Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Those Hemmings misses really didn't bother me. A bit like Madjo in the Super Cup, it's more encouraging that he's getting into and fashioning goal scoring chances. Composure in front of goal will come. His level is really encouraging 001
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Will go under the radar but Sunderland have some talent on their hands with Juan Riquelme Ángulo 😲 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Tell you what Jackson makes the ball stick a lot better than Ollie ever did #avfc #utv 011
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Genuinely think Martinez could be transformational for Chelsea. The one glaring area of weakness in their squad for years. Even if he's not spectacular, he will be such an improvement. 010
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 26/08/2026Brighton signing Matias Orozco is a really smart piece of business. Don't think it'll necessarily be Moises Caicedo-esque, but think he'll do well 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 20/08/2026Find it mad how many prediction podcasts have us top 6 still. Will take it as a compliment that it's now our expected level but seriously unrealistic given the squad turnover + spending of others #avfc #utv 200
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 13/08/2026Has anyone checked to see whether Madjo has given Pacho back his lunch money yet? #avfc #utv 080
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 12/08/2026More positives from that than I expected. Madjo and Hemmings the obvious but Maatsen, Kamara, McGinn all looking good. Cash probably the only negative - let's hope last season wasn't a one off #avfc #utv 010
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 12/08/2026George Hemmings is first team ready too btw. Already looks a bigger threat than Bailey or Guess and #avfc #utv 020
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Brian Madjo - kid looks the real deal. Forget the misses, the way he has 1) consistently got into good positions 2) not let his head drop and 3) physically bullied Pacho are top top indicators of a proper striker #avfc #utv 040
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Proper rebuild at Villa this summer, both on and off the field. Europa League success perhaps the right time to mark the end of a cycle - but it's a fine balance. Don't want to throw the baby out with the bathwater. And above all this rebuild will need patience. Emery deserves as much 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 23/07/2026Not hugely hopeful for Garnacho to be good at Villa. BUT the level at which he's being painted as joke figure / waste of space might at least lower expectation so much than any kind of productivity will be seen as a relative success. Or he'll just get Harvey Elliott'ed. 100
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 20/07/2026Very weird duality between Argentina in 2022 + 2026 2022: Struggled group stage, improved in KO, kept going ahead before almost throwing it away, exciting final, victorious, broadly popular 2026: Cruised through groups, struggled in KO, kept coming from behind, dull final, lose, widely castigated 010
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 12/07/2026As someone with links to both Argentina and England, nothing good can come from this game 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 07/07/2026I suppose technically why should have when it was round of 16. Face palm haha 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 06/07/2026This game doesn't feel like a World Cup quarter final at all. Almost like they are playing out a dead rubber group game. If this was football manager I'd be asking: "where's the passion, lads!" 030
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 06/07/2026Nuno Mendes is bloody brilliant. Shame to see him go off injured 020
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 05/07/2026Only seen highlights but I don't quite get the moral outrage for Paraguay v France. Mad that ref didn't dish out more bookings but nothing too scandalous. Shithousery? Yes. Robust challenges? Plenty. Poor little French princes didn't like it up them for a change + lost their heads. God forbid. 200

Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 28/05/2026Not too many surprises in the Argentina squad. Sticking with tried and tested with a sprinkling of new faces (Barco, Paz, Simeone). Shame that Buendía couldn't play his way into contention 010
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 24/05/2026Nice touch with the guard of honours n all but also an absolute nonsense to be doing it during the game #avfc #utv 110
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 24/05/2026Andrés García had been unlucky with injury but I think his time at Villa is up. Basically 4th choice now. Obvious area to upgrade in the summer+ give Cash competition 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 24/05/2026Hope we see Burrowes and Henmmings get some minutes later #avfc #utv 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 20/05/2026So proud of this group, this team, this manager, this club. Can't believe it! Absolute dream world #avfc #utfv 050
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Given our summer business and start to the season, I had no hope of Champions League. Thought any form of European qualification would be a huge achievement. Might have been frustrating and inconsistent for large swathes of the season but credit to the group for picking their moments #utv #avfc 120
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Can't string a pass together against Spurs, ropey v Burnley, then smash Liverpool. It's been that kind of season. #utv #avfc 060
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Can I shock you? I would actually like Bournemouth to beat City. Despite what I said earlier #avfc #utv 020
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Liverpool desperate to get Watkins sent off. As if they think two finishes after the whistle should constitute a red card. Then Konate flopping. Give over 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Surely that push from Van Dijk on Watkins is a pen? Shoves him just as he's taking the shot. Just because he gets the shot away it's fair game? 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 15/05/2026Not an easy finish from Watkins. Getting back to his best 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 10/05/2026The amount of points we've left on the board against clubs in the relegation is mad. 2nd weekend in a row we turned up expecting to win. Could be the difference of qualifying for the Champions League (via the league). And you've got to say, we probs don't deserve top 5 based on our 2026 form. #avfc 010
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 10/05/2026Cash has changed my opinion of him this season. But that was diabolical 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 07/05/2026Special, special night at Villa Park. Brilliant performance when it counted. Showed up for the big occasion - feels like a new milestone for this team. Istanbul here we come #avfc #utv 180
Reposted by Tom RobinsonMatt D @everysongsung.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Reasonable chance we don’t win another game this season and lose out on everything if this is the level of performance the players are willing to give. It’s been a truly wretched run in the league since 1 Jan - P16 W5 D4 L7. 39.5% of available points. 1.19ppg. Not far off relegation form. #AVFC 241
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Really really worried for the 2nd leg vs Forest. Playing like a drain, mood around VP nosediving, zero momentum, and creating nothing going forward. Against Forest, who are more than happy to sit back in a low block and counter. Just given ourselves a load more pressure. 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 03/05/2026The most gutless performance of the Emery era. Embarrassing #avfc #utv 020
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Genuinely feel like we've just turned up just to fulfil the fixture. Beaten before we even stepped on the field #avfc #utv 010
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Take Maatsen out the side and not sure Emery could have picked a side with less pace and acceleration #avfc #utv 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 03/05/2026Emery deliberately losing to Spurs, to force Forest to put out a full strength side against Chelsea, and tire them out for Thursday? Out here playing 4D chess 010

Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 30/04/2026Annoying result but contest very much in the balance. While it's a penalty by the letter of the law, not a fan of stuff like that being deemed worthy of a penalty. Punishment doesn't fit the crime. Especially when VAR going out of their way to overturn it. 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 30/04/2026Over the ball, out of control, considerable force, studs up. Not sure how Anderson got away with that. 120
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 30/04/2026What is it about Martinez pulling off world class saves Vs Forest. Wow 000
Tom Robinson @tomrobbo89.bsky.social · 21/04/2026Wonder how long Rosenior will be aging these men? How is this the same side that smashed us. Brighton schooling them 010
