........ Cuellar stays right back.Sorted  :) 

The second goal today shows why Cuellar will never make a fullback amongst other reasons.

If we need a left back can we not try and sign Wayne Bridge again? I know we could never afford what he's currently on, but he does seem pretty desperate to play first team football so perhaps he'd be willing to take a significant paycut.

Wayne Bridge wouldn't be in improvement on Warnock IMHO.

I'd probably have agreed with you.. Until today..

I remember watching his West Ham debut. It was worse than Warnock today and that says something.

Jelavic left out of the Rangers side today.

Jelavic and Krankjcar Croatian double deal?
I wonder if they have the same agent...

He refused to play, like he did at Vienna to get the move to Rangers.

Kendrick has just tweeted that the Robbie Keane rumour is true, loan for 2 months.

Well. Aston Villa are like the Mounties. It doesn't matter how long it takes us, we always get our man.

Mat Kendrick - Villa ARE interested in Robbie Keane on a 2 month loan.

For me. That confirms we're losing a striker. Hopefully its just Fonz on loan somewhere. I doubt it will be though.

Someone should tell Lerner that Alex Ferguson didn't rate him.

I wonder if Fergie will bother psyching us out again?

Honestly, how low can our stock get?

What's Gary Pallister doing these days? Maybe we can get him on a pay as you play to stiffen up the defence.

What amazes me is that according to McLeish, he hasn't discussed the transfer window with Lerner yet.  It's January, and as ever we don't appear to have any sort of plan.

Probably can't get hold of him, I'd be surprised if we could afford a company phone.

Hands up who thought that this far into Randy's reign we'd be talking about taking Robbie Keane on loan and fans talk of re-signing Craig Gardner and Liam fucking Ridgewell.

I swear there's an alternate universe where a millionaire, non follically challenged version of me is looking at me and pissing himself at what I have to suffer supporting Villa while he watches Lionel Messi lift the European Cup for us for the 18th year in a row.
