It has been a turbulent few months for Aston Villa, but the appointment of Steve Bruce as manager a fortnight ago seems to have steadied the ship at Villa Park.

The former Birmingham and Hull manager took over from the sacked Roberto di Matteo on October 12, after the Italian, only employed in the summer, oversaw just one league win in their opening 11 Championship matches.

The Villains were languishing near the bottom of the division, but Bruce’s arrival appears to have changed things at the Birmingham-based club, as they have picked up seven points from a possible nine since Bruce’s appointment.

    That would mean these three forwards plus the five we already have oh and yes Gabby.
    Anyone with a brain could see we need another midfielder or two, Jury out on Jedinak and Westwood not the answer. We also need another fullback as Hutton isn’t what we want.
    This sticks out like a sore thumb but all we read about is forwards.
