I wonder what odds you would get from the bookie's on Villa being sold. I think that Lerner has lost interest with his toy and is willing to take offers. He has watched half of the England team being ex Villa and is unmoved. I didn't enjoy MON being Villa manager as he bought players then left them to do nothing, but he did bring in quality players that should have pushed Villa up the table. Lerner makes promises like my wife, only words and no action, and appears to break hisword quite easily. MON left because he didn't get money for players that he was promised. I think that big Eck also got the same promise but no action. Young went for half his value, Downing for about two thirds. Milner was a good deal, Barry was reasonable and Cahill was given away. Along with several others that went, we got rid of a team well able to hold its own in the prem, and we end up with a squad that is questionable. Why? The purse remained locked! What bets we have a new owner for 2012/

Agbonlahor Petrov Jenas Delph
N'zogbia
Heskey

also look to sign either
Nikola Žigić or Nikica Jelavic and maybe bring in unattached James Mcfadden.
Bench would be strong including seven from the above and Petrov, Collins, Ireland, Herd, Delfouneso, Bannan, Albrighton, Clarke and Marshall
