and you know this for sure because .................? Of course I don't know for sure, I'm not a player/staff member at the Villa. But I do believe it's quite common for players to read that type of stuff off in the dressing room/training ground/players lounge as a source of banter i.e look no futher than Zamora at Fulham. In any case, I don't think hounding out players is very beneficial to the club or the player in question, unless it makes them more determined to prove you wrong.
