It's not fair that we're holding back benteke's career is it?

No it's not to be honest

Oh well. I suppose we'll just have to keep paying tens of thousands of pounds a week for him to put up being at Villa Park.
I think he would pick up a bit more elsewhere..... He is an absolutely fantastic player .... And is absolutely wasted under this manager

If we keep a clean sheet against he Foxes I for one will be mildly happy. I like DE-fence

Is it just me or does it appear that there seems to be complete apathy between the players (from the snippets shown on BBC).

Possibly bored? Playing in a defensive formation, poorly trained and poorly motivated, half empty ground near silent, stuck in a rut.

Possibly not to enthused about having to listen to that other fucking eejit drone on in the dressing room after.

Most of the team are wasted by Lambert though. I can't believe folk are wishing away possibly our best player.

Stu... I'm not wishing him away, I would love to see him in Avila shirt for years to come with a decent team and manager but..... He is far far better than what he is playing with here.... Imagine how many goals he would score at even Southampton for example( not that I believe he would go there)... For the amount of chances/ support he gets here he is unbelievable

See above....I posted in the wrong place

The original comment was a bit odd to say the least.
