Well yes, there is that. Hopefully we can put it right over the next two games and into January. Players who aren't cup-tied will have a semi-final and possible final to tempt them.

I doubt players will look at 1 result against Chelsea in a purple patch and take a blind bit of notice.

Morrison as back up would be fine.

No ta.
A 29 year old Norwich 2nd choice.
Nowhere near the standard we need.

If he can't get in Norwich team he is not good enough for Aston Villa or even Small Heath.

Norwich are a better team than Villa, so that doesn't make sense.

I would sooner, for 3 million, see Lambert dive back into Europe or the Championship/ league 1 for a target man back up than sign a 29 year old Morrison.

Strange as it sounds what about a Bid for Frank Lampard (if Chelski don't want him). He could sit in the middle of the park and encourage our younsters. Could be a good buy for one and a half seasons.

Lampard would be an excellent move, but is still way above coming to us. QPR in Jan would be my guess.

A worry with Lampard is his biggest strength was his stamina, which one'd expect to decline as he gets older.
Plus I suspect he'd want 3.5 years which would be quite a giant contract over the whole period.

I'd expect Lampard would still want big money and a reasonable length contract. It's a no from me based on value for money.

These are who me and my colleague think we should have our eye on: http://pickourteam.com/premierleague/news/17-12-2012/aston-villa-transfer-wish-list/742615

The problems I see with your suggestions are:

Frimpong: Arsenal wages
Marin: Chelsea wages
Lescott: Man City wages
Stevens: Charlt...ok, go on then.
