Tomaszk

But then it says he wants to leave

this much ££££££££££££££££££££££££££££ Nah, not sure, do we get a set sum or is it all down to shirt selling. Remember they aren't our sponser, just our kit manufacturer so the sum will be dependent on sellgin figures (oh look Ive answered my own q). We will sell loads

Makes you wonder why with all that talent a big club hasn't taken a gamble on him. Is it just down to character and attitude? It is. His stinks. Based on what? Falling out with Bryan Robson, who after Steve McClaren, is probably the biggest waste of air in the world of football management. Just to reiterate, Koumas was their player of the season. Bryan Robson decided he wasn't 'pulling his weight' so farmed him out to Cardiff, where he scored 13 goals in 44 appearances. He then went back, signed a new contract, battled for his place and is now their player of the year again. Tha doesn't strike me as a particularlt bad attitude. Im not saying i dont want to sign him, i do, ive sad that all along. 6m is abit steep, but I digress... He does have a bad attitude, its shown when things don't go his way. He demanded a move form baggies when they went down, then out of the blue stopped going to training sessions. I'll think of more incidents later, but that IS why he hasn't moved yet, managers have heard about this lack of discipline. Bit of a melon all in all. Hopefully hes grown up. As a player I'd love to see him just given license to roam in a kind of 4-4-1 behind the front man. He would absolutley rip teams apart.

Oh yes. Please please please....... But isn't he 34? :winkold: yeah but he'd have to cut his 90k an hour wages

cant wait for koumas to come - the ratings follwing games will be 'angel-ecs' 0's & 10's all round

Come ooooooon signing this week

? Who did ultra play for?

But Barton has a clause in his contract and is trouble so not as 'popular' as a purchase I actually find it a little strange that Barton's still costing $5.5m after what he did and that Man City wants him to leave. Should normally be even cheaper than that I think. Almost always when such things happens the players price goes down a lot. Purely because hes a quality footballer

Theres no doubt Ill give him my full backing on the pitch, and gladly eat huge piles of humble pie if he proves me wrong.... BUT Ill be dissapointed if Newc get Barton for 5.5m and we get Reo-Coker for 8m! IMO a worse player for way more money

yesterday they said NRC was "begging" to go to newc. They are jokers

by dummy i assume you mean Mr Baros :winkold: *Ba-dum chhhhhhh* Weeeeeeeey!!

I like Fred. He celebrates with a dummy, everything I want in a forward

I would not like us to sign Reo Coker.

I'm fairly sure that if he were available for the £450,000 that West Ham paid for him at that age then there would be an awful lot of interest. Maybe the fact that there is lots of interest in one player but nothing another is affected by factors other than the quality of the player? Their availability perhaps? Manchester Utd decided to sign Ji-Sung Park and not Gareth Barry. So by the same logic, that must mean that Park is better than Barry. No but he sells shirts in asia

Your aloud 1 player over 21 in the squad i think. So in theory, could we have Sheringham if we wanted to, or is there a boundary?

Why is Jenas ahead of Barry again? Could it be he plays in London?

You know, youll have to ask Pearce, but he should be there, in the starting team. OT, why is Reo-Coker in the squad, hes defo over 21??

Was he better at age 20 than Gardner is now? Nope I cannot remember can you? He was at wimbledon, and then went to west ham, not manu or anyone special. And yes I can, and he wasnt as good

Was he better at age 20 than Gardner is now? Nope

NRC for 8m is a rip off. Hes just a 23 year old Gardner, but he plays in London so the press love him. Waste of money IMO.

Altidore is fast. That is all I know on those links. Where was this btw?

General I have never posted in this thread, but can I just express that no matter what you read in any paper or on any website, the villa fans will be eternally grateful to you and your whole team for bringing this great club out of some dark dark times. Also, I just had to say what a great move by everyone invovled in getting a real European super power to our ground for a match. We all know, whilst there is no harm in trying, true success will not be achieved for a few years, but my god, we won't wait around to reach these big teams, we'll bring them to us! Fantastic stuff. Any ideas if yourself or Randy will be making the trip to VP for the match?

That Nemeth is mint on FM. Scored bag loads for me, nice finishing and composure.......WHY DID WE MISS OUT!!! GRRRR

Have you seen them play this year? Yes I have. Have to admit that I haven't seen them too many times but there's a reason why they play in the championship. Even if the names are pretty similar the championship and the champions league are quit different when it coms to quality of the players. Well theyve got a couple of QUALITY players. Unfortunetley they aren't maradona so couldnt get them promoted on their won but are premiership players. Koumas is absolutley brilliant but a bit of a tit, and Davies is a great young player. Gera has gone off the boil since their relegation because people boot him up in the air now, but I would have him if he could prove he can get back to that form. Jut making a point really, that people can be good players even if they are from shod teams, see Jagielka at Sheff Utd.
