Can't see Milner coming back. Can't say I want him either. I'd rather have Adam Johnson off city.

If I was Wenger Id have Milner ..   yes , no chance for us

It seems looking at a lot of the assessments of Villa's squad, the term FILL IN seems to feature prominently i.e. whatisname can fill in at full back or so and so can fill in in midfield etc.

That seems the temporary solution to a problem you may have at work, for about a month, not for a years/seasons worth.

1027: BBC Sport's Alistair Magowan has been in touch with Aston Villa and Wolves - and the word is that there is nothing much doing so far at either club. However, our man has been told there may be movements at the latter later on, so worth keeping an ear out.

Oooh exciting

Stweart Downing doesnt have a twitter account folks.  lets not get excited for no reason about Milner coming back to us.  Can't see a player coming back to a club for a 3rd time.  Has that ever happened???

Would be great to have Huddlestone but Spuds definitely wont sell.


if milner left city it wouldnt be for us -it would be arsenal, spurs or liverpool.

We need a director of football, or some sort of strategy.

Why we are signing Alan Hutton for £4m, when Davide Santon who has gone for £5m to Newcastle is beyond me. A 20 year old, full Italy international who's only gonna go up in value. It makes no sense.

Fulham and Newcastle are scouting and signing the best from the Erividise and Ligue 1 respectively. Why aren't we doing that?


we just loaned out the one we just bought for 6mill, to no doubt bring in someone less good but british

Agree with a previous poster in that the players we are being linked with are no better than what we already have. If i didn't love the club i would say Lerner deserves to get relegated, after five years he still doesn't have a clue, has he any idea how much relegation would cost him?

I think the less said about our scouts the better. Lerner sanctioned the signings of Ireland and Makoun and fucked them both off without getting to double figures in appearances for the club. He hasn't a clue, I wouldn't be holding my breath for anything inspiring to come out of today.

BBC says: "been in touch with Aston Villa and Wolves - and the word is that there is nothing much doing so far at either club. However, our man has been told there may be movements at at the latter later on." Which would mean no transfers at Villa today.  Those bells they started sounding at matches last year actually were to mark the death of the club.

I think GH would have made an excellent director of football.  cant believe villa didnt try and give him a role upstairs or with the development of youth.

Andy Carroll isn't all that great, so you mean just one player?
