  1.  

    Is it a slow news day every other day?

     

    They really are losing any credibility they have with these stories yet they continue to publish them

     

    Maybe it's just because were Villa and are not allowed to have any decent players in the eyes of the footballing media how dare we have an England international on our books

     

    what stories ?

     

    they reported Delph was going to sign for City last week, he WAS then changed his mind

     

    they've reported Benteke will be sold ASAP. He WILL

     

    that's their job

     

    it's no different with ANY other club

  2. Benteke is the best Villa striker i've seen since Yorke. And i do consider him a bit of a legend already. However, players come and go and that's football

     

    You move on. I still love Yorke and can't believe anyone would say they hate him. What ever for ?

  3.  

    Without CB we have Sinclair, Gabby and Kozak up front ( possibly Callum Robinson if he's deemed good enough to perform at this level )  

     

     

    that nearly brought me to tears, got relegation certs written all over it

  4.  

    Unfortunately I think plop are just waiting for the Sterling deal to be wrapped up. Its obvious they cannot pay the 32.5 without selling Sterling.

    I do not think that they want to give us £32.5m for Benteke.

     

    If they had they could have done that already. They have bought other players in the window so it seems like their fans they don't rate our player quite as highly as we do.

     

    They tried to get away with a lower price by offering £25m & 2 over valued players they wanted rid of but we turned that down. I hope that is the end of it with them but I'm sure the press will try to keep the story running because they just cannot accept that our players might want to spend another season at a club at which they are appreciated.  

     

     

     

    you say all that like its FACT. didn't our club say there had been no contact from any club with regards Benteke ?

  5. I reckon it's merely a matter of time now until Benteke leaves and is nothing more than down to waiting for City & Liverpool to sort themselves out with Sterling. As soon as he goes Benteke will be off...But then he clearly doesn't and hasn't wanted to play for this club for a good while anyhow so screw him... For me that's why he was so awful for 1/2 of last season

     

    1. do explain how he clearly doesn't / hasn't wanted to be here ?

     

    2. you mean that half a season where we didn't give him the ball, and instead passed it back and forth around the middle third of the pitch trying to keep possession for some unknown reason ?

     

    thanks

  6. Calm down man, it's only football!

     

    We don't know ANYTHING about what he wants right now, calm yer knickers

     

    If he goes he goes, we'll get paid well and that'll be that. Best striker since Dwight by a mile and we'll do well to replace what he brings even with 30m but that's life

  7. Two weeks ago i went to see some U13 kids football and an oldish bloke spotted my Villa scarf and came over to chat. At first I thought he was just a bit of an oddball but turns out he's a Villa scout and has been for decades. 

     

    I knew a few questions to ask in this regard as i've had family members work for the club in the past and he knew em all well

     

    Anyway. He wasn't very complimentary about what we've got coming through the ranks to say the least, or how things are being run on that side of things these days. The one player he said 'could' make it was some lad called Rashian/Rushain a striker with our under 18s I believe. But he said it's pretty slim pickings other than him

     

    We talked about all sorts but he had no first team gossip to offer sadly. When i mentioned Jack, he said he's a good lad with talent and good family but he's not convinced he'll make a career for himself at this level. Shocked me a bit but then i've not exactly been blown away by anything i've seen with my own eyes yet either

     

    Fingers crossed something does click though as we really do need our academy to start bringing through better quality players. Apparently a lot of other clubs offer young kids full education packages to entice them but we don't

    We're 12th with a better defence than every team outside the top 4.

     

    In the eyes of an owner, sackable offence?

     

     

     

    We're 12th in the worst PL in recent memory with the second lowest goals for record in the whole of EUROPE's top leagues

     

    Lol. Progress

     

     

    Didn't say progress anywhere in my post.

     

    In the eyes of an owner, is being 12th in the league with the 5th best defence a sackable offence?

     

     

    (Also, who has scored LESS than us in Europe?!?!)

     

     

     

    Hamburg

  10. No, but it is his fault that the team is set up in a way that allows us to create so few chances that we need Benteke to score with his one attempt on target.

     

     

    This, all day long. What striker can score with every chance they get ? He should be getting 5 a game at least. It's absolutely **** incredible how bad we are
