Why the fuck have we sold him in time to play against us? Bruce is an absolute fucking idiot.

Why the fuck does it matter? He's shit.

Because whether he's shit or not, we're extremely good at making shit players look better than they are.

He's always capable of scoring from a free kick. It would be typical Villa if he scored against us. If they select him, the manager clearly rates him more highly than whoever would have played if he wasn't available.

We could have let him train with them but delayed the formality of the signing until Wednesday.

It's massive incompetence not to do so.

Agbonlahor will score his first goal for Walsall against Villa. Probably be his 52nd match for them.

If I see any Villa player laughing and joking with him after Tuesdays game if we have lost they can go and jump of the nearest bridge.

I'm glad he's gone because he brings with him a lot of baggage. As a player though I think he's a better RB than the one we currently have playing.

Good job we've got Bree and De Laet then

Bloody hell you're grumpy today.

If he's shit enough to sell, surely he's shit enough to play against?

I hope you're right. But plenty of our former players were deemed shit enough to sell.

Hopefully he'll have more of a Ridgewell impact than a Vassell one!

Selling a player is only ever a good deal if you get someone in who is better. I wont hold my breath.

We have already got better surely ?

We don't need to replace him, we're trying to get the players we don't need off the wage bill not replace em with even more. The squad is way too big

Reading fans are raving about how well Bacuna is playing for them.

Another example of how we have been destroying careers?

I don't think so.
