ok lets try this... moussa sissoko(taylor)15 million euros. boateng ??? merson(johnson man city) 15 million. southgate(???) dublin(rhodes or prognyback) upto 9million barry(gary gardner) free. doubt we will have over 50 million budget and we need more than 1 center back but sissoko would be my number 1 priority this summer, hes massive strong as hell and has a good long shot on him. get him in

problem i have with the Villa squad at the moment is its just so boring,
 even when we have been crap in the past we have always had someone on the books who could get you out of your seat, we are missing that player now especially since Ashley Young left

Ireland is the closest, but i dont know whether he is what i'm taliking about, N'zog has been rubbish so far and then we are struggling, i cant think of one player who excites me and gets me of my seat when he recieves the ball.

a player like Ben Arfa or Taarabt at QPR is what i mean, i'm not saying we can sign them i'm just using them as an example, i know people will say we cant afford luxury players at the moment but i prefer to call them match winners, and there is always room in any team for one of them.

i just want some excitment down at VP again, and a player or two worth watching because he can do the unexpected, in a good way not a Hutton way.

thats why when someone says we need a defensive midfielder to tighten things up at the back and protect the back 4, i'm thinking, give me a break, i want someone like Le Tiss who would be worth the entrance money alone.

i realise this is a romantic notion, but thats the player i would like us to find, i'm not holding my breath at the moment though, and think you guys looking for the midfield enforcer might get your wish before me







Absolutely spot on, we need the excitement factor

PF confirming players will be moved on. I suspect we all know who the likely parties are. Will there be any takers at the wages some of these guys are on?

Interesting he has already given a list of players he wants to Faulkner and Lerner and they are setting about getting them in. Still think there will be 3 or 4 championship players in there.

Nothing wrong with championship players as long as the team is playing in the right manner, I'm not insinuating that you meant that though oz

How many young Championship players with good potential are there? Mariappa for one.

So long as its Premier League quality players playing for Championship clubs rather than the other way round, I see no problem with that.

I don't mind some young players from Championship as long as they're up to it. I still think looking abroad for the majority of our signings is the best idea.

Zaha, Phillips, Ince, Rhodes, Rodriguez, Clyne...etc etc. Plenty of good players in the lower leagues.

I think we'll be after quality players full stop. Some will be bargains, some will cost a bit. Some might play in the championship and some in top leagues but I'm convinced he has a fair bit of money to spend and won't have to shop in the bargain bin exclusively.
