Given Mourinho got told off for this after Sunderland, is sarcasm now banned in football ffs?
Tommo.
To be fair Lambert hasn't even got the excuse that he had no money to spend from Lerner, last summer he paid over £18m for the likes of Helenius and Okore who have six appearances between them, the ever disappointing Alexander Tonev, Jed Steer who hasn't played a single game and Libor Kozak who got his leg broken by one of his own team mates just as he was starting to adapt to English football.
The defence needs strengthening more than anything, Baker and Clark are a ongoing comedy at the back, Joe Bennett is shit and Lowton and Luna are inconsistent.

People like Demichelis and Dzeko have been superb in the past few weeks. Well done to City
Tommo.
Dident realise they had spent that much. I totally forgot about the likes of Okore and Helenius

Tbf I went to see Villa play Newcastle back in September (how time flies) and Okore did look decent before getting a season-ending injury.
Mostly seems to have been a miss on the transfers though, not least with the uneven defence.
There's a rumour Newcastle want Delph and Weimann for £15million, although I'm unconvinced by the latter.

I was at that game \o/

Your quite welcome to Weimann, he's ok but the money from him could be reinvested in someone better I'm sure. I'd be sad to see Delph go though, he's improved loads this season.

I don't think he's the Cabaye replacement - I think that's going to be Remy Cabella, given he's leaving Montpellier - but as an upgrade on Anita, I would definitely be happy with that.

Both Helenius and Okore were massively rated last season, though, a lot of big clubs were scouting Okore especially. I wouldn't be surprised to see a new manager come in and both of those players break into the first team. I do think that Paul Lambert is in a bizarre situation at Aston Villa. He seems to get on great with the owner and you get few stories coming out of the dressing room, but yet Villa are still not getting results, and the fans seem lukewarm about him. He's also had two years now, which is fine if you want to argue that the team is young and in transition, but then he keeps buying in raw young players that aren't ready for the first team, which means that the squad age is staying the same.

Helenius was never good enough to play in the Prem, and he never will be.

Is it too late for them to ask Steve Clarke if he fancies a reunion? Sacking him was a dreadful idea at the time and looks even worse now.
If they were to bring back a former manager I would have Nigel Pearson, he's done a great job at Leicester.
