Who let the Zog out???

Lets just get in at half time and calm it down

Fans in great voice! Ohhhhhhhhh Christian Bentekeeeee

Brilliant from zog, Benteke and gabby. Terrorising them

Just a few experienced players back in the side and its having a huge impact. Keep these guys fit and get 1 or 2.

Olson will have to be careful. Good news he is on a yellow. Could be significant!

What a **** goal

At least lichaj gives us the long throw option!

I think we'll set up like this;

Guzan

Lowton, Vlaar, baker, Bennett,

Westwood Clark

Delph

Agbonlahor N'Zogbia

Benteke

I hope the lads are just concentrating on their own game because it doesn't matter about everyone else's results if we win games. I think we can beat these today, come on Villa!!!!

Agree with that - definitely one of the best I've seen in my 12 years supporting Villa, if not the best. Always played with such heart. It is his kind of character we are really lacking in and of course his quality. He deserves a chance as a coach, get him in! If he could even 50% of his passion into the lads we'd be far better off

once tipped for England stardom

has been cut loose by the club after years of underachievement and problems with alcohol.

once fifteen years ago people thought he was getting good? and a underachiever with alcohol problems?

no idea who he is, or what his footballing is like, but that was the first two things i saw looking at that article... doesnt really bode well for the fella does it? we dont need **** ups we need skilled players

probably has more of a career to build there aswell....

Was a joke re Johnson... he is a fat **** who has pocketed a load of cash for not playing! Fair play...then again he'd get in our midfield

i thought forren was going to southampton aswell? so might aswell drop him from our wish list...

who the feck are we going to sign? Bob from sainsburys?

His wages are too high...(Bob that is)

To the tune of we all hate blue scum

We're staying up, we're staying up, we're staying up and we'll win the cup!

Whenever I want this all I have to do is dreeeaaaammmm, dream dream dreammmmmm

There will definitely be movement before the end of the window.

A statement on City's official website read: "The Belgian defender could well continue his education at another club in the coming weeks having played just eight games for Steve McLaren's side."

Hope he comes here then. I think he's worth a shot. Plus Belgium is the new brazil the amount of good players they're producing

Boyata just returned to Man City from a loan at Twente...I'd say he is unlikely to play at City. Would anyone take him on loan (if eligible) with a view to permanent?

Having CNZ, Bent and Gabby back yesterday was like having three new signings. If we can get Vlaar back we actually have a decent starting 11 that I believe will steer us clear of the "r" word - good options upfront but the midfield/defence is still lacking quality and experience. I'd be happy if we got 1or 2 good experienced players in this month as well as good prospects such as Stephens. In Lambert and Henke we trust!

Has Danny Welbeck on loan crossed anyone else's mind

Would be fantastic but with United likely to be competing on 3 fronts up until May he will play games. If one of Rooney/rvp/Hernandez gets injured/suspended he will be needed even more. Plus they will rotate to save Rooney and rvp for the crucial games so I can't see them letting him go out on loan.

Because I do not believe for one minute that these players are ones that we are looking at "these are not the players you are looking for" said in a Obe Wan way.

Based on what? We had Keane here a year ago and it worked brilliantly. The squad is lacking experience massively. We do need permanent solutions of course but these 3 would be a big boost...IMO... and they are obtainable

You can forget Donovan, Cahill and keane as well!

Why?

Would anyone take any MLS players on a short term loan? I'd certainly take Tim Cahill/Robbie Keane/Landon Donovan - heck I'd take all 3 right now!

Guzan

Lowton. Dunne. Vlaar. Baker

Westwood Clark

Agbonlahor. Benteke N'zogbia

Bent

Subs: given, Bennett, Bowery, Weimann, Holman, bannan, kea

Why don't we play Holman in the centre? He has such a good work ethic and engine. He could be what we're missing in the centre.
