great kit general... i view it as miniscule changes because last seasons kit was so good, with the view that most dont have to buy it, despite the alleged contractual obligations to nike... cunning plan, if my thinking is correct...
with regards to the current squad, i am sorry, but the "small squad" excuse will not wash this season... there is only so many times in 3 years that it can be used... it was valid in season 1.. questionable in year 2... however, now, unless randy is ordering a cull of the squad as a cost cutting excercise (and i dont believe that for a second), then if the excuse is used, it will be dismissed by me, and i will not be a very happy villa fan... have to say, that this particular villa fan is starting to get a little concerned about the managers transfer dealings...
