a player who plays in a similar position.

So Florian Wirtz cost I believe somewhere in the region of £116 million that has to be the starting point for any Rogers bid and for us to even consider a sale it needs to be a British record fee in my view.

I think he'll be at Real Madrid at the start of next season - He'll have an incredible World Cup and he'll join Madrid, and I don't think we'll entertain any bids lower than 120M, he's the next big English superstar and I just don't see him at Chelsea.It's how Villa replace him that makes me nervous, do you try and find a direct replacement or replace him (in the aggregate) across 2 or 3 players?

09 Feb 2026 17:52:43
I’d ask for 150 million especially selling to a rival team. I agree on the Real Madrid thing I think he’s better than Chelsea.

We done the 3 players thing with grealish and it didn’t really work out the best, there are great players in south America I think we need to focus over there to find a gem or 2… I’d look for a direct replacement for him and spend about 60 million if we’re serious about being a full time champions league team

09 Feb 2026 18:10:57
I think he will go but I think he will stay in the PL and it will be Chelsea he ends up at. I agree we need to push the price up as high as we can. In terms of replacements we are not going to be able to sign 2 or 3 because of the SCR restrictions so if we are going to sign two or three quality players then two or three of our top salaried players will need to go as well, I think replacements will need to be sourced from leagues other than the PL as salary demands will be much lower.

What a ridiculous ending to the Liverpool game . Seconds to go, six of one and half a dozen of the other tackles, ref gives the goal, then VAR get involved. They are ridiculed by nearly everyone involved in football, yet the once again prove that there's no such thing as common sense involved.

Even the City players couldn't understand any of it, especially the sending off . Just another reason for people to say enough is enough. UTV

Tbh I can understand the logic in this decision, call a spade a spade here if it had happened in the 20th minute the city players would of being celebrating the red card. if he hadn’t of being sent off then the narrative tonight would be sky six conspiracie stories about the ref protecting Liverpool players.

Garry Neville was mad for city to win that game and his opinion has had a big part in making it controversial
