I agree about the claim cluture, was reading an article in the week it adds £90 to each car policy in the UK. But to say companies 'loss' money is false. They pass the cost on. It's like running a book at a bookies, you pay out less than you take in. If you don't your running your 'book' incorrect.

Jesus wept. Media miss quotes, media making it up, blah blah blah. But only when it suites. Look at the 'facts'. The way 'he' treated Genk to get what 'he' wanted. Nuff said. This is getting really boring.

That and the club not getting maximum value from the transfer.

When do the players return from holidays back to work?

There is to much leverage in the hands of the club to not accept a low ball offer, regardless what the player wants.

You sir are correct, 100% spot on.

6m and a years wages saved. Not bad.

Indeed. But being linked is a start.

The Lambert appeal. Players want to play for you. Jeez, this manager is good.

Lazy journalist - should be shot. Why on earth would Lambert's Villa (or Lerner's for that matter) take on a 30 year old striker as part of any potential deal between Spurs and us for Benteke? Not fitting the 'young and hungry cost cutting' ethos we now find ourselves in does it journo? Hmmmmm? Defoe would have been a great signing 5 to 10 years ago. But now, a final pay day... We're better than that actually. So sod right off and shuffle your chins in another direction. Maybe not lazy, could have happened. But given that we are trying to offload Bent and the Milner deal fresh in Randy's mind you would hope he actual laughed when the offer was put to him.

An out and out striker. Is someone/are some on the way out then.

I agree posted the same above.

If he is not willing to sign an extension to his contract then what's the point of giving him a pay rise. I have no problem selling for something above 30m, if that's made available to Lambert to spend. If Benteke starts throwing his toys out the pram to get a move where the fee is to low. Then Villa should just throw him in the reserves and sell after the world cup next year. Time the Villa started playing hardball.
