Not really. Majority of his goals/assists are from Grealish position on the left in 4231

when I say attacker, I mean a central striker or wide attacking player.

I’d just like to say Son is neither a winger nor a striker. 

That is all. 

he's an attacker - play him anywhere across the front and he delivers

IBTL

Dwight McNeil is a decent player - he just needs to play in a decent side. Like when we signed Young, Downing and Milner (not suggesting he'll be that good) but playing with better players will help.

Better than Pereira.

Buendia is probably better right now, but McNeil has a higher ceiling.

Pereira is a prick - every time he scored a penalty he'd run off and put his fingers in his ears - ok, mate - because you've been so great, what's why you're going down - baggy bastard

If you could merge Trez, AEG and Traore into one player - he'd be decent. 

I like Jerina and his stats on the preview shows

is there any medical treatments or surgeries that can fix shin splints? (i assume not?)

plenty of prescription pain killers....

Judging by some of the comments on here very few of our players are good enough to play for Villa.

depends, some show good performances about one game in four - AEG, Traore, Trez, Barkley (I'm being generous) etc - if they could make that three in four then we'd be better off

Luc nillis surely, he's still not made it back onto the grass yet

I'd rather have Nilis coming back than Wesley,

I wonder what an injury like this does as he gets older.... continues to get worse?

this seems to be one of the longest injury lay-offs we've had since I started following in '94. 

vbb boys...

wheres villa_r_ace?

learn to bend the rules. The best sides do. 

would be worth giving Davis a make or break 5 starts in a row - it would benefit everyone.

I'd say Adam Johnson is a good comparison but Grealish has far more technical ability

Never forget this post....

even if he does leave - £100mil could be useful spent correctly. 

Just now, BOF said:

He signed a pro deal in October, although if you believe Talksport in February, Bayern and Juve are sniffing around him and Villa 'face a fight' to keep hold of him.

That confirms he's going nowhere then

Do we have this lad tied down?

he's in the boot of my car

McGinn has only been below-par because the system and how Smith is playing him, or has mainly been playing him, isn't that box to box style that we saw in the Championship. Personally, I think it's because Luiz has been a bit under-par lately. Get McGinn a better partner and he will be allowed to do more. I think McGinn plays better with Nakamba.

bunch of miserable gits on here.

Anyone would think we was 20th in the league with Lerner and Garde at the helm, with Richards and Lescott at the back, Guzan in goal and Flabby Agbonlahor up top. 

very improved on last season - just need decent back up/competition for him now
