is it me, or does Holman look a little like Olof mellberg??

its just you...

Decent last 2 games and can see what he is trying to do which was always going to take time . I think the new signings look very promising . Guzan keeping the shirt is very significant and PL has shown no one is safe hope Bent will take note of that .

Still think though 14th to mid table is as good as we can achieve this season .

Yesterday was a top 8 performance... If United had the same chances we did, they would have won it 4-1. Bent, ireland and Weimann all should have scored. If we start finish off our chances, we will be absolutely fine and in the top half of the table...

He did very well yesterday...

Saint-Etienne's Pierre Emerick Aubameyang is a new name to me in the #AVFC striker conundrum. Will investigate.

I am gettin extremely impatient now...

I bloody hope so. We are still a DM and Striker short at least.

I bloody hope so too. Just look at the other teams stengthening... We need players and cross our fingers that our kids are up for it.

BBC: Villa bid accepted.

Daily mail: Dempsey bid accepted. From us...

Benteke, 21, has made up his mind that he wants to join Villa and is understood to be exploring a legal loophole in his contract to try to make the move happen

Come on, pay up Lerner!

Waiting for the 'I'm hearing we've had a bid accepted' post...

we've at least had a bid...

No stick here. That's a fair assessment and a fair opinion to have. Let's hope the next 31.5 hours are mental.

agree. a lot of teams seem very strong now...

He's only making good signings IMO. Fair play to him. Wish he only made good signings here.

Shame we're not looking at Dempsey for 8m.

Dempsey and Johnson for 18mp sounds pretty good business yes... I agree with that.

Where the **** are Sunderland getting all this money?

MON is at it again...

Yes, yes, very good.

Don't shoot the messenger, I'm just passing on what I'm reading. Can't hurt on loan anyway.

Just thought about your nickname "Warnock" ;-)

Hearing #AVFC still after Benteke. Not expecting him to play in Genk’s Europa League tie with Lucerne tonight

I'd love us to get Zarate, would be a cracking signing imo maybe im being greedy but i'd love us to get Benteke too! Would give us alot of forward options.

agreed. and Zarate can also play on the wing.

Zarate would be fantastic...

Why do I get the feeling he will be doing that to us in a couple of seasons time?

oh come on, do you want him or not?

Also according to The Sun Aaron Lennon may leave Spurs. Maybe we could try get him?

oh come on...

People do realise Barton is suspended???? Pointless signing!

we will not sign him either...

No, hence why I said "Van Der Vaart is not going to come to Villa. Not a chance"

I know. Sorry, but someone mentioned him...

I'm starting to think that Joe Cole and Owen would be good to add a bit of experience, if we could get them on low wages. I'm just not sure if they would accept low. We are seriously lacking experience.

Ballack?

Please NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
