A player worth looking at in jan Duran from Celtic looks a good young player and knows where the net is.
Would still like a top cb Mario Gila from AC Milan or Schlotterbeck from Dortmund would be class.

I think thats a good point Brentford are a good side,i cant see us do much this season 10th to 8th players we bought rnt as good as the 1s we sold and if rumours are true that unai wants out at end of season as well u cant blame he cant do anything with this team its pants, but theres still hope we will click but i doubt it.

VJ not you being negative again is it ??.
22 Sep 2026 10:40:09
So all the talk now in media and online is that unai will jump to man utd here we go again he wont go to united yes there a bigger club but there finished and damaged club from top to bottom only 3 jobs i see unai leaving to go to barca, real, and Spain job,and plus why would he risk his reputation by going to united look how many managers have failed as well unai rebuilt his rep by being at villa.
1.) 22 Sep 2026 19:58:19
I couldn't see him going to United either, although there are probably a few more clubs than the ones you mentioned where he might move next. I could see him in Italy before United.
I honestly believe he's here for the long haul, if he gets this team clicking he will want to build his legacy.

Looks like vist Rwanda is gonna be Villa new front shirt sponsor worth 20mil a season never herd of them but it looks like a good deal if its true.
1.) 14 Jul 2026 17:22:16
Will not be buying a shirt with that on the front of the shirt. Disappointed, but money talks.
2.) 14 Jul 2026 17:38:03
Doesn't bother me. I'll buy it. Wot do people want? We've got the biggest shirt sponsor in the Club's history. Who cares about everything else. Money talks, I'm afraid. There is too much politics coming into football as well.
{Ed001's Note - moral vacuum.}

100% Jonny. Without saying what the issue is with Rwanda, anyone who uses a mobile phone or PC that is made in a certain place, or its battery, can't take any higher moral ground.
??♂️ Always remember that rant Ricky Gervais had at The Golden Globes when he said 'if ISIS started a streaming service, you (actors) would be calling your agent', & he's 100% right.

Mate, I couldn't care less. I don't live there, not my problem. Sorry. Yes, it's bad, it's the sponsor. People need to get a grip, wot do they want, Villa to accept a lower offer?
{Ed001's Note - exactly, moral vacuum. You need to get a grip, it could so easily be you and yours but no one would give a crap if it was because it would just be karma in your case quite clearly. You really are a vile person. Selfish to the extreme.}
5.) 14 Jul 2026 19:39:16
Every1 gotta go sometime. If I died id die happy and im not vile. Why should I care? Its not my fault, stuff happend there. Get over urselfs and get a grip, Jesus. Its about football, not about anything. Think eot u want about me. I couldnt give a flying f***.
{Ed001's Note - why should you care? Omg You really are a self-entitled child. Constantly throw strops when you don't get what you want but don't care about anyone else. So sad.}
6.) 14 Jul 2026 20:04:38
Maybe it's the price you have to pay with the odds of you achieving anything while the 'big 6' are stopping you? Blame the system.
UTV.
{Ed001's Note - now that I would agree with.}
7.) 14 Jul 2026 19:41:09
That's harsh Ed? Jonny has a pretty mainstream view, genocide is wrong, but selecting which genocide to care about is a bit shallow, it's going on all over, would you be kicking off if (for example) China or 'billionaires' from China invested or sponsored anything to do with your club (which they probably do) because of the treatment of the Uyghur Muslims?
UTV
{Ed001's Note - I am not kicking off about that, you clearly are unable to read that my problem is with the vile one not caring, rather than what is happening.}
8.) 14 Jul 2026 19:41:26
I'm not sure who you are venting at ed?
But everyone is entitled to their opinion and stance.
9.) 14 Jul 2026 22:28:11
Nothing going on in Rwanda that didn't happen in every country that fell under the boot of the British empire, genocide everywhere they went. but guess what this is a football page so probably best to leave the politics out of it. visit Rwanda is or has sponsored some of the biggest clubs in world football I don't see why there's any issue just because they now sponsor the villa.
you can't be sponsored by tobacco, can't have gambling but if your in the sky 6 you can cheat, buy and bribe your way to success and as city have proven with their 115 charges.
people on here talking about morals?? There's no morals in football anymore, week in week out we see and support players who do absolutely anything just to get a win be it cheating, diving for penalties, feigning injury and that's just players.
10.) 16 Jul 2026 23:37:07
Suppose everyone would be fine if Israel wanted to sponsor Villa and it'd be called the IDF stadium. Selective outrage at its finest.
11.) 17 Jul 2026 13:40:14
Not surprised to see your a United fan. Laughable.
12.) 17 Jul 2026 13:27:20
Fuser, if this page bothers you, best to go back to you own teams page, you only showed up on here to try stir the pot. visit Rwanda sponsor multiple world class teams, it's only a problem now because bitter, small minded idiots from small clubs like yourself are eating themselves with jealousy over Villa flourishing.
if you want to blame someone blame the law makers that put the restrictions in place that force clubs to deal with companies that they probably rather not be involved with in the first place.
13 Jul 2026 11:18:21
Yt gone good money 45mil.
1.) 13 Jul 2026 12:32:14
Allegedly it's £35 million, and that's chicken feed for a player who's at the peak of his powers and a current international. If he had no clause in his contract, then I don't think we would be considering any bids less than £50 million. It also seems like PSG are interested in Digne as well, so it looks like plenty are heading for the exit door.
If these rumours are true, then maybe, just maybe, Rogers stays. Not sure who is the easier player to replace though; Tielemans' ability on the ball is second to none, and I don't see too many in the PL with the same skill set playing for teams not in the top six, the one exception maybe is Wharton at Palace.
2.) 13 Jul 2026 12:40:54
And there's our big signing gone.
3.) 13 Jul 2026 13:24:18
This could be a masterstroke, obviously he'll be missed, but £35M for a 29 y/o we paid £0 for, business. ??
UTV.
4.) 13 Jul 2026 13:29:57
Came to Villa on a free. Sold for £35m.
With Digne looking like he's going back to France, does this now take pressure off re: SCR/PSR?
Not really the way we want to do business, but until we get the stadium up to 55k plus, and the commercial side is bringing in regular massive amounts of revenue, it's the only way.
5.) 13 Jul 2026 14:57:52
So, it more than balances the books, based on our purchases to date, probably gives us £20 million or so to play with, but that isn't going to get us very far. If we want to make other signings, we are going to have to shift others out the door, but hopefully squad players, not from the starting XI.
6.) 13 Jul 2026 15:06:10
The funny thing is, if he had that £35M clause from when he signed the last contract extension, then, while we were qualifying for Europe & winning a cup = ?, the rest of the football world missed out for £35M when he was worth more during that period, close to double for how important a player he is/was for us.
My glass is half full on this 1, & if, from what I've heard, Digne is off for £8M & his £150k pw gone, it's more than half full.
UTV
7.) 13 Jul 2026 18:03:44
We could have a problem very soon, and I'm normally fairly relaxed on these things.
We already needed a midfielder with Onana injured, and now there is a £15m shortfall between Tielemans and Manzambi, whilst still needing the Onana cover.
If Digne leaves for such a small amount, we need extra funds to replace him. Maatsen can't handle the full load himself (and he's rubbish).
Trying to use Pau or Mings as cover over there spells disaster.
If Martinez does leave fairly cheaply as well, then I think we are stuffed unless we sell Rogers to fund the shortfalls and his own replacement.
We already had a pretty thin squad. Selling 3-4 fringe players to cover one purchase is difficult; trying that multiple times is impossible.
8.) 13 Jul 2026 20:24:38
Rk, we are looking good financially. I think we got around 25 million for Malen, then Enzo possibly 10-15 million, Youri 36 million, Digne 8 million. Dobbin looks like he's out the door for 9 million plus add ons, that's almost 100 million in incomings. Then you have all their wages gone, plus the wages of the loan players. As it stands, we are well in the clear.
We also have Gussand to sell. I'd offer Palace Gussand and 40 million for Adam Wharton.
Remember, incomings are divided up over the length of the contract, but outgoings come off straight away. Add in the Champions League money, and it could be a very exciting season if we spend well.
I am gutted Youri is leaving though, and especially to that lot.
9.) 13 Jul 2026 21:21:18
Whack, the spread of the cost works for SCR, but not the player registration restrictions we were given for failing SCR the season before last. The restrictions also don't care about the wages either.
Assuming Manzambi is £50m and Estupinan is £20m, then we have £30m left if we don't sell more to replace Digne, and find another midfielder to allow all the new signings to be registered for Champions League.
We could find loans, but we also still need to replace the holes left by Elliott and Sancho leaving.
Assuming we effectively recoup the £35m for Guessand, we then have roughly £65m to replace 3 players plus 2 loans, 3 of those 5 players needing to be attacking players who tend to cost more.
10.) 13 Jul 2026 21:22:33
Agree, but I think we should look abroad for proven talent, Whack, cos prem prices are insane and overpriced.
11.) 14 Jul 2026 11:21:39
I think Wharton would be ideal to replace Tielemans, given Anderson sets the benchmark in terms of size of fee. We won't get him for Guessand plus £40 million. I'm not sure we would get him for Guessand plus £60 million, particularly as Palace don't want to sell, and the player seems happy where he is.
12.) 14 Jul 2026 12:53:48
Unfortunately, it seems likely that we are going to end up selling Rogers to fund 2-3 additional signings, given that most of the wide players we are being linked with seem to be north of £35 million. I can't help but wonder whether the Arsenal option of £100 million plus loans for Nwaneri and Lewis Skelly might be attractive, as it addresses 2 positions, albeit temporarily, but allows us to spend big on a Tielemans replacement.
Whatever happens next season will be a big test for Unai. He is going to have to begin the transition from an ageing, Dean Smith-heavy squad to one that's of his own making. To achieve that transition, and remain competitive with the financial restrictions we are operating under, will be an absolutely massive challenge.

Better beat Fulham now that was a disgrace it was a cup i wanted to win aswell,i thought winning breathes confidence.
28 Oct 2026 19:56:48
9 changes with a chance to get in quarter finals not happy with line up, i know league form is good, but play our best players for 45 mins with a bit of luck who knows could get to the final or win the cup, theres not many chances to win cups very annoyed tonight.
1.) 28 Oct 2026 20:56:56
Yeah not a fan of massive rotation.
2.) 28 Oct 2026 21:14:58
Thank god its not the starting 11 shocking display also we so need a top2nd class gk cos suzuki gonna be missing for a month ud go ramsdale as number 2 gk.
3.) 28 Oct 2026 21:17:32
What and risk injuries get real.
24 Oct 2026 14:57:04
Wow, I'm lost for words how does unai keep doing this, i know i doubt him some times, but Jesus he is a special manager!
1.) 24 Oct 2026 15:39:17
V J, Emery is slowly converting you into a believer, go with the flow and enjoy it HaHa UTV.
2.) 25 Oct 2026 01:07:36
He will want him sacked the next time we play badly??.
3.) 25 Oct 2026 10:36:57
No i wont every manager deserves time to turn it around i did really think we would struggle cos we lost our spine but been proven wrong again, i hope owners give unai new contract to keep from other clubs,it seems like unai is even more excited about the new villa 2.0.
21 Oct 2026 22:50:07
Good display 1 more win should make the playoffs on to city nxt.
17 Oct 2026 20:00:47
Good result good Newcastle are dirty and the ref was awfull.
14 Oct 2026 15:52:35
Thing is in last 3 seasons when we started bad the players bailed us out now, we dont have them players now and we are gonna get found out big time,champions league will be a wake up call barca,psg will have a field day with us.
14 Oct 2026 10:04:43
No1 is saying 10 games dbs just we wanna see something to be hopefull for and at the moment theres nothing defence is shocking,midfield clueless,attack ok and our gk is the only bright spark our style of play is shocking we lack pace we dont press agressive or play good attacking football and we are near the bottom of the league aswell.
In my opinion i think this will be unai last season he will go to bigger club thay allows him to spend money and not constantly sell ur best players sadly for villa we cant go any further we have reached our limit,other teams will be in same postion as villa n ncastle,the likes of brighton,brentford or everton will have there players picked off in a second,rules are only gonna get stricter now aswell thanks to city cheating will we get top4/5 again highly unlikely cant see it and in a few years aswell.
You dont rip up a top4/5 squad in 1 season and thats ruined us we have gone bckwards. iknow we needed younger players but we still could of added them to the group we had and just sell a couple of players in 1 window.
12 Oct 2026 19:36:52
I said from start of season we would do nothing we havent replaced the players that were sold,unai to stubborn wont play belis in starting 11 or mbaye,and put sjm in midfield so we dont get over run let bouba mop up like he been doing in past seasons, also id like to see jckson,madjo,mbaye uptop will unai play ithat front 3 in a 433 formation no if we dont start picking up points soon its gonna be a shocking season,unai has to sort this this out.
The villa fans i know rnt happy and have already given up on the season after all the players we sold i still think we will finish 8th to 10 at best which is shocking,yes we needed a rebuild but it should of been done slowly by getting of a couple in summer window then in winter and nxt at end of season,we have ripped the heart and soul out the team and we cant get that bck gone from a top5 squad to a top 10 squad at best the whole team looks clueless in my opinion and we cant keep on blaming psr /ffp unai transfers rnt the best aswell how many have been good aswell suzuki and manzambi do look quite good and ruggeri the rest have question marks against them.
