Harry redknapp the new blues manager. Not as confident about beating them now.
1.) 18 Apr 2017 10:04:36
Always gets a reaction when he goes somewhere but only so much of a reaction you can get out of poor players.
2.) 18 Apr 2017 12:45:37
Unfortunately pretty much the same squad what pushin for promotion when the last manager had a reaction from them.
3.) 18 Apr 2017 14:13:56
very true, hopefully 4 months of nothing will stop them remembering how to play.
4.) 18 Apr 2017 20:16:08
We'll win comfortably
You can't polish a turd.
5.) 18 Apr 2017 23:14:17
You talk sense mendax, hope your right about this one. Struggling to see it being comfortable now given no Kodija or Taylor, 1 option at left back and he is an absolute nightmare.
6.) 19 Apr 2017 08:58:21
Its a Derby anything can happen. U think we'll scrape a 1-0win though, As it happens I think harry an blues are a good fit because I dislike both of them.
21 Jan 2017 15:56:10
Rumours flying around that the Rhodes deal is still on, especially with McCormack going back to Fulham. also Scott hogan left out of the Brentford squad maybe something going on there?
1.) 21 Jan 2017 16:23:33
rohdes will sign by Tuesday. mccormack is off
2.) 21 Jan 2017 17:38:13
Steve Bruce just said there's no truth whatsoever in McCormack leaving, hmmm kingvilla or the villa manager?
3.) 21 Jan 2017 20:31:25
Kingvilla everyday of the week
06 Jan 2017 19:31:21
Rumours flying around that Bruce wants to loan delph till the end of the season. Personally I think it would be a great move and if he helps us get promoted then I will forgive the snake. Thoughts people?
{Ed025's Note - thats a terrible thing to say...about snakes smudge.. :)
1.) 06 Jan 2017 20:09:47
If he come back he would undoubtedly be the best midfielder in the league, fans in the ground might boo him first time his announced but after a few wins nothing would be said. Internet fans and key board warriors would hate it, you'd see snake emojis everywhere. If he said the right things i. e. "Yea I left to play in the champions league and challenge for trophies but it hasn't worked out that way, I regret the way in which I left" etc everything would be fine.
2.) 06 Jan 2017 20:18:10
Not with me mate.
3.) 06 Jan 2017 20:27:48
If it meant getting back into the prem I would sell my soul to the devil. would be a great move if it did come off
Exactly the type of player we need
4.) 06 Jan 2017 20:49:45
We had Delph on the books for six years and we still struggled, the bloke scored three goals in six years, and yes we do need a box to box player, Not him.
If I came out with the bullshit like he did to my wife I would be kicked out end of, lies of that magnitude not tolerated in my book.
5.) 06 Jan 2017 20:59:20
Yea Dave I was gutted when he left, but there's no doubting with that 1 signing our midfield would go from one of the worst to one of the best in the championship.
6.) 06 Jan 2017 21:02:21
Delph was he not player towards the end who was trying week in week out. end of the day it wasn't all bullshit, I do think he has a fondness for villa but end of the day money talks and he wanted to do the best for him and his family. Sure you would do the same.
7.) 06 Jan 2017 21:34:04
Exactly smudge, hated the way he left but no doubt there was loads of stuff going on behind closed doors, why did he have an 8mil buy out clause fgs! But doubt it will happen, if it does brilliant
8.) 06 Jan 2017 21:45:42
I had the chance 15 years ago smudge, and no I did not do the same, I stayed put and glad I did, believe me money is not everything surely you don`t need me to tell you that.
We can go on all day mate, I would prefer not to have him back, that’s just me, if it happens so be it.
9.) 06 Jan 2017 21:49:42
You lot have surprised the bejaysus out of me lol! Didn't expect so much love for Delph. If it happens, we become a better team, simples
UTV
10.) 06 Jan 2017 21:53:11
Apparently villa have categorically denied they've enquirer bout delph. Be more than happy with Lansbury who I think is a quality player would love us to try and get will Hughes from derby.
11.) 06 Jan 2017 23:21:18
I believe that Delph is not looking for big salary to go on loan to us. He will just accept his usual 30 pieces of silver.
{Ed025's Note - love it irish..
12.) 06 Jan 2017 23:32:56
First Bruce the blue nose as manager ( yes I accept he is turning the club around) . Next Delph on loan. What next Brady and OSullivan given seats on villa board?
I flew over for the Wigan match and was chatting to bloke next to me. Thirty thousand there approx apart from the 12 Wigan supporters and everyone would give a piece of their soul to run onto that pitch for villa. Not for 20/ 30/ 40+ grand a week. For free. For the honour. That scrote Delph was our captain and the mocks us with that other scrote sterling drawing snakes on their arms.
{Ed025's Note - i cant argue with that mate..
13.) 06 Jan 2017 23:22:19
Say the right things?
Like he did before!?
I wouldn't want him near the club again. Poison.
Would rather stay in champ than have to hear his name sang, or be made to feel I owe the snake anything.
14.) 06 Jan 2017 23:00:35
Fabian delph reminds me of robin van persie-spent years getting injured, started to come towards the end of his contract, has a great season and then decides slither off, hw won't come back to us, that's his agent drumming up business to get him a gig at another premiership club needing re-inforcements, i reckon palace with big sam, let sam massage his ego, or more appropriately, polish that turd!
15.) 07 Jan 2017 00:53:12
Although I get where your coming from, I cannot believe you'd rather stay in the championship than get promoted with him on loan flackie, come on, as much as we wish it wasn't football is a business, the way he left was awful but no one can say if their on 30k a week and someone comes and says we'll give you 100, they wouldn't take it. If he came back (not that I think it will happen in a million years) he would get boo'd for a few games then after that no one would care, half the people go to see us win and as long as that's happening no one cares who's playing and the other half are too pissed to know who's who! Any player who would get us out or atleast help get us out of this division and back in the one we should be in is welcome in my eyes, come in do the job and if you don't wanna stay jog on.
16.) 07 Jan 2017 10:02:48
Agree with you 100% Flackie. Personally I couldn't watch a villa team with him playing in it. Would be like breaking bread with a bloke that had been riding your missus lol. Neither can be trusted. Delph would ride us at the first opportunity.
17.) 07 Jan 2017 11:24:24
I'm deadly serious mate.
Integrity is important to me mate. And of all the things players have done over last few years. to come and commit to a club, to then days later stab then in the back was the worse.
He is a disgrace.
18.) 07 Jan 2017 13:48:05
It is hard to argue with that because I was genuinely gutted when he left and the way it all happened. If he had just left? None of the BS that went on just come to the end of the season a left, would you have him back?
19.) 07 Jan 2017 14:09:51
If he hadn't lied. said how he was staying, and left.
I'd have him back in a heart beat.
Let's be honest he was one of the best players to put on a villa shirt. he would head and shoulders be best player in championship.
But what does it tell fans, youth players, the guys who brought his shirt after his statement, I got one for both my kids.
He is a liar, with no scruples. he takes takes takes, with out the giving.
02 Oct 2016 13:03:52
Rdm has been sacked. Club will announce tomorrow. Should get David Wagner from Huddersfield, I know there top but money talks and we will double his wages.
28 Aug 2016 11:29:21
We should try and sign chris Burke from forest, quality player adomah would give us great width and get Jordan Rhodes along with McCormack would get the goals to shoot us up the table. 41 games to go, keep the faith. we just need to start taking our chances and kill teams off.
1.) 28 Aug 2016 13:40:07
Hi name is Oliver Burke.
Chris Burke is ex Blues and plays for also for Forest but on loan at Rotherham,
2.) 28 Aug 2016 14:44:52
man u and bayern Munich are looking at him so I'd say a no go.

United and Bayern are interested in the papers don't mean anything, worth a try.
5.) 28 Aug 2016 18:34:26
Ok his signed for some newly promoted team in Germany, very strange lol, atleast we don't have to play against him next game.
6.) 28 Aug 2016 19:29:57
Just signed for Red Bull (RB Leipzig) for around £13mil.

What's peoples views on mason greenwood?
If Man Utd don't keep him would you like him at the villa? The boy knows where the goal is and we could do with another striker
1.) 17 Aug 2023 05:31:37
He’s a (potentially) world class player but an absolute rhymes with runt so ready made to go to the Nose

15 Aug 2023 23:31:15
Would anyone take a chance on Podence from wolves
Apparently he is available for 12 million as he only has 1 year left on his contract
1.) 16 Aug 2023 00:54:11
Defo quality player
15 Aug 2023 00:17:09
Todays football is all about beating the press and breaking the lines.I feel that is something our midfield is lacking.
The only one who can carry the ball with purpose is Jacob Ramsey.don't get me wrong we have good neat and tidy midfielders who are technically gifted but lack that threat going forward.that's why I think we should get coutinho off the books and go all in on Morgan gibbs white who would give us that something different?
14 Aug 2023 22:14:53
After watching wolves tonight they have a few players who I wouldn't mind at the villa
Pedro Neto is a talented boy
The left back looks impressive
Even Semedo looked good tonight
1.) 14 Aug 2023 23:29:17
Smudge, watched most of the game tonight, with a decent striker, Wolves would of walked that . Got to give it Garry, he’s changed that in four days .
2.) 14 Aug 2023 23:57:05
Why would they offload any of their players when they looked fantastic against one of the world’s most expensive clubs. Just waiting for NeveseveN to pop in his two Penneth ?
3.) 15 Aug 2023 00:04:06
Like them or loath them Wolves looked good against a poor Man U side and were unlucky to lose. They certainly have some talented players that i would definitely like in our team.
25 Jul 2023 16:33:17
Me and my mate were having a discussion at work today about Emi Martinez and I said I would take £60-£80 milllion for him and get David de gea on a free .he didn't agree
What do you guys think?
1.) 25 Jul 2023 17:31:29
If he wants to stay I would rather keep him but if he wants to go then £80 million would be the minimum I would accept given when Kepa went to Chelsea for something like £72 million a few years ago the market has expanded since then and Martinez is a better keeper in my view. I wouldn’t mind De Gea personally, a golden gloves winner he is clearly a good keeper. That said however he isn’t Emery’s type of keeper, Emery likes a keeper who is good with the ball at his feet particularly as we are going to play with a high line, and that isn’t De Gea’s forte. If Martinez goes I think Emery is more likely to go for the Moroccan keeper Bounou.
2.) 25 Jul 2023 22:37:38
I find it odd in these times that a ball playing keeper is a thing. For example at Villa I’d class all our centre halves as ball playing centre halves, wouldn’t (generally) it be better just to have a keeper that stops goals from going in, and if he has the ball, give it to the ball playing centre halves, it’s always baffled me ??♂️

3.) 26 Jul 2023 06:20:26
I know what your saying Allstar and I have sympathy with your view but I guess we would be described as old fashioned. But having said that if you are going to play a high line then you are susceptible to balls over the top and to be fair we saw some of that the other night, and I don’t think Emery likes the approach where the keeper just hoofs it anywhere.
22 Jul 2023 20:58:58
True
He has signed a five year deal….confirmed
20 Jul 2023 20:21:32
All over social media and sky sports
20 Jul 2023 18:27:19
Diaby has signed for villa
17 Jul 2023 15:05:17
Personal terms already agreed with us
Deal will be done by end of this week.
£50 million plus £5million add ins.
4 year deal.
13 Jul 2023 19:54:41
They are holding out for 60 million…deal will be done around £50-£55 million
According to Fabrizio Romana ( very reliable journalist) Diaby has already told Leverkusen he wants to join villa and personal terms have already been agreed
18 Aug 2023 13:15:29
A few people have mentioned his name Jonathan David would be the one but need to move quick as I’m sure spurs are looking at him
16 Aug 2023 22:56:16
Thought he looked really good tonight
Decent signing based on that performance
13 Aug 2023 12:39:55
I agree whackattack
If your going to play that high of a line surely you need defenders with exceptional pace …our defenders just aren’t quick enough to cope if the opposition break through
10 Aug 2023 16:37:39
De gea will end up there now his a free agent
12 Jul 2023 21:46:02
The big difference I see between Bailey and Diaby is that Newcastle, Arsenal, Man Utd etc etc weren’t interested in Bailey but apparently they are for Diaby.
That tells me he is a better player with higher potential
