To be honest, I also think that this ridiculous cryptic messaging needs to stop. However, the text is can be deciphered in any which way you see fit. It's easy on first read to think he's sticking, but read through it again and equally I can draw the conclusion that he's on borrowed time. I can also think that on another side, it places some blame on the 'whole' or the team as it were, or the 'leaders' within the team not performing as they should be. Maybe giving a hint to the idea that the players were self sabotaging/ not listening to Bruce's instructions. Who knows! Fin' riddle me this, riddle me that.

Yep, really happy to be hearing this news. Thanks for those 2 (?) excellent free kicks, thanks for that bostin' header against Burton Albion.....that's about it. The fact that I struggle to think back to any high points in Bacuna's Villa career really says it all. I think he's a player who has never really found and will never find his best position on the pitch. Should have moved on a long time ago with the rest of the rot. Especially should have got rid after the 'champions league' incident. Thanks for your efforts Leandro, but it's time to put your headphones on, get on your segway and glide off into obscurity. Aston Villa will be the biggest club you will have played for. All the best.

Never want to see Thor and Samba in a back 4 together ever again.

Hull look like they are still on holiday, but I think we are looking at a very fit Villa side for a change.

Understandable lineup in reference to pre-season - exception being Bacuna of course, not sure how he deserves his spot.

Just scored a great goal in PL2 match against Brighton

Didn't even look like any of our players went over to see if Hogan was OK.

Berbatov still a free agent?

How has there not been any changes yet?

Nice to see some pressing high up the pitch

Too many new players coming into a squad that had not properly gelled from the last window.

Awful to lose to a midlands team Made worse by losing to a Lambert team Made even worse by having old Lambert favourites in our line-up, makes me ask how much has been learned since he left. How much longer will Hutton be allowed past the half-way line? How many more times will we count on Gabby's first touch? When we will stop trying to find the right position for Bacuna?

Johnstone should have had that
