You’d have thought he’d have had a haircut and “freshened” himself up a bit if he’s ACTUALLY looking for a “fresh start!”
I’m wondering, given Villa’s fast break mentality, he’s going to be fit for more than a few sub appearances for the next few weeks. Hard to believe he could be anywhere near match fit!
Looks like he's had a couple of nights on the tiles.

Could have plugged that gaping hole in the roof at the Swamp.
The rags have got 6 home games & 8 away games left to play;-
The home games - Ipswich, Arsenal, City, Wolves, WHU & Villa (last day)
The away games are - Spurs, Everton, Leicester, Forest, Newcastle, Bournemouth, Brentford & Chelsea
Those away games look pretty tricky even the Leicester one if both teams are fighting for survival.
In the home games to Arsenal, us (if we get our act together) and Villa they'll be lucky to get 4 points and two of the other home games Wolves & WHU are teams that seem to be beating them at OT at the moment, in fact you wouldn't rule out Ipswich getting a point.
Look, we know they're not getting relegated but it's not beyond the imagination, one can only hope.

So why haven't any journalists picked up on this?
This is "massive" news and only points to more financial ruin for them.
If this was City, they would be all over it.
Saw this on BBC Gossip:
Industry insiders believe it could be 2032 before Old Trafford is fully rebuilt or redeveloped
That will mean a daily article on BBC from Simon Stone on how every single seat put in is a life long Rag fan and articles from concrete to construction to porto cabins

If what Reeves has said and the stadium is being paid for by the rags is correct it'll be much longer than that, a bit of advance sponsorship won't cut it when they'll need £xx billion while the football side slowly falls further and further away from any success.
The only way out looks to be an Arab sale, the scruffy one would probably sell tomorrow if he'd gain a few bob on his outlay.....thank fuck for UMS they'll be going nowhere and certainly won't be chucking money at a new swamp either.

Manchester United Update
Fans turn anger towards Casemiro.
A Sky Sports source understands that there is a lot of anger within supporters at TWGC as Casemiro continues to struggle with his fitness and issues around his weight.
Sir Jim Ratcliife has moved to quell the fears of fans and wholeheartedly support Casemiro.
“He has enough on his plate at this present time,” said Jim.

Are we seeing the start of a real decline for them
I know they’ve been a laughing stock for over a decade but even in that time they’ve won a few trophies , which is scant reward for the money they’ve spent
They are now in the territory of having to sell before they can buy , with limited saleable assets to fund any new purchases
They need a massive rebuild if they are throwing their lot behind the latest manager.
But with every season they are out of Europe, means less revenue to put towards this rebuild
They could be trapped in lower mid table for the foreseeable
In any other era they would have already been relegated but their enormous spending has insulated them from this fate
Just look at the players they are seriously linked with now, loans for other teams flops, punts on young players that have been performing for small clubs. It’s only two years ago they were linked with signing Harry Kane
I think next season could be a car crash , can’t wait

A sale to the Arabs you say.
Surely that would involve 'dirty oil money'?

We saw when the black & White piccy guy was in the frame, it's only dirty oil money until it could benefit them and even then it'd be our fault as 'they'd have no choice because of our actions' © rag in the pub when the black & White piccy guy was supposedly looking into buying them.
For whatever reason, some of my most vivid memories of going to Maine Road are linked to the fucking PA playing Stars and it annoys the shit out of me, but the club should absolutely play money's to tight to mention at the next darby.

There has always been something a bit sinister and not quite right with how the press totally ignore anything negative about the club, without question they curry favour with departments of media companies, no doubt some sort of financial gain. You only have to examine Simon Stones as an example, its biased beyond belief-and its always been there even before the takeover. The whole reporting of both Manchester clubs from the BBC sport department is an absolute disgrace. Then you have Gary Neville , Wio et all constantly sticking the boot in. Then you have Keane, Scholes doing regular fan podcasts etc.
You can bet your bottom dollar there will never be any ex City player who gets those gigs in the future, you know, the team of the last decade , players who have smashed every record.
Ill wager that most, if not all of the football sport editors at the BBC are united fans.
More like the Ratners of jewellery
It's unbelievable how they still attract over 70k to the circus which in all honesty we couldn't do.
And not many leave early…
