Augustin is a very similar type of player to that Berardi that we were linked to the other day - i.e. someone I’ve never heard of and know nothing about.

Did he play against us on Saturday? I don’t recall him

Sounds Juicy.

I'd never heard of this Augustin fella but if he's the backup option then I'm pretty happy. His goal stats aren't that great but he's still young and looking at the videos of him he looks like a great prospect.

Surprised we let Maupay join Brighton? A no brainer for me that he should have been signed. I hope we get a proven goalscorer by Thursday.

Just had a look. The man has moves!

Agree. Wouldn't be delighted to go into the season with no backup/alternative for Wesley.

Well, he wasn't our player so maybe we had no say in it? Obviously we are a bigger club, but players have chosen not to sign for us before. Better chance of starting or not having to move house might have swayed him, for instance.

Just under a year ago Maupay was public enemy number 1 on this site, with some saying his, and Brentford's, behaviour should rule Smith out of ever being Villa manager.

As a famous philosopher once said, it's a funny old game.

I vaguely remember Brentford being cheating bastards. Don't particularly remember Maupay's involvement.

Stamped on SJM iirc.

Where's the Benrahma thread disappeared to?

Didn't he stamp on one of our players at VP?

Have forgotten that. I'm sure I was apoplectic at the time knowing me!
