Dublin? He was capped once or twice before joining us I think.

Not even the England squad care about England. Come to think of it, that's probably part of the problem.

-------------------Guzan Hutton - Vlaar - Senderos - Cissokho ------------------Sanchez --Grealish - Cleverley - Gabby --------------------Delph ------------------Benteke ... Im not very good at football manager.

Bumping this up to see if anyone thinks the Cleverley deal changes their thoughts on our position? I still think around 10th. Much better average possession than last season.

If we win against Liverpool, this thread will take a dull, serious tone. Believe..

Two of our biggest problems last season were defending and possession. Both look like they'll be a lot better this year. Usher in Benteke and this could be a damn exciting season.

We have Cleverley now. It's ours to lose.

Just to clarify my position on our signing (outside of the comedy opinions I've expressed.) The only time I've taken any notice of TC is playing for England. I've never thought he was amazing in that context but as we all know international football is vastly different to club football. I don't know if the behind the scenes information on this deal will ever see the light of day, but it seems our opinion of him is based on media reports of 'his demands'. For me? We've signed a midfielder from Man United who is an England regular. I'm thrilled! I'll see how he performs on the pitch but for now, I remain extremely happy with the signing and the window in general!

Still waiting for a picture of him stretching the lady lumps out of a Villa shirt. Then I'll believe it.

Welcome, Tom. You better work bloody hard, son.

Still waiting for something official. PL dragging him out by his collar will do.

Always liked and wanted Cleverley. Never said a bad word about him......

"And here he is. First time out, give a warm Villa Park welcome to number 8, Tooooom Cleverrrleeeyyy!"

After last night I've spent most of this morning bad mouthing him to my friends and family. How am I going to be able to flip flop that?! Cleverley OUT!

Cleverley will now spend the rest of the season on the bench, get released next summer with offers coming solely from Bolton and Wigan for "occasional first team starts". It's what he deserves.

Per annum, I assume.

I just wish Lambert would be honest with us. I have work early and here I am hitting refresh, hoping for something. If he's currently in his PJ's sipping a cup of java in front of the tele, just drop us a tweet or something.

How far did you run? Any short sprints in there? Think you can dribble a ball whilst doing it? Shoot occasionally?

I agree with this. It's tough out there and you can't support a family on anything less than £60K a week.

Go home, you're drunk.

There's 3 hours left. Keep your violins locked up until about 10:50, then you can all have a nice cry and a pity tug over J. Law.

At what stage do we hope for a Simon Dawkins loan deal?

Metro are reporting Cleverley is off to Everton on loan. In other words, the Metro threw together some words that might be accurate, but probably not. http://metro.co.uk/2014/09/01/everton-looking-to-tie-up-loan-deal-for-manchester-uniteds-tom-cleverley-despite-aston-villa-interest-4853422/ Edit: Disclaimer: I know The Metro is on the blacklist and is often more inaccurate than Twitter. But it's just such an exciting day. I couldn't hold this back from you!

Yet moaning? Lol, three games in and you're quoting league positions. REALLY? Even our dimwitted manager said he wants TWO in today, because even he can see we need them We've been GIVEN, literally an extra 40m revenue this summer for doing NOTHING. Yet we've decided to invest only 6-7m of it Come back to me after the usual ten game period of settling in, and then lets see what's what with the table I came for some exciting speculation about us signing Ronaldo or young Stuart Sinclair. After reading this I'm ready to commit hari kari. Shit we're a hard bunch of fans to please.

Not sure of his age (as it is a secret) but I reckon this Bristol Rovers player might fit the bill. 24 STUART SINCLAIR MIDFIELDER Nationality: English DOB: Height: Weight: st lbs ( kg) This. This is our guy.
