If Hugill is the man we bring in and we provide very good delivery for him we will damage a lot of teams away. Hugill and Snodgrass would be very good additions.

I said this at the start of the year. I cannot see Bruce playing him to be fair. I will go far as saying he will leave and become a solid premier league player in the future.

As much as i like Snodgrass, i just do not see the logic behind what Bruce does. Snodgrass needs to have a full back to support him. The way Bruce has set us up during pre season i just cannot see him fitting into this formation.

If we sign Snodgrass, how will he fit into this 3-5-2?

They don't either ?

Good decision. He gets another fair crack, if he doesn't deliver he will be gone.

Any manager that comes into this club before this season has a big task. If we are looking to build for the future, the foundations need to be laid and if Henry fits that mould then thats it. If we want to go for a big push for promotion this season then bruce has to stay because any change to the first team will disrupt our start to this season. I feel like there are better options than Henry that can lay real foundations at this club. This job is too big for Henry.

Grealish needs to be playing at a higher level to fulfil his potential. We just need to get a good price for him. Staying for another season will hold career back.

I don't know much about this guy but i know more about the basketball team he owns. Milwaukee Bucks are a very well run franchise and they have a clear and different strategy. They have recruited players young unknown players from outside America and they tend to use a lot of young players in their roaster. I.e Giannis Antetokounmpo who is one of the best players in NBA right now Thon Maker a Sudanese Australian player who is only 21 who has top potential. It would not surprise me that as a sport fan, Edens would have a preference for low price unknown young players and a manager that is capable of bringing the best of them. If Bruce does leave , Edens would more than likely would have influenced this.

This by far the worse situation this club has been in my lifetime. We have had protest, outrage and news coverage on past situations less worse than this. This chairman is on the brink of ruining our football club without being challenged. I would love for AVST to try instigate a more sensible but aggressive approach to let it be known that we do not want Xia at this club. This is a very worrying time to be a Villa Fan and until he sells, it will get worse.

Would have been good for the club

The only positive i can take from our current position is that there are future England players currently plying their trade in the lower leagues. Maybe we can spot a few of those players.

We need someone that is capable real footballing decisions. Keeping Bruce will be to our detriment because he does not fit into our long term plan. This Villa engine malarky, does this still exist or has it left with Wyness? I have no faith in Xia to bring in a good CEO because Xia knows very little about football. Luke Organ should not be in that position because he is not a football man, he is a commercial executive. Xia's poor decisions has brought this club to shit. And until he leaves and we have an owner that can bring in their own CEO, we are pretty much stuffed.

Nicola Cortese joined Southampton in a much worse position than ourselves. It could work, as much as I would like him to join i cannot see this happening. Xia is a poor decision maker when it comes to football.

Simon Jordan was right wasn't he? I recon (See what i did) we are not going to see Xia back at this football club.. He might even sell this club and still own our training ground lol

We are seriously **** now..

We are going to face cuts and firesales there is no way that we will get promoted next season. This is an opportunity for a new manager to rebuild something with our younger players and some smart purchases abroad. I cannot see a sustainable future for this club if Bruce stays.

We all know Grealish is not going to be a one club player. He has the same agent as Gareth Bale. The biggest pro is that we can get a shedload of money for him which is beneficial for the financial health of this football club.

Transfer window starts and finishes earlier. Transfer window is now open closes on August the 9th
