A good result for us, and one that extends our winning run to 3 games, also entailing 3 clean sheets which is promising to find that whilst still scoring goals, we're being resolute at the back. 6 wins in 8 has meant that we're now on the fringes of the play offs, and hopefully we can maintain this form throughout the season. Clearly, the worry at the minute is whether we can get the loanee's who've raised the barrier and standard at the club enoromously to sign this players on a permanant basis. At the minute a large percentage (in context) revolves around these players;
Lawrence
Hendrie
Diao
Griffin
Delap is currently injured, also Jeff Whitley has failed to make an impression.
Lawrence is going to sign.
Hendrie, i doubt due to ambission to remain at Villa, although i wouldn't totally rule out a move.
Diao, quoted at saying wouldn't return to Liverpool under Benitez. Good possibility.
Griffin will sign, not official, but,.... well being told by a 'relaible source'. Ah that old chestnut.
Hopefully TP will keep the good work up, and retain these players as well as adding one or two more in the Jan window. I want us to go all out for promotion as i think the CCC this season is quite poor tbh, and we have a great opportunity providing we back the manager...
