seeing that our local rivals have both completed marquee signings with shaqiri & rondon I pray that we can bring in our own marquee signing. very excited to see the new winger come in but wouldn't cm consider him as that "marquee" signing. bringing in a marquee defender or praet is what I want for villa in the upcoming weeks
thoughts??????

Schmitts, Andy Carrol was a marquee signing for Liverpool and West Ham, and never amounted to much did it.
We are getting in several quality players that will do us just fine, Our marquee signing might already be at Villa Park, any one of our signings could turn out to be world class, who knows.
Spending 20, 30 or even 40 mil on a player will not guarantee anything.

Rudi gustede.

Selling benteke for 30+ and gustede for 6??? Would take that everyday of the week, and twice on a Sunday!

Stop looking at everyone else, and get behind who and what we have. If we sign no one else, I bet we finish above both our neighbours.

I completely agree with you guys - the signings we have bought in have come with highly rated backgrounds and I do believe we have been very swift in the transfer window. I'm just saying that stoke city have signed shaqiri who has won a treble and would have been a perfect buy for us playing on the right side. I'm very happy with our business(mostly with amavi because believe he fills that LB void we have had since bruma) just I wanna see more. so far as I'm speaking we haven't spent any actual money and just wanna see the club show a bit more intent and go out and sign that "woah" player. don't wanna come off as if I'm moaning but just want that signing that makes everyone else take notice that we can push on to that higher level and attract higher caliber stars still.
(chelsea with gullit - everton with lukaku - middlesborough with juninho)

{Ed007's Note - Shaqiri brings a lot of baggage that AV don't need at this time. AV need to become a well organised hard working team and build from there, they don't need another self-serving ego disrupting behind the scenes.}
