Haven’t seen the games to be fair but 17 shots for Villa vs 9 for Brentford and 76% possession to Villa. I guess Villa’s chances weren’t as good?

This will be a tough test. Villa had way better stats in the games vs Brentford and Palace and were unlucky to lose, especially by 3 goals to Palace. Hopefully the crowd gives us the edge.

Giving a 2 year contract to a young player isn’t a glowing endorsement in your belief in them.

He’s still got to find his feet and learn to fight for the ball more but looks like he has technique and skill. He’ll come good, just give him time.

Think the balance in midfield still isn’t right, assuming Garner is left back. We need a new DM or Garner there. Worry we may get overrun when out of possession again.

Probably right there. I don't understand why the recruitment team have bought him if Moyes doesn't want him though. Looks like a player with a lot of skill from what I've seen so hope Moyes does give him chances.

I believe in you Barry, ignore all the people writing you after after a pre season game, in which you almost scored and had an assist. I hope Moyes plays you tomorrow.

Aznou is an attacking minded fullback.

No idea if Dibling is good enough but Scholes was really impressed with how he played against United last season. Positive signing if we can get him, even if overpriced a bit. Just hope he can find his feet and be productive fairly quickly as many of our fans won't be patient, especially given...

Don't work bank holiday weekends and have to give Spurs\Palace a chance to hijack the transfer ... :lol:

This would be funny, if I didn’t think is was half true …

Not much time left in the window and our recruitment team is catatonic. Amazing level of 4d chess playing if they manage to recover this window.

Aznou has played on the wing before, so possible.

Yes, but why buy him if you don’t rate him?

I agree with not starting him but he brought him on so late. Beto was adding nothing really. He barely got much service but even the few times he did, was losing it.
