Tammy_Villian

slightly OT I know, but, I am seriously tempted to stick Santa Cruz in as he has knocked in 5 this week alone!! Anyone else got him / going for him?

BTW, Carson, Barry and Laursen are taking up my quota of Villa players....

Never rated Owen that much, disappointed he is a stick on starter for England despite doing what at real madrid or newcastle?

Players like him go by reputation, how many can walk back into an england squad like that, despite not doing anything?

ive got to say sometimes some of the things i read on here are outrageous how can he walk back into the england squad?perhaps because he is englands highest scorer in competitive games?did you ever see him play at real madrid his record was good despite coming off the bench a lot of the time.He was potent in the game against barca at the nou camp.

How can you not rate owen for christ sake have you just got into football last season? he has been the best english striker for many many years now and he still is given a run of games.

Must be a joke? hasn't Owen scored something like 7 goals in 12 starts for Newcastle? QUALITY!!

We've got to sign Barton, as he would provide us with exactly what we need in our midfield.

Completely disagree, the 'old' Villa would have took a chance but I don't see why we need to do that now. The risks out weigh the benefits IMO
