VillaChris Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Eze with two more for QPR today. We really could do worse I think. Talk Spurs are scouting him though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daggy_333 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 2 more goals for Bowen today. I think that's 14 goals for him so far this season. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems likely, and while I am not doubting you, why on earth would Little talk to strangers about sensitive Villa matters? Seems beyond weird. I know nothing about how this works in English football, and I don't know anyone connected to Villa (other than the owner/runner of VT), but it seems mental for people deep into the club to run their mouths about this stuff.

Zhan_Zhuang Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Brian Little is a genuine and down-to-earth gentleman, that's why he said what he did. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is just Human....maybe Brian thinks its not that sensitive....speaking to a fan, is hardly running your mouth off if he had mentioned names thats entirely different, i would agree. are you miffed, he never spoke to you?.....just kidding..............i think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 I have never met him and even if I did he'd probably stay way clear from a crude individual like myself, but from a general point of view, nobody likes talking to Norwegians cause we tend to be rather introverted to the point of extreme. I just find the idea odd. Personally I think talking of internal matters to strangers not only disloyal, but also unprofessional. Which is why I think it's weird, cause it's the complete opposite of my impression of Little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not convinced we will be in for any forwards by the sound of this. To paraphrase: 'Everyone keeps telling me we need to go and get forwards and wide players in, but for me the defence is where we need to be better' Edited December 8, 2019 by av1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 See Moreles missed a penalty today. Don't know what his general performance was v Celtic but I'm not convinced by him. Feels like another we'll sign for 15-20m and hype up as top class and then the reality will be very different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Moreles has all the attributes we are missing up front, pace, aggression, and a bit of that selfish streak all good strikers have. The big issue of course is the standard of the SPL. I don't mean to be disrespectful but the fact that Scott Sinclair can be so prolific up their makes it difficult to judge strikers from the dominant Glasgow clubs. He is very similar Maupay in many ways, someone I wish we had gone for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Remember the time we were struggling under Houllier and we went and signed Darren Bent in January? We need to try and get a striker in surely otherwise we are in a relegation battle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, I’m sure I’m not alone in having bumped into him at several games over the last few years - he is always happy to chat and I’ve no problem believing he’d say something as non- commital as that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am staggered any Villa fan thinks we are in anything other than a Relegation battle. We have been along with 11 /12 other Clubs all Season, and will be until the end. Striker or no striker I sometimes wonder if the failure to understand that is the cause of much of the woe we see on here ! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
