Magic J 10,640 Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * Need to hold the ball a little bit more here because Liverpool are being patient here. Love a counter attack but jesus, slow it down a little when we get it please. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magic J 10,640 Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * Looking poor with the ball, worst we have been in the last three games. Defensively ok.... we havent conceded in the first 5 so thats a bonus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ruggermad 16,245 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * Took us 35 minutes to turn up. First 20-30 minutes is the worst we've played so far this season. Hopefully the good spell can continue after the break. Good goal from Sturridge but we've been poor.

ashtini 27,252 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * So HT. Took a while for Villa to get into it, more down to Liverpool's efficiency it feels though. Massive fan of Gabby, always positive. Benteke was poor until his turn and shot. Still feel you can get a goal, may be the pace of Weimann or Gabby that makes it happen though, unless Benteke steps up and produces some magic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Magic J 10,640 Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * I dont think Weimann has looked great so far this season. Had some decent spells. Tonev on for him, grab a goal lad. Ahhhh Gabby! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magic J 10,640 Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * Helenius on. Westwood off. Beneteke, Gabby, Helenius, Tonev. Four pretty attacking players there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Magic J 10,640 Posted August 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * Shame really, but too come out of these three games with three points is good. Just wanted to grab a point today really. Shocking first 40 cost us. Liverpool were good for their lead. We are definitely a better team than last season. Progression is there to see. Feel some what unlucky not to get a draw but just one of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gozzy 10,758 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * Is Bacuna will be mainly used as utility man this season? Thought you are dreadful in the first half,but then you dominate the second half too. In the other days,Benteke would bury those chances he get. This team will only get better when the new signings gel more Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vendetta 11,856 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * Unlucky lad. Draw is more like it. Don't like Gabby, think he is all pace. Would love to see Tonev take his place in there future, or is it not possible? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ruggermad 16,245 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * Frustrated we haven't got anything from the Chelsea or Liverpool games considering how well we played in both game but three points from the week we've had is very pleasing for me. Especially when you consider how well we've done in all three games, I think we should do well against some of the 'lesser' sides. We've played three of the top six (in my opinion) teams in the league and we've come out in a very commendable position in my eyes so I'm happy overall. As Magic said, you can see we're a better team than last year. Top ten this year should be our goal, and off the back of pre season and these three games, I'd say that's very achievable.

Dom Latouche 9,335 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * Lamberts interview suggest there could be arrivals and departures before monday. lets frigging hope so. What do you guys think you need? I think a cover RB as Bacuna I think was brought there or can play there but I dont think he is good enough. A different type of central midfielder , Someone that has a bit more of a attacking threat someone who can make incisive passes more so. Maybe a winger as well but you have a fair few already I wont go into who I think should leave as that is stating the obvious Must state I really like Villa as my dad was a fan and I think their a massive club and besides you guys dont talk a load of cobblers like some on the arsenal thread Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ruggermad 16,245 Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * I'd say a back up RB and a creative midfielder/winger. I know it's unlikely but Kiotake would've been great. So would Viktor Fischer. Something in that mould. I trust Lambert to sort out our deadwood too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magic J 10,640 Posted August 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * The priority for me is an AM who can unlock defences with his passes. A playmaker. We have plenty of dynamic, quick forwards and midfielders who will run at players and full backs who like to cross. However we lack a true play maker. For me this is the number one priority. Needs to happen, especially when were at home when teams dont tend to attack us as much as if we were playing at their place, and when our counter attacking can run riot.

Magic J 10,640 Posted September 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Re: Official Aston Villa Thread ! * no spoilers * Confirmed by Matt Kendrick and Bannans Instagram That he is having a medical at Crystal Palace today. Best for all parties if he leaves. Also, apparently we have agreed a fee for Kozak of Lazio. Big strong striker, fee rumoured to be around 6-9 million Euros, with far more outlets reporting the 9 million figure. If we pay that, which is around what, £7.5 million id be disappointed we were put of by the 10 million asking fee for Kiyotake. Far more integral to our development than competition for Beneteke. Saying that though that kind of fee suggets he will have a role, maybe getting in a replacement for Benteke already, get him up to scratch with the EPL and our play before chucking him in at the deepend, who knows. What I do know is, if we dont sign a AM i will be some what disappointed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
