He should be the first name on the sheet this week.
Just Imagine

'My Name is Adam Richman (Cue thudding guitars) I've worked at most places in crisis, but today i'm in Birmingham to take the biggest challenge yet, rescuing Aston Villa from relegation.' (waves fingers at the camera and does bizarre shuffling dance)

I would drop Gabby this week. I would normally play him against Man U even if out of form because he terrorises Vidic, but with him out there's no reason to play him. Put Weimann on at the start with Nzogbia, Ireland and Carruthers behind him.

Hope he does keep his place. He looks a very good striker. I like his movement off the ball. Always looks threatening.

It's his movement that I like too.  I said it after the home game against 'The Mighty Reds YNWA' where he came on late and made several intelligent runs, none of which were picked out by his team mates unfortunately.   I noted him as one to watch because of that.   Gabby and Delfounso are like statues by comparison.  He seems like a good natural finisher as well, so he could be a real find.

'The gaffer was furious after the game as he reckoned I was in a good position to pass it back to Shay Given” said Weimann.'

How much truth said in jest! Good luck to Andreas though, looks a good player.
More likely he was taking the P**s out of some of the negative supporters.


More likely than not dear old Fletch has put in a humourous made up quote into the article and has waited to see if anyone bites.
Well and truely hooked,
It was a hard day  :-[
I read again after posting and thought "surely, there was no way he'd say that" I even checked the date to see if it was April 1st.

I was thinking this earlier in the week. If he's going to play as deep as he did against Stoke and not make many runs, we might as well.
