Here is a question for you and this goes out to everybody whens the last time you have been excited by a Aston Villa signing?
28 May 2017 21:52:09
Sadly I get excited about every single one!
28 May 2017 22:06:05

I loved deano he was my favourite player of all time mate even love the geno song.
29 May 2017 07:35:52
Sad reflection that 25+ years on the only other one that I was interested in was James Milner.
Let's have an exiting signing this summer :-D.

Afraid to say Barnsley and the like are our feeder club now!
29 May 2017 09:44:57
To see the likes of little Bournemouth with 12 thousand crowd's paying out over 100 grand a week to defoe shows how far back we have gone
Getting back next year must happen or else we could be down amoung the dead men for many many years,

So we brought 2 Barnsley players already and now we linked with another two? Question is if Barnsley are that great why are they not at least top 6? Is this the bit of quality Steve Bruce was on about lol I was expecting well known proven premier players or at least somebody we have heard of hope the Rumours are wrong we are Aston Villa for god sake.
28 May 2017 16:02:03
Blimey, are you seriously asking that as a question?
The question is "are they good players in their own right"
Your inference seems to be they can't be any good because you don't know much about them. Surely, identifying players that are good enough for what we all want is Bruce's job. Now you may think he's not up to it but that is another question.
If you don't know anything about these players but are simply dismissing them on the basis that they are from Barnsley you are making yourself sound daft.
28 May 2017 17:25:53
Some of the players we have bought we can recognize there names but they still have been rubbieh.
28 May 2017 17:30:16
If Barnsley were that great why was they not challenging to go up if we do get these that's 4 we had from Barnsley they might be ok i don't no but the 2 we had off them are no great shakes both of them can't even get in the team and Bruce brought them so what's that saying?
28 May 2017 17:45:23
sorry for the spelling mistake i should have put rubbish.
28 May 2017 19:30:21
We had more than enough in term of quality to challenge near the top end of the table; we didn't, so do we ditch all the players and start again?
Your argument is that of a 6 year old.
28 May 2017 21:11:22
1st of all there's no need to get personal all I am saying is the last 2 players he brought from Barnsley struggle to get in the team. I have watched Barnsley and seen where they have come in the league an Iam not impressed at all there average at best. We havnt got as much quality as you say with out Kodjia we struggle. And away from home to be honest we are awful. If you want that little bit of quality its not at Barnsley trust me. Aston Villa are a Big club.
29 May 2017 14:26:46
Fair enough mate. If you've watched Barnsley extensively and have an informed opinion on their players ability then criticise them based on that, if that's what you feel is appropriate. I have no knowledge of them so would be grateful for the input.
However, what you seemed to be doing is saying they couldn't be any good because they were from Barnsley, which is a different thing entirely.
28 May 2017 08:39:46
Stuart Downing, Gareth Barry and Peter Crouch on the way back to villa park? All greats in their day.
If we are going for greats let's sort the goal keeper problem and bring back Nigel Spink. :-D.
