    A point gained or two points lost?

    After the first half performance and from going a goal down in extra time, I think the only way you see it is as a point gained. Reading drew so the point gap remains the same. If we don't get wins against both Burton and Ipswich at home then is the point to start worrying, important for us to...

    King kayal to. China?

    Think we can safely regard this one as made up tosh. There's a limit on the amount of foreign players each club can field and with the money floating around the clubs are only interested in signing high profile players and as much as we (rightly) cherish Kayal he just doesn't fit the blue print...

    Callum Wilson/Muzza

    Wouldn't have been able to recall Murray unless all three parties agreed to terminate loan early. If they did feel they were short of strikers, only thing they could have done would have been to stop Grabban from leaving.

    Transfer Deadline Day - Is there a Surprise in Store?

    Apparently according to the linked article we were amongst several clubs who may a late move for the Brazilian winger Cafu (the one at Ludogrets, not the 90s one). http://sportwitness.co.uk/west-ham-leicester-stoke-fail-late-approaches-player-summer/

    In the context of the overall Championship Activity, how happy are you with our business?

    Think the club has strengthened where it has been needed and have every confidence in the players that have been brought in. From a neutral perspective, I'd say Reading have done the best business over the window: Lewis Grabban, Reece Oxford, Jordan Mutch, Adrian Popa and Tiago Ilori are all...

    No panic signing of a striker

    Birmingham Mail are reporting that Arsenal have made Chuba Akpom available for loan and that Villa and a host of other Championship clubs are interested. Wouldn't be a massive surprise if we were one of them.

    No panic signing of a striker

    Yes but only if all three parties agree to it. He's getting regular game time at Burton and his contracts up at the end of the season, so chances are he and Burton wouldn't agree to it even if Hughton wanted it to happen.

    Fikayo Tomori on loan from Chelsea

    Think Adekugbe will be our 4th choice left back behind Poc, Bong and Rosenior still. Tomori is right footed and though he can play there it's probably his weakest position. Chelsea have over 30 players out on loan at mo and given the quality of players they often send out (thinking Chalobah...

    The January Transfer Window

    Might be best financially in the short term but Villa are currently 13th in the league, ten points off a play off spot and it'll be hard for them to work their way into one. If we finish where most hope / expect us to this season than chances are we'll be able to be the better choice in the long...

    The January Transfer Window

    Alfredo Ortuño who's currently on loan at Cadiz from Las Palmas looks like a player who could make the transition to playing over here, but my concern is that he's too similar to Murray and Hemed. He's strong, good in the air and has a tendency to run into the same positions on the pitch. One...
