AshVillain

Think he will probably be loaned out this season - if not for the entire season then at least part of it. Has showed up well but probably needs to be playing first-team football on a weekly basis to bring his game on to the level required and that would perhaps be more beneficial for him. Would suggest he will move to League One club before the end of the window.

Thank you Hairyhands.

I don't blame him for rejecting blackburn - that club is in complete freefall right now.

Just Whoa Benteke - Bam a Lam. Perfect.

I do really like Sylla. I think he did well for us last year and with some improvement may become a star yet. Like Westy, he's flying under the radar right now - that's only good for us!

mmmmmmmmmmmm I am yet to be convinced by Delph. Flashes of ability no doubt, but he cannot shoot for sod all and does like to dive into a challenge every so often. I don't think he will ever be the guy to open up teams with a killer pass on a regular basis, or chip in with 10 goals a season year in year out - but I do think he could be the midfield 'sitter' and just keep things ticking over with the odd foray forward.

My problem with that is (in my mind) puts him directly in competition with Westy.

I have been hearing (well reading) very good things about this lad. Introduction into the first team squad seems due. Looking forward to hearing various commentators stumble over his surname for a season or two

for god's sake ...... just leave already.

I just hope he's better than Bennett. Anything else will be a bonus.

a corner flag is better than Bennett. Gordon is better than Bennett.

There's a pun there somewhere.

Wonder why he has 'A.Luna' on the back of his shirt instead of just 'Luna'? Crazy foreigners.

A.Luna .... tic

As a side note, I have been oogling that beard for weeks. I would like a beard transplant.

is the match only avail on avtv?

eye contact. lots of it.

I am very tempted to do a massive multi quote right here.

1 x Maincoon

1 x Bengal

1 x Cornish Rex

1 x Bengal-Rex

I love my cats.

 

Ashley young would easily walk into our starting 11. 

 

More likely limp while holding his shin.

 

Because a fly hit him ..... in the face ......

He never was and never will be a complete striker. He's not even world class. Granted he's a good finisher and will score if you get the ball to his feet in the box. However the ball to his feet at the half way line is a completely different matter.

Yes, he kept us up once, and I like every villain am grateful for that but don't overhype bent!! A one trick pony at best!!

 

42 is the answer to everything

 

Therefore, Bannan is the answer.

 

Although, as Deep Thought pointed out, the answer only makes sense if you know what the question was...

 

How many roads must a man walk down...? - Barry Bannan

 

How many Vogons does it take to change a lightbulb...? - Barry Bannan

 

How many crosses must Bannan make before someone scores from one of his deliveries...? - 42 ........

 

It's this kind of essential undecidability that I love about life...

Barry Bannan ladies and gentlemen. The answer to everything.

He has been very dignified indeed. Fair play to him. Don't really rate him as a player personally but fair play to him, many would not have been so gracious.

42 is the answer to everything

Therefore, Bannan is the answer.

"Paul and Randy have been great - they really have," added Lambert. "With the Christian thing and the lads we've brought in.

"They've backed it all the way. It's a matter of us trying to get the right personnel and once it starts for real that's the time to start to judge us.

"The new lads that have come in still need a bit of time to settle. But that's why we've done it as early as we did to give them that feeling of what the British game's like. These lads are going to give it a right go.

"We've got everybody in which is good. It's just a matter of getting them altogether and getting them playing the way you want."

looks like we might be done for the summer

Oh our defending from set pieces looks sorted ....................

If we manage to rid ourselves of Ireland, given, bent and Hutton then I can see no reason why we wouldn't dip into the market again. I think it's obvious lambert had (and probably still has) definitive targets - my guess is that this will include a goal scoring midfielder, which we are lacking.

Such a healthy squad, great prospects, good football ...... I can't be the only one thinking about higher than mid table ..................

Heskey.
