It's to my understanding that the FA are looking at clubs to reduce wage bills thus making it fair for everyone. Guess I'm wrong on this? If I'm right my comments were simply made to understand how other teams have no respect for the rules! Not a big FM fan, more fond of scoring goals and winning games!

This is correct all the prem teams have to have their players being paid less than there revenue by 2013 and Villa's revenue is roughly 90m and the wages were at 80m this is why they've cleared out so much attempting to reduce it to 65m.

I feel this is a bumper year for Villa as next summer we'll have the likes of Heskey and Petrov at the end of their contracts so we'll see abit more come in

Once again no ambition! I here we've signed a under 21 shamrock rovers player for January. He'll either be a waste or we'll get him to a level and sell him to man u, man city, etc etc. I hear Hutton may be signing for fulham, not a bad move really, I think herd more than capable of filling youngs shoes. Once again another quiet transfer window for the villa! After missing out on cole there's really no one else worthy of wearing the claret and blue. Think Carlton cole would look good in the colours though!

Is this the same Carlton Cole who was useless for Villa 4 season's ago do us a favour Bendtner would of been good coup or
Shane Long who in my opinion was one of the bargains of the summer next to Given and SWP

Its a good job joe coles gone to lille as he isnt physically strong enough as a centre midfielder, and theres no space out wide where he has had his best days, he couldnt even get into a poor liverpool team last season. He is off to lille because he has had his day in the prem.

Seem to recall that he put in a decent performance against us at the end of last season. Think he would have been a reasonable "loan" signing and offered ud experience, quality and variety.
