FFS! This could be my last ST this is just beyond a joke !Norwich Sunday 430pm ? That's surely incorrect
It's not incorrect it's after Capital One Cup Final as kicks off at 2
We all feel like that at times but we'll get over it and be there as usual!!!
-
Bad luck for those who bother going to the games, eh.
Why?
-
Could be very wrong foreveryyoung but it wouldn't surprise me under Lambert N'Zogbia will be sold in the summer for 2m-3m to get his wages off the books.
THe only way anyone will take this bum is on a free and I wouldn't get your hopes up on that one!

Didn't Lerner vote for FFP??
What a tool (as the other chairman were too). He now has a declining asset that nobody in their right mind would want to buy as you cannot invest to get back up to the top. I would say it serves him right but some day he'll be gone whilst we are all left to pick up the pieces
IIRC Villa, WBA and another team actually voted against it.
My Apologies - I have checked and you are right.
I doesn't change the fact that we have been cut adrift and Lerner will find it difficult to sell.
-
One more point - SURELY there are better options even for a loan??
Guidetti smacked 20-odd goals for feyenoord and stoke have just taken him on loan. That's a gamble worth taking - Young, fit again and looking to prove something.
That is the sort of loan we should be looking for

BJ is bang on the money. What a statement of how low we have sunk!
I would rather give an academy product a go than pay an obese has-been. He will be ineffective and to me Rosler must be thinking "Bonus, Send him to Villa to get himself fit and we'll sell him in the summer"
Insightful stuff! Which 'academy product' do you have in mind to replace Benteke, if injured?
anyone with two legs
Apologies - let me expand.
Any centre half playing against an immobile Holt will have the easiest day in football history. Two seasons ago he could just about cut it but if he is so out of shape he will be a piece of piss to mark

Absolute waste of space. Hope he recovers in time so we can at least try and get a bit of money for him but he'll probably walk away on a free in the future having cost us a fortune..
-
I don't rate McLeish one bit but anyone showing dissent during the 90 minutes when we should be supporting the team, wants shooting in my opinion.
-
Can we change the thread title to Man City wankfest yet :oops: ?
-
The bloke needs time, remember he didn't really have a pre season so he's been playing catch up
Not sure if you're serious? Please confirm.
-
Positive movement from Me. He's moved from 0/10 to 0.3/10.
Worst signing of any summer. AMC wants shooting. Even a blind man could see he ended up at Wigan because of his poor attitude. He's a disgrace to the club.
-
He's appalling and not going to get any better. A blind man could see this was the case.
What a waste of a modest transfer kitty.
Those who derided my opinion at the start of the season must surely see now what a terrible decision it was to bank on this loser to replace downing and Young. Mark my words, Bent will be gone in the summer.
-
Aston Villa striker Darren Bent today admitted he had “never felt so low” as when star duo Ashley Young and Stewart Downing quit the club in the summer
According to some on VT this headline should read "We don't miss Young or Downing cos we've got the Zog!!"
Sadly it doesn't and I dont care what he says, he'll be off by next summer.
Nothing to do with Nzogbia so why post it here?
Because DB feels as shafted as I do

I really like N'zog......great 1st touch, always wants the ball, our one true dribbler who can beat a man with skill.He is too desperate for a goal.Is only 24, he could be a better player for us than either AYoung, or Downing.
:shock: :oops:

Thanks for the informative contribution
It was more informative than your post above, period? Are u american or do u just like to repeat words u hear listening to american TV?
1. My comment was a continuation of previous posts as opposed to a one off comment, so no, I disagree with you too.
2. Neither. I use language which puts my point across accurately.
And your view is?
-
I admire the blind faith but come on - he's totally inept.
playing football in Premier LEague for 7 years makes you inept
See comment from KHV above who sums it up perfectly.
He was raved about at Wigan because he stood out in a few games in a team whose workrate subsidised their lack of class.
N'zogbia at Newcastle - Well he ended up going to Wigan so that sums him up there.
I am as big a villa supporter as anyone. I just view the world objectively these days and it is as obvious as anything we killed any hope of being in the top half when we sold two quality players and bought an overrated goon like CNZ
-
he isn't.
Thanks for the informative contribution

The point is - Nzogbia is pants. Period.
No, you're just happy an ignorant and unsubstantiated point you made when he signed is looking to be true.
Hence, it is neither ignorant and unsubstantiated.

I have to admit that £20m for Downing was good business. I just feel that selling both him and young at the same time was a poor decision, especially when we spunked half of the Downing money on Nzogbia, who is nothing other than a bog standard player.
What I cannot accept is that people think it is ok that we did this because Downing hasn't done anything at Liverpool yet. For the record, I do not care one little bit what liverpool are doing - they have money to p!ss away - we don't.
What we now have is a side that is competing with the likes of Bolton, Fulham and Norwich for the places above relegation. Our club cannot compete anymore with the big clubs but we should expect to at least be holding our own with the likes of Stoke, Newcastle and Everton.
Mr Lerner - You lost your nerve and cashed in on a very short term solution that Myself and thousands of other Villa fans will pay the price for for many years. Get rid of Mcleish NOW and give the job to Eriksson who might just save us the humiliation and financial catastrophe of relegation.
Last time I looked we were above Stoke and Everton and we had drawn with Newcastle (who have had an unbelievable start and WILL implode (results wise) no doubt about it).
I don't see how your concluding that 9th after 10 games means that we need Eriksson to come and save us from the humiliation of relegation?
Win on Saturday and we are on 15 points - Probably only 4 points off being half way to safety, with only a third of the season gone. Calm down
Maybe they are right now, but lets look at who weve all played;
Us: We've beaten Wigan and Blackburn at home (our only two victories) got a point v Newcastle and Wolves and lost to west brom. Weve picked a couple of handy away points up but thrown at least four away (QPR, Sunderland). Apart from Citeh and Newcastle (agreed false position) we have not played ONE other team in the top 7 either home or away - thats 12 games against them to go!
Stoke: Played Liverpool, arsenal, man u, chelsea and newcastle - and they are level on points. You get my point.
Everton: Played one less game and also played already- Man u, Liverpool, Citeh and chelsea.
On another thread I pointed out that we needed to get some serious points in the bag in the opening set of fixtures. I don't believe we have done that and we are now in danger of a bleak winter.
Don't be fooled by our position in the table
So far weve played 2 of the current top 4.
But no your absolutely right.................
There is no way we can beat Liverpool (who we beat last season, who drew at home to Norwich/Sunderland and got battered at White Hart Lane).
There is no way we can beat Arsenal (who we beat last season and who lost to Blackburn).
There is no way we can get points off Chelsea (who we drew both games with last seaon and who lost to QPR)
There is no way we can get points off Man Utd (who have drawn with Stoke and have just been absolutely enialated at home 6-1)
Football is not won on paper as it proves season after season after season
The point being we are nowhere near as good as we were last season. Downing and Young scored over 25% of our goals last season and had plenty of assists too. We have replaced that with CNZ who has done next to nothing.

We should bust the bank for this guy. Just because he is not a marquee player doesn't mean he is crap. He was labelled the new Zidane just three years ago but took the brunt of the blame for the doomed Moyes era. I think he'd be a revelation and a vast improvement on what we have now.
