seeing that our local rivals have both completed marquee signings with shaqiri & rondon I pray that we can bring in our own marquee signing. very excited to see the new winger come in but wouldn't cm consider him as that "marquee" signing. bringing in a marquee defender or praet is what I want for villa in the upcoming weeks
thoughts??????

Schmitts, Andy Carrol was a marquee signing for Liverpool and West Ham, and never amounted to much did it.
We are getting in several quality players that will do us just fine, Our marquee signing might already be at Villa Park, any one of our signings could turn out to be world class, who knows.
Spending 20, 30 or even 40 mil on a player will not guarantee anything.

Rudi gustede.

Selling benteke for 30+ and gustede for 6??? Would take that everyday of the week, and twice on a Sunday!

Stop looking at everyone else, and get behind who and what we have. If we sign no one else, I bet we finish above both our neighbours.

I completely agree with you guys - the signings we have bought in have come with highly rated backgrounds and I do believe we have been very swift in the transfer window. I'm just saying that stoke city have signed shaqiri who has won a treble and would have been a perfect buy for us playing on the right side. I'm very happy with our business(mostly with amavi because believe he fills that LB void we have had since bruma) just I wanna see more. so far as I'm speaking we haven't spent any actual money and just wanna see the club show a bit more intent and go out and sign that "woah" player. don't wanna come off as if I'm moaning but just want that signing that makes everyone else take notice that we can push on to that higher level and attract higher caliber stars still.
(chelsea with gullit - everton with lukaku - middlesborough with juninho)

{Ed007's Note - Shaqiri brings a lot of baggage that AV don't need at this time. AV need to become a well organised hard working team and build from there, they don't need another self-serving ego disrupting behind the scenes.}

The Daily Star are saying Adama Traore done deal ? This guy is the real deal trust me he is like a young Cristiano Ronaldo, ok I know he will probably go in a couple of seasons if he signs but he will give us top service while he is with us and he will make massive profit when he leaves. I have a really good feeling about this player and can't wait for the deal to be confirmed. :-) :-):-D

Just a thought but has anyone looked at the owners of Intuit software (Quickbooks)? I did wonder if they could be potential buyers. I know they sponsored Albion but stranger things have happened.

They don't have enough money to own Villa. Even the asking price would take a big chunk out of their revenue

So far I think our business has been pretty good I still think we are a fox in the box sort of player, hernandez type I know he would carry a big price tag and I have seen him being mentioned here before on posts, but was shoot down because we were saying he wouldn't go from United to Madrid to us but why not papers today are saying west ham are putting in a bid, surely he is the type we are after young hungry scores goals has a bit of pace aswell, I don't see any new rb coming in until the next window, and I think lennon will be here in the couple of days before the window closes he will be our next and last signing in this window, hope I'm wrong, but I'd still be fairly happy even so

Have seen that Forest are close to letting Henri Lansbury leave for Burnley for around £4M. This guy was best player on pitch during pre-season friendly & has good football pedigree. Anyone think he fits TS's conditions for recruiting English players? Could see Forest wanting Gary Gardner in return but for all his promise, can he actually spend an entire season without significant injury?

Would happily take lansbury!! Why arsenal let him go is beyond me, think he deserves a chance in the prem and think he could flurish.
Wouldnt get rid of gardner for any amount of money, was probably one of the best young english talents around at one time, petrov raved about him, wilshire and a lot of the other ex england u21 squad said he was the best player theyd played with, i just think he's been very unlucky with his injuries and with some confidence and game time I believe he could be one of the best players villa have had in time to come

to true about Gardner

Agree1 Disagree0

11 Aug 2015 18:46:56
am i the only person who hasn't seen gardener play a decent game?? the few games i have seen he didn't really stand out, i got a felling most people are just reading everyone elses hype and adding to it. or they just spent too much time on fifa

You do have a good point there strikes, same here to be honest.
I put it down to a lack of long runs in the side.

did you watch any next gen he looked by far the best player in the tournent .do you think you no more than Wilshire and a lot of the other ex England u21 squad said he was the best player they'd played with, just a thought, give him a chance

Agree0 Disagree0

11 Aug 2015 21:56:31
hey i'm not saying he's not going to be that player people say he is, i'm just saying I've seen him play handful times of forest and other loans and a few youth and them games he never stood out. and every time it sounds like he's about to get a go *snap* something gets injured.

Agree1 Disagree1

Did you guys not see him play for forrest either? They loved him! I thought you were villa fans, I look out for all our players and gards is the one that's stood out the most over the years, even more than grealish i dare say.
