  1. My only concern is.....is he up for it? 31, coming to the closing stages of his career. Going to be picking up 100k a week for 1 more season, I'm not worried about his ability. Seen enough of him to know when he's at it he's unplayable....but has he got the stones or the willingness to dig in & fight when we need it.

    I hope he sees if he can get back to a good level how much we'd improve in the final third. But all I can imagine him thinking is "I don't need this move": it all comes downs to if he still has the desire to play. Sit on his arse picked up 100k or potentially be scrapping it out at the bottom end of the prem (that's not to be negative more what we prob is thinking)

  2. Solid signing, especially for the fee reported.

    Got to be honest, a back 4 of Hutton, Richards, Lescott and Amavi is pretty decent defensively imo.

    Think that back 4 would be very good, Lescott brings some much needed PL experienced. Think he'd of jumped at the chance knowing he could partner Richards.

  3. Guy who runs the QPR supporters trust tweeted Austins off to Man U

    @RobertQPRST: Reliably informed that Charlie Austin will undergo his Man Utd medical tonight. Fee around £15 million + add ons. I wish him all the best.

    Just passing on what I saw with people mentioning him.

  4. Quite a few positives. Richards/Hutton/Gana/Sanchez/Sinclair all played well....Sanchez first half was excellent, Gestede is a constant nousence but he is very limited, seems to take him forever to get on the turn.

    Just lacked a bit of invention once they sat back for the draw.

  5. Completes our defence, IMO. We aren't going to get an Ottemendi type are we, even players like that who in my opinion aren't of the elite level of day 10 years back are going for ridiculous money.

    We already have potential in Okore, a forgotten man by many. There isn't a better move we could make IMO.

    Hope it happens.

    Still think we lack a rightback but I think he does compliment Richards very well.

  6. Was very poor last night, how Sinclair got hooked off instead of him left me baffled.

    I'm not writing him off, but he needs to improve quickly or he's going to get lost in the shuffle with Gil, Grealish and Adama to come in.

    I don't think Sherwood particularly rates Sinclair, think he's only

    Playing now due to injuries else where. Will soon find himself on the bench I think.

    Sherwood doesn't rate SInclair yet signed him? What's the next story - he had no say in making the loan agreement permanent?

    No he didn't. It was set that we stay up the deal becomes permanent, even Sherwood said at a press conference he had no idea that deal was already set.

  7. Two specialist defenders in the side no counting Richardson and you are asking for trouble. All NC are doing is pumping high balls into our half. We need to calm down and retain the ball.

    It was one of the 'specialists' that handed them the first goal.

    Regardless....this is a poor selection.

  8. Why are Roma looking to offload? He looks a decent player, still young, good scoring ratio last season and hasn't cost them too much??

    The Italian league is actually quite poor now, I mean Juve r obviously excellent but the rest of the league isn't all that now. The lure of prem is huge in terms of exposure/money so possible the player wants out.
  9. Like Richards.

    Amavi - Lescott - Okore - Richards

    That would be a top defence

    (I'm not keen on Richards at centre back)

    Seriously...Richards isn't going to play rightback. Why people continually post it I don't know.
    Because that is my opinion.
    He's a centre half. Not a rightback.
    Southgate was a midfielder.
    An extremely defensive midfielder at that. Bought at the time to play centre half...like Richards.

    Richards has been bought, told, does & will play centre half. He is no longer a rightback, that is his role for villa.

  10. Like Richards.

    Amavi - Lescott - Okore - Richards

    That would be a top defence

    (I'm not keen on Richards at centre back)

    Seriously...Richards isn't going to play rightback. Why people continually post it I don't know.
