Our counter attack will be so much more effective next season.

Emi2, Leon & Ollie on the counter will bring back memories of Young, Gabby & Downing.

Absolute blistering pace is what our midfield/attack has needed.

Good call.

Ollie will be well pleased.

See Mahrez. He's a quicker tempo but more direct. And has as good a left foot as Mahrez. Certainly better than Traroe.
No one has better left  foot than our Bert.

With Leon coming in it’s going to scare a lot of people now if Jack stays.

Great news, excited to see him. Hopefully double our money on him when we sell him in a couple of seasons.






Just joking guys!

I never really understand why people are overly concerned as to where we find our players. If they’re good what does it matter? Watkins and Emi are brilliant players and likewise so is Bailey. The fact two come from the Championship and one from the Bundesliga doesn’t seem overly relevant.

Off you jog Greasy, don't let the door hit your arse on the way out.

This is my first post after lurking for ages.

I'm not too good at this interweb thingy, but I hope this is a joke. "Greasy"!  >:(

I don’t know much outside of Villa, so I asked my lad when we were first linked to him.
He said he’s a £60m player.
So, given how clubs are needing to cash in on their assets, to get him for £30m is a bargain

Outstanding! When I left this morning it was all doom and gloom. Happy days indeed if we pull this off.

Well it doesn't really, but if you shop exclusively in the UK leagues you don't tend to get a lot of value for money, as we saw under O'Neill.

He is. Leverkusen need to sell after missing out on the Champs League. He is a serious player - the sort I would have expected to be going to Liverpool, Manure etc.
