It's not as if Defoe looked completely washed up when he was at Tottngham either, it was more the case that he was just offered a ridiculous deal to head to Toronto.
Three goals in his last thirty Premier League appearances for Tottingham.

Admittedly, that sounds like it would be enough to trouble the business end of our top scorers list - but I'm not upset that we've chosen not to pick him up.

Won't he outscore Benteke between now and May? They've got Adam Johnson to supply him, we've got N'Zogbia...

A one-legged stool would have a good shot at outscoring Gabby and Weimann between now and May.

I am very worried about how this season will end, I've never seen a Villa side full of so many players devoid of ideas in the opponent's half before.

We have to hope that we start to play more direct, Benteke gets on a roll, and Gil makes a big difference. That, and the defence needs to stay strong, as they've been good for 90% of the season.

We need 5 wins, a draw and 10 defeats in the last 16 games to equal last year. I'm pretty sure we can get at least 10 defeats.

Teams get relegated when players and the manager are fed up of fighting relegation. We are there now.

We are now the lowest scorers in Europe's major leagues let alone in the UK.

It's not looking very good, is it?
