That's who we need, top class! - Abz Sun, 23 Mar 2008 18:58:49 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18114 Typical villa this is, just typical villa. Forget about it. Dont think I'm gonna follow football for the rest of the season its always far too disappointing. Losing to a Sunderland team that hasn't won away from home all season. Superb lads. - JohnnyF Sat, 22 Mar 2008 16:58:12 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18113 couldnt agree more bone. cudicini is def worth a shout!!! our transfer policy is a joke - need someone in to overseas matters. dont worry though i am sure oneil has identified who he wants, just he is so indecisive by the time he puts a bid in we'll all be dead - sasa Sat, 22 Mar 2008 16:03:33 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18112 Robinson's better than Carson!!! But I'd prefer a foreigner - how about a cheeky bid for Cudicini? We do need to sort out our transfer policy though, not looking forward to a Beattie-Harewood partnership next season. - tonebone Sat, 22 Mar 2008 15:49:21 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18111 Confidence is a big part of goal keeping, a couple of years ago all of us would have happily had Robinson, and I am sure his for will return as it did for David James. Scott Carson will also be a good goal keeper given time, we could do with someone with a little more experience, Brad Friedel type keeper that commands his defense and can deal wit crosses. - Jimmy Villain Sat, 22 Mar 2008 15:45:16 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18109 Realistically, who is actually classed as a safe keeper in England? James was "calamity" not long ago and now he's the best we have, Carson makes mistakes and that applies to Robinson, Green and Kirkland. Foster's an unknown quantity as such so where do you get a decent keeper in England? I'd have a look at Amelia of Livorno if I were MON.. - Mick70 Sat, 22 Mar 2008 13:39:00 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18108 As a manager in any field you employ those you can manage. MON is good with English talent that needs their self-belief enhanced. He's not comfortable with young talented spanish/french etc players. Other managers have their strengths with players from abroad. It's time to accept who our manager is, what he is good at and the fact that he has provided us with success. There is obviously more to come. Once we make Europe we'll no longer be getting English cast offs, we'll be poaching their young English talent. - nan was a fan Sat, 22 Mar 2008 12:58:08 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18107 yeah does he not realise england are very bad as an international side so buying english players really isnt going to take us that far. especially cast offas from other clubs we are competing with. there is a reason these clubs want rid. It wont surprise if it happens because we are that inept in the transfer market - sasa Sat, 22 Mar 2008 11:23:52 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18106 100% correct, the title says it all: Paul Robinson, not good enough for Aston Villa! - Woodinho Sat, 22 Mar 2008 11:19:39 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18105 He's not so why should [b]be[/b] accept him? Just because your plans got cancelled doesn't mean you can get sloppy Damian :) - Arrlui Sat, 22 Mar 2008 11:16:40 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18104 How about MON scouting the south american league's? or for that matter the rest of the world, why always English? We're not even in the euros. - taglor Sat, 22 Mar 2008 11:15:44 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18103 I think James is an exception to the rule. Usually once the confidence goes as a keeper, especially for a long period, they are no longer capable of shining in top level football. - nan was a fan Sat, 22 Mar 2008 10:46:34 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18102 I don't think you become a bad player overnight,Paul Robinson has had a bad 12 months,but i recall David James having a similar bad spell,and he's probably the best prem keeper at the moment! Carson's not good enough,Robinson with his confidence restored could be a shrewd signing if the price is right! - Naldy Sat, 22 Mar 2008 10:18:44 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2267/70/#comment-18099 not good enough for utd, chelsea, or arsenal??? not better than hilario, lehmann, almunia, or any of the others that they have tried with and found wanting? even cech has spilled some howlers (against us for a start), and van der sar is far from perfect. that fluke against croatia set him down a path of tough critisism which has effected his game,,, but he'll return stronger and is more likely to win a game than carson. - word Sat, 22 Mar 2008 09:58:47 +0100
