I agree Risso, I think if we can get him fit and starting he will make more of an impact more consistently than the rat did. He’s an incredible talent.

Made all the more delicious by the fact that I can’t see Man City winning the league this year.

We’ve finally replaced Dwight.

Easy now. Dwight Yorke did it to this level over many, many years. Leon Bailey looks a super talent and that’s about as good a home debut albeit a cameo as you will know ever see. But before we elevate him to the level of on the truly unique talents we have ever had let’s see him do it for a bit.

A goal and two assists in 50-odd minutes game time.

As seemingly a rare Bundesliga watcher on here I told you he was class.

Will be a brilliant option for us in end to end games. So frustrating if he can't make next week or Spurs.
Any other gems hiding in plain sight over there?

Just glad I saw his introduction today. Potentially a huge player for Villa.

We have lacked a player with real pace for some time.
This guy is quick.

He’ll get bums off seats, he’s got the wow factor without a doubt.

He strikes me as a bit of a maverick, a bit Cantona-like. But Eric didn’t do too badly did he?

 He'll fill the gap until Trez gets back.

This is why people were excited when we were linked to him back in June. Could well be the next 100m player we sell eventually. He's good enough to play left, right or centre imo. A Traore (Wolves version) who can beat  players and can cross and finish.
