Heaton, Engels, Douglas, Phillips, Trezeguet, Maupay and the Brentford winger and I’ll be happy.

Greedy?

Brazilians are like buses, you don’t see one for years (or ever in our case) and then two come along at once!

Squad numbers ......11A and 11C ?
There was also the occasional 11E if we sign a third.

This transfer window is Aston Villa in a parallell universe.

These owners are showing some real ambition.

It's all quite mental. Players just signing without any warning.
Looks like we have an a, b and c list. If a club asks too much for a player (greedy c*%ts) we already have someone else lined up. It's quite brilliant (and exhausting), but I love it.

Fuck me, if he's that good we might have to enjoy it while it lasts, don't think he'd stick around with us for very long.

It's alright doing it in the Bernabeu, but can he do it on a cold Friday night at Turf Moor?

Bollocks, he will stick around playing Champions League football in two-three years at Villa (fingers crossed).

I wonder if this is what it felt like for Chelsea and Man City fans when Abramovitch and Mansour first rocked up?

Looking forward to being known as “Big-spending Aston Villa” from now on.

“Pep wanted to keep him at City.”
“Tite wants him to be Brazil’s number 4.”
“Given the opportunity, he’ll be one of the best midfielders in Europe.”

In an ideal world, football wouldn't be like this.

However, this is the Premier League in 2019, so feck it all and let's be the next Man City
