I feel like posts like these should be banned on the forum. What do they actually add to the discussion? Either explain fully and don't post at all. Agreed. The vague post does no good. If you know something, post it. If not, refrain until there is solid info.

I'm fairly optimistic. I think Richardson will do a job, and N'Zogbia will provide a boost. Hoping Vlaar stays put, and I think he will.

What is that at the bottom a Bin saying *Cans* only For recycling aluminum cans! After this photo, Randy was seen to dig through it for some to sell in order to finance new signings.

Nice finish young Joe!

Few empty seats there.

Okore not in the side at all. Precautionary one assumes?

I think it is a bit of a jump for an MLS defender. Tim Ream did it for what? One season before Bolton went down? Jay Demerit did it with Watford, but he joined them while they were in the Championship and got good experience there. I agree with Villarocker on the attacking speed in the Premiereship as compared to MLS.

I went to the Philadelphia meet and greet in 2012. They only brought four players and Lambert.

12m for a player coming off an achilles rupture and not due back until at least October? Newcastle fans are nuts. If true, then Newcastle nuts.

Hello all. Villa fan from Minnesota in the USA, follower of the Villa since the late 90s. Very much looking forward to the Texas tour next week! I appreciate reading the discussions on here.

Pretty dull, other than a few spells here and there. Nothing creative coming from the center of midfield. I don't think it was Delph's best day, though I'm guessing the early yellow probably had him a bit subdued. Heskey wasn't horrible, I'd say more anonymous. Really seemed to contribute little in the second half, and I wonder why Ireland didn't make an appearance? Is he strictly here for the cups? Still waiting for some "wow" from N'zogbia. I did think Herd did well, and the back four in general were solid. Gabby did well and was threatening. Bent works hard, but relies on service and it wasn't there. Petrov was okay.

I live in America.

Glad to see Roberto Martinez' managerial ambition is to be the guy who develops players for other clubs.

I'd make this swap in a heartbeat...but there is no way this is really on the burner. Still, we can dream. Ireland needs to be reminded who pays his wages. I'd tell him to get on board and give his all the rest of the way, and if he still wants to move at the end of the season, the club won't stand in his way.

Seriously, who makes this stuff up? I suppose every player on the roster will now be rumored to be on the way out the door.

Ok....this American announcer is awful by any standard. I just have to say, we Yanks do have a few who are much better! :oops:
