AstonVilla 24 Posted June 23, 2021 1 hour ago, WD40 said: Can you confirm Villa fans on your forum want us to do poorly because of our ‘toys out of Pram’ reaction to you signing Emi? I think at the time there was some offence taken by some comments made with regards to why Emi would sign for us, and the obv reaction to that was to hit back. Whilst I can’t speak for other people on the forum, I for one would love to see Norwich stay up, and do brilliantly. I respect the way you play football, and the way you do well despite such a small budget. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Moss 2,165 Posted June 23, 2021 A question for the Villa fans, what’s the play on words associating Rashica with all things fish? I’m presuming his surname translates to something like Mullet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gordon Bennett 780 Posted June 24, 2021 The best thing about this transfer is that no one had a clue it was happening until it was announced, it wasn't whined about or played out in the media for weeks. Lovely. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lovely. Yep, I like the surprise signings as well, Webber’s the master at it! That said, it’s nice when there’s a player rumoured that we all (pretty much ha ha) like and want to see come through the Colney doors, and then that comes to fruition. Will be interesting to see what further incomings we’ve got coming. Am already prepared to lose Max, but will be gutted if Todd moves on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The entire thread is carp, basa-ically 400 pages of pollocks, angling for an argument, hake-ing us out to be nothing short of minnows in a big pond. Bream on Villa fans! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He’s not as “intricate” - I’d say. but he’s faster, and more keen to run at goal, and take on his man directly. I’d say he’s actually more of an “upgrade to Hernandez” than a Buendia replacement. hints at a change of playing style - unless we are about to spend another £10 or so on another winger/number 10 (which I doubt) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
