Ronaldo is no good for Manure, he is so up himself and is always throwing tantrums and giving out bad vibes, i wouldnt want to play with him now, he isnt the player he was (although still good), but he acts like is is still one of the best in the world.

yeah, amazingly they would be 12th without the points deduction, tbh with the summer they had, the players they lost, and the limited way they had to get new players, they have done really well this season.

hasnt it been made clear in the news, that this isnt happening in Jan?, and even if it does, it would be in the summer?

needs to be 7ft 32in ye?

wonder if he could play DM.

longer teeth, more bite.

yes to the highlighted. I dont get all the drama over the change in transfer policy. We have a top youth setup now, some good youngish and developing players, but if the club want to have any shot of a top 6 or top 8 finish any time soon, we probably need to mix some more short term signings in, like Digne/Coutinho....and maybe Suarez etc. To me it makes sense, especially with Gerrard, he wants to show in the next 2 or 3 years that he has kicked Villa on and he is ready to "take his next step on the managerial ladder", however talented our youngsters are, we wont challenge for top 6 or 8 during Gerrards tenure by developing young players only. I quite like it tbh, we are going for it now and in the next couple of years, then "hopefully", if we can manage it, we can then bring the younger players through in a more successful and high profile team. to be brutally honest, i think the way Gerrard is trying to do it, is the best balanced approach overall, buy short term experience to get where we need to go, then once we have got there, we can bring the youth through to develop and integrate with the high calibre older players, or if the young players are that good, they can be integrated over the next 12+ months (like JJ, Hayden etc). Makes sense to me tbh.

true, he has made the most of his "talents"!

no thanks, i think he's one of the most overrated players in the Prem.

Coutinho was probably the best ever signing we have made (in terms of profile and wtf appeal) Suarez would be the next level most wtf wacky off the wall left field head wobbling mouth dribbling are we in the twilight zone signing we would probably have ever made. What a window lol.

shape good. Diet - shoulder and neck meat....raw.

Villa feels like some ABBA reunion thingy..........wacky times!

2012.......

why is he available btw?, doesnt he have 6 months left on his Atletico contract?

f**k it. BITE ALL THE THINGS!!!

no thanks. bad attitude, probably past his best tbh, lazy, fat, literally everything about the guy screams a big fat waste of money.

Lamptey is a really good player.

tbf he seems like a decent bloke in the interview.

i mean, i dont think thats true at all, but ok

class player.

are you sure u heard that right?, maybe your source was actually saying "better Bacon Baps are going to be sold pre match at Villa". much more likely.....

is that worse than doing a Villa?

he is 57yrs old, 5ft 9......so probably capable for what we need!!!
