He also seems to have turned Chelsea down to sign for us, so fair play. Plenty of players would have just taken the easy London playboy option.

*cough* Conor Gallagher.

Happy with this signing. A total no brainer.

He's desperate to come back, I think. There was a video knocking around where he was on a stream talking to fans and said "I miss Villa, guys. I miss Villa Park", or something along those lines. He looked truly gutted about it. Wanted to give him a hug.

Great to have him back. Needs to find his level immediately as how he settles is now absolutely vital.

Would have preferred Doug over Gallagher anyway so we've ended up better off here.

Can't wait to see his beautiful face, his silky skills and his fishing rod at Villa Park again!

Let's hope this works out, he has been in the wilderness career wise since we sold him and I think we are expecting the 2023 version of him.

I think we broke the PL record in December.

Can he take a pen, can't recall? That's assuming we get one this season.

No, we're on track to do it. Chelsea got 23 in 06/07, we're currently on 13.
