Dunne was great there, putting his body on the line. I think Walker is rubbish at defending tbh. I can see him costing us.

Walker has been dirt so far.

Get the **** in haha.

Useless, downing is **** shite on his right foot. I can't wait for this season to end, compleat pile of wank.

**** disgrace.

I also wanted him here last summer, its a massive pity that Randy decided to go down the road he did, Its up to him to now to put things right, if GH isn't coming back i'd like us to go after Lambert, like yourself though i can't see him jumping ship.

Out of morbid curiosity. What would you be happy with ? 6th/7th ? Were you content with that under O'Neill or did you want/expect more ? I doubt we'll EVER finish in the top 4 again. So i've just accepted that and realised I don't actually care. As long as we 'try' to aim high i'm ok with falling short I've never thought of the top 4 as some great triumph anyway. Winning something yes, finishing 4/3/2 = Not really that bothered I'd love to see compeat, but I just know it won't happen. Like yourself I'd just like to see us play some good football and challenge for the cups, I'm not to interested in the Europa league tbh, under MON we had a chance to maybe get top 4 but we didn't spend in the right areas, plus a lot has changed with city, now Liverpool can get back to challenging. And when you have teams like QPR coming up with massive money it all makes it rather hard for us to be up there.

I think if we got Moyes he'd make us a top 6 or 7 team but I don't think he'd get us into the top 4, being honest we are miles off the top 4 now.

I agree with this, Even though Randy allowed the signing of Bent I don't see him allowing that kind of money to be spent in the summer so I think for any new manager it's going to be tough or for Houllier if he stays.

Broken record post removed, last chance fran.LV

Nothing is in our favour right now, imo this club is stuck in limbo because of the mistakes of the last manager, the current manager and the owner.

There is not a hope of us getting Villas Boas and anyone that thinks we can is off there head in dreamland.

I'd hope he wouldn't be a petty prick.

I'd rather give fat Sam the job than keep Houllier.

No, it's a poster on here, sir_gary_cahill. He's an absolute mental case. Ignore everything he says. But thankfully the new head of youth development at AstonVilla hmm really confused at the moment... so your saying SGC is the new head of youth development or what?? lol, :s and for the post earlier no we are not from killkenny. Dublin,Kerry and Galway grandparents are from. Sorry, I got the players mixed up. God I hope the lad doesn't have a bad patch of form at some stage, SGC will be here to rip him to shreds I'm sure.

What you don't know about youth is not worth knowing, isn't that right SGC.

When we appointed Houllier Lambert would have been my choice to take over, let's hope Randy does the right thing, if it's Lambert or Moyes I won't be to unhappy, once Houllier is gone.

To be honest, I don't care what you think about any player. However, i think it is really crass to slate young kids who are playing for our youth teams. They are following a dream. They have been closely watched by Villa scouts and they have seen something in their games that impress and they would like to develop. The majority will never make it and that is a fact that i'm sure Villa stress throughout their spells at the clubs. What if these young lads look on the forum, or their parents? I think at such a young age they deserve to be given a bit of a chance. As soon as they make the first team squad, then everyone is entitled to an opinion. But as young kids learning each day, surely they shouldn't be open to such negative crap. I heard SGC is being lined up has head if youth development, he seems to know more than the people that have managed to bring in, Garry Cahill, Gabby, Clarke, Albrighton and many others. I have to be honest though, I thinks SGC has more of a hate of where this lad is from than the type of player he is or could become. Sad little person IMHO.

Is he the lad from Killkenny in Ireland??. No, thats Micheal Drennan, who SGC has slated endlessly and said he should never play for the club again. Got to question somebody who gets their kicks tearing teenagers playing fo youth teams to shreds. Pretty tasteless as far as I'm concerned. I'm sure SGC is better than them though :winkold:

Pretty tasteless as far as I'm concerned. he's not good enough for this great football club, it's as simple as that That's the lad I'm thinking of. I'll trust the people at our club more than I'll trust you when it comes to youth.

I thought i seen you say he was know good before??.

It's nothing got to do with who signed him, IMHO he's to light weight for the prem, I think he'll be bullied all over the park. Plus if GH thought he we needed a center mid in Jan, do you not think he should have went for someone that didn't need to settle in. More poor management IMO.

What makes you think Houller is the man to get these players??. Your off your head if you think he'll get these players, and even more mad if you think he'll get us near the top 8 never mind the top **** 4. He's a useles manager that had his time with Liverpool years ago. I think he is highly reguarded by many world class players both at home and on the continent. He has had massive influences on the type of calibre player's careers that end up playing at top clubs. Players like Toulalan, Malouda, Benzema, Gerrard are just a few that have graced the big stage that he had big influences on.. Words are that there are another batch of class players behind all these that Houllier is well aware of and has the pull to sign. Maybe M'Vila, M'Bengue etc? I dont know. Only a couple a days ago we have McAllister getting all excited in the press saying that big things are going to happen and there's people/players we want to bring in. Houllier has moved on since Liverpool and Lyon, does he not get the inside info at the French Football Federation about raising talents? Isnt/wasny he something to do with Clairfontane? I would hate to throw away a huge opportunity for Villa to reach the big time. Fair enough, if this is what you think. But there is know way GH with get the players like the ones you say above, all of them players are going to a club that can always offer champs league football, it won't happen here. He got Makoun. Who has been mainly poor, and I don't really see him being a great success.
