Get Scott Carson from derby. Solid gk. Been excellent for derby this year and was the fans player of the season.

Sorry if this is a stupid q...but Scott Brown got sent off, banned for 3 games. Celtic lodge an appeal, and therefore he is allowed to play against rangers whilst waiting for his appeal. Could we have not done this with kodija?

I reckon that keeps zola in the job a little longer....

Can tell you now that xia will throw as much money as necessary to ensure promotion this year. His plan all along is to get us up, make us a force again and then sell us on. It is not within his biz plan to spend a 2nd yr in the championship. We will be sold if we don't go up this yr

Scrappy one nil win. Need to watch bodvarson or whatever his name is. Hopefully rdm, Hutton, bunny and Westwood nowhere to be seen

Why not? Incredible player. Could be just what we need.

A curse and a jinx

Steven Gerrard player manager

Villa southerner just informed me of a double swoop for Messi and Ronaldo. It's not over yet!

has anyone found him yet?

I can't handle this level of optimism from you 2

Obviously touched a nerve by opening up this thread! I'm not trying to be overly negative - but, like other people have already said, if theres no takeover, EB as manager, no decent investment, following on from our season of woe....no motivation, negative atmosphere, chaos from top to bottom. We need to consider the possibility of what happens if we are in another dogfight next year and don't have the players to get out?

As someone has started a promotion thread, I feel, unfortunately its necessary to have this as well. If we keep the same owner, playing squad minus are promising starlets, we will be in this situation again. On paper, teams in the championship might look worse than us, but they have one thing that we seem to continually lack. Fight. What are our chances of staying up I the question I'm asking...

would anyone take Scott Carson back from derby?

I disagree. Who in their right minds is gonna take thee players off our hands after the season we've had? Be lucky to give them away. They need bringing down to earth with a thud. Pearson or else we are in for another relegation battle

by far and away the only choice we have is to get Pearson in. This guy not only executed leicesters promotion, but also the beginning of their survival. Responsible for the purchase of vardy and mahrez whilst identified kante before being sacked. the biggest reason why I want him is that he will not put up with the shit from our players. The likes of lescott and guzan playing the gum game, gabby walking around not touching the ball, nzogbia not arsed, bacuna not arsed, Richards not arsed, grealish getting smashed every Saturday, hutton shitting himself when a winger runs at him, etc etc. It makes me sick. My club I dying and these arseholes take their 60k a week and couldn't give a toss. Enough is enough. We've tried arms round the shoulder and tlc. Get someone in who they are scared to let down, who they are scared to play badly for, who they know is gonna kick their arse if they give anything less than 100%. The players aren't scared of remi, the fans or Lerner. Let them be scared of pearson

striker, gk, rb. please god.

We will win this one. UTV

we are absolute dog***t.

as an Irishman I find this offensive

Dwight yorke has the backing of Alex Ferguson to become the next villa manager..... surely not....

if mourinho got sacked by Chelsea...if we went for him with the angle of prove you are the best. All the clubs you've been at have had bagfuls of money and were already in the top 3 of their league. Have a real challenge Jose, bottom of the league, little money, poor squad, huge task.

how embarrassing reading the last few posts....once you've finished your virtual catfight come and join us talking about the thing Tha united us all. Tim is the problem imo. We have a good squad. Far better on paper than Norwich, Bournemouth etc. I watched ireland last night beat the world champions. Half their team wouldn't get in at villa. The difference is that team would have died for each other to get a result last night. You could see what it meant to all of them. Tim quite clearly just does not know how to inspire of tall them anymore. Its so sad to see. Change is needed now.

It staggers me how all of us on here (well most anyway) agree on similar things, I.e, drop gabby, buy a cb, buy a striker etc. As of yet there has been nothing to say we are definitely on for a cb, despite wild, unconfirmed reports of lescott, no confirmed interest of any strikers and to my knowledge gabby is still starting each week. My point is...are we somehow genetically different to Tim, Lerner and the board? How can they not see what we see??

Wolves have had no approach from villa, formal or informal, for any of their players
