  1. Felix / his agent are disrespectful. Hope he rots where he is He is an utter tool, who doesn’t deserve pursuing. Brown nosing Barcelona - who I’m assuming do not reciprocate his love - is just desperate measures. IF he ends up at villa, it will clearly be as he had absolutely no other options. He can **** off with an attitude like that.
  2. And they start every game with a 3-0 lead as a handicap to the other teams.
  3. I’m not sure it helps with anything to be honest. At the end of the day, they can only play 11 players each. They will not be able to stockpile every top tier player as they will want to play. coaching and team building will play a big part in who is the best team. As things stand, all FFP is doing is limiting where the top tier players can go. A player is more likely to opt to come to a club like villa if we are able to offer similar wages as the elite teams if the choice was purely based on playing time. But if they can earn double at Chelsea because Chelsea have the FFP headroom to offer that, then makes the choice of sitting on a bench a little easier to stomach.
  4. It’s this in a nutshell. Growing up it was all about Serie A. They had the money and all the players. 1991 We lost a world class player to **** Bari. BARI. Serie A was a monster, much like the premier league has been, and where the Saudi Pro league is trying to be now. Heritage may be a thing, but it’s not THE thing. Thats money. Always has been. Always will be.
  5. I generally agree with your point. But is FFP preventing anything? I think it’s being exploited to get a few rungs up the ladder faster than anything. It’s not Fair Play if some clubs have access to a market that others don’t. Chelsea and Newcastle can seemingly unload any player they want for any fee they want. Quite literally chelsea could sell a player like Enzo to a Saudi club for say £300m. Then the Saudi club could sell him to Newcastle for £50m FFP my arse. Just ditch it all together. Free for all.
  6. That list can say what it wants, but there is no way in hell he’s faster than Adama Traore.
  7. Well it’s definitely not Elphick. Too tall.
  8. Nothing. or he’s doing it wrong.
  9. Lol, chap. Chill. Kiwi is a ‘none of the above’ kinda guy.
  10. You don’t have to know the answer to know what isn’t the answer. For example, you don’t have to know the mass of Jupiter to know that it ISN’T 5kg.
  11. If we let him go, it will be a Gary Cahill level mistake.
  12. Emery himself said that he was not impossible for us, but he wanted to play in the champions league.
  13. He will not entertain any offers from clubs that are not in the champions league. So he’s either saying ‘**** off Villa’, or he genuinely wants Dynamo Tbilisi to come in for him
  14. We have already seen what the effects of changing captains can be. There is no need to change captains. Leave things be, or rotate the captaincy. We need 11 captains on the field. You shouldn’t need an armband.
  15. Forget this guy. I genuinely don’t want him now. He’s arrogant about his ability. Wants champions league football and no champions league team wants him. Carry on being rude about clubs you think are below you while you rot in the Atletico reserves. Prick.
  16. Careful, @Sulberto21 will explode.
  17. Would take a world record fee for a goalkeeper nothing to see here, move along.
  18. Atletico madrid have done it 3 times. They've even topped £100m.
  19. He would’ve been 16 at the time, and precisely the reason I don’t let my kids have social media accounts.
  20. Norwich fans will tell you that Buendia is the best player they’ve ever had. That includes James Maddison. We didn’t overpay for him at the time of doing business, we just didn’t get what we expected.

    Kortney Hause

    What line did you quote? You quoted our overall wage bill which tells us nothing about Hause’s wages. You may as well have said ‘the overall wage bill was £119m, so dividing that by 45, multiplied by 8, take away the number you first thought of, now look at football manager to find out that the tea lady is getting £12.50 an hour.’ Anyway, all that is moot. £8k, £20k, is not the issue. Calling someone a wasteman (I know it wasn’t you) for signing a contract that was offered to him. Calling said contract ‘big’ whilst not actually knowing what that contract is. Criticising the contract when you have no clue with regards to the terms of the contract.. is odd. MAYBE we got a loan fee of £500k. MAYBE they paid all his wages. MAYBE he cost is literally nothing, or MAYBE we even made a profit. MAYBE we made a small loss, but had a recall option which made the loss worthwhile? Who knows? But I doubt we looked at the situation and thought ‘you know, we don’t need you, but what heck, here’s £1m/yr for jokes. Enjoy.’
