Lambert could be in even more trouble, his assistant leaving in a run of big games and Bent's been shipped off to Brighton. Amazed latter hasn't been given that many regular chances, a decent finisher IMO.
That
Vine at the end made me laugh, just SO relaxed
There was no row with Agbonlahor, that's all shit. Keane was well respected at Villa.
Bent leaving isn't a big deal, he's shite. He might have some goals in him but no more than Benteke or Kozak would provide, when they're not suspended or injured.
If Villa lose against Burnley tomorrow I might cry - even though it wouldn't surprise me. It's gotten to the point now where relegation would be a good thing for the club as all the 'top' players on big wages would leave the club, and Villa could just start again like Saints, Newcastle, and several other clubs did. Unfortunately Lerner will probably do the bare minimum to ensure we won't get relegated as it would affect his chances of finding a buyer, so until then, Villa will be stuck in never-ending misery.
Supporting Villa for the best part of 24 years has rarely been an enjoyable experience, but it's never been worse than this. Villa recorded the lowest home attendance since 1999 against Southampton - even under McLeish the team had better support. Everything about the club is toxic right now. Such a shame to see what Villa have become, all because Lerner cares more about his wallet than the fans - 5 years ago we were one of the most entertaining and attacking teams in the league, on the cusp of Champions League qualification. Watching the team now, I see better football played in the Conference.
