Bannan and Delfouneso are more than capable of playing for a Premier League club, although I guess they will get more playing time in the Championship.

A long with Guzan, Lichaj, Hogg who have all been involved in the the squad this year, but tbf it will do them all good to get some football

Hardly second-choice. He's behind Bent, Gabby and Heskey.

Mmm, it's good to finally see our youngsters doing something other than rotting in the reserves. Delfouneso has everything to be a very good striker - a burst of pace, height, and clinical finishing.

rate him highly, getting goals at that level will do wonders for his confidence

Heh, one thing the Fonz isn't short of is confidence. Almost Bendtner-like in that regard...

True but to get goals on a regular basis will no doubt help his development

The championship is just going be a Villa reserve game every week soon enough.

Good on him. He needs more first-team action if he's to improve with confidence
