🧵 #AVFC Summer Recruitment 🧵

Clearly whether Aston Villa qualify for the Champions League is going to be decisive for our policy this summer.

That said, there are some more general challenges, regardless of what competition we get into, namely:

➡️ Reduce the squad age
➡️ Reduce the wage bill

Not a great performance but who cares. Was all about the result and got the job done.

Not many standouts but thought Bogarde deserves real praise. Kept Mitoma pretty quiet. Barkley made a big difference coming on + hopefully a confidence boost for Bailey too

Promising first 10mins but fouling broke up our rhythm and we got drawn into a scrap rather than a football match. Attack really disjointed, bar Sancho-Rogers link up. Missing our two best progressive passers.
February 11, 2026 at 8:22 PM
Yep, van Hecke definitely a shithouse
Credit where credits due, thought Baleba was unreal for them

Also, does van Hecke have a reputation for being a shithouse? Or was that a one off? #avfc #bhafc

That disallowed goal lays bare yet another fatal flaw of VAR.

If it had stood, Brentford would have raged (and you'd have sympathy for them). If it's disallowed, we will rage (for lack of definite proof)

I mean, it looks like it's out of play but can they definitively say that ALL (not the majority) of the ball crosses the line? #utv

Exact scenario where Tielemans absence is going to felt so badly. I've seen how this goes... 🙇🏻‍♂️
Worst possible scenario. A goal down and they can just sit in front of goal #AVFC

Only took a few months. Looks like he's off to Cercle Brugge. Ideal first landing spot 👏🏻👏🏻
Atlético Nacional's young centre back Royer Caicedo has all the attributes to make the jump to a Top 5 league. Remember the name. Will be surprised if he's not in Europe by this time next year.

Might be "one of those things" in football / just bad luck, but can't help feeling the 'let it flow' directive might have something to do with lumps like Palhinha and Joelinton being allowed to hobble our best midfielders. Or maybe I'm just bitter/biased #avfc #utv

Konsa's reaction to Emi Martinez going down there 😂😂

Absolutely love this Emi Buendía revival #utv

Football is back up and running in Argentina as the Torneo Apertura got underway last night.

Going to try and do my best to chart some of the best emerging prospects

First up: Giovanni Baroni (Talleres)
Assist on his debut for the Argentina U17 international. Very interesting prospect

Pretty wild game, so end-to-end at times. Nervier than it should have been but lots of positives:
✅ Bizot superb
✅ Mings back and imperious alongside Lindelof
✅ Sancho at it
✅ Minutes in the legs for Onana
✅ No more injuries
✅ Duran draws a blank
✅ Top 8 secured with a game in hand

Hopefully just 'one of those days', but lack of options off the bench now makes me think we might be in a pretty grim run. Frustrating
January 18, 2026 at 6:27 PM
Is it gonna be one of those days that Rogers can't hit a barn door - until he does? #avfc #utv

Think we got lucky here but surely the reasoning behind disallowing was the shove on Guessand by O'Brien?
Goalless between Aston Villa and Everton at half-time.

Jake O'Brien thought he had put Everton in front but his joy was cut short by the linesman's flag.

Harrison Armstrong was in an offside position when the ball was played and was deemed to have been interfering.

The right call?
January 18, 2026 at 5:24 PM
Weird performance. Perhaps lucky to still be level but did create more than enough chances to be ahead ourselves. McGinn injury seemed to disrupt the rhythm
January 18, 2026 at 5:22 PM
Hope the Bouba injury news/rumours are pure smoke and mirrors to put off anyone trying to sign him in the window 😅 Would be a massive miss if he is out for a sustained period of time
January 16, 2026 at 5:40 PM
Really don't understand why we'd want to let Malen go - ok he isn't an out-and-out striker but he gives us something different.

Surely want to be building depth, not just gambling on someone who might be may or may not be a better Watkins deputy 🤔 #avfc

🇦🇷 6 Prospects for 2026 🇦🇷

Looking ahead to another year of Argentinian football, here are a handful of talents that could make an impact

Not necessarily the *best* but players I think could establish themselves in the Primera or set for a breakthrough year
January 11, 2026 at 2:15 PM
Really hope that wasn't a pyrrhic victory and Bouba is alright. One of the few irreplaceable players in the squad #avfc #utv
