I'm your host, Dan Bardell, and there's a special treat. We are joined by Villa Untour. And he said Villa Untour, aka Max Stokes, then. That does work still. You said that before. You said that before. It does still work. I was thinking I was like implying that your real name was Villaruntour, but you're also known as Max Stokes.

But yeah. Stokes then. That does work still. You said that before. It does still work. I was

like implying that your real name was Villa Untour, but you're also known as Max Stokes.

But yeah, Max, of course, follow, everyone I know Max, is a no point me introducing him, but Max follows Villa up and down the country and of course at Villa Park as well. So Max, how are you? I'm very well done just having a chat before I think I'm than you. Everyone I know in the whole world is ill at the moment. Everyone at work, you, family members. Yeah, not feeling good at all. Fitness doubt for tomorrow. Although I don't really want to go to the game anyway, but we'll come on. We'll come on to that very, very shortly. Let's start with some positive news, Max. let's start with John McGinn's new contract just before we've come on. It's been announced that John McGinn has signed a new contract till 2028.

His contract ran until 2027 initially. So essentially, it's another year on his contract. For me, still such an important player. If I'm picking a team for a cup final tomorrow, I'm finding somewhere for John McGinn to get in that team. I think who and I, Emory probably feels the same. Standard setter, when he plays well, Villa play well. Not all Villa fans kind of rate him as highly as maybe me or you and think we should be moving away from some of these kind of players. But for me, just excellent news and a bona fide club legend. Yeah, 100%. It's as close as you're going to get to a

club legend at the moment, isn't it? Obviously, 2028 takes them to, that will take him to 10 years at Villa, which is pretty unheard of. That's right. That is. It's unbelievable. And obviously, we know how much Emery likes a versatile player, and he's just the epitome of that, isn't he? just a lot of people were talking about,

who would you man of the match be

for that Man City game last week?

And for me, it was John McGinn.

I mean, you could basically pick anybody,

fair enough.

But John McGinn, A lot of people were talking about Who would your man of the match be for that man's city game last week?

And for me, it was John McGinn.
