Aston Villa Transfers: 10 Goal-Scorers Lambert Should Break His Neck To Buy

5. Matt Ritchie

Bournemouth's flying performance in the Championship this season has been as much down to expansive attacking play as it has to Eddie Howe's management, and winger Matt Ritchie has been a key part of that revolution. If the south-coasters do follow through on their promotion potential he will have been a big part of it. The attacker now has 8 goals this season, and while that's not as many as some of the striking options on this list, having midfielders who score between 8 and 10 goals a season can be the difference between relegation and mid-table, which is the least Villa should be aiming for.
