Remarkable how unlucky any opponents of Mr Putin are.
The Russian opposition politician felt unwell on a flight back to Moscow and was taken to a hospital after the plane made an emergency landing, according to his spokesperson.

The Harry Kane manufacturing penalties thing.
It's real.
As a Villa fan I have seen it before.
No intention to play the ball, the only intention is to initiate contact.
Not cute. Cuntish.
🗣 "It's cute from Kane, some won't like it."
Harry Kane wins and then converts a penalty to double Tottenham's lead against Aston Villa.

I would like to highlight how Michael Oliver booked Jacob Ramsey for his first foul - yet Luke Shaw can hack the standing leg of McGinn, and Fernandes foul Targett with malice - and nothing. Bias made flesh are the PGMOL.

I feel for Sanson - he got played a coward's pass and had to reach under pressure to get it. Villa gifted Man Utd two goals - yet bossed that second half. The impact of removing Ings will I hope convince the naysayers that playing both forwards is counterproductive. utv

Samatta. Seeing all sorts of opinions but for me he showed the one quality that is hard to coach - he put himself in the right areas repeatedly - but his timing was off. Timing comes with practice. The knack of being in the right place at the right time is a gift.

The Leon Bailey news is remarkable. He isn't just a punt. His performance data in the Bundesliga puts him ahead of the likes of Kingsley Coman and Marcel Sabitzer. He is the real deal.

Danny Ings is the antithesis of Tammy Abraham. A ruthless finisher of chances and half chances. As Villa fans can attest - even from the narrowest angle he can pot it in the side pocket. A buy for now rather than tomorrow.

Plays every minute he can for Villa but GS said needs to prove himself. Spends most of his time on the bench at Man City but GS says that now means he is 'more suited'. Anyone would think he was a right back the way GS is now speaking. 29% win rate as a league manager.

Aston Villa have also built three new teams in that time - won promotion - sustained PL status - and improved PL position. All from a base that saw them near the bottom of the Championship when the current manager was appointed. Also, that spend total buys three Lukaku's.

What a transformation appointing a quality manager rather than a bloated hype balloon has had on this Villa team. Exactly the same players yet the team looks unrecognisable. Luiz and McGinn are no good some folk were telling me not long ago. Olsen's feet impressed me too 👍

Gareth's only ever trophy as a manager came in the U21 Toulon Tournament. Grealish was integral to that success scoring 2 goals in his four games. He never got on for the final. Something happened there and Southgate has never forgotten it.

It is only my personal view, but for me the rebuilding of the club in a coherent fashion takes precedence over maintaining PL status at all costs. Sacking managers before they have a chance to actually build something is small time, and is why Pulis and co exist. Myopic.

Gareth Southgate. A colour by numbers man. Against a deep block you need players who can carry the ball and drag players about. So he takes off Grealish when Kane and Sterling and Mount are anonymous. The man is a plank and his team play like stiff robots.

Pepe Reina showed a confidence in touch and distribution that puts half of our midfield to shame. He also gave repeated loud bollockings to Mings and co - which in my opinion can only do us good. I was dubious but now I am sold. He will make a difference.

SG on BT Sport - says 'Jurgen has to get in among the players at halftime to get a reaction'.
It exemplifies his mindset - nothing about shape or tactics, or space, all about personality and character. It is why he will never make an elite level coach.
Player mindset.

That Villa 352 is woeful - but folk saying Buendia isn't any good - or that Mings needs dropping - or Watkins is done - are reactionary. Villa just need to play 433 with the right players in the right positions and they can improve on last year's finish.

What a difference having a GK who you feel secure with makes. Solid with his hands, solid with his feet, solid with his decision making, and brave. Emi Martinez will turn out to be a monstrous signing by Villa.

A tight game with a hint of fortune in the win, but the difference in these players now they are being coached by a manager who understands shape and tactics is remarkable. Another six weeks of coaching and the 2nd half of the season could be 🔥

Some are denigrating the quality of players because they play for Genk. Not only did Benteke come to Villa from them, they also provided the world with Origi, Praet, De Bruyne, Ndidi, Koulibaly, and Courtois. Small time exists mainly within small minds.

The best things about Smith coming to Villa, and now Gerrard, is that both men are totally committed to producing good young football players - more importantly, given current news - is that both are equally committed to producing great human beings. Be the best version of you.

The Villa twitter anger at ST price rises is understandable, but I think this is only the start myself. The owners are serious about breaking the ESL 6 monopoly - and that I am afraid will take lots of money - and we can't really have it both ways can we ...? 🤔

The difference Emi Buendia has made is clear. It was clear at West Ham too. His aggression and vision for a through ball makes Watkins look a player again. That our coach doesn't see it is concerning.

What I take from that is just how thin our squad is. Bossed the 1st half. Sat back the 2nd. Odd to see a Villa team produce a George Graham performance.

Big summer ahead - some fan favs to go I feel.

Great game. Villa showing they can compete, but in truth still a notch short. No one can argue Arsenal didn't earn that bit of fortune for the winner. If Villa had a Saka instead of a Bailey, they would be the ones taking all the points here in my view. Fourth forgivable.

Fair play to Jack Grealish, broke my heart but achieved his dream. Which in a short career, is the most important thing. 🙏

It is remarkable what Emery is getting out of this thin squad of players. Leicester have players just as good, if not better, but the Emery effect ground them down into dust. Lots of work to do this summer mind. A top right back and a wing exchange are priorities. utv

257
Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet. Villa have improved over the side that barely avoided relegation last season, but that improvement has mainly come in defence. As an offensive force, without Jack, they have too many of championship quality. This needs changing.
28
15
252
Error aside, the price you pay for playing both Watkins and Ings in the same 11 is it makes you look like you are playing with 10 men. Not only would I sub on little Phil for Ings - I would sub on Chuk for Ings. Win midfield and we win the game. Same as Monday.

Aye, it was an odd selection, and yes, the referee was bizarre, and true Villa had terrible luck, but none of that matters because we aren't good enough, and Champion's League will be short and painful without major change.

This is why I regard him as the best manager ever to coach our club Aston Villa - a career littered with success and some failure - but a career glittering with prizes, at so many different clubs, under so many different circumstances, is remarkable.

People blaming Smith simply don't see the big picture. Villa looked good when they weren't pressed. Hodgson got Palace to press higher and Villa crumbled because they had no Mings or Cash, and because they struggle to hold the ball under pressure. This second factor massive.

What Gerrard has bought is mindset. A deeper, harder running, determination not to concede. He has also brought a slice of luck - which is invaluable in life. Mings with his right foot first time? 😂 Still that win should quieten the Watkins and Mings doubters for a while. 👍

That game had everything you would want to see from a football team. Driving positive creativity then measured resilient defending. The players look like a weight has been lifted, because it has. I will say it again, these players are good enough if played in the right shape.
