McGinn after all these years, drives this team on. He is  a Villa legend.
This.


Two and half million quid, FFS!

Win one league game and Heroes and Villains breaks.

How long was the site down. I only tried logging on this afternoon


As for the game, I think that the Ref should have been VAR’d to the screen to at least have a look at that tackle on Digne.

He’s the one I noticed on MOTD - it was difficult not to notice him, really!

Pau was good again.

Weirdly the Mings injury turned the game for us, we looked much better when Torres was in there.

Mings is a better player but with Pau, we move the ball much better and that suits our game.   He was good today and on Thursday, hoping this is the standard he's set for himself.  Played well.

I don’t think Mings is a better player. He’s a different player, but both at their best Pau is more important to us. Mings is a better physical defender, Pau is better positionally and on the ball.


I have to admit that I’ve been firmly in the Mings camp on this debate so far, but without pace out wide we have to go with Torres to feed quality balls into the midfield box of 4.

I can only think of one signing that was better value for money. Paul something or other.

Yes, King looks a fine prospect. I was surprised that they took him off but perhaps he was tiring; after all, he's only eighteen.

On the other hand, I was disappointed with star signing Kevin, who was well held by Cash, who seems to save his best games for Fulham.
