    Will be strange feeling watching him play against us on Saturday. Think I will give a little cheer when they call his name out but nothing after that!:emoticon-0127-lipss

    Think this is why I was in a minority saying I didn’t want him back. Can’t sign a player cos he was class 10 years ago!

    I was never on the Mvilla hype train. Im expecting pelters here but just being honest. Give me a fit Kirchoff any day of the week.

    Agreed. The fact that no-one signed him in the period from May 2023 until Feb 2024 says something. Not one team in the world wanted him. People wanting him here were just being emotional

    I see he played 90 minutes tonight - his first start for WBA.

    This. So good. Such a driving force in the centre of the field. Had hoped we would build a team around his combativeness.

    Big problem when signed on a three month contract. Think we dodged a bullet here.

    Him and Cattermole were excellent in the middle of the park.
