It's what you get when Alex McLeish and Chris Herd spend too much time on one-to-one training at Bodymoor Heath circa 2012.

Did you hear the one about Chris Heard, Fabian Delph and James Collins? That was unsavory business

No?

When I predicted that Spain would have a dominant influence on player recruiting, some people laughed in my face.
We can expect the incoming to have a predominant profile of players who speak and understand Spanish. The evidence is very clear now as Mateu Alemany comimg in.
I knew what I was talking about.
Gracias y buenas noches.

Si arrojas tanta mierda como lo haces, es seguro que algo se pegará eventualmente.

They were involved in a fracas . It was after player season awards 2012.
A nightclub named Gatecrasher in Birmingham saw the 3 of them at 245am in the morning being unruly.

It’s a joke about when a Welshman, an Australian and a snake enter a bar.

They weren't allowed into the bar! Refused entry and all kicked off.
I believe under Emery we won't have that sort of player they will be ousted from the club.

[Risso]

I don't think we have any of those sorts of players now. Whatever you think of their abilities, they all appear to be top pros. We got rid of the last pissed up arsehole we had when we sold Grealish.

We've been linked to Kyle Walker!  That would be interesting. On the field fantastic off the field a few issues.

Interesting fact about McLeish was that he only wanted to sign Scottish players because of the language barrier.

Does he speak Spanish then? I hope so because he can barely speak English.

You jest, but I noticed that on 'Trawlermen' they have subtitles for some of the Scottish fishermen. Maybe that's where it all went wrong.

To be fair, my mate flatshared with a lad from Larkhall, just south of Glasgow, for a few years.  It took me about a year before I understood anything he said. 

Spoke at high speed, with a pronounced accent (to the point where a good number of Scots couldn't understand him either), heavy usage of Glasgow-area dialect (well beyond your usual 'ken', 'dreich', etc), and used swearwords as a form of punctuation.  Funny lad beyond that, and one of the most entertaining storytellers I've ever met ... but bloody hell, you had to put in the initial work with him.

No thanks. he's a knob.

Fact: All players in Spain and Portugal have release clauses.

Mateu Alenany and Emery will have expertise dealing with these kind of agreements, and I believe we will sign a few players from these leagues. The Spain influence be willing to meet even the largest of release clauses so exciting times and there's an expectation to be bringing in some top champions league level players.

I thought it was a duty to let those who weren't aware of this information on player contracts and the fact that release clauses are included for all players in those leagues know about it.

Up The Villa!

Hi, thanks for this. Just to put your mind at ease though, there's no duty, and certainly no expectation from anyone, for you to post all of your knowledge.

And regarding signing players from Spain, we already know that's what you think.
