Emi Buendia

[paul_e]

Fair play to him, he's had a great season and scored a belter, wish he'd scored or squared that other chance though, would've been one of the best goals we've ever scored.

Is our wee man in with a shout of getting to the World Cup?

Yes he is already in the squad.

He's in the provisional 55 player squad. Official 26 player squad TBC.

[The Man With A Stick]

Argentina should give him the number 10 shirt, he's worthy of it.

Yep, that entire move was brilliant, and Youri's pass breathtaking.  Ollie was on the six-yard line for a tap-in.  You could see it straight away.  I can forgive it given we were 3-0 to the good, but if he does that at 0-0 I think he's getting pelters from the crowd.  But I also think that at 0-0 he doesn't go for that finish.

I don't think he can do much more.  He's had a very good season, scored some important goals, some brilliant goals, and aldo created really important goals at the very top level.  Obviously Argentina are blessed in the attacking areas, but if he can't get in after this season, he never will.

Redemption arc complete

[Villa Lew]

He was superb last night, on his day there are only a few Premier League players better than him.

Remarkable redemption really.

[Somniloquism]

The fan showed filming was "oh here's Emi" and then you can see him suddenly go "fuck, he is climbing in",

[Tony Daleys Shorts]

Fair play to Darren Fletcher on commentary for the 2nd goal.

‘Buendia with a beauty on the banks of The Bosphorus!’

Worth a new banner at Villa Park.

He’s up there for player of the season surely? I saw someone mention most improved, but that sounds rather insulting now. He’s been sensational the later part after spending most of the season being rather good!

Unbelievable turnaround and more than fulfilled the potential from when we signed him.
