  1. Hmm let's dispel a couple of myths

    Johnson played for them big deal - so have many other Villa players, therefore to use that as a reason is cutting off one's nose IMO

    Journeyman - oft used on here and quite wrongly, he has played for two clubs total. Budgie was a journeyman, current equivalents are usually found in the lower leagues but for me a certain Robbie Keane fits the bill nicely

  2. in a somewhat quiet time for Villa related things, bar a couple of friendlies and the ongoing Baros saga. Let's have a look back over the last few years and pick a team that you the message board members vote for.

    So with any good team we start at the back - the very back. Goalkeeper.

    I'm not going to do the stats or write ups on the individual players you can do those yourselves

    2 days each Poll

  3. good question, never really thought about this

    I feel hte pull of the traditional white shorts, but the blue do look sort of 'smarter', to say nothing of original

  4. Polls like this can fluctuate day by day.

    On a day where our best/2nd best defender looks like missing the start of the season and we sell a player which leaves us with 3 strikers....people are likely to be looking bottom half.

    If we sign Baros, then all of a sudden people will want to be voting that we finish in the top half.

    exactly, hence my putting it in, I might write a thesis on it...........

  5. Baros purely because he's a better finisher than Vassell (whose finishing is woeful in my opinion)

    you see that's the thing I don't rate Baros' finishing any higher than Vass'

    the scousers I know reckon he misses way way too many and his head down approach has cost them lots of other good chances being created too

  6. can I predict this to be very close

    as I see it there is very little between them

    both have pace

    both score goals

    Baros possibly scores more 1 on 1's and goals generally

    Vass is better team player, less head down and run, forgetting their are 9 other players to use

  7. Lancs Villans favourite Crouch = 11

    eh! I liked the guy, thought he found his level at Soton, will look out of place at Redscouse, and I wish him luck.

    I dislike his being brought up so often on here as he does that's all. FFS he was on the bench at Soton until our new striker got injured..........
