Milner seriously needs to work on crossing.

Hardly ever gets past the first man !

Shorey is playing we will concede again !

I reckon MON has been reading VT as Reo is playing

**** joke. Don't worry lads collins from west ham will make our defence solid :|

i was just thinking that

Why does Heskey even bother to shoot the bloke is a donkey.

Just so bad at the back and MON just cant see it.

This is the last thing they needed confidence wise !

15 seconds the defending was not even around ?

i dont see the point in being angry as Rapid beat LPool pre season so they will do us easy !

GIVE UP ! useless ****

Whats the story with Carew

Things are becoming a bit obvious ?

One min its a toe yet Carew declared himself fit and now he's Ill ?

Pfff i dont think so MON

This is a joke.

We've needed a top centre half all summer, ideally 2, but we NEEDED one for the team, and one for the squad. We have none so far.

Liverpool have now needed one for about 3 days and have agreed a fee for a 30 year old experienced international for a fairly small £2m. Why does O'Neill insist on buying English!? They are more expensive and much harder to get because all the English players good enough for us are first choice elsewhere and cost about 5 times as much as their foreign counterparts. I don't care where players are from, but it is clear as day that English players are harder to get.

This is pissing me off a lot now.

Get some players in Martin! No one cares what country they are from, only how good they are!

Because MON's knowledge of abroad is utter shit apart from Scotland or England.

I dont know what our scouts do i really dont they should be abroad looking.

Blackburn sign Salgado (Experience and a good player)

Liverpool sorted theirs out and its took MON nearly all summer to find one.

MON is so clueless when it comes to transfers he really is.

I think buying Davies for 10m sums MON up to a T. and then Cuellar for what 7m ? 17m on that partnership ?

Crazy money has been blown on this so called English talent that we have but most of them dont even cut it.

You could probably get better for less abroad for half the price.

I cant believe Hull bid 14m for Negredo at least they are willing to splash whilst we nickle and dime around our country for the overpriced english

Rant over !

I voted for Carew,i want him to play, the holte want him to play and HE WANTS TO PLAY FOR US ,THE FANS.

feeling is mutual its also mutual with every villa fan i know. Hes a class act and is easily better than most of the players at the club.

Is mon on 2/3 million a year? for that i expect a team to put 4/5 passes together and a good squad to choose from ............oh well

2/3m a year are you being serious ?

i voted NRC !

Anything better than MO's favourite.

And as NRC isn't a favourite i,d want him as captain that much more so he can prove MON wrong.

**** me is there anything right with our club?

So what are you saying ? Petrov is the leading type ? Because if you think that then your deluded.

All comes down to favourtism ffs he was shite for 3 years.

Shocking to think hes a leader

I dont know whether this has been discussed elsewhere but as i cant see it i think its an important issue that needs to be discussed.

Currently Mr Petrov is our captain but for me he is not the Leading type and never will be again i think its to do with MON's favouritism for certain players.

If i was to vote anyone to captain the team it would probably be Heskey as much as i dont like him but he would be a more determined figure and a better leader.

or even Fridel if i had a second choice.

Discuss

No another silly signing made by MON but then again MON loves signings his old club friends.

Its either him or Davies thats shite or both of them.

time for o neill to go he has endless weaknesses that he has not fixed..dont ask me why but he just has not addresed them...he must be clueless 2 wins in 17...Sack Him Randy

I'll ask again cos no-one who wants the see the back of MON seems to have an answer.

Who should be brought in? Who is available who would realistically come to Villa and do better than MON has done?

Are you saying that in order to replace MON we must be able to see into the future and have hindsight at first sight?

There are many managers out there that can do as good as MON...believe me. There are also managers out there that can take the club further...which I seriously doubt MON is able to do.

See into the future??? No Tricella, but to sack the manager without any idea of who can come in and replace him, and do a better job, is just utter idiocy.

If you say you want him sacked, then you must have other candidates in mind who you think could do a better job. If not, then you haven't really thought your position through at all.

So who is gettable, available and would want to come to to Villa, and would do a better job? It's a fundamental and vitally important question if we are debating whether our manager should be sacked - can't you see that??

if it was my choice i,d employ Alan Curbishley who has allways done well with NO MONEY !

So i,d like to see what he can do if give adequate funds.

Because MON has funds but is CLUELESS as to what to do with it. All we ever hear is we have made loads of enquirys for players bla bla but of course amounts to shite or nothing.

Haha. Curbushley would certainly placate all the angry Villa fans on here! |What are you waiting for Randy?

To be fair at least you came up with a name.

Or ever Ranieri but then again why the hell would he want to live in Birmingham ?

Both good managers !

Wonder what the Liverpool result will be !

Mascherano and Gerrard are gonn ahave a right field day ! and not to mention TORRES !

I nor do others have a huge knowledge of managers avilable but im pretty sure if you give them 100m they will do a good job to.

ffs DOL achieved the same as MON has with no money at all. The team i looked at yesterday didnt look like scoring even if you gave them 20 hours on the pitch.

What worrys me is they looked tired so please dont tell me that Peace Cup thing has shattered them ? Squad is way to small and MON cant resolve the issue or he does by bringing in simply numbers and not quality or half decent signings.

I dont see why I have to justify myself to some of you but here we go...

We play dire hoofball.

We have a shocking scouting system for buying foreign starlets and pay overated fees for overated englishmen.

We have one of the worst succesful passing stats of any team in the league during the whole of last system.

We sign absolute dross apart from a few exceptions

O Neill moans about small squads like o dreary did

He has not replaced Barry or Laursen

He plays players out of position

He sets out terrible tactics

i think thats about the size of it for me to..

And funny enough thats just how i feel to as i stated in a previous post.

Im terrified at what lies ahead i was still angry when i woke up this morning yet normally i have calmed down by then. I even had a miserable dinner at my fiancee,s parents last night to lol.

O Neill has moaned so much about the size of the squad yet hes had long enough to resolve that issue and for me i dont think he has a good enough player knowledge as he's more than willing to pay over the odds for english players or for foreigners in which he knowslike Petrov etc.

The day we went backwards was signing the likes of Heskey with the money available i expected so much better but instead its another MON favourite coming through !

I feel so sorry for the likes of Big John and especially Reo Coker who must be thinking what does it take to actually start a game as Delph just strolled in to the first team.

Lets face it Delph looked lost yesterday like a little boy in a big mans playground and if thats even a thought of a replacment for Barry then MON pack your bags now.

Liverpool next in the league and then Fulham who again our record isnt fantastic against and then the scum the week after.

Doesnt bode to well if you ask me and MON only has himself to blame for the mess along with those silly mediocre signings he has made.

For me its time to go and im not judging him over yesterdays game but the 3 to 4 months of last season.

Yesterday was probably the most toothless performance i have ever seen from a villa side.

For god sake they were playing Wigan not any of the Top 4 or any side with that quality.

The Transfers have been poor and his ability in the transfer market is just abismal.

He's had long enough to build a squad with strength in depth and yet after all this time its still on the ground.

Also the fact Petrov is captain ? He is not captain material good god i dont like Heskey but i reckon he would be more of a leader than Petrov simply because of his personality.

The decision to play Delph in place of Reo Coker who has plenty of premiership experience instead he plays a Young lad from League 1 who has absolutely none.

Surely MON could see just how bad they were in the first half yesterday yet he decided to make no changes ? 1 word CLUELESS

Time to go in my eyes

Overall good result as it could of been far worse !

MON and the squad shown what we have in store for the rest of the season !

As for Heskey what we have been saying is true you fat lumbering oaf !

And as for MON continue playing your favourites mate as its heading for one direction !

Please Randy dont give him anymore money to waste on sub standard players who either cant play or are unproven.

Decision of the day: Playing Delph instead of Rio

One is proven and one isnt MON u **** idiot.

Quote from the Sky Sports site. Sums the situation up quite nicely.

Young wastes a crossing chance and the fans boo him. How short a memory have some of these people got?

Oh right ? they clearly didnt pay attention to the last 4 months.

Im not slaggin goff Young im slagging them all of as they are awful !

Any idiot who compared City to Villa are foolish !

At least they bought quality who are available to play and evident its working already !

As for us its not working and neither does MON !

TIME TO GO and im not judging from 1 game its over half a **** season for god sake.

if i were carew and i was playing 2nd fiddle to heskey i think id be off to spurs

This !

**** me if any striker played second fiddle to that pile of shit i,d certainly be off.

Heskey has been shit all his prem life so why does MON think he can do different.

No worrys we have Liverpool next in the league we will walk that i reckon !

what a load of crap,this is what you get when you release players and do not replace them.oneil is clueless and lerner only cares about dollar signs....i said this would happen on the real forums before they were taken down because they couldnt stand reading posts from true villa fans who said this would happen.WHERES THE BLOODY 5 YEAR PLAN GONE NOW MARTIN !!!

I can totally see why those villa fans thought that way after today and last seasons final 3rd.

No leadership No organisation and a lot fo poor players bar a few all on the field.

I think its unfair to point the finger at Randy when all he's done is back a manager he thought would do the job well.

its MON,s fault witht he mess were in and i think its time for him to judging from this game and the final 3rd of last season !

To tell MON to **** off after 1 game of the season is a bit Fickle and Bullshit tbh.

Yes, we've been shit, and its embaressing and our players show no heart what so ever, but its the first game of the season.

Get over it.

1 game ? what about the last seasons final 3rd ? you must be blind
