Be entirely appropriate for the club that was in the days of HDE compared to Crossroads to have a front man called Diagne.  Paired with Bennyrhama.
we never really replaced Meg Mortimer and Sandy Richardson in the midfield


An older mate of mine once recalled chants of "your going home like Sandy Richardson" when an opposition player was down injured and needed treatment at Villa Park. Another mate of mine who was ten years younger who was part of the conversation innocently asked "Was Sandy Richardson someone who played for Villa"?
His career was at a crossroads and he chose another route

Just watched a Diagne highlights video - has to be the worst I’ve ever seen! Full of scuffed shots, missed passes, over dribbling. But then his stats speak for themselves. Which I guess just proves those videos show you nothing at all.

A showing of a little bit of skill wouldn’t go amiss though, he looks like he couldn’t trap a bag of the proverbial and has the movement of another proverbial

Dean said something about things 'aligning'.  I wonder if the Benrahma transfer is linked to swaps or other outgoing transfers being done?  John Percy called it last night and he's not wrong too often.  Benrahma belongs to Brentford, so why wouldn't he train with them?  Tshibola, Hogan, Kalinic and BB perhaps tied up somewhere because Villa have a squad of around 30 first team squad players at the moment.
