Bruce simply must go. We are not even trying to press high up the pitch, and if we do then its only 2 players doing it. No tempo, no aggression whatsoever. We are at home ffs!

And where is Adoma? I simply do not see what Elmo brings.

Formation not working, change it before its too late Bruce

Is he playing Samba just mark Flint on defensive corners and set pieces? 

Are Wigan resting any players or is it their best team?

What does this make us? The 10th best club in the midlands or something?

This is embarrassing. This is Villa for f***s sake! I have been against sacking another manager because I feel we need stability, but this tactic is horrendes! I feel so sorry for the travelling fans, much respect though! Bruce simply must go! Simply embarrassing!!

I remember being excited to be link with Patrick Kluivert one summer, now we are linked with Whelan...... what a mighty fall from grace we have had. 

Yes, and then we sold Yorke

Any ideas guys? 

Is the money and the weight how much we and Man City are paying each in wages for Hart?

Didn't think about it until you mentioned it - could be coincidence or the dr being a tad playful ?

The Dr. is just like a kid playing football manager in real life as a fan - love it

That Unibet tweets interesting, but that said it could be about anything. 

Wouldn't the odds Unibet was offering be less than 16/1 for him to join us if they knew we were closing in on him?

Anyone know more about Jota of Brentford except his stats? He has 1 year left of his contract, and I read Newcastle, Everton and West Ham is interested in him at about 8 million, so he might be out of our league already.

St Etienne want to get rid of Alex Soderlund, top scorer in Norway two years ago. Worth a punt for 2-5 million? We've got good track records with tall Scandinavian players and this guy seems like a good all rounder to have next to Kodija. 30 goals in the 2015-16 season for Rosenborg. Rosenborg replaced him with Bendtner.  

 

Dear god no! 2-5 million as well? Wouldn't want him on a free.

But the other guy in the picture I would have (Ole Selnæs), maybe we should trade him for Veretout as he also plays for St.Etienne.

I don't have any grudges towards Veretout, but I wish players would refrain from spouting to the media that they don't want to play for our club. That is disrespectful and unneccesary and I don't understand why they can't just shut up until they get their transfer. He has a contract with us, and until otherwise he should suck it up.

I really hope Tony gets us back to where we belong and show these half-decent-players that it is Aston Villa who is way too good for them and not the other way around. Would love it to meet some of their teams in a European cup and fu**ing smash them. Ok, maybe I hold a grudge anyway!

"I belong to Aston Villa. I have a contract with them. I can not do anything. I am obliged to go back there for the preparation,” Veretout said. "My wish is not to stay there, everybody knows.”

No thanks to Forren. We don't need another "overweight" player who is slow. And he would not be a cover for left back.

Have Leeds signed jansson yet? He looks like a real warrior cb. 

If Newcastle are willing to sell gayle I'd go for him

Yes they have

Nottingham leading

What great memories I have growing up with the team he was a part of. My best friend at that time supported Man Utd and he used to say that he hated our defence because it was so good. He will forever be in the Villa-team I remember the most. Very sad news, RIP Ugo - Villa Legend

Oh well we'll have to wait until the second game of next season to break that record.

Not really if you count the play-off matches?

And Birmingham losing  So far, so good...if only Rotherham could nick a point or three..

And to give you a stark reminder of how far we've come this season.  Just take a look at the starting line-up for our first game this season against Sheffield Wednesday.  In hindsight it's the stuff of nightmares.

He always survives, doesn't he?

Us Villa-fans are really starved for success aren't we? People clinging on to the faintest hope there is. I guess the realists are staying away from this thread, but visiting fans from other clubs must think that all of us belive its possible. I understand that we are on a great run, but to win all of our last matches isn't going to happen. We have scored 12 goals away from home this season for crying out loud.

Just looked...we only have 3 more away matches....we are going up aren't we??

True, but i'm not into facts right now. It is really pissing me off that we can't even take advantage of teams at times like this.

Say what?
