[Brazilian Villain]

Kieron Richardson

Shudders. I'd blocked that from my memory.

Same here, couldn't even spell Ciarán correctly.

Worst window ever.

Not even close…..

It's certainly not been great, especially after lots of optimism and praise on here about getting early business done.

I know Diego Carlos's injury has scuppered some thinking, but it's been very underwhelming and we seem happy to let a lot of players go without strengthening.

[DB]

The squad ain't the issue. Just hope after tomorrow he proves me wrong and starts to show signs of improvement on the pitch or at least a plan.
 

[eamonn]

Grant Holt.

He was a real man though. Not one of those fake ones you see.

He went to Wigan for the pies and not the northern soul.

[RamboandBruno]

Worst window ever.

How short the memories are!
You don’t even have to go that far back. January 2020, Samatta, that Spanish 3rd division bloke who played about 15 minutes against spurs and Danny bloody Drinkwater.
I rest my case m’lord.

Rumours that Villa are looking to take Ballon Dawson off of West Ham (yes I know, it’s The Sun). You’d do far worse than him, he’s been immense for us, but is probably 5th choice at CB right now.

Would he move to be 4th choice? Guess it's one place up!

That would be a very good signing.

[cdbearsfan]

Fifth choice centre half from West Ham would be a very good signing? Be still my beating heart.

[Ian.]

I didn’t even realise he wasn’t being used by them. I thought he was still heart if their defence last season. Shows what I know outside the world of B6.

From Craig Dawson

OK,  just had a closer look and it's a parody account.
It was at the top of the page when I googled him to see how old he is, sorry 😞

Dawson is one of those defenders that I instantly think is decent because he scores a fair amount of goals but tbh I have no idea how his defending actually us.

[Villafirst]

What is Villa's net spend in this window? You have to keep investing heavily in this League to progress. It appears more of a cost cutting exercise so far.  Very underwhelming. 3 centre backs only says it all.

Hard working, rock solid, great in the air. One of those defenders that is brilliant with his back to goal but suspect when facing his own goal.
