It was only the highlights but I think it was the Crystal Palace game a few weeks ago when I saw Jonny Evans put in possibly the worst individual defensive performance I have seen in the Premier League. And as a Villa season ticket holder for all of the Lambert years that is a massive statement.

Damo you appear to have forgotten Titus Bramble. The acknowledged leader in the field of appalling defensive performances!

I've already highlighted the feasible and reasonable options for transfers including Jonny Evans. villa will be operating as fit and signings like Evans would make great sense. Add a drogba, or hernandez along with ndoye or ings, Chester, Charlie Adams, Nolan, Phillips and along with micah Richards would be good summer. Heaton or Green as Gk then look to move on players.

Drogba and Hernandez would never come here.
Nolan and Green are past it. What would be the point in replacing Given with another aging goalkeeper on big money?
Ings is on his way to Liverpool.
Adam, Chester, Evans - nah.

Phillips, Richards and Heaton would be decent signings, possibly N'Doye.

Part of me wonders whether he means Kevin Phillips.

I wouldn't rule it out.

Bloody hell!  This sounds like Rednaps QPR blueprint.  Worked out well for them.

I wouldn't be surprised if he was referring to a screwdriver. If he was that'd still be more use than some of the other tools on that list.

That all sounds feasible and reasonable enough, but you've missed out Jose Bosingwa and Joseph Desire Job.

My son always gives me the latest transfer rumours from his Match of the Day magazine and they are always with some level of incredulity. They won't seem so bad once I've shown him this.

I am pretty sure he means Captain Mark Phillips

Jay Spearing is 26 and should be coming to his peak in the next couple of season, notice that Bolton loaned him out to Blackburn last season so (checks who Bolton manager is) Lennon obviously doesn't rate him, should be able to pick him up for less than a million and build a team round him. Matt Taylor from Burnley, Jelavic from Hull, Richard Dunne (free) and Carlton Cole (free) would make us a force to reckon with I should imagine. Maybe cheeky bids for Diego Costa and De Gea as they are reportedly looking to move and persuade Xavi to have a couple of seasons in England, sorted.
