🚨 Zlatan Ibrahimović on Lionel Messi not winning the World Cup Golden Ball:

🗣️: “What else did Messi have to do to win it? I genuinely don’t understand the criteria anymore. If you look back at 2018, Luka Modrić won the Golden Ball without winning the World Cup. So what changed now?

“Messi carried Argentina throughout the tournament, delivered when it mattered most, and was once again the player everyone feared. If that wasn’t enough, then tell me what is.

“It feels like the standards are always different when it comes to Messi. Every other player gets judged one way, but with him, people suddenly move the goalposts. It’s always against Messi.

“I’m happy for Rodri, but from a football perspective, I don’t think anyone had a stronger case than Messi.”

Emiliano Martinez has made 𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐄 saves for Argentina against Spain, the most of any goalkeeper in a World Cup final in history❗️

Considering you sat across the table from me with Rogers in your top 10 prem players with no Gibbs-White, yeah 😂

[Aston Villa Statto @AVFCStatto]

Morgan Rogers response was “Arsenal.”🤣

I’m so glad the most cringe ITK of all time is getting stick. He had them all believing they were having a dynasty summer.

[Adom @OcranKA]

“HoA” since the season ended…

[villareport @villareport]

🚨 NEW: Hull City are in talks to sign Leon Bailey — Villa prefer a permanent move, which is being considered. Trabzonspor & Celta Vigo have also registered interest. @J_Tanswell #avfc

Ezri on the scoresheet at the #FIFAWorldCup 😍

[Aston Villa @AVFCOfficial]

Ezri Konsa and Morgan Rogers start for England tonight, with Ollie Watkins named as a substitute 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[Dan Rolinson @DanRolinson]

Still want to record this?

[Tom Collomosse @TomCollomosse]

Wouldn’t be surprised if Arsenal now made a proper move for Bradley Barcola. Imagine the low-balling for Ezri Konsa did not endear them to Villa, either. Owners tend to dislike it when they think rivals are taking the mick

This geeza talks so much BS 😂😂😂 #avfc

[Ty Bracey @TyBracey]

Lets not play this down…

Arsenal try the usual dirty tactics of unsettling a player, spread the news to Fabrizio and co you’re “preparing a bid” and hope you get him at a discounted rate when he would try to force a move.

Only for a team with no champions league football take him from under your feet because they get their business done.

I couldn’t be happier he isn’t going to Arsenal.

[Villa Views @VillaViews_]

Sad to lose Rogers, Tielemans etc. but £150m in the bank from an £8m spend is pretty good business - and at least they scored goals to win us a trophy before going. So often all of this happens when you are on the brink of success rather than after. Best wishes to both. #avfc
