Were you watching the same game as me Cuellar had McLean in his back pocket, crunched him two or three great tackles, it was when McLeish's love child came on and got absolutely roasted by McLean!

Alex McLeish latest comments, the massive expectations we have at this club, sorry mate all we expected was mid-table as soon as you arrived and you couldn't even deliver that you mug. The guy goes on about the rotten home record, sorry buck stops with the manager.

Hutton at RB is a joke to be honest!

Have to laugh at the comment saying would we protest if we were fighting for 7th? The fact is injuries have hit us from Feb onwards before that McLeish was so negative, lets get one thing straight this squad is not worse than the one GTII had nor is it worse than the one than MON inherited but we're on target to end up on our lowest points total. In too many games he has been too conservative and now he is paying for it with pressure. Even if we were 9th or 10th, fans would be on side however, being this close to relegation is a joke and the football is the worst i've ever seen. To put it into context who has watched Villa for 76 years and he said to me this is the worst football he has ever seen, he said no ideas, no invention its all huff and puff.

Thought they'd bring quite a few down, but we'll see.

Heskeys best season was 2000-2001 when he scored 14 league goals and 22 overall (8 in the cups).

Gabby has yet to come close to that but it must be remembered he is only 25 and so has probably not peaked yet, and Heskey was playing in a good treble winning side so had good service.

In my opinion that was the only good season in Heskeys career.

Your doing a dis-service to Heskey there, in his peak I would have had him down at VP, I just wish JG had managed to prise him away from Leicester when Yorke left, Liverpool turned him into a winger, but on his day Heskey was unplayable for Leicester.

As Delia would say 'Where are you Randy'!!

He put in a beauty the other day, Baker ducked, alot of the problems from corners is just as our players don't attack them to defend it they don't attack them to score it. Watch how Laursen defended, he attacked the ball, his aim was to win the ball and clear it, our defenders now are like lets stop an opponent.

He's right! Anyone know how many Bolton will be bringing?

Exactly. He had one chance on Saturday but he failed to hit the target, him and N'Zog have to step up tomorrow they really do.

Forget that we actually paid compensation for this clown

Watch the corners instead of hitting them into a space for players to attack players like Collins want them lifted high. Plus I'd like to say we have no good crossers of the ball, the out swinging corner is a waste! We'll go the whole season without scoring from a corner!

Wigan wont get 7-9 points I can see Newcastle beating them!

Look where Mourinho is now and look where John Terry is? John Terry winning Championships No when AVB was in charge it was always John's defensive partner's fault, like i said Makelele was a key player for Mourinho is guarding the back two, take that DM away which AVB tried and Terry gets found out as he has done with England. What you have to remember with McGrath, he never even trained, only played at games and still come out as the top player which is even more remarkable.

Think it is all planned for Spurs!

John Terry in a conventional back 4 is shit, why is it I've never seen those level of performances for England? at Chelsea they played a Makelele/Essien or Mikel in front of him as Mourinho knew that if a striker faces up to him he's in trouble. On McGrath, watch that performance for Ireland against Italy, not one defender on that list has ever had a performance like that, considering the players he had with him. Stick Vidic, Rio, Terry in an AVFC side and they wouldn't meet McGrath's standards!

It has been mentioned to stop a planned protest against Spurs, they might try a 30 year European Cup day.

the same amount DB has got from his sick bed!

Trent, you say loss of ST's it's not just that revenue they miss out on, I feel a lot of AVFC fans will not buy any merchandising etc, then take into account match day purchases. Sack McLeish bring back someone not in employment and you'd see fans flock back. Like I said to Nicole Keye as soon as he is sacked i will renew two season tickets, and I think there will be a lot of fans in this boat.

I also wouldn't believe the vote of confidence, it wouldn't make any sense for AVFC to turn around and say we will assess his future at the end of the season, as that will affect whatever morale we have left, the board will want to guarentee survival and then take stock of the situation but thats more hope from me than anything. We can only hope the calls about ST's are the club trying to find out what the renewal rate is compared to this time last season?

I don't think he will either however the board will have to look at a lot of empty seats next season.

Like I said I would not believe a word that comes out from Alex McLeish, Cuellar was on the bench, if he was not fit why place him on the bench. Bottom line is if he wanted to hold out for a 1-0, he could have bought Cuellar as everyone in that stadium knew how Stoke would score.

Cuellar? The guy needs to get himself fit first. His whole time at the club has been plagued by a lack of fitness. McL wanted to bring him on against Stoke but he said he 'wasn't quite right.' When you see Terry playing with broken ribs, this type of thing pisses me off.

No way should he get a new contract.

Its easily Petrov POTY and Herd YPOTY.

Did that actually come from Cuellar's mouth, to be honest I wouldn't believe anything that comes out of AM's mouth! Read all his pre-match conferences and then compare them to his post-match conferences and you'll gather what I'm getting at.

Since he's been away Gabby has the same amount as goals as him!
