I think it is a valid concern. Personally, I still think we are likely to get in a loan stopgap - probably not someone who is going to make every one happy, but cover till the summer. But if we don't, there's not much more to say other than a) let's hope we don't get injuries to the few forwards/wingers we have (on a side note, I seem to recall a couple of seasons ago that many were touting Watkins record for not getting injured - and then he did almost immediately), and b) let's hope we get more goals from set-pieces, midfield and youngsters. That would obviously be the expectation from Emery and I guess we just have to have confidence in him. But, yeah, we will obviously be slightly weaker than before the window and there is risk it will bite us. Hopefully this will be irrelevant over the next 24 hours!

Probably end up with his brother Bob.

Ideally would like to see a couple in, but equally happy not to just fill the squad with bodies / get fleeced into paying over the odds. Some cover up front would be ideal, but having got rid of non-playing squad fillers is a really good start and the summer is going to be super exciting. Still think we'll see one or two additions in the next week though.

^ So - plenty of 6 pointers for us to storm into European places! Should really be clawing back places on Brentford, Brighton and Fulham at least.

Emery said recently that we weren't interested in him and we had enough quality in that area.

Time to show some consistency and clinical play against proper relegation candidates. Early goal in each half please and no silly mistakes at the back.

Agree with this. Never really warmed to Ings as a Villa player despite him seeming like a decent bloke. I'm sure we'll have something in place - exciting times to watch us (hopefully) stepping up a level.

Hardly. He's about 3 foot 8. No tiddlers please.

Proper spicy Villa Leeds match that. I thought we we all right, and pretty good in the second half. Never really felt we were going to lose that. Bailey - great comeback after the last couple of weeks. Kamara - so composed. Just superb. Buendia - grew into the game and worked really hard. Moreno - incredibly impressive for someone coming in a couple of days ago. And Young - I'll have what he's having please.

Will be Bamford after he comes and scores.

18,900,000cm by road. 14,300,00cm as the crow flies You're welcome

Good team. 3 points please.

We should sign this Sanson fella - he looks good.

I love Emery's Villa. Amazing results these last 4 games and exciting to see what the next 4 bring now - really good chance to win 5 in a row. And hopefully some tasty Jan shopping.

Ah that's awful.

I looooove Kamara.

Fofanas seem to be the new Dembeles.

It's good to do this winning thing again. We should do it more often.

Don't concede now.

My boss is a man u fan. I've really enjoyed this week. So far.

I'm very pessimistic about this match, even more so having seen this team. But... Maybe, just maybe, another few days of Emery training, tactics and confidence building will have an impact. A few players here needing to perform to prove they deserve a stating place. I have faith Unai knows what he's doing.

We look weak, they look weak.

Just can't see us beating them twice in a week - whatever the sides. I hope for another decent performance and the sight of players looking like they know what they are meant to be doing, but otherwise no expectations.

No way she's going to put up with 2 of us in her life!
