Just watched first half again and I thought Swinkels was excellent. Reminded me of a young Pau

[Mister E]

Pleased for Cam. That will boost his confidence.

Although the club never bothered Tweeting out his goal video.

Here you go

Really well taken goal. I've always liked the way he takes the ball into his stride, and his reliable finishing; both attributes of which Ollie has...

[N'ZMAV]

We're going to want £15mil for Cam I imagine, I can't see anyone obvious paying that.

I think the lad has been tidy for both pre-season games. The comparison to Pau is spot on.

My lad will be in Chicago visiting relatives when we play Club America and is asking where would be the best place to meet up with other Villa fans before and after the game?

Worth getting in touch with Chicago Villans, as mentioned above The Globe is the place where everyone is likely to meet the night before and after. https://www.theglobepub.com/
It will be a big meet for all US Villans as well as those traveling to the US.

Thanks ChicagoLion. He said he will drop them a message.

Was just looking him up and he was out for a year with a torn ACL. Only back playing since April. Definitely a Villa player.

VILLA VS CLUB AMERICA TICKET INFO
Due to issues with the allocation of official tickets (cost, location etc) we have decided to choose a single section of Soldier Field that we will recommend all Villa fans purchasing tickets in

The section is 254, and the link to the event is below (double check you have chosen the right section before hitting the “Purchase” Button). The section is located in the second tier of Soldier Field, just left of one of the goals.

Ticket prices in this section are just shy of $105 including all fees. We know this is extremely expensive compared to the other pre-season games, but it is cheaper than the sections we were offered.

Our goal is to get as many Villa fans in this section as possible, however, ticket sales are open to the general public in this section, so we recommend you secure a seat ASAP.

UTV, and see you all in the Windy City, my home-town, very soon.

£80 for a pre-season game. Fucking wankers.

Yeh it's $65 plus fees which comes to around $105. I'm likely still going but that should never be the price for a friendly.

[ChicagoLion]

Nothing to stop people buying tickets in other parts of the ground, but you probably want to avoid the Club America section though.

[Sexual Ealing]

Do you fuck want to avoid the Club America section.

[Matt C]

Was hoping to take my son to this one but it’s increasingly looking like a trip home to B6 will be cheaper.

[Risso]

Do you fuck want to avoid the Club America section.

Fuck yeah!

[ChicagoLion]

Do you fuck want to avoid the Club America section.

Fuck yeah!

Well I did warn you.

Out of interest, what’s the Club America section?
