Good news. Probably the three positions Scotland most need in the next few years are goalkeeper, centre-half and centre-forward, so if Villa could provide two of the three that would be handy.

Kellyman seems an interesting player. Very mobile for a tall player.

They all look like they need a good meal.

Very good team performance, apart from the poor 'keeper who had virtually nothing to do on a cold night. It really was very one-sided. I suspect Southampton will be a much stiffer test in the fourth round.

I wonder if Brentford's poor performance is to do with the fact that they've only recently started their own academy?

Craig Gordon can just play until he's 50

Amazed to hear he isn't already 50.

Does anybody know anything about this 16 year old lad Kadan Young, who was on the bench yesterday?

He gave Cuccuella, a £60M full back, a bit of a torrid time in the Abu Dhabi friendly against Chelsea.

I hope they pick him -and Josh Feeney -for the next round in the Youth Cup. Young will still be eligible for next season's competition!

Chucky Jnr is on loan at Crawley.

The manager who signed him for Crawley - John Betsy - was sacked on October 9th after 12 games in charge.

They then had an interim manager - Lewis Young, before appointing Simon Etherington as manager on Nov 27th.

32 days later they've sacked Etherington .... after 3 games in charge. A win and 2 defeats.

Madness.

We've recalled 3 players from their loans, in all cases the managers/coaches who took them on loan have been dismissed and Ramsey's recovering from a injury.

Hayden Lindley (Newport County) 5 appearances
Viljami Sinisalo (Burton Albion) - 8 appearances
Aaron Ramsey (Norwich) - 20 appearances

Pretty sure Villa will look to loan them out again for the rest of the season.
