What are people's thoughts on us potentially getting a new keeper. I think we need one but are we really in a great position (ffp) where we have steer we have bunn and we've loaned moreira. To me if moreira was not ready to be a starter then why waste that money. Surely we would be better putting that money to better use like on a central defender or striker.

My exact thoughts Gaz it dosent make any sense what so ever.

I agree fellas.
We sign him for the season and Bruce says he has great potential and his one for the future then we look like signing another keeper to be first choice.
Don’t get it and it sums Bruce up really.

Seems to me this guy moreira was brought in by Mendes and the other goalie bruce has brought in,
Could there be conflict between bruce and mendes?
Does not make sense at all
Moreira had offer to go to sporting Lisbon but chose us to sit on bench!

Get James Collins on a 1 year deal (free and a warrior) loan a striker like Ings, Abraham, Hugill or the like, sorted
UTV.

Yes agree to one of the above posts, why get in a new keeper just to sit on bench, on a season long loan or say he is for the future, the future is Monday.

Still time for Bunn and Steer to be loaned out or sold because especially Bunn what has his career done over the last 3 seasons? Needs new beginnings and trust Bruce knows what he’s doing here with new owners.

Bunn and steer both finished at villa.

Shoving the kids in sounds like a great idea but we must remember we are Aston Villa and playing for our great club ( I nearly put once great club) comes pressure and once again we will be the team everyone wants to beat. We need to hope we get the mix right, we've tried chucking money at it FAILED we've tried experience FAILED. Now in my opinion we need Bruce more now than we ever did, let's not forget when he came we were a shambles our defence was a joke and I honestly feared for us. He made us a better team and his pulling power was the reason we managed to loan some descent players. If as reported the finances are bad we will need him and his contacts to try again.

Hi guys this is my first post I've followed this site for years and while I've disagreed with many posts I've always felt everyone has a vaild point. Here goes like everyone I am gutted about the result Saturday, but over the course of the season the best teams went up. I like a lot of fans watch villa with rose tinted glasses and apart from a few bad results I felt we had a very good squad and in my opinion this was down to Bruce he just needed to be braver at times. I don't think we should be jumping on the get Bruce out bandwagon, yes we will need to build again but let's make minor changes not a complete overhaul.

Welcome VillaGaz, I agree over all, but I think we will be forced into, a lot of change . Some of them may be for the better . If you have followed the page, you will have seen, certain posters have been calling for the youngsters to be given a shout . I think now, with all the financial restraints, we will be needing them . IDepending on who goes and who stays, I think quite a few of them could be gradually fitted in . If Brucie stays, he has to look at it compleatly, from a different angle, financially he won’t have any choice . The next few weeks are going to be vital, for the Villa . A lot of important decisions have to be made, decisions that they can’t afford to get wrong . What ever they decide, we will still be there trying to do our bit .
Onwards&Upwards Villaforever.

Hi VillaGaz and Davedean82,
I think we will undoubtedly see change as many of the loan players will now return to their clubs after we failed to go up. We may also need to sell to buy if we require players due to FFP, but having said that we are also lucky to have a very talented U23 squad who have been a breath of fresh air this season, so maybe we won't need to buy at all.
I personally have always liked the idea of a young squad, they are hungry for success, more energetic and have that killer pace, it is also a joy to watch the game played at speed. Maybe this is the nudge that Bruce needed to pull away a little from experience and integrate some young blood into the squad.
Players come and go every season so I just tend to go with the flow, but I would like Jack to stay if possible. But if not I suppose the cash generated will be of some use, so it is what it is, he won't be the first good player we lose or the last and that happens at every club. Anyway I'm sure the club already had a game plan for us not being promoted, but what it is we will just have to wait and see I guess.

I take everyone has read the owners statement but while I'm new here and I don't want to step on anyone toes but kingvilla has been a bit out there with his rumours but did anyone else pick up on the statement that there was a lot of thanking of Steve and his staff. I for one hope Steve stays we don't need another new manager at this huge time in our history.

Totally agree, I do not see how you can blame any of the last 2 results on tactics we had something like 38 shots at goal over the last 2 games and we have been undone by bad refs. I don't agree with Jedi in defence but I think the kid from utd will play there once he gets a few games under his belt.

2 good post guys. This is a crucial summer for us and we need to stand together on and off the terraces. Another season in the championship might not be a bad thing. Wait before you all grab your pitch folks let me explain if we had gone up my guess is we would have wasted our budget buying the players on loan and while I know they did well let's no forget that was at championship level and we would have not enjoyed another relegation fight. Now if we can get rid of a few dead wood and build a better core of players when we go up next season hopefully we will be in a better position to kick on. If you look at what's left in the championship apart from somebody doing another Cardiff of Fulham I don't see why we can't run away with it. The teams that are coming down will soon see this league is a battle and I think they will run into the same problems we did.
