This makes sense, we only play 1 striker and Bent, Gabby and Heskey are more than enough.

Could be very interesting - he's not going to get a run in the Villa team with Bent and Heskey preferred ahead of him up front, so if he can get games at Burnley it will be interesting to finally see if he has what it takes to succeed.

More fuckwitingness

Bannan and The Fonz will only improve playing in the PL

Instead of bringing Ivanhoe on with 15 mins to go it should be the fonz. heskey is far too predictable.

Burnley are looking pretty good at the moment , might stop Leeds making the play offs If he bangs in a few goals  hopefully...   and they claret and blue , so should feel at home.

I think he should be ahead of Heskey on the bench,but if he isn't gonna get a look in here,then its a good move as he needs game,and is going to a club on the up.

Good luck to him,hopefully it'll benefit us next season.

Good move for club and player, i'd imagine there is a clause to recall him if we get to many injuries. At least he is more likely to get some competitive games.

He'll probably score a couple of goals prompting GH to give him a run out at centre half

The fonz should benefit from this however i don't believe it is the right time to be sending players out on loan. Although I dont believe he's going to make it at a high level we need all we have for the last stage of the season

Another good move in my opinion, he needs to score a few goals in a competitive league. Of all the young 'uns in the first team squad fairly regularly, Nathan is the one I'm the most unsure about. I keep thinking back to the incident at Man City when Heskey forced Hart into that save, a natural goalscorer would have been on hand to knock in the rebound.

I hope he does well up there.

Getting him used to scoring against Championship defences in preparation for next season. Pretty forward thinking by Gerard I think.

Same thoughts as with Bannan really.  I'd rather we had all fit bodies staying at Villa in case of injuries or suspensions.
