Showing my age now, but does anyone else remember an article in the birmingham mail. Or evening mail as it was then that Villa were going to use west brom as a feeder club where we could blood our younger players. Was around 1991. Anyone else remember this???

Only bar talk. While sitting having a glass or two of gods nectar I got talking to the barman who happened to be wearing a villa shirt. I expressed my disappointment that we weren't signing praet. He said that we were and it was on good advice. To be honest I was fairly sozzled so is there any truth in it????

Why are we reading so much into yesterday's performance??
All the new signings need time.
Gabby, although I totally agree, should not play from start, actually had a half decent game, he was in my opinion marking carrick out the game. Yes going forward he didn't offer enough, but that wasn't his role yesterday.

Also we matched and at times out played a top four team, and deserved at least a point from yesterday.

If we had played anyone other than a top four team, would of been 3 points.

Give them time, how after two games can we be on the players backs??

from the highlights for Bournemouth and watching the utd game the only problems i have so far are 1, a times richards looks like a headless chicken but hopefully this will change after more game time. 2, we need to either buy a new RB (i keep saying this as i fell we are weakest there) or play a RB and not an attacking mid there. 3,i realize its only 2 games but not 100% sold on venetout yet but as plenty have said already is they may need time to adjust

First game of the season at home i thought we looked good. Yeah we lost but wasnt dominated by a "top 4 side". a lot of new players that will take time to gel so have to be patient. Nearly all players looked to give 100% chasing the ball etc. Gabby tho? I love him villa through and through but he's just not good enough. Hope tim will sub him next game. Clark and richards look solid at the back and amavi looks to be a great player. Midfield looked improved aswell. Got to admit even though we lost i enjoyed the game, great atmosphere aswell. So much more positive to lambert tactics.
UTV!

enough said about gabby,
ayew very disappointing so far,
need to see more from veretout.
Gana & Amavi great starts.
For me we have a number of players who can weigh in with a goal, what we lack is a genuine goal threat (like tekkers).

I think we have a goal threat in rudy just creative side let us down, but with gil grealish adama and okere to come in I think we have a solid foundation, amavi looked class, gana looks good , veretout maybe a bit of time to settle along with ayew but that is to be expexted but i'm happy to be fair
up the villa !

Why why why is Kozak not playing,2 seasons of nothing from gabby and Libor has looked decent,might not be the quickest but at least he can score,very impressed with TS signings this summer but for me we need to start with Rudy and Libor

People are whining about Gabby, and while he's not the player he once was, I'm very disappointed in Ayew. He's basically a slow Gabby, another Baros, he really just can't do much. Amavi was brilliant, best player in so far. Can't wait to see Traore. Gueye was solid, Veretout wasn't all that. Gestede looked sharp.
