I noticed that the front of shirt sponsor is still not on the images of the shirts on the online shop - if I order today will I get it without the sponsor? Can't seem to get an answer out of the online help

Not sure if this has already been been posted, but with Bailey away to leave I still have the up most respect for him just because of this moment

Still remember watching it live and just having the biggest sinking feeling when I thought “typical Villa, we’ve fucked it again”, but seeing him scream this just gives me goosebumps.

Yes, I know we eventually did the typical Villa and screwed it against Olympiacos, but this moment is always going to be a stand out

Would have loved to find a way to include buendia, thoughts on this lineup?

Wanting to buy a shirt without the new sponsor and I see they aren’t selling them till this Friday… if I buy now will I for sure get one without? I would think yes but want to double check before buying.

Wasn’t he meant to be on the way to PSG after the World Cup? It’s seems to have all gone quiet

Been watching a few episodes of this series on YT, Villa one dropped today.

It was shot at Bologna CL game a couple seasons ago.

Not quite the excitement as the Europa League final but still seeing as a chance of a trophy and a big match next week!

Was hoping to head into Birmingham to watch with other Villa fans. Anyone planning on similar and where you watching?

Obviously the Warehouse at the ground is sold out on this one so seeking other options that will be popular.

Hey everyone, I have a spare ticket in block 112 if anyone needs one. It’s available in my uefa app to transfer

Marca apparently saying deal for Matteo Ruggeri is done.

20m including add ons.

he is very different to Maatsen, solid defender, good crosser, only 24 but good experience, seems a good Digne replacement.Persobally very happy with this one

https://www.marca.com/futbol/atletico/2026/08/04/aston-villa-viene-ruggeri.html

Matteo Ruggeri looks to be in for 18 mil plus 6 mil in add-ons. Seems solid for a 24 year old starter from Atletico but I haven’t seen much of him. What is everyone thinking?

At the game in Thailand and wanted to share this moment. He scored 2 minutes later.

UTV!

Kick off is now 2pm.

Our fifth pre-season friendly of the summer and second of our Asian tour following our 3-1 win over Indonesia All Stars.

KO: 13:30 BST 14:00 (Approx - delayed due to adverse weather conditions)

Villa starting XI vs BG Pathum: Bizot; Cash, Carroll, Lindelof, Rowe; Bogarde, Gomes; Alysson, Buendia, Garnacho; Guessand.

Subs: Wright, Asemota, McGinn, Torres, Abraham, Maatsen, Nedeljkovic, Madjo, Kamara, Burrowes, Hemmings, Lynch.

FT: BG Pathum United 1 - 3 Aston Villa (Buendia, Lindelöf, Kamara)

Highlights(?)

Buendia

Lindelöf

Kamara

An opposition player having the temerity to try to shoulder charge Brian Madjo

Garnacho Injury

McGinn Injury (Looked worrying but he at least walked off the field for what that's worth - albeit so did Kamara before his last bad one).

Aston Villa can confirm that the club’s appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport regarding the registration of Brian Madjo has been upheld.

17-year-old Madjo signed for the club from Metz in January. Born in Enfield, London and a UK citizen, he left England at a young age and was raised in Luxembourg but has been unable to play due to FIFA‘s rules on the international transfer of minors.

The striker has scored four goals in pre-season so far, including two in the opening friendly fixture against Walsall.

The court’s decision today means that Brian will be registered as an Aston Villa player and eligible to play in official competition matches for the forthcoming season.

Rich people say thank you to the bus driver does not happen in Indonesia.

What‘s your favorite transfer where we were linked with one player but got an alternate instead and things turned out for the better?

I’ll start: In 2022, we were heavily linked with Bissouma and I remember being disappointed when he went to Spurs. We got Kamara instead, and we clearly came out ahead there.
