  1.  

    Sanchez, Delph, Westwood, Gardner, Bacuna, Gueye, Praet

    Gil, Grealish, Zog, Sinclair, Robinson

    Benteke, Kozak, Gabby

     

    Plus the young guys in our U21 squad.

     

    Not a bad team by the looks. Definitely not relegation fodder.

     

    We'd still be in danger of relegation. We need to add more players than just Gueye and Richards IMO. 

     

    Minus Benteke and Delph it looks a little more fragile!!

  2. Will lose a lot of respect for Delph if that clause is true. How can he say he has been loyal with such a small fee put in.

     

    He said he was uncomfortable leaving Villa for free after all they had done. This is the perfect solution. You can leave if you want and we get our money back. I think any of us would have done the same and I actually thought to myself at the time... I wonder if there is a get out clause if we go down, Seems there is something if nor related to relegation.

     

    Right now he is loyal regardless of fees in contract. If he leaves 6 months after signing then maybe loyalty can be questioned but he could have waited until this summer and then decided. Villa would have nothing... so he deserves some praise for what he did.

  3. Saw a fee of £10million mentioned for Begovic in the papers today.

     

    That raises a number of questions for me. If that fee is accurate, and lets face it, it probably isn't, but if it is, does that mean we have more than the usual transfer budget available or are we planning on spending half of our usual budget on an area that doesn't need fixing?

     

    If we have quite a sizable budget this Summer then i'm all for improving the squad in all areas but £10 million on a goalkeeper who is no better than Guzan seems strange to me.

    No it doesn't necessarily mean we have more money. It means the type of player we are asking about costs more money. We don't seem to trawling around the back waters of Europe or looking for lower league players in England with Sherwood.. Until we actually sign someone and then go after a 2nd, 3rd ad 4th person we will not know if we are asking about 10 people hoping for couple or asking about 10 hoping to sign 4 or 5.

  4. That was the perfect DM game. Sanchez was excellent, all over the pitch and unbeatable. if he can play like that against Brazil we have a player Timmy!!!

  5.  

    Oh God.... we find a potential super star and he seems intent to crash and burn.

    i wonder how many other players indulge in these types of activities but dont get caught. i'd hazard a guess at "a lot".

     

    I've drank it up many a time with my friends but the one that ends up passed out, not having a clue... usually ends up being the village idiot and sooner or later something bad happens to him. I would hesitate a guess that many a player likes a drink, very few lie down in the street unconscious.  Gazza, Georgie Best.I dunno but it is not good is it???? 

  6. Tim has to grow... but that will take time. He knowledge is English players. Bring in a French manager and guess what you get... players form France. I'm not worried for this summer (actually I think I am but in denial). I am just praying for an improvement next season no matter who he buys which at least seems to be proven players. Maybe not super stars but players that should make us better.

  7. Also your team is shit that will never ever be anything but relegation fodder. Sherwood will buy shitty overpriced british players and you will struggle not to be relegated for the rest of your miserable existance. Because that's all you are. You're just like colombians. Losers. 

     

    I can recognize losers. I only hang around losers. Real Madrid. Losers. Aston Villa. Inter Milan. Losers. Colombia. Losers.

     

    All this world is full of is losers.

     

    Just accept it. 

    WTF... where did you come from big boy? 208 posts and for number 208 I want to punch your sad ass face. What the hell did you post for the rest? I am actually quite happy for Villa to classed with those other losers you name. Anyway Mr f'in big boy loser who is your team and why are you on here posting?

  8. He will be missed next week. He is very scary and a liable to put us in trouble when he has the ball but he does so much work breaking up and covering the oppositions attacks I think he does more good than bad. If he could speed up his game just by a second or 2 we have a great defensive midfielder on our hands.

  9. Sherwood deserves nothing but praise. Who knows if it will last but why people don't enjoy the ride I have no idea. It is like they don't want to find happiness. Me, I grave it when it comes to Villa and apart from the Swansea game I have been perfectly happy. Keep it up Mr. Sherwood!!!

  10. Such a strange reaction to him. Half loved his performance, half hated it.

     

    I wasn't impressed. I didn't think he did anything in the first half and was wishing Gil was playing instead of him.

    He did a couple of better runs 2nd half but was then substituted. I vote back to the bench for Saturday (Grealish or Gil .... please!)
