  1. But maybe, just maybe, he might have the financial clout to do whatever the hell he wants and buy whoever he wants at any price, then all of a sudden his dream doesn't seem so crazy.
  2. Think he is prepared to splash the cash to get there tho which is a massive bonus, I don't think he will stop until he gets his goal either. i fully expect Villa to finish in the top 3 this season.
  3. I honestly think RDM won't take no nonsense, let's not forget he's been a top player, won countless things, this idea that we need a disciplinarian is rubbish, course he's going to discipline them, he knows what he is doing by all accounts.
  4. Tonev and Bowery.... Trying to forget we signed them.
  5. Surely this guy could recommend some young up coming superstar goalkeeper for us?
  6. I cannot believe he's managed to stay at the club for this long, he's never been of the standard I would've expected from an Aston Villa player, tho having been spoilt on some of the world class defenders we have had, maybe I'm just being too harsh on him?
  7. I think our transfer dealings will be pretty much like the last few seasons, not necessarily in terms of quality (hopefully) but in the fact we won't have heard of most of them. Tho I'd also like to think if money isn't an issue, why couldn't we try and get top fringe players from their clubs, im sure if the money's good and they are playing with the notion they are joining a club that in a few years will be challenging for Europe then why not consider a move to Villa?
  8. Completely forgot about Kozak, he could possible do some damage in the championship! Tbh although the team was completely pony last season I do actually still believe with the right set up and management, it's a squad good enough to win the championship imo.
  9. As a manager coming into a new job with a massive task on, where exactly do you even begin, I imagine most players are off on their holidays, so there's no one to really talk to regards contract terminations etc, and no one to train or implement systems etc. What do you actually do? I guess you wait for takeover to happen, then finalise any deals you've set up? I've literally no clue what a manager does in pre-season mid takeover limbo.
  10. This is the thing, clearly at some point these players were highly rated, wtf happened to them?!
  11. Sure there's some people out there who thought the same about Villa the season we finished 9th.
  12. Stranger things have happened in football, AMC as an example, who honestly thought that would ever have happened! As much as it's unlikely, wouldn't it be great to re-sign him.
  13. Is it even possible to go down quicker then Villa did?
  14. Bamford and Ings wouldn't be the worst signings, encouraging rumours, even if that's all they turn out to be.
  15. Thing is, last seasons shite will probably do well in the championship, look at Gestede as an example.
  16. When does his contract expire? Possibly the most disappointing signing in my memory, I mean Balaban was bad, but I had no expectation from him, however with Nzogbia, having seen him single handed keep Wigan up with some great goals, I genuinely thought we had signed a top player and pulled off a coup.
  17. It's one of those dream appointments you wish your club makes as a fan.
  18. Are Liverpool actually interested in signing him or is it just paper talk? I mean he seemed like he "could" be a top player, but would Liverpool take that gamble on a player whose got a serious injury?
  19. Personally I don't think he was given a chance to really prove his quality, every time I saw him I felt like something could happen, and given the season we just had that's some good going by the lad. Think it was only him and Hutton who even bothered crossing the ball last season and the less said about Huttons crossing the better.
  20. Premier league title in 2018.... Well why the hell not! LETS DO THIS!
  21. Yes! Great appointment, and one that hadn't even crossed my mind originally.
  22. Don't, you know some on here will go into meltdown
