Good news if true, although imagine the guy will need time to settle in even when he arrives. Sniejder deal will not be happening, Madrid have agreed a £18M deal with Ajax for him this morning, ah well... |

I really think we need a replacement for Petrov - he just doesnt create anywhere near enough. |

i think petrov should be dropped for a few games give him a kick in the arse and prove hes not always first choice if he dont start producing decent performances time to experiment with rotation and tactical formations, i think gardner has the potential to be our steven gerrard |

It's madness we sold davis after petrov's performance... Who would we replace him with now? I hope we bring in davies and bosingwa this week, our defense looked dodgy as. |

Davis was quality against Arsenal too from what I saw on MOTD2 last night. Petrov is a bit dirty like that and I wasn't surprised that such stupity was rewarded with a goal for the other team. Petrov doesn't cut it for me or add much more than Davis, if anything. |

We also need a top quality centre midfielder because NRC and Petrov looked a bit out of their depth. I know it's Liverpool and they're a class side, but we need to be at least competitive in that department and we were a bit lightweight. Hopefully we'll get better but we were half a yard behind sometimes. Steve Finnan looked class in their defence at full-back, as Gardner did. I think our defence was ok yesterday, except for Laursen. Why did he play if he was ill? |

I'm gutted that Hughes and Davis played wicked on Sunday! But hey, we had the same situation with Crouch, Vassell (for about a game) and D. James I've never seen Bosingwa play but he's meant to be a big player in Portugal. I would've preferred Nicky Hunt from Bolton or Vanden Borre from Anderlecht but hey, a player is a player, if he does a good job then he'll be a fan favourite. |

All I hope, is that in desperation, he doesn't sign anybody who is not good enough. I agree with most of the people that MON has got rid of. Always thought there were 2 many weak players in the team. How come Ridgewell was made captain for the blues? Anyway, I did not expect Villa to beat Liverpool (they are a class team). I was pleased that we gave them a game. One thing I can't understand is why did he play Laursen and Carew if they were ill. I don't think Villa will finish any higher than 10th this year. |

at Dizzy .. i think Hughes is injured but Davis did play okay from what i saw and from what i've read ... |

id switch carew to midfeild and play young and gabbi up front so my midfeild for newcastle would be ------------gardner----------carew--------------barry---------berger i just think that carews passing and hold up play along with tackling is far greater than nrc and petrov we need possitive determination not flair we need a quick fix solution b4 we start building our 5 yr plan etc... we got basis now correct past problems b4 we can move forward |

Also it looks like the official site is as p*ss*d off as we are with the rumours page as they seem to have dropped it! Or is that coz there is no one left to be linked with??? |

Petrov is a liability. Doesnt get stuck in and looses the ball as he doesnt get the time and space he did in jockland. Would love to see gardner 1st choice in the midfield if we sort out the RB position |

What's the point of Petrov? I think he's had enough chances to show that he's good enough and IMHO he is way short of the standard we need to push for a European place. I've heard of "box to box" midfielders but he is a "box to half way line" player.Just watch the number of times the ball goes past him during a game. Hopefully, when we get a right back we can have a midfield of Barry, NRC and Gardner. At least Gardner shows some creativity. |

A good right back will do for starters. We were second best in the air alot on saterday in many parts of the game. Luke More should have started and then Carew to come on as sub but Martin has the experience to sort it out. If we don't sign at least four more internationals I'll be a nervous wreck when we play small heath!! |

About time MON stopped worrying about finances. So he has to pay a bit over the odds. Who cares? We've got the money!RL wont let him overspend (billionaires are the tightest people on earth,thats why they are billionaires!)MON needs to realise he's not at Leicester now. He's got a budget lets see him use it! Boswinga i've said all summer is quality and think a lot of people agree, lets get him in and stop quibbling over a million or two! Come on MON give me a reason to restore my faith in you! |
Wes
said:

Can someone please explain to me why we are struggling to sign players? Is it MON being fussy about the price(when we have millions to spend) or is it the fact that players just don't want to play for us! I love the villa to bits but like most i am disapointed in the lack of motivation to push us to the next level. We are being overtaken by clubs like Newcastle and Portsmouth. come on Villa. Show us what you can do!!!!! |

Football-rumours.com has a comment re Villa signings this week, which if true look good: Davies, Riise, El Hadji Diouf. What a shame on Sat, an unlucky og and a cheated free kick goal. Mind you the pen seemd a bit harsh! I seems like we took three steps forward during the pre-season, and two steps backwards against the pool. |

Yeh there are also reports in portugal press that we had a bid accepted for manuel fernandes...I kno there press can be as bad as ours but i surely hope its true cause i think fernades is a good player he look decent for pompey and everton when on loan.. |

Just read in the express http://www.expressandstar.co.uk/2007/08/14/villa-get-silly-money-warning/ that this blokes agent has been approached and MONs bid of 6mil wont happen. as the club wont sell him or be interested in letting him go for less than $10m - $12m see martin this is what you get. u think that u get better price at the end but u get fkd cos everyone knows u have to get someone. but question is peeps..... is he worth 12million pounds $= pounds (yank keyboards have left the pound behind) |
