watched paddy mc nair play for northern ireland many times, looked ordinary as a centre back but was the dogs balls when michael oneill played him just in front of the back four. only problem was louis van gaal who destroyed his confidence after subbing him after bringing on as a sub if u know what i mean. anyway if m an utd are still only prepared to loan him out and not sell tells u that there is a great player in the making. what's there to lose go for it.

Is mccormack worth that sort of money, don't get me wrong I'm delighted we have made a move for him as he was the most prolific in the championship last season, if we can get him in asap and creative cm and maybe a right back to challenge Hutton I think we will be in good shape I'm hearing whispers about mcnaire I think would be a very good signing baker gets injured a lot
Can't wait for the weekend come on villa let's rip this championship up.
03 Aug 2016 07:56:48
Hes a proven top goalscorer in the championship, if Lukaku is worth 75 million I have no doubt he's worth it UTV.

Food for thought - BBC Sport has published a EFL XI comprising players who are available on a free transfer.

Any Takers?
02 Aug 2016 20:20:29
no none of them.
02 Aug 2016 20:32:23
Me neither,
02 Aug 2016 21:07:11
Jesus!
Can't believe half of them had contracts in first place.
02 Aug 2016 23:26:43
Ha ha ha
I know what you mean mate.
03 Aug 2016 00:49:48
Thanks Flackie. Despite rumours to the contrary, I'm really not Jesus you know .
02 Aug 2016 19:35:27
Been reading some of the 'clickbait' sites and a name has popped up that'd be a great signing for us, Jedinak of Palace, in last year of contract, if Sanchez goes after Gana has, he's worth the 2 of 'em put together on the pitch imo
UTV.
02 Aug 2016 21:14:28
Great call allyp1972. If we got jedinak along with McCormack I'm sure top 2 finish is achievable .
03 Aug 2016 02:55:10
I actually heard there is genuine interest in jedinak.
02 Aug 2016 19:22:01
So it looks like we have bid for McCormack
Will be a good signing, if it comes off
IMO We still need another three players ontop of this signing
A central midfielder, central defender to replace Clarke and a right back to provide competition to Hutton
I doubt it possible but would like to see
Cyrus Christie from Derby right back
Will Hughes from Derby central midfield
Lewis Dunk from Brighton in at central defence.
02 Aug 2016 18:13:57
I'm happy how things are going with the villa. Would love to see mccormack and bamford sign on for us. I can understand why people are panicking though. When was the last time we had anything to look forward to. The Fans always act negative as the club has treated them like a cruel master treats a dog for the last number of years. Nothing but punishment and hurt lol.
New beginning. New owner. New owner. New hope.
02 Aug 2016 18:54:44
I agree!
You turned a new leaf?
New potato?!

02 Aug 2016 18:00:19
McCormack not starting?
02 Aug 2016 18:12:44
Not sure about Bennett and Green but the rest of it looks good. Maybe Grealish in rm and Sinclair in lm?
02 Aug 2016 18:13:19
Gollini
Hutton okore elphick Amavi
Westwood tish
Ayew grealish traore
Gestede. (McCormack if signed)
02 Aug 2016 18:45:38
Good balanced team Finch 👍🏻
UTV.
02 Aug 2016 21:24:46
Avfcdan. Get rid of Gestede and westwood and that's a decent side. Gestede is a raving donkey and will only produce in s long ball team, Westwood needs replacing too.
02 Aug 2016 16:32:16
Been on the Villa tour today, with my oldest lad and two grandsons . The look on their faces was priceless, they couldent take photos quick enough . Iv been going to the Villa now for nearly 60 years, it was like seeing it for the first time . The excitement of the kids, was nearly as much as me and my son HaHa . The tour is well worth doing, to walk down the tunnel with the music playing is something else . How the players don't get stirred up by that I don't know . Onwards and Upwards Villa for ever.
03 Aug 2016 07:52:49
Went on the tour for me burfday was only me n the mrs there lol but was enjoyable, know what you mean about the music made the hairs stand up on back me neck ( got none on me ed )
And give me goose bumps sat in the dug out etc was a great day and yea how it didn't inspire them i never know! bring on the noses!

The Mail is saying not a penny less than £15M for McCormack, not worth it
UTV.
02 Aug 2016 16:22:57
Sly state that 12m offered and have made him 1/ 4 on to sign for AV.
DiM will go to the 15 mark as he needs a signing to quell supporters fears.
02 Aug 2016 17:30:13
I've said it before on here, if RDM really wanted McCormack, would probs have been his 1st signing, think something better is coming along, hoping tbh
UTV.
02 Aug 2016 18:01:58
Who's out there that's better than McCormack willing to join us in the championship?
02 Aug 2016 18:46:57
Someone who likes money if we're honest
UTV.
02 Aug 2016 18:54:05
we were after this guy from sporting Lisbon but think rdm has realised he is not keen so back for mccormack and as I said yesterday I've been told bamford will be in by Thursday.
02 Aug 2016 21:32:35
I think suprisingly Villa have been quite clever here, they have waited for Newcastle to reveal their hand then suddenly bid for Mcormack who i have to say is the best available option even at £15million, he is proven and still in the Championship.
Mind you am I giving Villa credit not due here, because it is possibbly knee jerk after fans outburst? Not surprisingly the evening mail are poo pooing the deal, yet all other reports say Villa are ahead of the face, typical of Small Heath Times ey!
02 Aug 2016 15:59:10
Best thing Ian Holloway has ever done was to predict villa will finish 16th, made the owner take notice and put his hand into his pocket. What a great signing McCormack will be, just need a creative midfielder now, then let's all tweet Holloway and ask the nob if villa will still finish 16th. UTV.
02 Aug 2016 14:49:07
Ye bye bye then clark if you don't want to play for the villa no more hurry up and pass ya medical so we can spend the 5mill.
02 Aug 2016 11:57:06
ok clark might be going but to be honest if people bid for any of our players i won't be sad to see any of it go its all rubbish as we seen last season keep collecting the money and go and buy some new talent. i read rdm interview it looks like his finding it hard to get people to come but hopefully people should still see we are a big club!
02 Aug 2016 17:07:59
If the players think you speak for the majority no wonder they want to leave and no wonder it is hard to sign new players.
02 Aug 2016 08:45:19
Here's a hypothetical question to mull over: Since we're not participating in the Premier League for one year only, who would you want to see win it this season?
02 Aug 2016 08:54:49
Arsenal. I rate wenger and the fact the club don't pay over odds for players and they make a profit each year.
02 Aug 2016 09:11:34
Are you an accountant by any chance - lol.
02 Aug 2016 10:37:17
I would lik to see Liverpool win it, great club and true giant. The likes of Chelski and Mansour City are purely manufactured with no real success history or historical background. Other than that Arsenal.
02 Aug 2016 12:41:45
Haha no where close I'm a builder.
02 Aug 2016 18:11:43
I'd like to Everton an West Ham do well. Like Burnley too.
02 Aug 2016 19:07:34
Leicester city or spurs.
02 Aug 2016 20:40:21
What? That West Ham that are owned by crooked porn barons who once owned Blues and now have a brand new stadium courtesy of every taxpayer in the country
Oh yeah, I really want those buggers to do well
In reality I don't give a monkey's who wins it. But I would love to see Albion take our place in the Championship.
02 Aug 2016 02:08:21
Ridiculous if Clark goes to NUFC for 5mil, we are meant to be competing with them not handing them bargains, not his biggest fan but if they was him demand 10 plus mil.
02 Aug 2016 02:41:01
he has a 5 million buy out. nothing rdm or villa can do once that is met. down to the player. this is more of riley and Lerner.
02 Aug 2016 08:06:46
£5M more to spend on a better striker
UTV.
02 Aug 2016 08:08:04
Or. Bentekes wage for a Championship winning season. 🤔
