Would welcome back with open arms. our best player in the last 4/5 games of
last season.

We are more than likely going to go with one up front, we have Bent, Gabby, Heskey and Fonzy.  I really don't think a striker is the priority.

I would be happy with Adam, Foster, Dann, N'Zogbia, Walker (if we can keep Downing).

The Sunday Mirror is saying McLeish will have £40 Million to spend

http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Aston-Villa-transfer-news-Alex-McLeish-handed-40million-budget-to-rebuild-article749168.html

We obviously need a Keeper and Young is on his way, but still a bit to spend there. Could be interesting

If it is 40 million plus Young cash, then it is enough. Still think we should, where possible, find some bargains.

First 3 signings

1) McFadden
2) Ferguson
3) Hutton

OK - partly tongue in cheek.

Who I'd like to see?

Well Given would be a good start to be followed by Johnson and then someone who can actually win the ball in midfield and not give it away (like Barry when he was good)

I can't see Blues wanting to do much business with us now so would take silly money to get Dann or Foster, so I would look else where.

I think a lot of the comments are sabre rattling from Pannu for the benefit of the unwashed, if would be ridiculous for them to cut ties with us as we will always be the biggest club in the area and there will always be players not good enough for our first team who want to stay in the area. The business we've done with them over the last five years has almost all been to their benefit.

Barry rarely won the ball in midfield.

If that means that Wes Brown won't be coming, I am all for it!

I was going to make that comment earlier, but feared the ensuing debate about Barry would get tedious.

Why didn't he take the penalty?

Funny really as I think Given is a touch overrated. There's not a lot to choose between the two as far as I'm concerned.

Apart from a near ten year age difference..

So Blues were going to pay him more than we offered him to stay?! I doubt it.

NRC was going to drop a division when 4 weeks ago his agent was trying to get him £60k a week. Doubt it. Wouldn't be suprised to see him come back though.
