No doubt he'll rotate with Teilemans and will start 20 or so games

Welcome back Ross, hopefully you replicate your form for Everton last season.

I'd rather he replicate his Luton form tbh

Oh dear…

Yeah, I'm afraid the normally astute algy has dropped a ricket there.

So long as he realises he's not going to be an automatic starter and he buckles down instead of sulking he'll be fine, it's really up to him.

As long as he doesn't get the arse again if he's subbed/not first choice. He's going to find Champions League Aston Villa are an extremely different proposition to relegated Luton.

Absolutely his attitude will be critical here. All the best and welcome back Ross.

Lucky boy must be pinching himself.

Either way, Good Luck Ross. Prove the critics wrong.

He seems to have had the realisation that he's running out of time career-wise and got his act together. Based on that, his Luton form and Emery being the manager, I think it's a good signing.

I'll try not to sulk, and accept that I might need a period in the H&V stiffs to get back up to speed.

Look, he's always had the talent, we know that, but does he have the discipline?

Barkley on the other hand looks a good deal.

A season long loan to the Wrexham forum is probably the best for all concerned.
