bents wages will be a major stumbling block thou got to laugh at newcastles offer 2 mill cheapskates

Believable0 Unbelievable0

I have a sneaky suspicion that most of the bomb squad are playing our club like a fiddle.

They are making things difficult for the buying club knowing that at Villa park their wages are guaranteed whether they are playing with the youth or their fat arses are warming the bench.

Bent is maybe the exception to the rule here, but Bannan, Ireland, Hutton, etc, etc should look in the mirror and man up, get their heads together and move on.

I don`t like harping on about things but these guys are taking the P--s.

Football is a business and should be run like a business, if you or I don`t perform we are sacked, and its about time this should be implemented into the game of football.

It is all about contracts. When they want players stick to the contract that they signed, so they are not taking the p as you so state. When they want to break a contract they get their agent to look elsewhere. UNfortunately they can all stay and take the money, as a lot of workers do when protected by law. I personally would like to see them gone quickly, but unless we give them a "free" so that another club can do their own deals, they will stay put and take the money.

Agree0 Disagree0

Sorry mate.

I still think they are taking the P--s

And I know its all about contracts, as I have stated in many posts.
I think my feelings about contracts are well known on this site.

Anyone else find it amusing that Spurs just spent 26million on Roberto Soldado today, when Levy was interested in Benteke they scoffed at the 25mil.

Surely Benteke is a more valuable (and versatile) player than Soldado.

Leroy.

Makes no difference does it really, that's up to Levy he`s the mug.

I would rather forget about the whole thing now mate.

Agree0 Disagree0

I believe it was media hype and bentekes agent advisingbhis client so the 40k a week deal turnedninto 60k a week

Agree0 Disagree0

Soldado is 28 years old also.

Dave, this is why I find it interesting, as it most likely means that Benteke was actually the party that was pushing for the wages. it's funny that Spurs were the ones "used" in the situation.

I'm glad we have the lad all the same, but he is a mercenary that cannot be doubted now.

Lets hope Grealish, Burke, Drennan etc turn out like Gabby. talented players who love the Villa and are loyal to the cause regardless.

Leroy

Agree0 Disagree0

Well grealish is the one player out of the 3 I'm tipping to break into the 1st team, he's a villa boy through an through so could be another one club man which is a rarity nowadays! Utv

You're getting a bit ahead of yourself aren't you. The kid hasn't made his debut yet and you are predicting he will be a one club man?

Agree0 Disagree0

Please notice the exclamation mark and use of 'could be' mendax ;)

I do have genuine optimism that the lad will go on to make a good career out of the game though.

Kingvilla

Your post said we were waiting for bent to go to free up funds and now you've said thre will be more after these if bent etc go, make up your mind

Josh

Josh you have to press the reply to this post button for it to put it on the same thread, you've done it twice so I thought i'd help you out

Agree0 Disagree0

Josh, ethAVFC, Villamurf and others,

This Kingvilla contact knows nothing. I've been working in professional football for over 6 years now and he has absolutely no idea what he's talking about. Claims to know everything and talks so confidently, when really he is clueless. Stick your on truths and professions gents.

Geroginio Wijnaldum is holding talks with Avfc over a possible 8-12m move. He is perfect for both Lamberts philosophy and also has experience. All round player.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Thats a fairly rough estimate of the fee. you sure this isn't just reverberating other rumours and slapping on the amount?

Leroy

Fulham are definate favourites to sign bent as newcastles offer was only around £2 million. Hopefully if Fulham sign bent we would have enough for 1 marquee signing if required

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Im thinking any fee we get for Bent some of it will be used to pay him off due to the shortfall in wages where ever he goes. But at least he will be off the books! Uncle Randy will have to use his cheque book if we want another marquee signing.

Just a suggestion for a fairly unknown AM is florent cuvellier from stoke. He's young hungry got great potential and would cost not a mega amount say 2-4 mill if stoke play hard ball. He has been on loan at Walsall and championship club last season I think. Check him out on YouTube. No haters please just a suggestion like the Dutch guy.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Fair play mate. Havnt seen or heard much or anything about him to be honest.

Im not of the habit of rating players using youtube, but what kind of game does he possess?

If he has a pass on him, can take a pop at goal and has a good engine its a start.

Leroy

Agree0 Disagree0

He has both abilities you listed, used to watch him on the football league show due to my partners dad and my grandad r. i. p being saddlers. He was a cracking player when he was on loan at walsall. Quality in Manchester United tht season.

Agree0 Disagree0

I actually put Manchester United but it got changed to Man United how funny :D my mistake
