Clint dempesy joins tOttenham instead of the villa for less money..??? What is lambert doing??

Agree6 Disagree10

Our signing are shocking! I can see Bent leaving if we don't start spending some big money on big players !come n lambert buy big league not championship!!please

Agree6 Disagree10

A team gets about £5m extra per season for every league place they climb.
So we finished 16th last season, Say we finish 10th this coming season - thats £30m in the bank (minus wages etc.)
So next summer, we'll be able to build in better quality.

Agree1 Disagree7

Wind your necks in fickle villains pl's signed who he wanted and I'm sure all his signing will be good in the end what villa needed is youngster's who wanna play good football and not over paid pre madonna's some of the best teams in EUROPE built teams from lesser known teams and players and turned them into superstar's look how long it took moyes but top 4 this season good football with average players never spent big and look what passion there fan's have and most of ours think were Barcelona Rome wasn't a built in a day so get behind you team up the villa

Agree9 Disagree3

Get a grip - decent set of signings on a good budget ( more than Liverpool ) that has improved the squad, will force competition for places, is sustainable and gives us a fighting chance of survival

Agree8 Disagree4

This might be behind getting Bentke, it will give Villa an opportunity to sell Bent in January if he performs well. £18/20m for Bent would more than balance the books and keep the ugly sisters happy. We must learn to think like an accountant to comprehend the financial dealings at VP. Bents wages would also balance out the wages being paid to all of the new signings.

Agree1 Disagree9

We offered 5mil for dempsey tottenham offered 6 how did they offer less money? also dempsey didn't want to come to villa so it's got nothing to do with lambert!

Agree5 Disagree6

How can you say the signings are shocking when no one has seen them.play yet?? At least give em a fighting chance

Agree10 Disagree2

You complain when we sign big players with no sell on value and ruin our wage budget we then do the opposite and you still complain. How about you give the players a chance to fit in and get playing then judge some of the best players come from lower leagues Barry,Bale,Oxlade Chamberlain,Ashley Young,Chris Smalling and leighton baines to name a few. All good footballers start off somewhere we are just getting them before they are standard overpriced british players. Just back the team the players and the manager

Agree11 Disagree2

Darren Bent was at his best when he played for Charlton surrounded by so called small name players, so don't kid yourself. Posting grumbles are wasting my time reading them, let alone your time trying to be pundits, end up looking more like Muppets.

Agree4 Disagree2

Faulkner and Lerner aren't letting him you buffoon. Why else is he resorting to lower league players and players from abroad?

Agree0 Disagree7

Lambert has said Lerner offered him MORE money!
(yes i didn't believe it either lads!)
Bent is STAYING! Villa don't need money , we've more than balanced the books & we're now operating on a loss of around £3.7m per year!
Which is nothing really! Sell Warnock & Hutton & we're operating on a profit - thats how financially well we are doing!.
And we offered £7m for dempsey not £5m ;)

Agree5 Disagree3

A team gets about £5m extra per season for every league place they climb.
So we finished 16th last season, Say we finish 10th this coming season - thats £30m in the bank (minus wages etc.)
So next summer, we'll be able to build in better quality.

DO your homework the league pay 800K per place a team finishes on top of the TV rights

Agree2 Disagree1

We offered 5mil for dempsey tottenham offered 6 how did they offer less money? also dempsey didn't want to come to villa so it's got nothing to do with lambert!
----------------------------------------
we offered 5 m up front with 2m in add ons he went to spurs for 5m and liverpool offered 4m

Aston villa are on the verge of signing crewe skipper ashley westwood

Believable4 Unbelievable2

Ive been telling all of you for weeks we wont sign any big names cause we are not a big club,sell up lerner and take faulkner with please!!

Agree2 Disagree5

Benkeke at villa park and 2 sign soon

Agree5 Disagree0

I got disagree's 2 weeks ago for predicting a season of attacks on lerner and faulker... can i get some more now I am proved correct. Lets be fair lads, we are re-building wont be spending loads (wisely in my opinion) it will be touch and go this season but lets deal with mediocrity, we are very very used to it

Agree3 Disagree2

Villa are going down !!Paul lambert has got no experience with big name players &all his nobody signing will not even get a look in over our overpaid egos already in our team!we can't attract an quality players

Agree5 Disagree7

Lambert will only play the players who are in the best form I.E Guzan is playing in goal tomorrow cause of his clean sheet in the week.

Agree2 Disagree0

Nearly all the so called BIG teams have been watching Ashley Westwood ,its a pity we struck first ! He's a tidy little player ,so just get behind Lambert .......... he knows what he's doing ! How many big time charlies did we have in the team in 80-81 when we won the old first division ?

Agree2 Disagree1

Most the fan base wernt alive to even watch the 80-81 season of glory.

Agree0 Disagree2

What sort of club are we supporting? Our rivals that we should be matching QPR, Fulham, Sunderland, Southampton and Stoke are all adding "quality" to thier squads. AVFC bid accepted and player says f u I dont want to play for you even though there is not a bid from any other clubs. Worrying isn't it? Players actually saying that they dont like Villa. We can get some "unknowns" but where is the big bang that we all want? Seems like our powder is wet through and we cant even fire blanks. However I am still hoping that a surprise might come our way. Owen is still without a club but so is my old Mom!!

Believable5 Unbelievable8

In Lambert we trust.

Agree6 Disagree5

Even Brighton bought better than us

Agree2 Disagree5

WAIT AND SEE

Every young player Lambert has brought has been highly rated as break through players for the future

Agree2 Disagree1

Sorry for the cop and paste but here it is

Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert is doing a good impression of pretending he never wanted Clint Dempsey in the first place. Lambert insists he has faith in hungry and young players from lower divisions to revive the club's fortunes. Lambert said: "It is my decision. Football decisions are mine and I will take responsibility on everything. I know from experience if you don't have the hunger as a footballer, then there is no point in playing the game. With people from the lower leagues, you are giving people opportunities. I have total confidence in them to go and do the business. You trust them to go and do it and they are hungry to do it.

If you buy only Championship players guess were you end up....

Good luck fighting relegation

Villa never had any intention of signing Denpsey, just a smoke screen to make it look like we were thinking big! He is destined for Liverpool.. We are looking to survive this season with lower level or inexperienced players who haven't played in the prem. unfortunately I fever for our prem future. Lerner to go please.

Believable4 Unbelievable6

As usual. Everyone else is bringing in quality and what are we doing. Nothing. A championship left back and an unproven striker. I hope we make a couple of decent last minute signings but I got a feeling that we will have to make do with the poor squad we have. Everyone strengthening but us again. Are we sure our chairman is a billionaire?

Agree4 Disagree5

Sort of strange, puddles have not gone in for Dempsey so what is going on. Could be that Villa have put in a bid and are actually waiting to see what other bids go in for him. This means that Fulham will still have a bid on the books. Bit of subterfuge going on, possibly by both teams.

Agree1 Disagree1

Dempsey IS joining Villa IF Liverpool don't agree a fee with Fulham! (depending on contract talks though).
My sources indicate Villa have concluded a deal for Benteke in total worth £10.6m after a change of heart by Genk.
NUFC without Tiote & Villa with Bent,Benteke & Dempsey - quality!

Up The Villaa!

Agree4 Disagree4

Gabby,Bent & Benteke , you think we'll struggle with that?
We'll be rocket fire with that!

Agree5 Disagree0

Even if they do sign for the villa they can't play this weekend as they have to have been signed and registered before 12 noon on friday. any players signed after 12 noon will have to wait for their debut.

Bennett is set to start against newcastle as edna stevens is injured

Agree2 Disagree1

What no Dempsey....lol, obviously he has set his sights higher than Paul Lambert did.

Believable4 Unbelievable5

Smokescreen for Fulham to get as much out of liverpool as possible, Paul faulkner is very good friends with most of Fulhams board this deal never had any legs

Agree4 Disagree2
