The Bitters are really going for it as they take off their top scorer and replace him with that well known star striker Graham Dorrans.

Like Barry, lots of lobbying on here in the past for Villa to sign Lescott & Lukaku. All 3 MON's type of mediocre overpaid mercenaries on this evidence.

i said a while ago I reckon we dodged a bullet with Martinez, his brand of mindless optimism will only carry him so far.

Lukaku starts well at clubs and tails off. But he will score a few and win you a few points over the season. It is weighing that up with the total cost of him in fee and wages though.

ID still take him over Lambert.

Mind you I'd take a sack of spuds over Lambert.

Everton are no better than us, there I've said it.

You could say that of a dozen teams, which is the most frustrating aspect of the season.

Not sure he really works as a loan striker.  He even needs a partner or better service.

Or both. Stick him in our side alongside Gabby and in front of our midfield and watch him score 25 goals.



In 5 seasons.

The other results actually went well for us this weekend, could do with a few more of those, at least til after the Chelsea game.
