Knowing nothing of the rules, I aways thought if we stay up we can throw another £140 mill at the squad...

If we could spend £120m last summer still with that horrendous year of losses being counted on our books and towards ffp, I'm sure it is more than feasible that we could at least spend that again this summer but on 4-5 players rather than 12.

Underwhelmed??? Jeez!! Our main striker is injured, bought a back up (who already looks stronger than Kodjia) for £10m and have got another striker as a back up for free on a 6 month contract....I mean who did you seriously think we would sign??

Seems a bit late in the day to get a medical done now?

Breathe in here.....kick this! Cough And drop....job done!

Have no issue with Chester leaving....not good enough for our level.

The pace of this game will have shellshocked him.

Will need time.

 

He said the pace of training was more than he is used to.

I very much am looking forward to seeing his career develop and for him to make his 1st team debut (hopefully). 

Made a good start already by bagging a goal against Cardiff at U23 level.

Fully expect him to have a similar impact as Haaland has at Dortmund.

5 goals in 2 games shouldn't be out of reach. Or maybe even better?

Is so you can slag him, Dean, Suso and anyone else at the club off when he doesn't???

You love hyper-expectations don't you?

How about he just settles quickly, gets stuck in and improves the dynamic of our attack first....anything else is a bonus!

Fair play today. Best i've seen from us for ages.

Even if we lost the game today i wouldn't be as harsh as usual. Because i saw something to get behind during that game.

Your words in the match thread mate

Vassilev fairy tale???

If there’s one thing I hate, it’s Villa fans who can’t enjoy a moment without sniping at other Villa fans.  

Like this you mean???

Difference is they had a good team and manager. We have neither.

No....they had just come up from the championship with a mediocre team and had Pearson as manager who after being sacked the season after couldn't hold down another job on a long term basis!

Leicester were bottom of table on 17 pts after 23 games in 14/15. 

Was thinking this....they went on a good run from March onwards

Not sure about commerical aspect but we should absolutely be making moves to get sister clubs out there for recruitment purposes, or even some sort of academy like Red Bull do.

We've got two Egyptians, a Zimbabwean and the Tanzanian Lewnadowki right now. I'd imagine our name can carry some clout if we can stay up.

Definitely this.....could save an absolute fortune and create a fortune if done correctly!

Welcome.

Looking forward to seeing the dynamic with him in the team.

Hi guys

I really hope the best for Aston Villa Football Club.

Sounds like a 'Good bye'

Hopefully we can build from coming from behind and getting something.  I just have a feeling that we will start picking up results from Feb onwards like we did last year.

C'mon boys...Let's go get the winner!

Apparantly there's been quite the hostile crowd for Brighton lately. Apparantly so bad they went out in the match day programme saying they needed the crowd on their side.  Maybe we can utilize this today by getting the first goal. 

And this for me sums up the modern fan!! It's only a few years ago that Brighton were bottom of the league and very close to going out of business.....they are not exactly a gigantic club in the game.....why can't they be grateful with what they have!
