Marley watkins is again being linked with us, available for a bargain price is helping matters as well it seems.

Bargin price his on a free lol. His a Barnsley player. Another 1 who will crap himself playing infront of 36 thousend everyweek we need top players who can handle playing for such a big club but as a squad player free suppose couldn't hurt.

Wtw - if you know anything about barnsley supporters its that they don't suffer fools gladly, so i don't reckon he'd bottle it. yeah we're a big club, but that means zip in this league, just makes us a bigger scalp, and maybe signing a lesser known player is exactly what we should be doing, so that football is the main attraction, not a players reputation, these type of players maybe precisely what we need, it might stop some people from living off past glories and top league snobbery, remember, of all the 'top' players we've bought i think only 2 deserve to wear the jersey, we need to smell the coffee and a boot up the harris to wake up, shut up and put up-earn the right to go up, not expect it-but what do i know!



11 May 2017 13:12:48
McCormack, Lansbury, Hogan, Hourihane - all bottled it so far.

Names do not mean nothing to me mate. But Steve Bruce has said himself that the championship players he has brought haven't got to grips with playing such a big club mate and expectation level. I still say if he only buys 5 players get proven quality in. We have been link with kolarov the Man City full back his on a free and the link with Defoe is nice as well these prob won't happen but this is the type of players we should be going for!

I am still amazed that Lansbury is on 50k a week it's crazy he is poor and on big bucks we need proven players and I think Steve Bruce knows that because if he gets a bad start like Rdm pressure will be on. This club is a Premier league club and needs to get back there quick no more excuses.



11 May 2017 15:29:31
Where have we been linked with Kolarov? and where's the information saying Lansbury is on 50k a week?



11 May 2017 15:35:30
WTW

did you actually just put Defoe and kolarov in the last post about proven names coming to villa?

Please sir if your going to spout off please talk sense, because both players will never grace the championship in claret and blue

Brighton have just got promoted from this division . The majority of their players have come from the championship or lower leagues .

So your point is floored .

On the flip side, I do agree that some of the new additions have looked out of sorts .

Far to many have not played like they did at previous clubs. There are far to many side ways passes in the middle of the park and the ball is not quick enough

Steve Brice needs to allow the players to be far more expansive in their play . He also needs to tell jimmy danger to pass more often.

I would love to see veretout in the team personally I would send Grealish out on loan for a year and let's see why veretout has got

I would also be very tempted into having a good go at getting forestieri from Wednesday if they sell that is.

Watkins from Barnsley is a good shout being a free transfer

Failing that Jota and Vibe from Brentford certainly add some flair.

Kolarov was on a man city fanzine, popped up on newsnow and lansbury link was through football manager who have professionals who investigate these thing to make it realistic and so far they have been correct as sky sports now use them as well.



11 May 2017 17:33:49
I'd take 1 of Forrestieri, Vibe or Jota.



11 May 2017 17:34:55
Villa kenn no harm in showing ambition and to be honest we wasted so much money on poor players from the championship i don't want to watch championship players that get scared of playing in front of a crowd. let's have it right Aston Villa is a amazing club to play for they should be honoured to play for us not scared.

Steve Bruce his words not mine the players have been here 4 months now there's no more excuses they need to step up an deal with expectation because Aston Villa is a wonderful football club who need to be in the premier league.

So i doubt his going to make the same mistake again an buy championship players who have proven like Chris has said up above quite frankly have bottled it.



11 May 2017 17:06:49
Jota is a good shout. Would love to get helder costa from wolves think he would be a great addition.



11 May 2017 19:08:44
There's showing ambition and there is being down right stupid.



11 May 2017 22:12:56
Wouldn't believe Lansbury being on 50k, probably on half that, to my knowledge they are all on around 25/ 30, not 100% fact but when Gardner got a new contract Bruce aid something about he was on less than everyone else and he deserved to be on the same, and a couple of papers said it was believed to be 25/ 30k mark. Only players I can see being on more would be Amavi, Gabby - players who were signed start of last season or before where they didn't have relegation clauses, Richards is probably on a whack.



11 May 2017 22:17:46
And WTW to me our best players this year have been Kodjia and Chester, so it's 50/ 50 one was from the championship and one the prem. best player signed in January must be Taylor so that's definitely something we should aim for, funny both play regularly for Wales but couldn't get a game at their clubs. We could all probably name 4 or 5 players who would improve us however it's useless if the players are then told to do something they've never done before. Bruce has got the success of this football club on his shoulders this summer, I hope his up to it.



11 May 2017 22:45:33
Wtw - if lansbury is on 50k a week, how much do you think kolarov and defoe would want-and a side point, their no spring chickens, do you think they can grind out 2-3 games a week? -defoe said he was cream-crackered after playing 4 games in 2 weeks back in january, he wouldn't last a month in the championship, but if you can persuade the doctor to get them in, i'll tip my hat to ya and buy you a sticky bun next season!



12 May 2017 00:07:47
Aww mate a sticky bun sounds amazing mate i will be praying they come now any chance off cup of tea with it? They are examples of players we been linked with mate not saying there coming but i would like them an other fringe prem stars. Also Chris great post again i agree with you about doesn't matter what players come in if Steve Bruce tells them to defend or play out of position. I hope Steve Bruce gets it right in the summer 1st of all his going Barbados on holiday then hope he comes back with a plan!
