Stephen Naismith has become available for 2million due to administrators duff & Phelps activating a clause in his contract. If Lambert was to join us I'd expect naismith to be one of his targets. {Ed007's Note - Everton have supposedly got a deal for Naismith in place.}
Naismith will join he was a target of the last manager i'm starting to think the board like scottish managers and Lambert's only getting 20m to spend and we all know with the amount of players weve lost we need to spend 30-40m to get in enough players to sustain a good cup run and challenge for european football again.
Hopefully he'll sell Warnock, collins, Dunne, N'Zogbia, Ireland and Hutton and bring in some quality youngsters along with someone like Joey Barton/ James Milner as we need a presence in Midfield which we lack at the min as the defence just get pummelled when we lose position and granted the Youngsters we have in defence could do a better job.
And hopefully Makoun gets a fair crack as with his CL experience we should try and keep him.
Ireland & N'Zog? Go away! they are the heart of Villa now!
I'd rather support Blues than let Barton enter Villa Park.
Did i really just read that someone hopes we get Joey Barton. The mind boggles!
JOEY "LIABILTY" BARTON, are you actully serious?
He is banned for a third of the season, what's the point?
I didn't say i hope we sign Joey barton i said someone like him or Milner as we need someone with presence in midfield which we lack
NO Petrov
Ireland is inconsistant
N'Zogbia isn't fit to wear the shirt I'd rather play Albrighton,Bannan,Agbonlahor or Holman as he has no flare when expected to produce the performance's which Young and Downing did
No one will want your over rated players and nor will lambert, ireland is on 75k a week for being a bench warmer and no clubs will want to buy him or N'zogbia, Dunne, Collins, because they are crap and on high wages. In doing this your club will lose money increase debt and find it hard to bring in players like Grant Holt because he's on a different scale to ireland and will want more money than him. As for Lambert good luck, but the grass isn't always greaner on the other side.
Didn't that 'bench warmer' play nearly every game last season?
Lets be honest Villa need a creative midfielder to play alongside Makoun? as the holding midfielder giving the likes of Albrighton Ireland, Bannan, Holman, Herd to attack.
We also need a decent 2nd striker
also a replacement for Hutton,Collins and Dunne
Makoun is awesome. We never gave him a chance. I just hope he comes back from his injury.
Even if Villa were interested in Barton,
1: He is banned for nearly 1/3 of the season
2: His wages are high supposedly over 75k, Now i'm sure we could afford that but I think it would be invested more wisely
If any of you had any sense at all, you would support the blueboys anyway
