Aaron Tshibola

[Ryu]

During this time ships often employed young boys to carry gun powder to the cannons. These boys were known as powder-monkeys.  So there's quite a strong school of thought that they just killed a French 12 year old who survived a shipwreck, which is far less funny but arguably more likely.

I've always doubted the hanged monkey story to be true as wouldn't it just climb up the rope making it impossible?

Anyway Reading fans seem gutted to lose this lad and if Gana goes he seems like a direct replacement in a vital position so I'm pretty happy about it.

[Risso]

Lets hope we Coe up with a better song for him than this!

Maybe something by Belle & Sebastian?

Stars of Track and Field?

(You chip em up...!)

That's gone way over my head

Doesn't Kevin Bond watch Bournemouth a lot too and will know of Elphick. Think he was a bit of steal in the end.

Did Tshibola play today? If so, any good?

[Phil from the upper holte]

Played first half. Not sure how

Sounds very much like he dodged the same question that got Bacuna into trouble.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Did somebody mention he had pace?

A season on loan with a decent team in the Championship will do him the world of good.

I thought he was decent enough. Had one good shot and got stuck in. With a better player alongside him he could be a solid player.

Westwood and him would benefit from playing next to one another rather than the sadly abysmal Gardner.

Villa would benefit from Westwood playing for another team

Well the midfield looked a fuck load better with him in it on Sunday.

technically looks solid and a decent athlete to boot, maybe a future box to box midfielder

unfortunately, like many British young players he appears to have zero tactical discipline or positional awareness

dont recall him putting in a tackle all night either

[cdbearsfan]

I thought he won the ball back a few times. I may have mis-remembered due to shell-shock.
