JAMAICAN-VILLAN

Huh? But he is on for VLAAR????!!! Hope he isnt injured!

Lowton on

Our best player has been shit for 80 percent of the season. Come off it!

Great defending from Clarke.

WHAT A SAVE GUZAN!

TYPICAL I MISS THE **** GOAL!

I'm surprisingly ok with the team, at least we have options on the bench!

Well what the **** did he see when he bought him? The same thing Gregory saw in Balaban I imagine. Who then went on to bang goals in for fun again in Europe and with his next team.

That happened under McLeish which makes all signings during his time here null and void. ....although I do love Robbie Keane. He came from MLS though not from Tottenham and probably no where near for the reportedly 90,000 pounds per week he is allegedly going to Toronto FC for.

Oh and btw the Defoe speculation has started as it does annually/biannually. Aston Villa Look To Hijack Spurs Star Jermain Defoe by Steven Green December 3rd, 2013 Comments Villans hope to prevent England man heading stateside. Aston Villa are hoping to prevent Tottenham Hotspur striker Jermain Defoe from heading to MLS side Toronto FC by making a bid of their own in the January transfer window, according to reports in Sports Direct News. Read More Aston Villa Transfer News And More Tottenham Hotspur Transfer News The out of favour striker has been widely tipped to make an exit from the north London outfit in the near future after falling behind record signing Roberto Soldado in the pecking order, with reports already hinting that a deal has already been put in place with the Canadian side to take him there in the new year. However, it is believed that both Aston Villa and Defoe’s former club West Ham want to stop him from heading out Stateside and keep him in the Premier League. Villa are believed to be interested in bringing the 31-year-old on board as manager Paul Lambert is looking to avoid another relegation battle this term and sees the England international as the ideal man to relieve some of the goalscoring burden from the shoulders of main man Christian Benteke. Whilst the money on offer in Toronto may be tempting, a switch to Villa Park would give Defoe the best possible chance at forcing his way into Roy Hodgson’s squad for the World Cup next summer.

Four Premier League sides ready to pounce on PSV star By talkSPORT (@talkSPORT) | Tuesday, November 26, 2013 A quartet of Premier League clubs are on red alert after Ola Toivonen’s agent revealed that the Sweden international is still some distance away from agreeing a new deal at PSV Eindhoven. Norwich City, Newcastle United, Fulham and Aston Villa have all been linked with the forward, who is inside the final eight months of his contract in Eindhoven. PSV are keen to keep him at the club but have thus far failed to reach an agreement with the 27-year-old. Serie A giants Juventus and Fiorentina are also monitoring his situation and his representative Mino Raiola has called on PSV to improve their offer or face losing him for free at the end of the season. He told Voetbal international: "He is very far from renewing his contract with PSV. We are at a key moment for the future of the player. The offer from PSV is good but insufficient. It has to be enhanced for the quality of this player." Read more at http://talksport.com/football/four-premier-league-sides-ready-pounce-psv-star-13112669556#3gLkEUYYOYxSatMg.99

He looked quite good today, when the team starts gelling I think we will see alot more. I also agree that he may deserve to start ahead of Benteke at the moment with Tekkers coming on as impact sub. As already said might be the kick up the ass he needs. Furthermore the last thing tired defenses want to see is Benteke.

People keep saying this as if it was a masterstroke, I think any of us on here would have made the same changes and perhaps even sooner!

Waste Andi!

GGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Benteke looking quite shite.

GOAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ALREADY BETTER! COME ON VILLA!

Why didnt he just make the changes at half time. WTF?!

Good play

Pathetic!

Lol

PSG Enter Race With Arsenal, Tottenham And Villa For French Striker Paris Saint-Germain have joined Arsenal, Tottenham and Aston Villa in a race to sign French Under-21 striker Paul-Georges Ntep from Ligue 2 side Auxerre. The three Premier League clubs are thought to be keeping tabs on the forward who has bagged himself 12 goals in 20 games this season. And according to Talk Sport, Paris Saint-Germain are now expressing an interest in Ntep ahead of the January transfer window. Auxerre value their man at around £2million and he still has 18 months left on his current deal. Tottenham and Arsenal are both desperate to sign a striker in January as Spurs have only scored nine goals all season whilst Arsenal have very little competition for Olivier Giroud. Aston Villa are also keen on picking someone up who can support Christian Benteke and take some pressure off the Belgian. PSG may be Ntep’s preferred choice if he wishes to stay in France but he may struggle to play regularly with Zlatan Ibrahimovic currently leading the line with Edison Cavani for company.

It' hard for me to understand how certain"lesser" clubs seem to be able to pay better wages and attract a "higher quality" of player. Baffling.

Hitzlsperger was shite apart from a long range shot, and fans loved him He may not have been the best player , but he definitely was not "shite"
