Well done Hutton

Fee for Shane long = double villas entire summer spend. Nough said.

Sanchez looking like a spare part again, doesn't seem to know where he should be. We're not doing too bad seeing as we are carrying Sanchez and nzog..

God I used to give Allan Hutton some stick... So pleased to see he can do a job... At least he seems to be putting in a shift for us

Nah Remember hitzlsperger , shooooooooooot .... Every time...

Get the zog off.

Gabby is having it tonight.... He must be in talks over a new contract...

Ooh Guzan... Quality

Good finish by gabby, had more to do than it looked like at first.... Come on villa !!

Nice to see one go in.... But long ball again .. How long can we survive now .. 60mins of defending to come

Low attendance show villa fans have truly had enough.. Very sad.. Bad performances for 5 years.. No hope of a win let alone winning anything.. But it's the premier league that's at fault really, without a billion quid who can win anything ?

Omg good ball from Sanchez..

Oh dear here we go again

Looks good to me.. A tough start but it always takes everyone 3 or 4 games to get going at the start of the season ; we could easily get some unexpected points there. We might have a decent xmas for a change as well, instead of the usual battering we take.. The run in looks good as well...

I wouldn't 'want' to sell him at all... I'd rather keep him for the term of his contract and refuse to sell at all. I only meant that if we are 'forced' to sell , it needs to be for a decent figure. For example if he tries to force a move, which of course we don't know that he is, then we all know realistically we cannot keep a player that refuses to play here. In that situation all I was saying is that I would rather leave him in the reserves for the next 3 years rather than lose him for a small fee - so unless something upwards of £25mill comes in then keep him whatever the situation. But others suggest £40 mill plus, which I couldn't disagree with. I don't want us to sell him - quite the opposite. And you're right, if we ended up with £25 million could we find someone as good as him ? not easily... but this is going to be our problem now - when we find these great young players for a bargain (relatively) , how are we going to keep hold of them ? The only thing we can do is take a chance, sign them up on long contracts, and hold firm when the offers come in . Remember he's not out of contract and we don't have to sell at all...

Don't think I've been so mad in a long time - spurs really are cheeky bast*rds... Why would we want defoe ? too old , not good enough, has no desire to play for villa - and would want around 70k a week ? No thanks... We already have bent who is a better player... If its defoe + £30 million then maybe, no wait - defoe + £35 million .... no less.. Benteke didn't cost us too much, and the salary is quite low if i'm correct - so lets keep him. Tell him he ISNT going , at least for another year. He wont want to sit in the reserves for a year with the world cup coming up. If we find great players, only to lose them the year later we will get nowhere, we need to make a stand on this. £25million + then ok, but any less nooooo......

About time we gave someone a hiding...

Bloody hell where did this lot come from ? Top 4 next season , i expect nothing less

get in.

Good performance I think - away at the emitrates , even if we were in the top half of the table this would have been a difficult one. Great goal from weimann, just couldn't hold on - but then Arsenal aren't a bad team, are they ? Have to question the sub though - maybee another midfielder to try and keep hold of the point..

1st half villa we go down , 2nd half we'll stay up. Simples.

Omg another miss. Come in villa. Second half much better got to say...

The team have been arguing between themselves from the off. First corner Lowton and Bennett stood next to each other marking the same player. Guzan had to pull Lowton away to tell him who to mark. They really don't have a clue where they are supposed to be or what they are supposed to be doing. This must be lamberts fault. Oh another floated free kick from bannan, great.

Bit off topic , but anyone watching Nigel Kennedy on Bbc breakfast this morning ? Got his a shirt on singing villa songs good lad !

Fans singing lambert out now. I think that might be it.another manager, championship football.
