Wasn't bronte quite generous with his scores last game? Either he's turned over a new leaf, or I've started to dream about his posts, which would be concerning.

He was as he’d obviously taken all of our piss taking to heart by posting scores that none of
Us could disagree with. That said I quite like someone having a view of the Villa that would make L’Equipe match reporters blush in its unremitting negativity. Then again he’s a positive ray of sunshine compared to several utter ****** on here I could mention.

Another Cup Final.
Please turn up for this one .

-------- Martinez ---------
Cash Konsa Mings Digne
-- Kamara - Tielemans --
-------- McGinn ----------
Ramsey ---------- Rogers
-------- Watkins ---------
Unless Pau gets injured, Mings won’t start any of the last three games. Agree with it or not, Unai has set his stall out on this one.

We have to win but I think we'll get done 3-1.

It's probably been mentioned well before now, but during the commentary on Saturday's game it was stated that there is only one player who has played more games under Unai Emery than Pau Torres has played, throughout Unai's coaching career. That's how highly he rates him.

I'm sure there was a quote somewhere as well where Emery described him as his perfect centre-back.

Unfortunately some are probably going to have to get used to the idea that Emery's Villa probably have Pau Torres as the left-sided centre-back.

Unless we start outscoring teams again then we are going to have problems as clearly evidenced .

In the Sky feature with Ramsay & Rogersthey were asked who were Unai’s favourites and they said it was 2 players - they both agreed that it was Bouba and Pau.
