Other Games - 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup Edition (+ warm-up matches): Villa-watch

[Flamingo Lane]

I'm sure Hitz used to sound more Brummie.

He's a master at languages and accents. He seems such a nice fella.

[Ian.]

Shearer still talking about wingers whipping it in. It’s all I’ve heard from him for a good week now.

[Sexual Ealing]

Shearer still talking about wingers whipping it in. It’s all I’ve heard from him for a good week now.

This is one of my absolute bugbears with commentators/pundits. 'It was a great ball but there was nobody there!' It wasn't a great ball then!

[Brazilian Villain]

1-1, great header from Havertz.

[Somniloquism]

Booger.

I blame SE for talking about crosses.

[devilla]

And we all know what happens now don't we?

[eamonn]

Der Hammer is great

Hopefully his autobiography will get an English translation soon.

Agree. He's looking good as well.

Yes, I can't believe our collective gaydar was off all those years.

[Somniloquism]

I don't think the sexuality of any of our players really mattered to me then or now.

[PeterWithesShin]

[PeterWithesShin]

Could that sub look any more German?

[FatSam]

The Paraguayan keeper seems decent.

[Somniloquism]

Could that sub look any more German?

Woltermade? The cloning of Rudi Voller went wrong when they dropped some strains of Peter Crouch in.

[FatSam]

Could that sub look any more German?

Only if he was leaning against a white Opel Manta wearing a stone-washed denim jacket.

[PeterWithesShin]

Could that sub look any more German?

Woltermade?

Think it was Voller.

[Brazilian Villain]

Extra-time it is. It hasn't been a classic.
