We've missed out on 3 now. 1 on the summer and 2 in this window. Not ideal.

We can't have missed out on 3. That imples planning and effort, when we all know there was no planning and just a lot of negligence.

It’s credit to Kamara that he did well at centre half against Celtic, but tbh they’re pretty crap and unfortunately we don’t play those standard of teams every week. Given the fact he’s our best midfielder and we have injuries to Barkley and the made of glass Onana as well compounds the issue.
We still conceded 2 goals , against a mediocre opponent, at home .

Brighton getting Tommy Watson , liked the look of him and would have loved another Tommy at Villa.

Romano saying Sunderland have turned them down


Get him , loan him back .    proper potenial there.

I was due to donate a couple of lungs to a little girl this afternoon. I've called it off. I don't want her surviving in a world where Villa only have three centre backs. It sickens me to think what Monchi's done to that once-great little girl.
Gross negligence on his part.
Total betrayal comes to mind.

I still think we'll have someone else in today.

No I think we will have a centre back, I'm not that arsed if Asencio comes or not to be honest.

Come on guys get a grip.  Sure we’ve ended up in a position we didn’t want to be in, mainly because Bade and Chelsea fucked us over but Unai will work it out.

No, but we’re putting the chances of success over the remainder at massive risk.

We've fucked ourselves over. We needed a centre back since the summer to replace Lenglet. Then we really needed one from the end of December to replace Torres. Then we really, really needed on when Mings got injured. It hasn't come out of the blue. We've been a centre back light for 6 months.

I assume that's it finished with trying to sign Felix? He's turned us down 3 times I think now? He hasn't cut it in the Premier League at Chelsea. He looks too lightweight to me so good that he's going to Milan.

We're a CB light because we sold one, prior to that I wasn't too fussed, but even more so with the current injuries.

I would swap Rashford and Acensio for a centre half.
