  1. Even if that's the case, I still think we can get better than Gayle for £10m.
  2. I could never understand the calls for us to sign Gayle when we were in the Premier league. In the Championship he might do alright, especially at Newcastle and with decent players around him. But I'm not exactly heart-broken that he's gone to Newcastle. For example I'd much rather Ayew, if we can keep him, than Gayle
  3. I remember watching McCormack a few years back, at the time I remember thinking his style was quite similar to Wayne Rooney's. I've a feeling that we won't be trying to sign him, though.
  4. We've already brought in one Premier league player. In a way we're more likely to sign Premier league players than Championship ones.
  5. If not Benteke, maybe try for Ings, now that Liverpool have signed Mane.
  6. It doesn't really matter who's the best between Messi and Maradona, they're both not just world class within their eras but, all time greats.
  7. Everytime a job like this comes up, Nicolas Cortese always gets talked about, but never happens. Hopefully a name to give everyone some confindence.
  8. By the sounds of it, it's someone who's going to work not just for Villa, but the other clubs that Xia wants to buy, so should be a big job.
  9. Pretty offensive sign by Cressage. It's been vandalized but I'm surprised it hasn't been taken down completely.
  10. I don't but apparently Sels turned down Premier clubs to sign for them. I presume Ritchie will be a replacement for Andros.
  11. If he and Gayle sign and the goalkeeper that will be close to £30M they will have spent on three players. Ashley said at one time that the money had gone, but when it comes to it they always spend. That's why I wasn't keen on them getting relegated.
  12. Yes I didn't think it would be a realistic name with him being strongly linked to PSG and other big clubs. Just remember L'equipe linking us with him last summer.
  13. I know it's not going to happen, but last year we were linked to Luis Campos from Monaco, for the Technical Director job. He's just recently left them, was strongly linked to Paris Saint-Germain, but denied he's going there.
  14. Newcastle also reported to be signing Matt Ritchie from Bournemouth for £12m.
  15. Krul, is being linked with a move to Everton. So maybe that's why Newcastle have bought Sels.
  16. As long as we don't have to sell before we can buy, then I think we'll be fine. Once July hits, we'll probably start to see things happening.
  17. There's way too much sponsor on the shirt. Two lines of writing and a logo. I don't buy them myself, but I think for people that do, they should have the option of buying the shirt without the advertising, or even one with Acorns instead.
  18. Don't know how reliable they are but according to HITC on twitter, Dwight Gale has agreed personal terms with Newcastle United. I mention it in this thread because, I know he's been talked about as a possible Villa target.
  19. What ruins the away kit, is that one sleeve is baggier than the other. I don't wear football tops though, so it's not really my place to complain.
  20. Messi has already scored more club goals than Maradona in less appearences, I wouldn't be surprised if it's a similar story for assists. And he has a better goalscoring average at international level, despite playing with lower quality players, to the ones Maradona played with. I don't think Messi is vastly inferior to anybody.
  21. Marseille owner ( Margarita Louis-Dreyfus ) is worth 7 billion, according to google, but apparenlty she's lost interest in the club.
  22. Talking of the Spain job Del Bosque might be available soon.
  23. I don't think England should be going for someone who's only experience of top flight football is getting relegated. There are no standout English candidates, so better to go for someone like Pellegrini or even Emery (long shot) if he doesn't got to PSG or get the Spain job.
