He's going to get my benefit of the doubt to, there's a quality player in there and I'm hoping the move to us is the encouragement he needs to knuckle down and get back to his best.

AFCON moves back to January next year!

Welcome Ally......... I said earlier in the thread not overly impressed or disappointed with this one it's definitely a one eye on the Championship type signing, looks to have had one very good season at Genk with 20 goals in 28 appearances apart from that doesn't get in to double figures (in a European league) so I hope we as Villa fans don't pin our hopes on him then absolutely berate him when it doesn't happen...............reality check he cost less than half Wesley did! At least we'll have a recognised striker playing, now just need some decent winger to service him.

I'll believe it when I see the team sheet!

We are a better team with him in it purely because we don't have another option, he is half decent at getting a foot in and breaking up play but his first touch is truly shocking! And his passing is very limited, even after he breaks up play it seems the ball quite often is back with the opposition within a few seconds.

No hysterical screeching and Smith out posts from me, I do simple think if we take no points from the next two games we are as good as down. If Burnley can beat Leicester we can beat Watford good form or not.

Sarr out would be huge he had Targett in his back pocket at there place, absolutely terrorised him!

Simply must win this one! We need a striker so bad would be tempted to play Vassilev up front but I don't think the pressure would be good for him right now so AEG it is again, I know DD isn't up to speed yet but he's simply better than Luiz for me so Luiz comes on after 60 minutes once DD is knackered, it's a game we should be winning and not getting constantly battered so I think there's a place for Hourihane to start, Jack and Conor link up so well together. --------------------------------------Reina--------------------------------------------- ---------------------Konsa----Mings----Hause-------------------------------- Guilbert-----Nakamba-----Drinkwater----Hourihane----Targett -----------------------------------Grealish--------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------Al Ghazi------------------------------------------

I want to see where we are at after the Watford and Bournemouth games, if we can't take any points from either of them we are as good as down I think. I reckon anyone above Burnley is odds on to stay up but the rest is so close and despite the Leicester win Burnleys form is horrible!

I wouldn't be overly impressed or disappointed if this happens, it's definately a one eye on the championship type signing though which is understandable. Already scored against plop this season be nice if he managed it again.

Well woke up it sunny Oz to no news, Brighton are in worse form than us but without a striker we're friggin toothless....opportunity lost, if we lose the next two we will struggle to recover!

You make your own luck!

So we paid 22mil for a striker no where near as good who's now got a long term knee injury......fine margins indeed!

He signed in the summer, still a steal (compared to the likes of Wesley etc) irrespective of when the deal was thrashed out.

With 14 goals so far I doubt I was being sarcastic!

And Ings cost 18mil. What an absolute steal that was!

Only unsuccessfully! If only we could swap our scouting system and DOF for Brentford's we'd be laughing!

Hause you **** what were you doing?!!

I know we are in the midst of a serious injury crisis, but this is the first time I'm really finding myself questioning Dean Smith as our manager.

One thing our fans are f***ing awesome!!!!!

No 6 is on the way, just hope they don't get to 9!!

Augero had 4 touches of that ball before slotting it away absolutely shocking defending!

We had a 7 goal better GD difference than Watford this morning, gone now and will probably be a deficit by 90 mins

We are just shit against better teams, to many of our team just go walkabouts when it gets tough! it's why we don't pull off the odd surprise like other teams do.

Koala's are pussies it's the drop bears you need to watch out for!
