Couple of air shots, cry in the corner, pray, put my helmet on, cry a bit more, walk out

[Rothesay County Championship @CountyChamp]

What routine do you follow before you go out to bat?

@Daily_user9 @GeorgeDobell1 11 wickets at 25 in Australia is poor?

Keep moving the goalposts then if it makes you happy

[Flatbat @Flatbat96]

@DanW400 @GeorgeDobell1 He's famously played in both of those countries as well as the super flat pitches of Pakistan in 2022, but sure...

[Flatbat @Flatbat96]

@Daily_user9 @GeorgeDobell1 Best bowler on show in Pakistan in 2022 on the fattest pitches in history, but sure

[Flatbat @Flatbat96]

Utterly soulless... enjoy your money

@CookeeCharlie I don't know if the batsmen technically would have been better, but I certainly think their attitude has looked better without Baz's nonsense. Ollie Rob on those pitches in Australia would be incredible

[EBL @EBL2017]

Haven't seen one person note the obvious on Aston Villa.

Yes, they have lost a lot.

But they have also brought in Manzambi, Gomes, Suzuki, Ruggeri, Garnacho, Wan-Bissaka, Goretzka, and now Mbaye.

Combine that with the emergence of Hemmings + Madjo and keeping Emery?

Europe ✅

[EBL @EBL2017]

Aston Villa in crisis?

I don't see it, even after the 4-0 defeat to Brighton and the departure of over half of their XI (almost all of which are key players).

They have replaced aging players with players with top potential + players entering their prime whilst breaking even or potentially even making profit in the market.

They have also recruited and maintained enough good people, leaders, and experienced players to sustain the cultural standards at the club.

Martinez 33, Susuki 24.
Digne 33, Ruggeri 24.
Konsa 28, Cisse 21 (although their level has dropped at centre half).
Tielemans 29, Gomes 25.
Watkins 30, Jackson 25.

Also added Garnacho, Manzambi, and Mbaye on top of their youth prospects in Madjo and Hemmings.

Forget the media narrative. The alternative was keeping aging stars, not commanding big fee's for them as they age, and not being able to replace them because money wasn't brought into the club!

It's an excellent transfer window and I firmly believe that Villa will remain competitive in Europe and challenge for Europe domestically once again, even if it might take their season a little while to get going because the change has been so drastic.

These are exciting times for Aston Villa, especially after retaining Unai Emery despite the turnover in the squad.

Looking forward to watching them next season ✌️

WHAT

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Aston Villa reach agreement in principle to sign Ibrahim Mbaye from Paris Saint-Germain. #AVFC move for 18yo #PSG winger in process of being finalised: €55m. Nasser Al-Khelaifi & Nassef Sawiris relationship key to closing deal @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/0z6xxuHoko

This is why the people who said Pakistan had the better day yesterday were wrong. They simply cannot bat

[Sky Sports Cricket @SkyCricket]

Pakistan in all sorts of trouble! 😬

Ollie Robinson gets his third wicket to leave the visitors 105-7 ❌

[Flatbat @Flatbat96]

Fine, move on. Was always a weird signing anyway and makes way more sense to spend our money on a CB

🚨 Galatasaray are closing in on Rafa Leão deal after getting initial green light from the player. @FabrizioRomano #avfc

[Flatbat @Flatbat96]

@TotalVilla_ I think he is good. Remember what he did against us - he's clearly better than that Burnley team would suggest

[Flatbat @Flatbat96]

@nickcricket I don't think so. Mainly because the Pakistan tail are all number 11s

Genuine question, who wants this? Where has the demand for a Jamie Vardy Bundesliga show come from?

[The Athletic | Football @TheAthleticFC]

Former England and Leicester City forward Jamie Vardy has become a Bundesliga rights holder.

Vardy’s YouTube channel, “Jamie Vardy’s Having a Party”, will broadcast seven Bundesliga games live this season.
