Agree with 95%, but would also like to see Nathan Redmond swapped with Fonz, and Lukaku should be a permanent purchase rather than loan, give CFC Given as their backup, plus try to get in Alan Dzagoev this is an investment therefore the supposed Ł20mill should not be a restriction or a factor and our slaes would also bring in the right level of funding.
Including my suggestions & yours they are all football players rather than players of football, we can then adopt free flowing football but with a bit of grit (Dembelle in the middle would help), with Lindergard we'd have a keeper that can command his box rather than Given one that refuses to come for crosses an average shot stopper (past his best proven in the euros) that's the uncertainty that passes thru our back four & others who loft the ball up field at every opportunity not allowing our players to play but chase the ball and adopt the same nervous attitude when in possession (Lewis Hamilton would not be the same driver If handed a stolen car being chased by the police in streets Mumbai, his instincts would be suppressed) ,
Gabby a great servant to the club but will not elevate the squad past their proven inefficiencies last season (the chips were down and they left the Casino), Bent Overrated, not enough In game contribution, Dunne/Collins/Warnock/Hutton/Albrighton mediocre at best definitely should not be part of the Villa FC in 2012/2013 season and weâd save on wages, some people say their influence of experience is needed, I say definitely not from players who convey an attitude of desperation on the ball riddled with mistakes and own goals/penalties which infects other players such as Albrighton âshould I attack or should I kick it up field before I loose possession & get shouted at by the senior playersâ. This was masked when other players such as Young/Milner/ & even an average Downing were here as they encouraged that sort of enterprise
Matt Phillips/T Ince are the future get them now embrace/nurture their qualities donât ruin it by having them play with the old failed guard.
Caruthers is shear Genius and has done his apprenticeship with both Arsenal & Villa this is his time

Lets just say - that is suicide! we'd get relegated!
You are WAY off the mark!
Given,Ireland,Gabby & N'Zog aren't leaving!
Agree12

Why don't we just sell everyone then?

People should really lay off Albrighton. He's had a bad season but under a defensive manager like McLeish, that can be forgiven. He was class under Houllier and I think that he should be given another chance under PL. UTV
Agree11
Disagree4
That would be suicide, Ireland has got to stay he's our best player!, play him in the pocket behind the striker and Bent will be banging in the goals.Nzogbia will come good this year, Dunne is still a quality defender and Gabby will come good again given the right man management.
Agree7
Disagree2
Like we'd sign lukaku, he cost chelsea 18 mil
Agree5
Disagree3
N'Zog will work well with attacking football, he had to go back into a more defensive role to help out Warnock last season.
Without Given we would have been relegated - Lambert plays rotation & even Holt got rotated for Norwich!
Given might need to fight more for his spot if we get in another keeper.
Though he could inspire Siegrist who is the future #1 in my mind.

Lukaku woudnt come to villa Chelsea signed himf or 18mill
Agree2

Totally agree with getting rid of Given,Dunne,Hutton,Warnock,Gabby or Bent,Nzogbia all these players were in the 1st team last season and look where we finished.
To the guy who said we would have been relegated without Given is nuts, Given plus the defence where mostly responsible for the decline + AlexMcduff.
Lindergaard would be a perfect accusation , Carruthers a definite 1st team players and would easily replace nzogbia, Matt Phillips & Tom Ince were made for this club ,Haidara & Salassi not bad, I'd give my season ticket away just so I could buy another one

What complete rubbish are we living in cloud cuckoo land

Before you get rid of decent players who had a bad season, just wait to see what Lambert can do. At NCFC he got the best out of a Championship squad. Your players are (90% of them anyway) better than NCFC's. Lambert would get your current squad to finish top half, no problem.
It is not his style to have a total clear-out from day 1. He will add steel to the midfield and allow the attacking players to play. Lambert will "add a few to help the current group out" (that is his favourite transfer window phrase...)
He had been looking abroad with Norwich towards the end of the season, so expect a few from Germany and France perhaps. Maybe Snodgrass, Gunter and Naughton too.
Good luck Villa and OTBC!

I heard of a possible Ł14m bid but would he leave the champions for a "new" Villa? maybe new "team captain"?
Agree7
Disagree5
Thats rubbish he would not come back to us we cant afford his wages
Agree9
Disagree1
We are more likely to get Barry
Agree6
Disagree6
Barry was more of a key player for man city and played a lot more games than milner so out of the two if we were going to get one of them it would more likely be milner
Agree2
Disagree0
Milner is an awful player - his performances in the Euros back this up.
Agree2
Disagree7
What a pathetic post to say milner is awful, he's a top player for city and england
Agree5

Milner has been offered 60 000 a week and the captains arm band and his agent is set to meet up with randy lerner on monday to finalise as milner was caught leavin the hotel on firday with his agent getting in a blacked out car with his agent and paul lamberts agent only speculationn no hypee

this is what i would like to see at villa, sell dunne(too slow) warnock(too many mistakes) hutton(just s**t) ireland(doesnt want to play for us) fonzy(loan, needs game time to progress). bring in shawcross(stoke) naughton(spurs) or clyne(palace) french lb debuchy or anita(ajax) adam(liverpoo) sturridge(chelsea) and a back up keeper like butland from the scum, given not ready to step down. we have a lot of quality due to come through properly now like gardner, carruthers, lichaj, stevens etc. what do you think people?
Believable7
Unbelievable5
Ireland's our best player so no way should we get rid of him. Wouldn't mind shawcross, naughton and sturridge
Agree9
Disagree2
Sorry but you are off your head.
Debuchy? seriously? he'd turned down Newcastle.
Clyne & Naughton - maybe.
Shawcross? he is a dirty tackler - just as bad as any player called alan hutton.
Agree1

Anita,Naughton,Adam and sturrage but I'd rather Huth to shawcross

james milner could be coming back to the villa
Believable8
Unbelievable13
Doubt it but he would be the best signing ever in my opinion, got so much to prove after two years of bench warming, should never have left, best player I've seen since god

Not any more.

Milner played 26 games in the league alone last season. champions league football next season and he is a regular at the Etihad. No way would he head back to the Villa.

Not if he's got any sense he wont

Milner is part of a City squad that got them to this level, But the arabs will just keep on spending to take them to a higher level so Milner will be surplus along with the likes of Kolarov, Djeko, De Jong, Barry (next season), Adebayor, Tevez, Johnson. Once the cash point opened at City, a very average middle of the road club could only attract slightly better players at that time (Bridge, Given, Bellamy, Santa Cruz, Boyata), As they began to improve and climbed the League and better players and agents began to hear about the riches available, the next wave came in to take them to the current level (Milner, Johnson, De jong, Djeko) Their problem is getting rid as the wages are so ridiculous that no other club can afford them never mind pay them - very dangerous business model in today's climate. Wish it would all blow up in their smarmy little faces {Ed043's Note - this is very true that man city will be looking to get rid of some players so looking to sign the likes of adam johnson fairly cheaply is possible for a good young player, however all these players like you said are on high wages and after such a cut don in the wages at villa its unlikey to see any big names like adebayor joing villa at the moment}

papers today say we're linked with Ruddy, i'd take that!
Believable9
Unbelievable6
10 million and you can have him, doesnt Lambert have any original transfer targets of his own, or just trying the old villa routine of buying success and failing? {Ed007's Note - You're an idiot. Trolling is not acceptable on these sites. You are now blocked and will remain so until I decide otherwise, don't hold your breath on that one though.}
