Badger trust me no villa signing at a All

And to make things even worst west brom have bid for hoolahan aswel. looks like its going to be another nervy end of season. most the clubs below us have got players in today so let's hope the team can pull together again and keep us out of the relegation zone

Ssn Hoolahan to Baggies on loan?

Norwich turn down cash for Hoolahan but accept a loan offer. If this happens then it shows how pathetic Norwich are. Wouldbe embarrassed to be a Canary!

Lets hope next season there isn't villa fans like YOU. all teams have bought below us, so what! we are better than the teams below us. Lambert is doing a great job, he said he would improve us ever year and he is. it would of taken another 5 games for us to get to where we are now if it was last season. now either wrap up or go and follow SHA.

Well we did say if Wes left us it wouldn't be to Villa, the West Brom deal is not agreed either

Cba. gow is lambert improving us every year? wer lucky to be in tenth place and trust me if we finish in top ten I will aggree that there has been improvement we have the worst midfield in the prem and have done for last couple of seasons. fact. and without improving we will be dragged further dow

Worst midfield in the prem? Delph has been phenomenal this season, and still has a lot of potential, and may get an England call up after the world cup, Westwood had a good season last season hasn't been the best this season but has a lot of potential and could become our creative midfielder, El Ahmadi is having his best season with us this season and still has a chance to get better. Sylla is a solid rotation option hard tackler like Delph and has no fear. Gardner has a bright future if he stops getting injured and should be in the squad in the coming weeks, Johnson is also a good young talent but I think he's been playing for our reserves for too many years and will probably be sold in the coming years, Herd can play in a lot of positions but his best is probably behind the two CMs where Westwood currently plays, and he's a decent rotation option, Bacuna N'Zogbia Clark and Tonev can also play in CM and all are decent there, so for you to say we have had the worst midfield in the past few seasons is an absolute joke, I agree we need to sign one, but we definitely don't have the worst.

Mate on paper qpr's team is better than villas. Some of our 1st teamers like baker Clark El hamadi an few others on bench wouldn't get in any other prem team lamberts made some shocking signings. I wonder if houllier was still here what kind of side we would of had

Villa to sign Messi! Just made that up! I went to the same media school as king villa!

Clark and Baker aren't 1st team players. They are only playing because Okore is injured, Guzan Bertrand Okore Vlaar Lowton Delph Westwood El Ahmadi/Gardner Agbonlahor Weimann Benteke is a solid team and we don't really need to panic buy anyone, next season we might have Guzan Bertrand (Open to a permanent deal and we will have the money at that time) Okore Vlaar Lowton Delph Westwood Gardner/New CM Weimann Agbonlahor/Grealish (Amazing potential) Benteke with good rotation options such as Clark Baker Luna Sylla Kozak Helenius Albrighton Bacuna etc.

Deadline day and there's always someone who panics and signs anything that moves regardless of how good or bad they are - this year it seems to be Fulham and Palace who have brought in about 8 players each. While I wouldn't advocate us doing that, who have we brought in today? - absolutely no one. Surely Lerner could have bankrolled one decent signing to get the fans excited, preferably a midfielder who doesn't play for Norwich. I have never known a more boring deadline day from our point of view.
Clarrie Blue.

Our team has plenty of room for improvements and is far from a solid team. We should always be strengthening. I'm beginning to worry that some villa fans are becoming happy with mediocracy.

I think it's more like Mr. Lerner who is settling for mediocrity and without any financial support from the top the Manager is having to do the same.
With all the money washing around at the moment in football, particularly in the Premier League it wouldn't have hurt the Chairman to have given Lambert a decent amount of cash and told him to buy a really good player to ignite the season and get the fans excited but no - he couldn't be bothered.
I actually feel sorry for the Manager. Lerner obviously feels we are safe from relegation this season so to hell with the 36 to 40,000 crowds that are turning up every week. What do they matter? I used to have a lot of time for Lerner but not any more.
Clarrie Blue.

On a different note, which three teams would other supporters like to see relegated this season?
My three would be, in no particular order Norwich City because they are a small minded bunch of country bumpkins with ideas above their station
Stoke City because they are a vile club who everyone hates who should have gone down years ago and
West Brom because they are West Brom. What other reason is needed?
Clarrie Blue.

I think Norwich, because I see them like Wigan, should of gone down years ago and somehow keep scraping relegation, Stoke because out of the bottom 5 I think they have the weakest squad considering all of the other clubs have either strengthened or currently have a better squad than them, and any of the 3 teams that came up last year, Hull, Palace, and Cardiff, although I want all of them to stay up as they have made good signings and have good squads, I think that Fulham West Ham and Sunderland have much stronger squads.

How can you say Norwich because they should have gone down years ago? We owe so much to Paul Lambert, he is the reason we are premier league, and we have only been here a couple of years! if we manage to keep in the prem then we do deserve to be here. I am was gutted to loose Lambert as a manager an suggest you get behind him as he will eventually bring you the success you all desire. 99% of Norwich fans wish he was still in charge of us.

The striker Fulham signed is class

My word there are many regular posters on the site who should hang their heads they know they are listen guys you've been found out all full of red bull****!

Hoolahan 100% staying at Norwich. This was the only signing lambert was really going for. Don't expect any ins at VP today, only outs.

Well as Norwich weren't going to do business, why didn't villa just move on, instead of dragging something out that was never going to happen

Lambert is a person if he thought norwich would change their mind and sell him to us! I stil hope he gets a decent midfielder in but not holding my breath. think its time for pl and lerner to piss off

I wouldn't say that Lambert should 'piss off', we are in 10th place and much better off this season than last season. We aren't that far off 8th place either! I think that Lerner is trying to sell us.

Yep I agree come the summer I think we will be sold

We will be sold in the summer, he lost interest in us, just like the Cleveland browns

I hope he does sell up but only to someone decent who will spend the money needed to get us into Europe.
Not sure I can see it happening though.
Clarrie Blue.

I think the media was trying to do the Hoolahan deal more then Villa. I think we tried to get him on the cheap didn't work and the media just went to town with it, knowing all the history behind the two clubs.

Clarrie blue,
That's the worry, if Lerner does sell then let's hope he sells to someone who has respect for our club an fans and not just looking for another toy or to promote other business or looking to drain the club of its assets like Gaydemak an Tan

Some fans think that another owner will solve all our problems but they don't think what if we get the wrong person who has no good intentions.

Just about The only good thing Doug Ellis did for villa was find a good owner in Lerner, I hope Lerner will do the same when the time comes.
