With Hogan, Gabby and Davis all back now and Green back as well I really believe we have a fighting chance to go on a run and get 2nd. If Hogan plays with Davis we could be a force 2 up top Saved Bruce his job earlier on in the season I say let's attack this League we have the players for it and When Terrys back aswel we will be right up there.

Our poor form lately has been down to injurys not bad management or players not trying if you took 5 of Wolves or Cardiffs players out they would suffer. I watch Villa I don't think we are negative or long ball at all nor do I think Bruce has got to use kids. Now players are coming back you watch us march on up the League.

One thing I do think Bruce needs to do is sell fringe players eg Bjarnsson Lansbury Elphick Richards if they don't play sell them even if they go for eg 1 million each we can loan a few players with the wages we save. This is a question I have got for everybody on here out of 10 how much does Aston Villa Entertain you when you watch them?

Why would you sell Lansbury.



21 Dec 2017 14:39:46
5/ 10 for entertainment
This figure will not improve under Bruce in my opinion,
I am behind Bruce even though not a supporter of him as a manager for my club,
I'm not happy of some of the young players not being given a chance for a run in side,

1st of all chris, I just don't think Lansbury has had the impact we wanted him to he don't set up or score enough goals for a attacking Midfielder. Now Mainbob do you think Bruces style of play can get us promoted this year and would you keep Bruce if he doesn't get Aston Villa up this season? I don't think its Bruces fault but he does need to be better in the transfer market. people like bjarnsson, lansbury, james, bree even conor, hourilane an hogan an Whelan they are not influencing games like they should be the odd good games not good enough we need to be more consistent if we want to go up.

Lansburys been injured all season and got us a point against Leeds away on his first game back from injury, sell him and use who as back up?



21 Dec 2017 19:36:38
I see WTW's point about Lansbury but he's definitely worth keeping around. There's proper deadwood to shift but it's easier said than done. A run of games with Davis and Hogan up front and not just 1 game will see us back to winning ways, 2nd place is up for grabs, go for it

UTV.

Buy better quality he was dropped by Bruce before he was injured if you remember when he was playing regular for Villa before he didn't make assists or score his a attacking midfielder who does set up or score. only my view not saying your wrong Chris just doesn't do enough for me there's better out there.



21 Dec 2017 23:07:16
Buy better? But you just said we’ve got no money to spend?



21 Dec 2017 23:54:47
At the moment there's no funds to spend but if we sold four or five of the dead wood there would be. We need players who are gona be 8 out of 10 most weeks I say lansburys a 6 out of 10. Somebody like Woods or Bannan would be great signings for us.



22 Dec 2017 08:48:17
Sell four or five players and only replace one of them, what about the rest? This master plan doesn’t have much thought behind it does it.



22 Dec 2017 08:57:34
We have been saying for years that we should get rid of the dead wood but there still here some on really big wages,
We have made poor signing and now we are stuck with them till there contract run out,



22 Dec 2017 09:00:27
Woods and Bannan would be good signings, I agree. But the elephant in the room your ignoring is, we can’t buy them, we have to borrow them. The way this system works is they are loaned to get matches, recover from injuries, or as the club they are in can’t sell them.

It’s great saying names, (I my self think we should look at Messi and Ronaldo a half season loan, we could buy them if we get promoted. ) the club that players are at will not loan any member of their 1st team playing staff. If you want these players, you have to buy, with an amount they can’t say no to.
So then you come to fact do they players that are available for loan, (fringe players) improve on what’s already there?
The answer is no.

if we go for prem youngsters, they have no experience, and are they better than are own young players? No
If we go for champ squad members, players who are not good enough to play for our rivals, are they want we want? No
So you look abroad. takes months for players to bed into the English game. ask sherwood, or garde, so that’s another no.

We need to see this season out, play to what we have, and use our own reasources. Youth.
I personally think we will sign 1 player on loan in jan, an argentine from Leicester.
