Blimey Paul, you’re coming out with some classic one liners.
First, about the Billy Goats and now this 😂

Amadou Onana: “I’ve asked Unai Emery & his staff to speak to me in Spanish so I can answer in Spanish. I already speak five languages — Wolof, from my childhood growing up in Senegal, French, German, English & Dutch. But I’m learning a sixth (Spanish)..”

That's a great attitude multi-linguists have, eager to test themselves and learn more. I imagine/hope it's reflected in his character generally. He could make a great captain for us one day.

Topic for discussion  Sky Sports Article
Onana to partner Tielemans?
Meanwhile, Onana, who played every minute for Belgium in Euro 2024 and joined Villa from Everton for £50m this summer, offers an exciting option for the club to turn to.

His aggressive and all-action approach to the game will excite fans, while also offering some much-needed height and physicality to the squad
While he is not a genuine holding midfielder, his ability to break up play, drive the team forward and regularly find a team-mate after retaining the ball will help relieve any pressure Villa are facing throughout the game.

His international team-mate Youri Tielemans seems to be the likely pairing for him in midfield moving forward, with the duo impressing during a recent 3-2 win against Athletic Bilbao.

Im excited about onana tbh. We havent had a midfielder likw thia for a long while.

I think he will be explosive in a good way. Just a shame dougies not here.  I think a midfield of dougie and onana would have been one of the best in the league

Decent debut.

Even without the goal, he was physical & controlled on the ball.

Add the goal to that & it was a decent start to his life at Villa.
