    For what it's worth, I agree with the point. We're paying huge amounts for Championship quality players.

    It means we have to get promoted this season or the next - otherwise this could really bite us in the ass. 

    I also agree we have alot of entitled fans, how many times have you seen 'because we are Aston Villa' as an answer on twittet et al. Im sure alot of clubs view us in a poor light because of this not just Norwich.

    Theres no denying we have a target on our backs this year anyway so hopecully the team stands up and embraces that.

    Regarding the price for Kodija - we've been stuck in a corner really. We've tried all summer to get a striker and now have two days to get one. So prices go up. People know we've bid £20m for Hernandez, so they know we have money. We have come out and talked about buying a striker and Tony wants to deliver and not give false promises so we have to do something.

    I'd never heard of him before we were linked to him. But he scored a fair few last season. As long as he's going to score goals and move us away from the relegation battle area further up the table then lets do it.

     

    Pretty much what i was about to post - also to add these strikers we are looking to buy arent fringe players at their club they are the main men for their team, kind of like when Benteke linked away on deadline day wwe wouldnt have expected it to be on the cheap.

    How do we know we can afford it? We thought we could afford it with Lerner. It all seems hunky dory at the time but when shit hits the fan, it's awful. 

     

    All we can realistically do right now is hope it doesn't hit the fan at all and try and enjoy the present though?

    Indeed, this was posted yesterday but today he doesn't want to drop to the Championship. Its just somebody making stuff up

    Despite interest from Burnley, Middlesbrough winger Albert Adomah reportedly wants to join Aston Villa #Boro #AVFC

    However frustrating when these turn out to be complete fabrications i must admit i do enjoy seeing a new name linked to us.

    Didn't seem to bother to celebrate when Grelish scored, just started walking back whilst everyone else went to Jack. Moody and selfish.

    Im sure this was covered here at the time but the other week Elphick had to force him to go and clap the fans after the game.

    Interesting to see how that works out for us in the long run.

    What would you have said was a fair fee for him/do you see him being sold for double that in the future?
