Jordan Ayew - sold to Swansea

[Nastylee]

Can't wait!

[Dave]

I agree, Villa strikers scoring loads of goals.

Sign me up.

That's a lovely first touch, totally unexpected, I like that bit of brilliance he's shown in a few videos.  I hope that becomes a big part of his game for us.

There is a player in Ayew. Positive, likes to have a go. He was never going to get much of a kick last week and maybe won't at the weekend, but against the sides that he can get at, he will be a great asset long term I reckon.

Everton are a good side and it will be a difficult game but to suggest Ayew might not get much of a kick is going a little far.

I do think if Garde can settle in, even if he doesn't perform the miracle and keep us up (judging on other sides with 5 points after 11 lets face it, it would be a pretty stunning effort) we do have a squad we could keep together and walk promotion back up.

[Dave Cooper please]

Well he must be fit as he played and scored today

Is Comoros a real country? Sounds like a holiday package tour company.

[Villa in Denmark]

The way he shaped that shot was very similar to his near miss against Spurs. Very good finish.

Islands in the Indian Ocean. About 20 years ago (maybe more) a plane crash was captured on film there. I think it was a 737 cart-wheeling in the ocean on the approach.

If it's islands in the Indian Ocean, in about another 20 years they probably won't exist.

You mean Tsunami wise?

Global warming?

[Villa in Denmark]

Global warming?

Yes, rising seal levels.

Most of those small island nations will be in deep shit with a 1m. rise and gone with 1.5-2.0m.

Ah, I see.  Sunk by Seal shit.  Who'd have thought it?

[damon loves JT]

Sounds an ideal place to go out clubbing.

He also looks to me like the type that if we drop, will score a bucket load in the Championship.

Agree, though I'm not sure he is suited to the central striker role.  From the bits I have seen of him so far, he looks very much like a confidence player.  His head seems to go down very quickly if things don't happen for him, but on the flip side, he seems to get a real lift when things come off.
