villa

Not a supporter but I have always liked the club . I'd echo that they will struggle this year without at least 3 key signings and a further 2 squad signings. Last year they got found out basically because they didn't have a squad, only used 21 players throughout the campaign I believe, and they've since lost Laursen permanently and Barry as well, probably the two players they could least afford to, at least in my eyes anyway.

If we're talking replacements I'd sign Richard Dunne, Fabian Delph, Alan Smith (versatile but depending on price, loan deal perhaps), Sebastian Bassong and Lee Cattermole if the money is at Villa for those players

Echoing a fellow Leeds supporter on the BBC news comments ...You got a quality player there!

Villa need 2 proper centre half - they very poor today ....... distin and hangeland badly needed

great result against pool hope we can get win tonight in europe

Villa out - they won tonight 2-1, but out on away goals. They were leading 2-0, but conceded with about 15 mins left.

awful result for them, two good signings today though in dunne and warnock. still need a striker in my opinion who'll get them 20 goals or so

to be honest - i'm glad we are out of europe - o'neill does not cared about it as you seen against cska moscow last march ..... we can totally concentrate on the league now and have no excuses ...... hopefully dunne will sign by Tuesday .....

im sure he will sign.

good win today, good goal from agbonlahor. hes really bulked up and o'neill said hes been going mad working out in the gym, loan striker role for him this season he needed it.

gabby scores again tonight 4 in 4 for him now. roll on sat blackburn away hopefully another 3 points
