Nothing wrong with him. He’s just embarrassed to miss that chance.

That’s what I said to my son.

Not sure you’re right. Fingers crossed it’s not serious, but he’s not moving freely and twatting your shin/knee into the post will hurt.

Yes, I wasn’t altogether serious. He’s definitely moving gingerly.

Looked like his knee twisted wrong when he collided.
That's what I said but F in Dixon going on about his shin and shin pads :-[

We desperately need Ollie to avoid any serious injury. I’d be very surprised if he plays in the second half.

Anyone good on stats? When was the last time 2 Villa players scored for England?

And if Harvey Elliot did that we'll understand.

Watkins and Mings both scored in a 3-0 win over Ivory Coast a few years back.

Can't imagine there will have been a more recent one.

They once won 13-0 with nine goals shared between two Villa players. I won't mention the opposition for fear of upsetting a regular poster.

Looks like he has put Rashford as left wing and moved Gordan upfront.

Bent and Young scored against Denmark back in the day.

It is a friendly we are winning 3-0 so no need to keep Ollie on at all. If he leaves the camp before Tuesday then that is when we need to be concerned.
