I'd settle for Scott Huckerby on the wing.

Doucoure from Watford would be good to give us legs, strength and a goal threat from midfield, he’s been linked with a move away for around £25m

I suggested that few weeks back, good player and I think he's compliment the others well.

Watford fans I know said he wasn’t as good last season but that might have been because he was linked with likes if Arsenal last summer & got stuck there ....but the bonus of having Shakespeare is Dean wouldn’t have to go to far to get a character reference.

"Time is tight"- let's hope we get Stax of  signings Dunn quickly and we don't come a Cropper in the transfer market

Getting in Albrighton with a good 3 years left as a good player would be a sign of progress.

He’s an England pro and a league winner. He has pedigree and experience, he is still local and from a family of Villa fans.

This really is one the owners should go after that could show intent for other players we are after. They could really accelerate progress across the whole business by introducing a player or two of this pedigree.

Wow that turned out as a bit of an Albrighton love in. I didn’t realise I missed him so.

I like your admiration of Albie, and think he would be useful, but I don’t think he’d be a signing that signals intent. He would be a good addition as a squad player though.

You would need a striker with movement and an ability to head a ball

I still think Wesley could do that. But definitely need a quality striker.

You might be right it was quite nostalgic and based on just reading about his career without watching him play loads.

That's all it is. They're hawking across Europe and had a sit down with us in the week according to the Gazette Dello Sport.

Ah, fair enough. I doubt we'd be offering comparable wages for any of them.
