A link finally

Most obvious one possible but at this stage desperation has set in.

Looked fairly bright yesterday

But it's years since he's done anything of note.

Is he still physically capable of carrying Daniel Farke :duno:
Villa have turned down any offers we made for Buendia.

Owners were straight on the phone to the Daily Mail denying we made a bid . . . .

Worrying that this late in the day, there isn't a sniff of anyone creative coming. Where are the goals coming from? Where is that player who can put their foot on the ball and play that killer pass? Without some creativity, I think it's going to be a very very long season. I'm usually very positive, but we don't look like scoring goals, do we?

The day's not over yet, Leon, but it's worrying that we appear to be either inactive or scrambling. Build from the back is all well and good, and I think we have done some good work in that respect. But without some magic up top, I think we are really going to struggle to get the goals we need to stay up. I hope I'm wrong, obviously, but if we don't get anyone in, where is the creativity coming from?

Wilson is an 8 isn't he? Would join Stach, Tanaka, Longstaff competing for that position as we go the 2 8's route

Bad mistake around the 75th minute, and it's those he's prone too and frequently. Dan James bailed him out.

I would prefer him to Meslier as our back up keeper,I think he is used to being around Roden and amps makes a massive difference to his confidence when they are cb imo.

Meslier type error in a couple of games last season, a pre season game for us, the goal v SW and now Wales.... 5/6 bad errors in 7/8 games, he's been very lucky. He lacks Mes's talent imo and by a distance. Good number 3.
