I do think Risso has a point however - the message this sends is that we've accepted our place in the world, in a slight Ronnie Corbettish way. I don't think this tells the likes of Ward-Prowse that Villa is the place to be.I don't know or care enough to know about other squads, but how many others have a fourth-choice central defender of his quality?

The way I see it is that Bogarde might be good enough this time next year so it does no harm to send him out to improve, then if he does well he replaces Axel.

I'd prefer someone like Cahill if that's all we're looking for.
Give us another season you shit.
Dont see what's wrong with getting him onloan
