Heaton?

Richards Vlaar Clark Amavi?

Eysseric? Huddlestone? Delph

Sinclair Benteke Townsend?

Looks better than current team

No Grealish?

Also your team is shit that will never ever be anything but relegation fodder. Sherwood will buy shitty overpriced british players and you will struggle not to be relegated for the rest of your miserable existance. Because that's all you are. You're just like colombians. Losers. 

 

I can recognize losers. I only hang around losers. Real Madrid. Losers. Aston Villa. Inter Milan. Losers. Colombia. Losers.

 

All this world is full of is losers.

 

Just accept it. 

Stop staring into the mirror mate.

There's no chance that he leaves this summer. More lazy journalism.

Some of the suggestions on here are really surprising...

If this was based only on players from Premier League clubs, I don't think anyone could be more rubbish than Tonev was last season. FFS, he couldn't pass, couldn't dribble and most certainly couldn't shoot. How many times did he receive the ball, take a look up and fire a shot into the stands?

Other notable rubbish:

Weimann

Gabby

Riviere (Newcastle)

Vergini (Sunderland)

Didn't Tom Fox say in an interview that he takes pride in doing business quietly? I believe he cited Delph's new contact as an example. 

Maybe Porto will sign him. 

I can't tell if you're being serious.

If that's true then this may be the most important moment of the summer for us transfer wise.

If he resigns, I think we've got a mid-table finish ahead. We'll be able to attract better players in the transfer market, our team will have a solid spine, and the lads will be much more confident going into next season.

If not, it'll be a signal to CL clubs to go and get him and we'll struggle to replace him.

Personally thought last night's episode was very hard to watch at times. That being said, my interest has piqued and I'm very excited for the season finale (while also dreading the wait until season 6).

Also, I give Jorah an 8/10 for his tumble-stab. Quality for an old fart!

 

 

 

 

 

I can see a huge turnover of players this summer like BFR's first off season. Steer,Given, Bennett, Herd, Lowton,Cissokho,Senderos, Vlaar, Gardner, Cole,Gill,Sylla,Tonev,Nzogbia,Helenius,Weimann and quite possibly Benteke could all be off. I would only be really disappointed to see Benteke and Gill go and I am open minded on Vlaar depending on what we are offering to him.

If someone can predict correctly our staring XI in next season first game, then I would like them to predict next's week's lotto results.

i think we'll line up with that line up in one form or another

So next week it will be N N N N N N with bonus ball N?

Yep spot on - it's easy isn't it this speculation lark

Great bants. As I think the young folk say.

I am 100% confident that the line up suggested is wrong.

Will let you figure out why. Points to whoever gets it first.

 

I dont believe you can play with two CFs.

TBH, I really wouldn't mind seeing him at Chelsea. He's a world class player and he deserves to play in an elite team, not battling relegation season after season. Obviously I'd love to see him stay, or would rather see him go abroad, but I think his relationships with Hazard and Courtois are going to be significant factors (not to mention, Chelsea are league champions and will be playing in that Champions League thingy that Christian and his agent keep talking about).

My best buddy is a Gooner and I'm supposed to watch the final with him and a few neutrals. It'll be awful is we lose.. but if we win....

Dwight Gayle anyone? I think he would be the perfect replacement for Weimann, would be relatively cheap (I would think between £3-5m), is only 24 years old and he has a decent scoring record as well (I think something like 10 in 25 making mostly substitue appearances).

I hate to say it but I think he'll be off to United in the summer. They're in desperate need of proven Premier League scorers and the money won't be an issue.

With that being said, I think we'll receive about £35m and if we can invest that into a few quality players at key positions (ST, LB, CB), I think we'll be alright. The key IMO is to spend any money that is received for Beneteke on two or three players at most. Liverpool and Spurs spread out the money that they received for selling their star player and look where that's gotten them.

POTY - Benteke, though I was very close to choosing Clark.

YPOTY - Grealish without hesitation. His assists have been vital in recent weeks and despite the small sample size I believe he has been significantly better than any other young player. Okore has done well, but has certainly made his fair share of mistakes throughout the year.

Not the strongest group of nominees compared to recent seasons, but I would have to vote for Delph's simply because of the circumstances. Still gives me the chills when I watch it.

They're trying to avoid the Europa seemingly, so for me we'll win by a goal 

Agreed. They're definitely hoping to avoid the Europa League so I think they'll give us this one.

Villa 2 - 1 SoHo

Benteke and Gabby to score.

West Ham are in worse shape than Steve Bruce at the moment. I think this will be a comfortable win for us but will not be enough to secure our safety.

Grealish to score his first goal for Villa, dancing past a few defenders and slotting the ball into the far corner.

Villa 3 - 0 West Ham

I think all signs point towards a Villa win here. Everton are poor away from home, have only their pride to play for, and we've been bullying top 6 teams for fun in the past few weeks. We certainly won't be able to keep them from scoring, but I think we'll simply score more.

Thought of the day - If only we could've kept that Bertrand fellow on after last season. What a difference he would've made for us.

Villa 2 - 1 Everton

There isn't much to say that hasn't already been said. Great performance from the lads minus a few key individual mistakes. Everton and West Ham don't have much to play for and after seeing the performance that Burnley put in against Leicester, I can see us winning all three.

Also, can't wait to see Grealish flourish next season. What a talent.

UTV

I would think that Tim will try to use his penchant for giving young players a chance to entice promising young players from the championship to move to Villa.

Heart says win, brain says loss.

Perhaps the reason Sherwood said this was to motivate Westwood for the game on Sunday? I thought he looked great the last time he was on the pitch and I would be sad to see him go.

Though, if he does go, I'd love to see Gary Gardner take his place next season!

Some people seem pessimistic just for the sake of it. This isn't the same Liverpool team that we once feared. We've proven that we can beat them when the pressure is off (away from home), and I think we'll beat them on Sunday. I don't think it'll be easy, but I think we'll want it more.

Benteke to run riot.

2-1 to Villa.

"Oh, Chris-tian Ben-te-keee"

If Jack scores his first goal against Spurs Tim Sherwood is going to have an absolute spasm on the touchline.
