  1. Downside is clubs now know we have £40 million to spend so the prices will be at a premium. Club wont be held to ransom over players but we also cant afford not to invest in a new striker to replace Benteke who's goals have kept us from been a championship side!

  2. Shocking teams. If that is the squad that starts the season we are down its awful! But we have £40 million to spend so we should see at least 4 new additions 1 been a proven goalscorer! But whats stopping Lerner deciding against investing all that back into the squad? Not even he is that stupid....... is he?

    I'm aware there has been intense media speculation surrounding my future in the last 24 hours and I want to set the record straight.

    I'm not leaving. I'm staying at the football club and I can't wait for the start of the season and captaining this great football club.

    Needed Karl to swoop in and say

  4. What a complete word removed! He will get roundly and deservedly booed on his return to villa park!

    What, when he comes on handing out drinks bottles to his team mates who are actually playing?

    Never really wish ill on people but the manner in which this is has been handled by him, I hope he doesn't get played and loses his England berth (although Woy will pick purely because he plays for Citeh now)

    Fabian Delph the water boy - thats some quality H20....
  5. Tim Sherwood has revealed that takeover talks at Aston Villa have now broken down.

    Chairman Randy Lerner had been discussing a deal with a consortium who were thought to have been granted exclusivity, but that period has now passed.

    Lerner, who first put Villa up for sale at the end of last season, was close to finally finding a buyer but that is no longer the case.

    “I think it’s dead now to be honest,” said Sherwood.

    “It was fairly live but I think the people who were talking are now not there.

    “The chairman is picking it up and running with it now.

    “I’m not sure if anyone is too close now.

    “Until it’s done it’s never there.”

    Lerner, who has already sanctioned a deal to sign Idrissa Gueye for £9million, is backing Villa in the transfer market this summer.

    “Randy is the one who is making the decisions regarding the players,” Sherwood said.

    “He is willing to back us to the hilt.

    “But he can only back us to the tune of financial fair play. That means there might have to be some exits from the club before we can get in some more.”

    Well that means if Benteke dont get sold dont start crying if we dont buy anyone else. :(
  6. 49 million! You are having a laugh! Vastly overpriced! Big deal he can run fast ( runs like a girl tho) and scores some goals.... The media think we are trying extort Liverpool over Benteke yet Liverpool have just mugged Man City. But you have to remember Liverpool are the victims. ... held to ransom over a big baby and held to ransom by Villa.... Can't stand the club and i can't stand the fans they do deserve each other!

  7. Was always going to happen we spend 9 million on a player ( still waiting on work permit) someone was always going to make way! Typical Villa summer PR put "bids" in for players make fans think we are going to spend some money I'm going to buy a season ticket now. .. The shocking reality is its business as usual the pot is empty and we are up s**t creek without a paddle and drifting towards the edge!!!

  8. yeah i think downing is better than n zogbia, wouldnt oppose a loan if west ham were open to it

    The homeless bloke with one leg i saw yesterday is better then N'zogbia! But seriously i would have downing back if it was a loan but no way would i spend £7 million on him, even dick turpin wore a mask!
  9. My worry is that Sherwood rates the guy. Every one seems sure that we will/should be looking to off load him but since Sherwood took over he's been a virtual ever present.

    Thats the worring thing, i dont want to see this waste of oxygen put a Villa shirt on again! The FA cup performance was the final nail in a coffin that has had a fair few nails!! He did not give a crap. He only had one good season with Wigan, we paid for what we thought would be a great player, all we got was a turd. No matter how much this turd gets polished he will always be a turd. So its time to cut this turd loose!

    Senderos 1m

    Vlaar

    Joe Cole

    Sylla

    Luna

    Helenius

    Richardson

    Bent

    In:

    Aleksander Mitrovic (10m - FW )

    Jonathan Walters (Free - RW)

    Bakary Sako (Free - LW)

    Abate (Free - LB) or Jonathan (Free - LB)

    Carlos Zambrano (Free - CB)

    Fabian Schär (8m - CB )

    Rene Adler (5m - GK)

    44M In

    41M Out

    ------------------------Adler------------------

    Hutton----------Schar---Clark-------Abate

    --------------Delph-------Sanchez----------

    Sako--------------------------------------Fer

    ------------Chicharito----Mitrovic----------

    Not that it's even close to possible but is Abate really available on a free?

    (he plays on the right, by the way)

    £3 million for N'zogbia we will be lucky to get £3 and a bag of cheese and onion crisps for him!
  11. We will stuggle to sell him, he has been garbage in his whole time here ( ok maybe 2 or 3 good games ) never replicated his Wigan form for us! He will just be another player we spent lots of money on and just give away, but as long as he never puts on a villa shirt again good riddance!
