    I remember a couple of trips to Villa Park back in the day for FA Cup semi-finals.

    it is interesting as it could be just a bid out of curiousity, or a bit with a idea that we might be open to the idea.

    why not swap with Grealish and we give up a bit of cash.

    Don’t see any point in entertaining offers for ESR. He will be an important part of the team over the next few years.

    We could do worse than go for Ukraine’s keeper. The bloke at Sheffield United is nowhere near this guy.

    Oh yes, me too.

    FA Cup Semi-Final (83?) Arsenal 1 Man Utd 2 (watched the running battles going on outside whilst safely in the Holte End)
    Villa 2 Arsenal 6 (Tony Woodcock scored 5) The train was pelted with bottles pulling out of Aston staion (it might have been you Dad's friends, lol).
    Villa 3 Arsenal 2 (that was the day the parachutist hit the roof (lost us the game IMHO)

    Oh the memories!

    Newcastle are looking to sign Willock for cash plus a player.... what player exactly would we want from newcastle? At a push Maxim perhaps but the rest make our players look dynamic

    Do we have a better No.9 than Callum Wilson?

    Freddie Woodman makes sense - we need a backup keeper, and we ideally want that player to be homegrown, so we don’t waste one of our valuable non-HG squad places on someone who probably isn’t going to play much.

    Might be the cheapest way of doing it? Anything with ‘home-grown’ in the title usually comes at a premium (just look at the price that was mooted for Ramsdsle!) and, again, we don’t want to be spending big sums on a backup who likely won’t feature that often.
