In my view he’s been bought as an experienced back up to Nyland and Steer and nothing more. People really are adding 2 and 2 together and getting 5.We ll see who really knows summation come Brighton next week.I'm prepared to hold hands up but Reina is number 1 as he wouldn't move otherwise .As well as the obvious that he's in a different league to what we have.But you keep counting will see in a week.Arrant nonsense mate. He’s not number 1 at his current club and he certainly isn’t in a different league to either Nyland or Steer. He was a bloody good keeper back in the day, he’s coming to the end of his career and I think will be a happy back up to the others whilst offering some decent experience.Go back to school for your maths. Reina is number 1 The quotes below explain why such a keeper was signed. I already have an understanding of the intricacies of top level football clubs .Those who advocate some second rate keeper like Nyland ,chocolate wrists as souness called him v Man city, don't really get it in my opinion. Dean Smith on new signing Pepe Reina…“He has settled in fine straightaway, which is what I’d expect.“With Tom Heaton getting injured, I think everybody knew at the start of the season I was looking for a goalkeeper with Premier League experience.“Tom has been a big plus for us this season already, unfortunately he got injured.“We then only had two recognised senior goalkeepers. It was important we moved quickly and we’re very fortunate to get someone so vastly experienced who has got leadership qualities within the dressing room as well.“We’re really pleased to have Pepe in the building.“He’s vastly experienced, a leader, he will be a voice in the dressing room that we need as well.”That is all

Well I'm not fickle - not saying you are. I don't say anything about you tbh as you're entitled to your football views Don't get me started on the absolute horrific views and comments in the formation of a Dean Smith out thread.I think go after those people who will be critical of Dean Smith as Smith is brilliant in my view.
Great save at the end.
Reina started v Brighton and put in an assured and commanding display.Top agility for saving Maupay overhead kick.Won't be best pleased conceding as was bit too close to near post for Trossard goal baiting him to shoot across from tight angle.Other than that Villas number 1 goal keeper had little of real note to doWas vocal throughout and in distribution was communictating to defenders what's around them to help them not get caught in possession.Reserve keeper Nyland was watching on from the bench as he's a back up .
