    I think the one thing Dunne can offer is knowledge of experience in the Premier League.

    Herd's picked up a knock by the sounds of it, in this Peterborough game, hopefully he can shake it off.

    I like Baker too. And think they'd make a good partnership with Baker there for the headers and Herd buzing around him. You do have a point. I always forget he's 5ft8, which is small for a CB. Me and my Dad have long debates about it he does have a good jump on him and it has been done before Fabio Cannavaro - 5ft9 Roberto Ayala - 5ft9 Chris Herd - 5ft8 Ivan Cordoba - 5ft7 So it could be done and he'd be in good company if he could do it. But they're big boots (ironically) to fill. I am Paul Lambert

    Herd and Clark may develop in to swapping positions in these coming seasons.

    I'd like to see Herd given a go at CB. See how he plays. I've seen him at CB a few times in the past and he's looked quite good.

    Doesn't mean Collins was sold in order to raise funds. I don't think it has anything to do with the funds to buy him but I do think we were trying to avoid the possibility of both being on the wage bill should the Collins deal full through. I agree. It was a wage bill issue.

    Have a jar, for Roncrete Vlaar!

    I still have my fingers crossed concerning my passionate tip from a drunk man in the pub that we're in for Daniel Sturridge

    Stephen Warnock

    I could imagine a few teams being interested him, Fulham, Wigan etc maybe in England and abroad but I wonder if we'd get more than 1.5m for him? Would you be happy with that? I think I would.

    Hopefully Daniel Sturridge will fill the gap

    What happened to Celtics' interest in Dunne? Was it just a rumour?
  12. 8pints
    We have spaces for a full 11

    now? Haha, yes, NOW! On continuous loop. That should do it.

    @ITK TRANSFER: 'Hearing #AVFC looking to sign Steph Houghton after the Olympics.' Great news We could do with the Brazilian lady 'Rosana' too.

    If having to sell to buy was Julius Caesar, the sense it's not true is Jesus Christ.

    Alan Hutton

    Both Lichaj and Lowton will get an equal chance in my opinion. The back four will be experimental until January I think. We'll have to buckle our seat belts for a wild and bumpy ride as Prof. Lambert musters up various concoctions.

    What we shoud do is sing 'Stand up if you love Villa' for ninety minutes (Plus stoppage time).

    Cuellar was first to go....and I thought he was shocking too! Seemed a really nice decent bloke, but never even looked like a footballer to me Then it's already begun!
  19. 8pints
    I wonder if in fact the whole of last seasons' back four will go. Dunne, Warnock and Hutton will follow, it's just happened Collins was the first to go? That it's not a decision on quality or being wanted by other clubs, just coincidental order, the first deal to get done.
  20. 8pints
    all he needs to learn is the Chuckle Brothers' catchphrase.
  21. 8pints
    I wonder if this coming season, with a fair few of these players, especially Bannan, we'll see just how bad a manager McLeish was tactically? Just how wrong he got it with what he told these players to do? Imagine that? If McLeish was worse than we thought? :shock:
  22. 8pints
    True I'm not sure it'd half but yes, like you say, If we get him he'll be a success and all this guess work won't matter as he will score double figures and have plenty of assists
  23. 8pints
    Milner could be our new Sid
  24. 8pints
    I can't see that too be honest, It will either work out and he'll do well or we will make quite a big loss on him with the figures quoted if he's not a success and we get rid. As a player I don't mind him he works hard, scores goals and offers something a bit different to what we've got and definitely wouldn't be against it. Whether I'd pay £10m+ I'm not sure, but it doesn't matter what I think anyway. If it doesn't work out after one season and Lambert then moves him on, at 26 his price can't take too much of a hit, plus, depending on the contract length, the fee will still be substantial.
  25. 8pints
    If it didn't work out, his value would go down, would it not? Yes, sorry I didn't explain my point properly there. I meant, because of his age, it may not go down too much if it didn't work out but then the worse he performed the more his price would go down. So hopefully, he doesn't do too badly...if he does badly at all
