I really can't see a problem with this at all.If he does what Henrys done fir Arsenal tonight I'll be happy

Each league position is worth about 800k isn't it? Scored 2 winners while he is here, he has made us a profit. Scores the winner at Arsenal in the cup and he has. All relative, but there are much worse options out there. One being Heskey.

things make alot more sense when a deep breath has been taken....a good point well made. I dont think the lad is here for a holiday-what would be the point. If we rotate him and bent a little up front it may mean not turning to the unproven kids at the back end of the season when our paper thin squad is usually exposed. I think the doom mongerers on here need to chill the f**k out, it really is only for two months and could actually have a positive effect on delf and weimann

This would make sense if we were short in this area.We are not though as we are already paying
Bent,Gabby,Fonz,Weiman,Heskey and Ireland to do that.
If you were a young Villa player what would it say to you if the journeyman Keane turned up for two months
and pushed you even further down the pecking order?
As Greg and others have said the Heskey argument is unfathomnable.

Back to the days of being underwhelmed

Welcome make it worth it

I thought Heskey was out for 3/4 weeks anyway?
Time for him to get fit in time to leave for Leicester...it's written in the wind!

Plus 3. Good luck to him.

I suppose it stops AM and the club moaning about the wage bill. if we don't get a decent midfielder in and he uses that old excuse, we can point to the 40k a week tied up in the reserve striker he's just bought in

[VillaSpen]

I'd have been delighted to get him in 1999. Not gutted or delighted now. If he's wearing a Villa shirt I'll be behind him.

Is this the first time he's ever arrived at a club without describing it as a "dream move"?

Give him time.
He will.
It is!
