But it does show that not all Villans are from Birmingham. We’re a broad church which is proof that we’re a world renowned club.
Or, you're not authentic; unlike those rascals from Small (and I mean small) Heath.

This is a great interview. I like Balague too. My big take from it is the control that UE has is the main reason we need not worry about other “bigger” clubs taking him from us.

Did Bertie decorate Guillem's gaff? I'm not sure which is worse, Guillem's shirt or his wallpaper and curtains.

*I also like Balague and his positivity about Unai and the Villa.

I try very hard to wipe that season out of my memory. We only beat Bmouth away. Palace at home and some other unfortunate team.

We are obviously total imposters whereas Wolves are the absolute pillars.

Just shows how shit Wolves are if that team had 5 more points than them at the same point.

Bizarrely we should have won at Leicester. Right on top until Sherwood brought subs on!

The probability of Rogers backheeling Maatsen’s smashed-across-the-face-of-goal volley into the net on Sunday was almost 80% according to xg, while the chance of him scoring his second v West Ham was 2%.

Can anyone explain to me how that’s not a load of bollocks?

That 2nd half is probably the biggest sliding doors moment in the history of both Villa and Leicester. We hold on for the 2-0 win and I honestly think the season would've gone very differently but that defeat broke Sherwood and that led to the split in the squad that killed us. On the other hand Leciester took that 3rd(I think) consecutive comeback win as a huge confidence boost and just rode through on that all season.
