1974Centenary

People writing off N'Zogbia already...

Villa fans

And your impressed with him because................

Ireland can, for all intents and purposes **** off.

He's done NOTHING in a Villa shirt to show he cares or should ever be given another chance

Thats the spirit!

Unfortunately for the villa,other teams see what you see,so he aint going anywhere till his contract runs out.

What an absolute idiot.. should have been sent off, and that early in the game, absolute tool.

Then he goes on and tackles him poorly again, straight after the incident, of course he is getting a yellow card.

Intelligence level very, very low for this one.

Absolutely agree,for those blaming the ref yesterday for the loss should see Huttons tackle.Dowd messed up not sending off Hutton but he did make up for it by sending off Herd.Either way we should have been down to 10 men.

"Its so wide its unbelievable!" Trevor francis stating the obvious.

Makoun would've been no worse than Delph has been since August if he'd have stayed.

have to agree with this,he coudnt have been worse.

Collins misses a game and we concede 4,is this a coincidence?

What conspiracy? He wasn't good enough for us and now seems to not be good enough for his new team.

Just not the player the houllier fans claimed he was when he first signed.

So all O'neil fans said he was crap when he first signed?

N'zogbia is crap,right?we all agree on that?Hes absolutely brilliant at playing himself into trouble.And that bloke up at wigan stole another half million pounds off us for the privilege of his signature.LOLOl

And to think we sold them our best right back.

We should be looking to win every competition we enter (well, apart from the PL of course, which is already becoming a two horse race, not that we were ever going to compete anyway).

Houllier's defeatist attitude has no place at this club anymore. I'm sure McLeish will want to win this again.

Your right,the defeatist attitude so proudly started by O'neil,lets hope Mc'cleish is made of stronger stuff.

Why cant some people just say it the way it is?Bent had two good chances to score and he missed the target,dont sugarcoat it with he aint fit he aint happy with mcleish!For gods sake just say they were bad misses for a bloke with his ability!

he'll get at least one good chance today....

i just hope to God he will take it

He got two and missed them both,first time ive felt let down by Bent.

Watched it live on ESPN over here in Texas.

Same here but further west in California.

Without a doubt it had to be Given,second half he kept us in it.

i came on here to say that i like what i see,but i look above me and the posts on here are very negative which i find completely weird.

We really do need someone in midfield to put a foot on the ball to look for an easy pass, change the tempo and retain possession because (Houllier excepted) we just don't have enough of the football in games.

We do have someone like that. His name is Jean II Makoun.

We do however need someone to win the ball back (and protect the back 4), then give the ball to Makoun.

You mean somebody like Reo Coker?

The same guy who gave the ball away in the first place forcing him to make a rash challenge and putting pressure on the defence.

I think all the decisions made by Randy and the board are in the best interests of the club,therefore,they get mu support.

Don't blame any player for not performing for that word removed houllier.

Glad he's getting another chance

Your absolutely right!Any player who gets paid good money,really good money, to play a game should not perform for anybody if they dont feel like it.

It would be ironic if Mclaren brought Forest up and passed Villa going the other way under mcleish.

Not for 1 minute do i believe we will have mcleish as manager,the board is just going through the motions until mark hughes is announced as manager.

Think about it, apparantly someone totally off the radar that has Premier League experience, it HAS to be Walter Smith!! Would be happy with that.

It could also refer to sven goran ericcsson

I voted other but have no idea who would be good for the villa,i really dont think moyes will come to us and i dont like the look of the remainding names on the list.

McClaren would not be allowed a fair crack at this job from the majority of villa fans,i think he would do a good job under the right circumstances,but i dont think the present squad would buy what hes selling,similar to what happened to GH.

Not got a clever name for Grant?

No to Hughes,any one of Ancelotti,Deschamps and Moyes.But definitely not Hughes or Mclaren!
