Sigh, piss off. Chatting as though they haven’t done more damage to us with their dirty money than any other Sky 6 team - taking Milner pushed MON out the door and ushered in our worst era in a generation and taking Grealish got Smith the sack. The gumption of these desperate idiots. #AVFC

Good game, some good performances. Garnacho was really decent overall. Great to see Pau and Madjo back. #AVFC

Quite a fun game. Nacho playing better than he has in other games, but he needs to keep that attitude in check (couple of times Unai has had to pick him up when he’s not getting back onside or tracking back) #AVFC

Cannot fathom how there's still another 8 days and two more international games that I don't care about before we play our next league game. The fact that I'm quite excited about spending my Friday evening watching our reserves run a fitness exercise is pretty bleak. #AVFC

Our total combined revenue between 09/10 - 17/18 was £806m. We never had a chance of competing in the face of this. #AVFC

Torn on the City thing. On one hand, they’re a version of #AVFC if our owners had made different decisions to circumvent the spending rules we’ve been criticising for most of the last 10 years. I can see why they did what they did and in many ways they’re demonstrating the problems in the rules.

Just realised that if the punishment is to null-and void all of City’s results during the period when they were doing a bit of fraud, we’ll lose another point from our 15/16 total, which will take us down to 16pts. So that’s fun. #AVFC

I’m sure Unai was left kicking himself due to Harvey’s 20 minute cameo for the second worst team in La Liga in a game that they lost after he came on. Also, for a site called Aston Villa News it sure does like to spell ‘Villans’ wrong. #AVFC www.astonvillanews.co.uk/match/harvey...

Harvey Elliott puts Unai Emery in awkward position as Aston Villa boss watches Valencia

Emi is not wrong about Ruggeri (in that second half particularly). He did well after we adjusted the tactics a little. Arguably our lowest profile signing of the summer, but after Maatsen’s injury and watching Digne’s complete career collapse at PSG, he might be one of our smartest purchases #AVFC

Great result despite the ref’s best efforts. Super second half. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

Better in the last 20. Spurs seemed to get tired out by bullying us so much for 25 minutes. Need to sort ourselves out properly second half. Fullbacks, Kamara (even with the assist), Mcginn and Buendia all very poor so far. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

Why do we look so slow, low energy, low effort and weak? Looks like a Spurs training game where the 1st team are playing the u16s #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 18/09/2026

I actually don't mind not having any England players in the squad because that means a) none of our players will get their heads turned and b) I don't have to watch England play. Win win. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

Solid second half. Couple of good performances and Manzambi looking sharper. Cov were absolutely abysmal and I know it was just a cup game but all we’ve heard for nearly 30 years is about this rivalry they invented and they couldn’t sell out? Pathetic. #AVFC

160

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

No idea how we’re winning but I’ll take it. Shocking defensively again, particularly the CDMs, but some good chances created here and there and I like Mbaye very much. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

Don’t buy it this time - we just completely shut down for 40 of the 45 minutes. Nothing to do with Glasner’s tactics. Any team with any manager in any top league in Europe would’ve beaten us in that second half. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

Not a problem now. He’s either in for Pau or in for Maatsen #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

We deserved nothing from this game and that’s what we got. I won’t hear anything about going down to 10 men. We were already cooked. This performance worries me more than any of the other crap performances this season so far. Beyond bad - every player a 2/10 this half. #AVFC

210

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

So far this is one of the most piss poor second halves I’ve ever seen from Villa in my entire life. What the hell is going on? #AVFC

000

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

Decent for a bit, ragged defensively at times and really static on occasion. Couple of good individual performances though. Need two LCBs next summer - Pau’s constant injuries are really problematic. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

This lad is in better shape in terms of physicality, mentality and maturity than Rogers, JJ and Jack were at this age. If he gets his end product sorted out we‘ll be selling him to Chelsea for £160m in just a couple of years. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

No pressure, lads, but if we don’t win today it’ll be our 2nd worst start to the league season of the premier league era (behind 97/98) #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Outstanding “bitter ex” sniping from Ginny here. Absolutely top drawer missive fired at Jack, Emi, Ollie, Morgs and Ezri. Perfect, no notes. Engrave this on his inevitable statue. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

5 years ago Smith was 8 weeks from the sack and we were about to usher in a year of Gerrard ball. The idea that within 5 years Mcginn is now speaking as a seasoned European pro and the top European goalscorer in our history is really is mind blowing. #AVFC

Pretty sure Jackson equalled Watkins’ champions league goalscoring record tonight. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

Piss poor defensively at times but another improvement in overall performance. Thought Jackson was excellent. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 08/09/2026

Think Alysson a little unlucky not to get a start (in over Buendia, McGinn to the middle) but otherwise as expected (I suspected AWB might start). We just need to make the chances count. No more missed open goals tonight. (I still have a bad feeling though) #AVFC

I’m so glad the season doesn’t start until October this year or all of these many, many injuries would be really irritating. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

Poor second half and some piss poor individual performances but we didn’t lose and we did miss two open goals. This start was an absolute certainty. It’s not going to get much better for a few months. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

Thought we were ok, generally. Still look lacking in guile up front but for the most part it was decent and we could/should have scored. #AVFC

Matt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 05/09/2026

Feel for Lucas Digne. What a poor move that’s looking like. Called out as being unfit and unready by the manager and now dropped from the squad even though their only other left back is suspended. #AVFC www.thesun.co.uk/sport/402714...

Worthy of note that after this summer NSWE have spent more than £1bn on new players in the last 8 years. Thats 69 permanent transfers, 26 loans. (Before any Sky 6 clubs get excited about the prospect of a PSR gotcha, they’ve also recouped about £800m in that time). #AVFC

Outside of the loan obligations (Malen, Enzo), all #AVFC transfer business was done in 49 days. That’s more than 25 out (including the u21s out on loan) and 10 new 1st team players in. Thats a player moving roughly every 30 hours for 7 straight weeks. And yet Bailey is somehow still here.

This is a great point - Watkins (31 in December) Martinez (34 tomorrow) Konsa (29 next month) Digne (33) Youri (30 next May) £150m for 5 players in the latter stages of their careers cannot be sniffed at. #AVFC

Crazy - he won’t be in the uefa squad, and after we inevitably lose in R3 (our annual tradition) of the League Cup to Cov he probably won’t play a second more until he leaves. #AVFC

Better than last week, still really ragged but that’s to be expected. Onwards. #AVFC

Occurs to me that #AVFC have left a lot of money on the table this summer by not filming a behind the scenes documentary for one of the streamers - more has happened at this club since the World Cup than has happened at most clubs in the last 10 years. Every single day has been ridiculous.
