Milner has refused to commit himself to Villa, despite repeated attempts to get him to do so.
IMO that is what MON means when he says Milner has "intimated" that he wants to leave.
The manager has rightly got fed up of the procrastination from Milner, a player who now doesn't want to play for us after being here five minutes, despite Villa and MON helping him to play in a WC.
Milner is bleating about it, but he could have sorted this out six weeks ago by stating his intentions clearly to the manager instead of playing games. Jim has played this one all wrong. Villa at the very least deserved some honesty from him about his intentions, after the way we have helped develop his career. Maybe he's gone all Billy Bigbollocks after his one good season.
