It must be an incredible feeling being a Villa fan, having the best seat in the house to watch your team home or away and being able to pick the team sheet.

Agree with what you say northampton, posted as much a few weeks back.Spot on for me Merd. I agree 100% with your assessment. What worries me about his signings is the fact that so much of our up turn in fortune is based on loan players and talent that other wealthier clubs will covet.
We are currently balanced on a knife edge and for me, the only thing that will keep this core of successful players together is promotion. Impossible to keep talented players like Jack and SJM should they wish to play at a higher level and some of the other loan players will have other potentially more attractive suitors.
Come August, DS may find himself with his back to the wall in the financial bear pit of the Premier League or starting all over again with a fresh squad of players in the Championship.
An eight round game of high stakes poker, followed by a round of Russian roulette lie ahead. Exhilarating and excruciating at the same time.
And offers opportunity, let's not forget that positive element. We nearly spent the Benteke money wisely, I think we ultimately had to integrate too many players into the squad and forgot to buy a decent centre half pairing.Agree with what you say northampton, posted as much a few weeks back.
The only crumb of comfort is that with regard to Jack and SJM if they do go , and Im sure they will if we dont go up, that I believe the current management will ensure we turn a good profit on our two star players to allow us to rebuild.
Interesting that he says we're only allowed 5 loans in a matchday squad and 6 are currently on the books. Who gets left out every game then?
Until the summer.Oh and FFS Jack is Going Nowhere!!
You hopeOh and FFS Jack is Going Nowhere!!
One thing I know, if we are in the championship next season, Jack grealish won't be.
Bottom line: he's got us playing attractive football .
