  1. Totally agree, need to be careful with our words here! But the neighbourhood is a big problem in Aston. I would be shocked if 10% of the locals are even interested in the Villa never mind go. This was different 30 years ago. Its great with the likes of Manchester, Liverplop where the locals are all big big fans. Ohh, how times change!

  2. Pretty much this ^^

    What worked at Norwich certainly wasn't going to work with us. Rightly, or wrongly, expectation levels are higher at our club for a start.

    I have stated this before and will state it again. The budget he had to spend in the summer should have gone on one quality experienced DM, one quality experienced AM and two experienced quality FBs, while keeping Cuellar and if need be Collins. Those were the weaknesses that needed addressed first and he didn't have sufficent quality within our squad to allow him to purchase youth and Premiership inexperience.

    What he did have at the club was a quality goalscorer who thrives on crosses but had been stripped of his supply. So alternatively, he could have spent his budget on two decent wingers to reconnect that supply to Bent while strengthing our midfield with Diame and Adam and keeping both Cuellar and Collins for another season or two. Benteke, Lowton and Bennett could still have been purchased as Diame was on a free and Adam wouldn't have cost much more than KEA.

    For those who will come at me with 'but he only had 20m to spend,' well, he actually had more as he didn't spend all of his budget.

    Clearly Lambert has made mistakes. He did target our weaknesses but didn't purchase the right players for those weaknesses and thats why those weaknesses still exist within the team.

    100% agree with this Morpheus well spoken.

    This is why im deflecting the blame from Lerner this time and the problems for me lie at Lamberts feet!!!

  3. One thing for certain is with the sky money coming, Lerner will not want us to be relegated at any cost so I think there will be transfer money for Lambert. If we are still shit after money is spent, than the blame will have to lie in Lamberts hands

  4. Other teams have worked out our tactics now! Mark Benteke out of the game and we have nothing. No other team plays 5-3-2 reason, its simple to deal with. Watching MOTD its obvious any team playing us will and has ripped us a new one. Lambert please have a look its not working!!!!!
