  1. A comprehensive win displaying Emeryball at it's finest in front of our owners, that should convince them that under Emery we can really go places if they keep the £s coming in.
  2. It will be the tiny segment at the end that will be edited to assert that Bournemouth should have won.
  3. Standard fare. That will do. Choice is limited, especially with Kamara unavailable. Should hopefully be good enough.
  4. Yes. A lot of money for a player his age. Definitely one for the future, and you have to think the club know what they are doing. My point is only that he does not look ready at this stage to be a starter for us.
  5. Is he not just getting game time because we have no other striking options?
  6. A draw was probably a fair result. Either team could have won that. A number of players are just not good enough - Bailey, Chambers and Cash. Duran is right in there, really getting stuck in. Will be interesting to see how he progresses.
  7. Our talented youngsters are out on loan.
  8. He is developing rapidly and seems to be a serious talent. Even to get a couple of kids coming through to the first team would be an amazing achievement.
  9. Or - bring them back and integrate them carefully into our first team.
  10. Natural goalscorer. Keep it up , young man. I believe he can make it with Villa. Just needs a proper chance.
  11. On the subject of Duran (back on subject) I know it is too late now, but Archer should have been filling the places Duran and Bailey are struggling with. I am convinced he would have been getting goals. Also he is a very busy player, and would have been a nightmare for defences alongside Watkins.
  12. We wait years for a really good striker to come through our ranks, and yet we want to cash in on him? I would be very disappointed.
  13. If we decide to augment Duran with another ready-to-play striker, we will lose Archer.
  14. Dendoncker and Chambers were bought as squad fillers and, let's face it, they are barely capable of fulfilling that role. I am sure they will do their best, but they are what they are.
  15. Duran may well have a good future, but I still maintain that it was a mistake to send Archer out on loan rather than play him. I prefer what I have seen from Archer to anything I have seen from Duran or Bailey.
  16. That was an injury waiting to happen. The referee was allowing too many heavy tackles. He should have used his yellow card earlier. Game management for referees - is that an alien concept?
  17. You get nowhere by selling your best players. I sometimes cannot understand the mentality of posters who seem to have no ambition for the club.
  18. Congratulations, big man, and very well done. Just remember - you are where you are because of Aston Villa.
  19. Keepers can win you games - and lose them. We have had plenty of experience recently with sub standard keepers.
  20. What sources? And how would they know. And blind guesswork does not constitute a source.
  21. Is that just made up? He was on £120k this morning.
  22. I actually think he has been decent enough in his time with us. With him and Moreno that's our right side sorted for maybe a couple of years maximum - neither of them are spring chickens. If the problem is players not earning their big salaries, then maybe better examples elsewhere.
  23. Thank you. And welcome to the real world.
  24. Guy I know, plays for Middlesborough, fits the bill, wouldn't cost much either.
  25. Watkins great, but Buendia changed the game. A good win that we really needed.
