If thre is one thing this Villa team is crying out for right now , midfield especially , that's honest endeavour , and if Remi thinks this young man is the individual who can provide such a vital ingredient , then I say , step up to the plate my son .

You only have to watch the players Xmas video to see what this nugget is all about . Nothing but negative energy , just what we need right now ,tbh I think the whole " I'm Villa through and through " , has been greatly exaggerated .

It's evident that we play with a lot less anxiety away from Villa park , so here's hoping .

I dont get it. ALL our players have been abysmal, why do Charles get so much more stick than other players? Is there a vendetta going on here? Charles played well, he is also one of the few players that if we can get him fit, whether you like it or not, can be a game changer. Start backing our players ffs, this is not the time for booing them and make them lose self confidence. Okay I take it al back , the man is world class .

if I was Gestede I"d start packing my suitcase for a trip back to the championship . Clearly not suited to this managers ideas of how the game should be played , and lbh you need a lot more than ariel ability to succeed at this level .

Let's have it right : his displays going on ratio have been absolute abysmal .One okay game in a hundred don't mean " Tom tit " to me ,

Let's hope Grealish got the message , football is a lot more than just wanting to strut your stuff . And that comes from one of his biggest fans .

We rode our luck , but good honest endeavour has it' s own reward . Onwards and upwards .

Build the team around this little gem , and just maybe .

Never seen a team look so aimless as we are . It really is painful to watch .

At Lear a manager who knows how the game should be played , May the gods be with you Remi .

T felt just like this when that scottish clearing in the woods took us down , this malaise , I'm afraid is terminal . It's a soft rain of despair and there are no end to it's drops .

Got nothing but love 4 Mr dependable .

Peter Withe was often called a battering ram , but who will ever forget what he did for us ?

Never really liked him as person , and fat too inconsistent as a player for my liking .

Good luck big man ,l ' always be grateful for your input

I think this is the quote that's wound most up. Not the patronising Champs league bollocks mentioned above.I'd be furious if the situations were reversed on that quote admittedly. But to be absolutely fair, he's come through the Academy at City and was here when we were struggling to be midtable yet still kept his place throughout the takeover. He's the type of bubbly type of lad that will have the time of his life in an empty room.And "that patronising Champs League bollocks" if you fancy taking another look at it was an attempt to suggest that he's a quality player who most didn't want to leave and he'd start in that competition thanks to his quality. I'm not sure how calling your right back good enough to start against Barcelona is patronising but I'd congratulate you for finding a way to make it that Youve got your wires crossed here. I was referring to what sheepyvillain said. I've known a few remarkes go over the heads of certain individuals , but that my man is beyond belief .

Micah told Delph City would be playing champions league football next season , that's some cat to let out the bag .

Those Irish eyes are smiling .

If losing Gil means the re - birth of Gary Gardener then that will certainly soften the blow .

Imagine having to go into a 50 - 50 challenge with him ? Just thinking about it fills me with pain . All the same , great asset for the club .

Always admired Richards , born on the manor too . Can't wait to see him in the claret and blue .

Reminds me of that johnny Rotten line : " ever think you've been had ' .

I can see him becoming totally fustrated with Lerner's transfer policy, and it all going a tad pear shaped , but I do hope I'm wrong .

Gary Gardener , step up to the plate my son .
