    You must be getting mixed up. Richard Dunne is the one that plays for Villa that scores all the own goals

    That said, it is impossible for a midfield to hold the ball for 90 mins. Your defence will have to come into it at some point. The defence make decisions the wrong way at times and are punished. Prioirty should be defence strengthening

    If your gonnae say something as bad as that youve at least got to elaborate on it.

    Everyone I speak to from the guys who sit around me at Celtic Park to the guys on my supporters bus all agree that our midfield give the ball away way too often

    I agree. I'm in no way defending the undefendable but the midfield has went unblamed for far too often. You dont win matches if you dont have the ball and our midfield cant hold on to it long enough.

    What my point is the midfield go unblamed week in week out when they are to blame at times as much as the defence

    oh aye, sometimes I wish we were as water-tight as them accross the other side and use our footballing players to attack. Aye they give the ball away rarely. That's what you've to aim for.

    The reason we've been conceding goals is 1) Individual errors (Loovens/Rogne/Maj/etc) 2) Inability to defend set-pieces.

    We have averaged over the past 4-5 games 56% possession or so. We generally camp inside the opposition half.

    Over the course of a game any team in the world are going to at some stage lose possession and go under a bit of pressure. Our problem is we cannot deal with the slightest of pressure.

    Thank * someone sees some sense. It kills you to admite but they know how to keep possesion. You wont beat a team if you cant get the ball off them. Barcelona are a prime example of that

    pretty much it.

    Though we did do alright at St Johnstone with the score at 2-3 to us, but that's sort of it isn't it? That the score went from 0-3 to 2-3. Maj played superb that game and while he has made errors, he's still come away with credit for me

    What about Curtis Davies who is frozen out at Villa at the moment? Cost them around £8m. Will win everything in the air. Has a turn of pace and can tackle. Was knocking on England's door a couple of years back before injury. Wouldn't be overly expensive to buy but wages may be a problem.

    What happened to the guy from Mallorca last year, think he was called Ramas? Could he be a possibility?

    Ramis was a TM target. Doubt we'll go for him
