  1. I see room for negativity there! Sunderland
  2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ar6YhENN6Og For those who aren't sure if he's good enough to replace one of Young/Downing.........
  3. I'm not usually one for the doom and gloom merchants we see on here, but between Young going, the dithering over Given and N'Zogbia(if we're even interested) and now Downing all but confirmed as sold i'm really struggling to remain optomistic about the season(s) ahead. The only thing that can turn this around for me is if we now go and spend £30-40m on qaulity players. Given and N'Zogbia will do for starters, get them in ASAP because the further this goes on the more unsettled us fans become and that'll start to trickle through to VP and the players/staff. Really frustrating time to be a villan.
  4. Because our manager is Alex McLeish and not Craig David.
  5. We've been reading that for about 10 days now, i'll believe it when I see it.
  6. I'm actually really surprised he became a full-back, at school he was very skillful and tended to play on the wing, I guess the youth coaches at Rangers didn't think he was good enough for the wing at pro-level and but saw something in him defensively which meant he was kept on as RB. I think we see that in his game, IMO he's excellent going forward, not unlike Walker but with less of an engine, but he's prone to errors and lack of concentration at the back which at English Prem level, you get caught out.
  7. **** me, what's your definition of average?? :?
  8. Can't link it as i'm on my phone but story now up on Sky Sports website that McLeish is ready to move for Alan Hutton, this one seems to be gathering pace.
  9. I'm sending you an application form regarding the vacant head scout position at Aston Villa FC.
  10. Where's all the speculation come from anyway, I haven't seen any paper talk yet, nevermind actual quotes.
  11. You reckon if it is Martinez, they'll keep MacAllister on as No.2? It would be a very inexperienced team - management wise anyway!
  12. mark 2 Doh! I was reading "a young mk2" as if he was being described as a younger version of 'mk2', hence the confusion!! Long day at work, honestly! :oops:
  13. Morpheus, that avatar is **** superb, where did you get it from? 2-0 Villa tomorrow, the lads know they don't want to go into the last 2 games still needing points. I'm unusually confident about this game!!
  14. What about Walter Smith? He'll be out of a job in the summer and it sounds as though Villa approached him last summer when O'Neill left. Any thoughts?
  15. One of the most lacklustre and embarassing performances since the same fixture a few months back. Really angry right now.
  16. Tonight would have been perfect for the old Collins, Dunne and Cuellar combo at the back. Dunne needs to be on top form, he's the main man at the back with the other two injured, I have faith in Clark as a footballer but against a side like City on their own turf, he could be exposed tonight. Who's gonna play left-back anyway, Delph?? Could quite easily get mauled tonight, so I'll be more than happy with a replay at Villa Park!! 1-1 UTV!
  17. I think 5m sounds more likely mate.
  18. Extremely angry at the refereeing today, very very one-sided, the ironic cheers when we got a free kick were justified. On the players - Walker looks a real asset, those runs are great to watch, Makoun was assured and strong until the red card(his tackle that lead to our goal was outstanding) and Downing looked dangerous just needs to better that final ball, NRC played one of his best for the club. Ash was awful today, and I'd love to see how many touches Bent actually had before he was taken off. Poor result.
  19. He's on the bench tonight, hopefully gets 20 mins or so and Adam is starting tonight so I'm willing him to make plenty or bursting runs so he's knackered for the weekend.
  20. Albrighton and Petrov on the bench, hmmmm........not keen on that tbh!
  21. 4-4-2 please!! Attack from the off with the same team as Saturday but with Walker in for Cuellar. 3-0! UTV
  22. Might not be a bad thing, the defenders need to stick to defending today in that formation and Cuellar is solid enough defensively at RB. Need Dunne and Collins to be excellent today, no tippy tappy shite, if in doubt - get rid!!
