Why is McGinn still captain when he doesn't speak Spanish?

Tom Hanks in attendance. Think it might be the first time?
Anyway, line up not bad, hope Duran gets on at some point though.

In royal quarters this is Prince William (Villa)vs Prince Harry (Arsenal)

Joe Cole, Peter Crouch and Martin Keown all on the bench.
BT sport. Villa old boys. All very respectful.

Can only assume the reason he's been out so long is because he was taking intensive Spanish lessons, maybe in Dublin.

Hopefully it won’t end in a scuffle again.

Happy with the team, hopefully Phil continues his form from last week, also would like to see big Jhon get at least 20 mins.

He could well have doubled up with an English course.

Interesting hearing about expectations Purslow said its going to be a very busy summer.
Crouch says our fan expectations are a hindrance.
Keown says from all clubs he was at that us Villa fans are the most difficult to please and unforgiving.

Well he probably had a double of something! But good luck to Ginny today. Hopefully he'll be shackling Saka.

This reiterates what a disaster our January window was.

Harry didn't fight back.
