  1. Last preseason he looked very average at best. I hope he does better this time around. I have high hopes for Gardner as do many here. I'd really love to see him earn a starting spot this season. He is one of the few large midfielders we have at the club right now. 

     

     

     

    Was he injured last pre-season?

  2. we will end up with Popov.

     

     

     

     

    Im starting to think this too. 

     

    Could be, we are making enquiries for similar players into kidding others that we are no longer in for Popov whilst we clear our decks. Last thing we want is to be gazumped at the last moment and pushing up the price of any deal thats on the table?

  3. Why on earth would Lerner take 25m now when he knows we could get 30m plus next term?

     

    Im not the idiots biggest fan but are people really ignorant of the price we got for Millner and Downing, and that he tried to keep both Barry and Young?

     

    Also, does anyone actually believe Lambert would accept his star striker being sold against his wishes?

     

    Come on guys :rolleyes:

    im sorry guys when i heared the news i didnt think about it just posted it here 

     

     

     

    No need.

     

    Hand on heart, what do you think Benteke will do?

     

     

    stay for 1 more year.

     

     

     

     

     

    Me too.

     

    I think the silence coming from his agent is telling, I also think that Weimann's words on signing his extension was a big clue.

     

     

    but modern  football stays unpredictable u never know some rich russian guy comes with like 50millions

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    In 12 months time and another good season behind him, it wont only be Russian money. All parties know this, hence why he will be here for that length of time.

    Cant believe this shit is still going on.......

     

    Bannan failed to live up to all the hype. Pretending otherwise is like thinking we had a successful season. 

     

    Believe me. this shit is hilarious, jump on the bandwagon & join in the fun.....................Everyone :)

     

     

     

     

     

    LOL

     

    Steven Ireland must wish he was scottish!

    chelsea have signed luis suarez for 40mil...

     

    Yeah right. I'm sure Ivanovic would be very happy about that move.

    Suarez is slightly less likely to bite his own team mate.

     

     

     

     

    With the teeth he has?

     

    Suarez makes a vampire look like a vacuum cleaner!

    • Like 1
  8. Knickers and twist......

     

     

    Chelsea, Spurs and whomever can **** off. At the end of the day he is under contract, which means he can hang on 12 months for his happy move or we wreck his career!

     

  9. I'd rather Benteke just went to Arsenal rather than Liverpool. 

     

     

     

     

    Wont happen. Remember, they are in debt to us over the Downing cash. Even if thats settled, we wont be dealing with the scallies for a while!

     

     

    You just have to laugh at it all, Teckers is under contract, Clubs are allowed to speak to Villa about an offer and it is up to Villa to accept or decline this. No way would a club go to the press and state their intentions as this is seen as trying to unsettle the player and can be punished. I believe that offers will have been made but not that they have been made public as this would also help other teams with their discussions with Villa. This is just paper bull crap trying to make a story.

     

     

     

     

    Theres a certain manager in London that appears to use the media on frequent basis to unsettle players, and im pretty sure thats what all this is about. Not going into names but the London based press believe he is whiter than white. ;)

     

     

    fixed for you ;)

     

     

     

     

    Appreciated :D

    Still would be totally gob smacked if he stayed. Surely there are not too many reasons left as to why he has not signed a contract yet if he is so happy to stay another year.  

    Was thinking the same thing myself. If he wanted to to stay he'd had signed a new contract by now

     

     

     

     

     

    I can see why people would assume that, but on the other hand the opposite may be true.

     

    Its very likely that the new contract has been sorted and it just needs the players signature. Now i know somebody wil say he could fax it, but Benteke signing will be big news for the club and they will want to publicise it. For that, you need the player.

     

    He returns next week, and if no news comes from Villa Park early in the first few days, then it will be time to worry.

     

     

     

    Is Villa Park and Bodymoor Heath the only places in the world you could publicise Villa news?

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Im pretty sure when it comes to Benteke signing, and the impact it may have on ST sales, then in this case yes.

     

    The club will quite rightly milk it until dry. If no news breaks early next week, then i will be worried.

  13. Why would you let 3 players who u hope will leave, an insight into your tactics, set pieces, ideas for the season. For them to take to other clubs. Also they arent going to be involved in any of these tactics so they would be standing along the line anyway.

     

     

    I dont think that plays into it. 

     

    Its simply telling them that they are no longer required. Being left out of of pre-season is a massive snub, and it should get their minds focussed on going elsewhere and pronto.

  14. They're all professionals doing their job. Don't particularly see it as a humiliation. It's the nature of the business.

     

     

     

    Thing is, all footballers love pre season. If your not involved, then it sends a message.

  15.  

     

    Here's how that occurred.

     

    1. Notices Villa have signed two Danish players. Notices we sign young players.
    2. Opens up FM2013
    3. Player search > add filter > nation > Denmark > age - is at most = 24
    4. Randomly picks a player from the list.
    5. Post as ITK on Twitter.

     

     

    Lol, this makes a whole lot of sense..

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Actually, its the script football journalists have been using for years. Works for them, so why not some random bullshitter on twitter? ;)
