Ollie Watkins takes a step closer to the last four of the Europa League and, surely, a step closer to the World Cup. Useful option off the bench for England. #BOLAVL
@danbardell@theavfcfaithful I’m honestly not being OOT here when I say: I think this is the exact moment I fell out of love with football. It’s absolutely awful. Maybe I’m old? 🤷
This Chelsea huddle is one of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen in football.
Doing it in the centre circle as if it’s some sort of marginal gain is another one of those moments where football is eating itself up.
It’s not clever, it’s just self indulgent rubbish.
Since their 8-game winning streak, Villa have been the definition of inconsistent 🫨🎢
Emery's side haven't had the same result twice in a row for 🔟 games 🤨
@PL__OOC No player has ever dined out on a tournament win like he has. It wasn’t just for one season after, he has done it for every season since. Incredible really. He’s not a bad keeper but he isn’t a world class by any stretch.
One of the most absurd scenes from 2025.
Emiliano Martínez says goodbye to Aston Villa with tears in his eyes, believing he would have many transfer offers, but ultimately staying because absolutely no one wanted him 😭
I am reading about the history of the Cadbury Boost bar, which I remember being introduced in 1985. I opened the section marked Popularity, but was disappointed to find that this was the only information given..
@jackluckhurst16@WhatTheForkAVFC@BrentfordFC Nobody is saying the reason we lost, or the reason this goal was disallowed because of a poor referee. It’s because the VAR disallowed it because the ball went of out of play 20 seconds before we scored. Also, I’m not saying it didn’t go out of play because it definitely did. UTV
🚨 Crystal Palace in talks with Aston Villa to sign Evann Guessand on loan. 24yo winger also subject of strong interest from multiple European clubs but #CPFC regarded as favourites at present; pursued Ivory Coast int’l before #AVFC transfer @TheAthleticFCnytimes.com/athletic/70066…
Will write more on for Friday but #AVFC are mostly manager-led in recruitment so Emery can tend to stick with what he knows when presented with options. He wanted a CM (& ST) who adapt quickly. Has good relationship with Douglas Luiz & player is very, very excited about returning
@omaakatugba Yep fair play
As a Villa fan I found out Champions league games more winnable and enjoyable than Premier league games. That said, I did enjoy winning at Newcastle
At Newcastle’s pre match presser in Paris, I asked Anthony Gordon to explain the difference between Champions League football and the Premier League. His answer 👇
