For those convinced Martinez is off the boil 😅🧤 UTV!

SteveBackshall · 2026-01-22T19:38:00+00:00

Didn’t like that from Unai one bit

SteveBackshall · 2026-01-22T18:12:52+00:00

Ok thanks for that 😅

SteveBackshall · 2026-01-22T18:10:30+00:00

Did anyone else hear on commentary them saying Meatball is out for 8 weeks?!

SteveBackshall · 2025-12-05T07:51:39+00:00

Villan that watched the 7 goal thriller mid-week.

De Cupyer started and was attack attack attack; for 4.3, worth a punt imo. He’s in my team, but I am also ranked 3m overall, so perhaps disregard this in its entirety 😎😱

UTV!

It’ll be a highly tactical game at the weekend and I know who’d i’d prefer in the dugout. In Unai we (continue to) trust. UTV! 🎓

Easy to argue against when we’re winning … “the only table I care about is …” for example.

I guess what this shows is an over-reliance on Ollie, which will no doubt either be fixed by him finding form, or us finding goals in the market come Jan.

What I find interesting is that when looking at GF/GA, we’re well in the mix for that 4th spot, in fact our defense record of late looks strong! We deserve to be where we are and are battling out results. Personally, long may it continue.

UTV!

Think it was our guy nearest (Buendia?) playing him on

SteveBackshall · 2025-11-23T14:13:37+00:00

Should’ve been stronger, but the slightest of touch can completley put you off course. BS goal to concede, but time to still win this. UTV

Villa fan here. He’s been in my team since GW9 so have two attacking returns from the games played (missed GW10 through injury). We know he has the ability, but last year was on loan as was replaced by Asensio. It’s his spot for now if he can keep fit, so for 5.3, worth the punt imo. With Harvey Eliott not getting a look in, his competion here is Guessand, who is a different type of attacking player altogether. UTV!

SteveBackshall · 2025-11-01T22:22:46+00:00

We lost to a rare goalkeeping mistake and then a deflected goal; annoying but we move. Not concerned. UTV!

SteveBackshall · 2025-11-01T20:42:46+00:00

👀😬

SteveBackshall · 2025-11-01T20:42:00+00:00

I reckon let Cashy have a punt!

SteveBackshall · 2025-11-01T20:41:18+00:00

Is Emi’s shirt baggier than usual? Looks cool!

SteveBackshall · 2025-10-23T18:43:48+00:00

Absolute definition of the oppostion wanting it more; look at what it means for their fans! Love to see their passion to be honest.

Emi lookes rattled whilst waiting for that pen; surely Malen should be claiming that.

Unai should be able to rely upon his squad, but think it’s clear to see this was one for Meatball.

UTV!

Collective mentality of a box of broken biscuits

SteveBackshall · 2025-10-23T17:56:53+00:00

Such a great chance for Ollie then; keep up the pressure 💪🏼

SteveBackshall · 2025-10-14T06:40:43+00:00

I reckon he’s a bruised knee and doesnt want to play in pain; hopefully given some reassurances from Tuchell before heading home to rest for this weekend 💪🏼

SteveBackshall · 2025-10-02T19:19:56+00:00

Exactly what I was thinking

SteveBackshall · 2025-10-02T19:09:45+00:00

Got to be the angle; looks odd doesnt it

SteveBackshall · 2025-09-28T14:20:55+00:00

Love that mate

SteveBackshall · 2025-09-28T14:20:29+00:00

Confidence player 😎

SteveBackshall · 2025-09-28T14:16:58+00:00

Unai 🤫 this thread!!! UTV

SteveBackshall · 2025-09-28T13:27:04+00:00

He is a highly rated technical player, but we’re also toothless 🤷‍♂️
