It seems momentum is gathering over the interest from Manchester United in Ron Vlaar.
I for one don't want to lose him but let's get real hear, if they do make an offer for him he will be gone for sure.
This might be the reason we are trying for Aly Cissokho as a replacement.
I know he is a FB but I believe he has played CB before and looked comfortable.
If this is the case let's hope that he can fit in, he can`t be any more of a liability than Baker or Clarke.

Hi Villadave, did you see that Thomas Vermalen is going to Barcelona for a chin scratching £15 million?
If we use that as a barometer we should be in for a windfall of about £30 million quid
I don't actually think Vlaar is a good defender in the premiership as I think he struggles with the pace pace of it
The Spanish or Italian league would suit him down to the ground though
If we could get 20 million plus someone like Smalling or Jones as part of it, I think that would be a pretty good deal.
It's amazing what a good international tournament can do for peoples perception of a player, even those people that have been watching him for 2 years

Hi Mendax, You make a very good point.
Having said that, I think if we had not had Vlaar on board last season we would have gone down.
Our defence is shocking.

Agree0 Disagree0

Agreed Dave
The tragedy is, Vlaar remains very much the best of a very, very bad bunch
The days of McGrath, Ehiogu and Southgate seem a million miles away

To Warvillan I think the use of the disagree tab is just a lazy way for some to say they don't agree that its a good move not that its not a rumour I've done it myself. also ED why is it I can agree/disagree with posts but I cannot use the reply to post tab i'm using a popular 5th generation fruit related smart phone cheers.

cissokho signing from Valencia should be a vast improvement at left back

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Hopefully! Hate to sound negative though but looked very poor in certain games for liverpool. Hopefully just getting up to pace with the league and will be a good addition for us.

abby is now past it, he, hass never learnt the art of one against one and its cost the team, apart from giving loyalty (100%)which is rare with the rest of our 'super stars, he hasn't progressed to being the quality that his early potential suggested
he would

He still better than all of PL buys except 2 we should keep gabby, PL can't sell any of his buys all going loan that tells you our manager is S. t

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree with you warvillian, I said this a few months ago, his technical ability is shocking really for a pro.
Take his pace away and you are left with a championship player, loyalty yes but the time has come when he needs to stand up and be counted or move on.

Agree0 Disagree0

What about kea westwood toney bennet lowton kozak bacuna plus the other3 out on loan there's a team of pure pl rubbish along with his cole, sendross?gabby better than all of then

Agree0 Disagree0

Villajk, how can you say he is better than Sendross or Lowton they are defenders mate.
We are just making a comment on Gabby not the whole team.

Agree0 Disagree0

Baccuna and kozac both scored more then gabby last season and kozac was out for most of it.

Agree0 Disagree0

Villadave Football is a team game and I would choose Gabby over all above My opinion

Agree0 Disagree0

Ok villajk, you are entitled to your opinion mate.
He is a villa man through and through no doubt, but I would sell tomorrow if I could.

Agree0 Disagree0

We just need some transfer rumours to get everyone excited again, even if they have no solidity, some names going around would singal Villa's intent for the coming season
