Saw a thing asking prem managers if they could bring back one player from the premier league past to play for them, who would they choose?

Most said Thierry Henry but Emery said “David Silva”. Obviously knows his football.

As a Villa manager ,I was hoping he would have gone for Peter Withe ,or maybe even Gary Shaw.
 
Don't mind Villa as a club so much and have a couple of mates who are Villa, but the majority of their fickle fans can absolutely do one. Horrible is the nicest work I can use to describe them.
 
A truly horrible set of fans mostly who try and fail to prove how hard they are with their mouthing off and worse. Massive chips on their shoulders about Birmingham City. As a result too many of them try it on with families and indeed anyone, regardless of whether they want to see action or not. Pathetic, and cowardly. No club has as many fickle fans as this lot.

Their critics, however, are far less kind.

Embarrassing cocks at Wembley in 2020...cuntish behaviour
 
It's only a recent thing for me. Up until they came back up in 2019, I never really had a problem with Villa or their fans. St Andrews was always a far naughtier place to visit. Had many a great away day at Villa Park with barely a hint of trouble and you could always drink in a lot of the pubs round there without getting much hassle. Then something changed - it seemed that while relegation in 2016 galvanised their fanbase in terms of increasing their attendances (don't forget that they only got around 25,000 for a PL game against Saints back in 2014), it also turned many of them into massive dickheads, culminating in that utterly disgusting incident at Wembley in 2020 when a 50-odd year old Villa fan punched a 9 year old City fan. All of a sudden they were putting out spurious claims that they were the best, loudest, and most loyal fanbase around which flew in the face of all the shite attendances and shite atmospheres they'd gotten in the previous 3 or 4 decades. Towards the end of the 2004/05 season, we'd seen an upturn in results following Keegan's departure and found ourselves in with a great chance of getting into Europe. Villa also had a chance of Europe as well and we played them at their place in the penultimate game of the season. Despite it being a genuine 6-pointer, Villa fans were so apathetic about the game that we ended up getting an additional allocation of tickets on top of the usual 3000 which just doesn't happen in PL games in the modern era. From memory, I think we ended up with over 5000 tickets that day.
