It's been a bit quiet lately. Anyone know of any transfer in and out of the club happening?

Only thing i've seen recently is Feynoord have bid to take El Ahmadi back to Holland. Probably for pennies but better to get rid of desd wood, especially if he wants out.

Surprised to hear Gardner's gone to Brighton for the season. Only real striker cover we had after Benty. Perhaps someone is coming in?

Gardner is a central midfield player Dru

Gardner would be our best midfielder given some playing time PL you are a idiot, Westwood nowhere near his class Cole won't cut it Richardson Sendross will be found out, Fulham went down and did not want then and when will we play some good football, Fed Up

I think I'm probably going to be in the minority here, but I really do not get the fuss that a lot of villa fans make over Gardner. I know he was injured last year, but he is 22 now. In this day and age that is old enough to have broken into the first team by now. And I would say if he hasn't done it by now then he probably won't. I've seen him play and yeh, he looks ok. But if he was good enough, he would've been pushing hard for the first team before last season when he was injured. PL wouldve given him the chance. Grealish is 18 and is breaking into the first team bit by bit. And not looking out of place I might add. we've had so many false dawns with youth players being overhyped and overrated, craig gardner was the same, and don't forget the Moore brothers! Gary, in my opinion, is the same. He might carve out a career as a dependable premier league player eventually, but he isn't the next big thing that most villa fans seem to be pinning their hopes on.

Come on jk, PL is not an person but he is the manager of AVFC and is doing a reasonable job under severe restrictions on finance.
Senderous was picked by BBC pundits into the prem. team of the week so he cannot be that bad.
If you were a Man U supporter I could understand your attitude but it is a bit early to be slagging off the manager because he allows a talented player out on loan to give him game time but he will be back come January.
Wake up, smell the flowers, as at the moment they are quite sweet.


7.) 26 Aug 2014
What a load of shit, at least get facts correct.
Fulham wanted, but couldn't afford.
Senderos was in Italy, and Richardson, when fit was one if a few bright sparks.
Gardener is only there until jan, purely for game time.

We are villa fans, grow up and get behind the team. If you can't do that, at least give us the respect if actually doing your home work, and not just talk wank

I think you make a good point Lovespud
As poor a judge of a player as I think Lambert is in terms of buying players, I doubt even he could overlook a class act that was under his nose
Perhaps Gardner is really not showing it in training


9.) 26 Aug 2014
The loan move makes sense in my opinion. The boy needs match time. If he can prove himself in League 1 then he will come back a better player. I also thought it was only a 4 month loan.


10.) 26 Aug 2014
Agree love spud but villajk what do you want more from villa at the moment. It sounds like your expecting us to win the league or something. Westwood is a much better player than Gardner, in fact how often has Gardner actually played? Maybe 5 starts as a guess. I don't see how you can call Paul lambert an person when you have seen him in a few games and he sees him every day in training. All lambert sis trying to do is help his career get back on track by giving him some game time. Us and tottemham are the only tea, s not to have conceded and we have 4 points from our first two games. AND YOU STILL can't FIND ANYTHING GOOD TO SAY. Fans like you really do make me laugh sometimes


11.) 26 Aug 2014
Sorry, Championship not League 1, oops.


12.) 26 Aug 2014
Gardner given the chance would be a very good player. Better now than all the midfielders except Delph.
Hopefully he will come back fit in January and get straight into the squad.


13.) 26 Aug 2014
Gardner is a quality player and will be but the first thing is for him to get some consisent competitive football under his belt. After he has done that he can think about breaking into the Villa team. He has had too many injuries during the start of his career but Brighton could be the right step for him and when he comes back he may become a better player and learn from his experience there.


14.) 27 Aug 2014
I agree with this loan move for gardener. This will really help him step up by getting some playing time. Look at how it helped players like Sturridge, wellbeck and courtois.

Lets give it a few more games and see ,say 8,, PL is a person as was AM But both are bad managers imo ,Flackie or wank talk ,Fulham did not want sendross or Richardson to old glad to get off the wage bill, I support Villa want them to play well Good attractive football I don't expect us to win anything , watching good football only

given the performance of lamberk in the foreign market I think we'll be fielidig 9 lunas one balaban and a djembe djembe every week the mans a buffoon wouldn't let him loose in a Calais hypermarket, with a fiver never min d buying some of the nobodies people keep posting about

Going backto the gardner issue it'll be interesting how he can stay fitand not have his own allocated chair in the physio room like he did at villa park
