We’re in the Championship, Villa finished 7th in the premier league 

 

Its not a sideways move whatever else you think of it

We got Albrighton for free from them and won the EPL...... we're just returning the favor 

He has done more for LCFC than tubby will do for Villa

Genuinely think he's peaked. Played since he was 16. Everyone remember Rooney was slow at 30 because he started early. 

 

The best game he's had for us this/last season was the Leeds home. In a sort of sitting quarterback role. He'll do well for villa especially in conference league playing that role

 

Wish him the best. I have never reacted the way I did to THAT goal

Spot on... some fans still don't realize how bad we've fallen and think we'll stroll back being a top Premier League

Drinkwater all over again.

Been saying for a while his legs have gone, and he'd be done at the top level by 28. Over the past year I've been thinking 28 was optimistic.

It's a sideways move from where we were when he started running his contract down. Dude wasted two years phoning it in to get no benefit from if he'd tried over those 2 years

He made this decision after we finished 5th and won the fa cup….so yeah it’s a downgrade from what he was expecting then

Thats not the point. For 2 seasons he has been running his contract down and for 2 seasons many fans have been questioning his attitude, his fitness, his commitment and his desire to succeed.  He was a huge part of out poor performances last season, and at a time we needed our assets to be invested in the club he was found seriously wanting. The club even made this journeyman captain, in the hope it might spur some leadership. It didn't. He took the pi55 out of all of us last year.

 

He did this because he thought he deserved more.  2 seasons ago we were FA cup holders and Charity Shield holders, and were in the Europa league.  Its a downgrade for Youri from the point he started playing silly buggers, and not the Champions league move he craved. Good, he deserves it. 

 

Clearly, the top clubs took note of his attitude, and its come back to bite him.

Agree with all this

 

But it wasn’t the player that made himself captain and refused to sell him/ freeze him out

probably not the title but with Emery can see them winning a cup competition 

Possibly but with Man City, an improving Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal, a Chelsea that despite the circus they were last season, have some really top players, and will be up there next season, even the Cups are going tobbe tough for them to win. Ironically their best chance to win a trophy will be the Conference league, which I imagine they will be favourites to win, and winning that will also probably be their best chance of making the Europe league too  and of course Emery certainly knows how to win cups in Europe.

After all reports of Arsenal, Roma, Liverpool, Juve etc etc.. he ends up at Villa. It proves there never has been a market for him. Good luck to him anyhow.

If he was so happy in the midlands, and loved the club, why didn’t he sign an extension last year, or 2 years ago…

 

At least we could’ve got a fee for him then.

 

 

To run his contract down, only to join the Villa is sickening 🤮

annoyingly obvious that the clubs doing well recently make their moves quickly. Brighton and villa shining examples of having a vision and moving quickly. didn’t even take them all that long to get emery. 
 

Clubs have no excuse for not knowing exactly what they want to do and can do at the start of a window. Just sums up our sorry state of affairs that we appear to have barely considered what managers to short list 😂

The minutes he’s played over the last four and a half years are absolutely astounding. I’ve seen a graph showing he’s played by far the most of any player.

It's not a sideways move now, but he wasn't signing a contract with us 2 years ago when we had just finished 5th and won the FA Cup, because he wanted to be playing champions league football. So by signing for Villa, he's not gone further forward in his career, to where he was with us 2 years ago. So from 2 years ago, its a sideways move at best

I imagine he’s done himself out of a few million too by not extending and improving his contract with us two years ago.
