    I'm going to pick Petrov. He may not be the most glamorous or a headline grabber but goes about his job quietly and efficiently. His committment is second to none and he invariably uses the ball intelligently. Some are saying he's overrated but I disagree. When he's on the ball he creates space, gives us time, and gets us ticking again. A player who's workrate and composure allows others to shine.

    Good morning General, I'm a Villa fan living in Spain. I was just wondering if you could tell me where the team will be based while they are over here. Many thanks.
  3. Niall
    Yes. I'm sick of hearing about Barry. Finnan is a solid player. 16M + Finnan. Good bit of business.
  4. Niall
    Yes. If he doesn't sign talent in the summer I might have a re-think though.
  5. Niall
    yes, I do.
  6. Niall
    He's 30 years old. Perhaps that is why they are not craving to sign him.
  7. Niall
    Deco anyone? He's rumoured to be leaving Barca in the summer. He'd demand big money in wages but I´d like to think he's the sort of player we can be looking to sign. I think he´s the type of creative force we are lacking in the centre.

    That's first class service if ever I saw it! Yes, that's top class indeed. Many thanks General. I'll get my map out!

    Hi there General, I´ve just read on another thread about a training stint in Spain. Could you reveal where exactly or is that classified? I live in Spain and would love the opportunity to see the players while they are here. Many thanks, Niall.

    I'd have a lazy, overweight Ronaldo in my team!!

    Unfortunately Keita and Lille are playing Manchester United in the CL in Feb. What chance do we have, really?
  12. Niall
    Yes, I said this ages ago. This guy looks very good. I've seen him play a few times and would be a top signing.
  13. Niall
    Actually Saviola is very much a team player. He works hard and is exremely popular with his team mates and Barca fans like him a lot. If we signed him I'd be very pleased indeed. I don't rate D'Allesandro. I'd prefer his team mate Diego Melito, a very good striker.

    Rocafella. Just be careful not to blaspheme again!!
  15. Niall
    How long have you been watching the Villa?? Most people would have him in their top 30 premiership players of all time and quite a few would have him in their all time top list from anywhere. He was quite simply brilliant!!
  16. Niall
    Keita. Seen him play twice for Lille in Champions league. Right midfield. Looks awesome. Would love if we signed him.
  17. Niall
    A score draw I think. Hope we have a new signing or two by then. 1-1.
  18. Niall
    I totally agree. I have visions of this takeover saga dragging on and on with Ellis still in charge by season's start , Aitken as manager and Barry gone. .Wonder who'll want to buy us when we're in the Championship.

    The former Juventus, Barcelona and Real Madrid player won the superleague with Brondby a year ago and the 41-year-old was in the running for the Madrid job this summer before it was handed to Ramon Calderon. Calderon is the provisional president of Madrid, not the manager. Capello was given that job. Personally I think Laudrup could do a good job and would certainly be able to attract the right kind of players.

    I went for Phillips and see JPA notching up valuable assists. Reckon they'll be a great partnership with Angel being more creative and Phillips the better finisher.
  21. Niall
    And McGrath was better than 'em all!!
  22. Niall
    Olly is good, no question, but really there is no comparison. Quite simply there are very few defenders alive or dead who can compare favourably with McGrath. He was better with the ball at his feet, better in the air, read the game like no one else and all this with a pair of buckled knees and frequent hangovers not to mention bugger all training. Keep up the good work Olly. A fine defender but not quite in GOD's class. Perhaps a comparison with Southgate might create more debate.
  23. Niall
    Suppose if I had to choose a player it would be Mellberg because of his quiet determination and no bullshit approach to the game. A thorough professional and one who will always give his best. Not sure he's the ideal captain though...perhaps he's just too quiet.
