IT's Hughes. It's got to be. Fulham and Forest both appoint new managers with 48 hours of the position becoming available. The only reason we can't confirm the appointment is that we would have to pay compensation to Fulham if we make an announcement before the 1st July.

At least it's better than having McLeish as the manager of our club!!

Quite fancy giving Coyle a chance.

MoM Downing by a street.

Get this guy to sign a new contract asap.

This is a must, along with all the quotes in the press about commitment and loving it at Villa, he is having a blinder this season.

I hate football!!!

Oh feck

Pressures building

I can't understand why we are conceding so many goals from set pieces. It's ridiculous.

It's because we have Richard Dunne in defence.

And he is utter, utter rubbish.

Too slow to react, easily bullied, too many mistakes.

Looked like Bent lost his man to me!

Lets make the 2nd half count. Come on you LIONS!

---------------Friedel--------------

Walker---Collins---Cuellar---Clark

Young--Bradley--Makoun--Downing

------Hesky------

----------------Bent---------

This for me please

If we learned to defend properly we might of got something lost in the first half.

Makoun=amazing

Friedel=Class saves.

This.

Love the way we played the ball aroud the box, their box! Which i can't remember seeing for a long time.

Exciting times ahead, especially if we get a mobile defender in the summer.

Love what Makoun brings to the team

Gutted, thought we were going to make it in 1-0 at half time and snatch it second half. When was the last time we got goals at Old Trafford!!

8-1 for a win, taken. come on you Villa Boys!

I fancy our chances in this one. There is no way we'll play anywhere near as bad as we did last time.

Didn't pull up any trees, but I liked the way he was available to receive a pass - even though 9 times out of 10 he wasn't given the ball. His passing was usually first-time and accurate, rather than some in our midfield who want too many touches or force it forward too early and lose possession. He'll be fine when he gets his fitness sorted & other players know how he likes to play.

Agree with this 100%. Looked very neat and tidy and never gave the ball away under pressure. Unlike some of our more experienced players.

actually he did give it away, more than anyone else in the 57 minutes he was on the pitch

From my seat I didn't see this occur .

I think we will struggle to keep up the same closing down pressure 2nd hald. There's only so long you can keep that going for, but fingers crossed.

To the tune of Robin Hood.

Scores against the bad, scores against the good,

Darren Bent, Darren Bent, Darren Bent.

Welcome Mr Bent

3-1 Villa Bent hatrick

Welcome Mr Bent, here's hoping you keep up your goals per game ratio whilst at the the best club in the world.

Exactly what we need, someone who knows where the onion bag is.

What a strange feeling!

I'm a bit scared now!

Please,please, please WIN!
