Spent much time thinking about Villas recent form.
I wonder in part if a part of our problem is what appears to be Emery's profile of player in regards to temperament.
Squad at times feels like a collective of yes men, who follow orders like loyal lieutenants which in theory is great, but at a squad it feels like those same qualities cause us issues as there are not many fighters,not many tough bastards with real fight.
We need some nasty bastards, some real leaders, some sore losers!
Not all nice chaps!
Would you agree?
Do we have any nasty bastards? Maybe Martinez?
What profile of player would you bring in?

@TotalVilla_ Not really, we have Tammy so you need a young or up and coming to be an impact sub also the free agent market

The problem with replacing players people want to move on (Watkins, Martinez, Digne, Buendia, Bailey etc) is that the level of replacements people want will cost more than we’d receive for them.
For example, a Watkins replacement would cost more than we’d get for him 💰 #avfc

@avfcbreaking I think he is trying to play him into the world cup and then cash in. Thats the only reason i can think of

Why does Emery keep starting Watkins...
2am this morning it hit me...
Try and play him back into form to increase his value to sell.
If we drop him now and sell it would be for pennies on the pound.
But a HUGE gamble if so considering potential loss of Champions League money.

@TheVillaPodcast Digne really? Matson 100% for me so much pace helps out when in the forward areas

@AlyssonSZN Bailey, Martinez & Watkins those wages alone in one year would allow us to buy a new player

@TouchlineX Man City do not have a large fan base compared to other teams, they were winning trophies when breaking rules. They have since had to fall in line due to now being in the spotlight. We will start to see Man City struggle like Villa to abide by PSR rules

🚨🗣️ Pep Guardiola on Manchester City's transfer market spending:
"I'm a little bit sad and upset because in net spend in the last five years, City are seventh in the Premier League."
"I want us to be first. I don't understand how the club don't spend more money."
"We won in the past because we spent a lot, now six teams have to win the Premier League, the UCL, the FA Cup, because they've spent more in the last five years. These are the facts."
"Good luck to the six teams who are in front of us in net spent in the last five years, let's go! I'm waiting."

@Alexa_vibe1 I can't I would be arrested because you are not able to speak your mind any longer

@KeslersznV2 By putting it in the media it alerted other clubs and drove up the prices

Fabrizio Romano says the Lucas paqueta deal collapsed because of him 😳
The timing of him tweeting destroyed the transfer #AVFC

@rona77935 One thing we couldnt hear and thats chelsea supporters singing

@YossiBenYakar The Police are too busy defending those spreading the hate

This isn’t me saying I want him sold, I just want to gauge the thoughts of the fan base.
Given what he’s done in previous seasons, as well as his age and form this season, how much would you want for Ollie Watkins? 🤔 #avfc

@WhatTheForkLads Loving this because all this work then the owners get bored and sell it for affordable housing and they have to ground share with Cov

@BROKENBRITAIN0 Another thing that will rise no doubt and that's their saleries paid for by the tax payer.
