Please not another loan. Thought we was suppose to be building a strong foundation. Can't really do that on loans. No thats not a complaint. :hilton:

We've only got ONE player on loan currently.

A season long loan is no different from a 1 year contract in my book ( season loans can only be called back in the January transfer window ). It enables us to perhaps get better players than we can afford to sign permanently.


So a total of 2 season long loans isn't anything to worry about really ???

Here's that tweet from Laurie Whitwell. Its a verified tweet. Whitwell is the Midlands football correspondent for the Mail.
We've form with left backs turning up for medicals but i'd say this is now a done deal. Bennett to the Albion for a year long loan.

Are season long loans binding ? Does this mean clubs cannot re-call players ?

villa fans hate him jusging by this. "worst LB ever seen at Villa" hahahah

Anyone know anything else about him ?

Better than Chicksen ?

I've already put a couple of posts up. A good friend who goes to 32/33 of the 38 games a season has always said he is absolutely useless. I went to a game with him v Norwich and he was the worst player on the pitch, he gave two wreckless fouls on a mr E Bennett and got sent off. That game was pretty much the end of his Villa career, been their scapegoat ever since.

He looked amazing for Boro V Arsenal in the cup though.

Probably just short of confidence, and is fairly quick and direct.

Remember

Bridge was a busted flush when he came to us
Ward had been part of a double relegation.

They turned out well. Bennett's proven at this level and Villa thought enough of him to pay nearly £3m for him.

A quote from a Villa fan on the thread about him:

"Having a medical at Brighton today with a view to a season long loan if the Mail is to be believed. Would rather have him as back to Cissokho than Stevens though I reckon we've probably had a hard time of attempting to shift Enda."

a look at older posts on Boros forum suggest he was quality in this league for them.

Even the bad Villa opinions seem to acknowledge he is good going forward.

Perfect for Sami's system you'd hope.

Striker next !
