I'd be surprised if Flamini came to us..... Arsenal - AC Milan - Aston Villa Doesn't quite look right does it

Jordi Gomez, Jason Scotland, Gary Caldwell, Marcelo Moreno, Scott Sinclair, Ben Watson, Steve Gohouri all disprove this theory not all bargains pay-off and 3 of them were loan signings. What about N'Zogbia, Palacios, Valencia, Bullard, Rodallega, Figueroa even Bramble all bought for peanuts and became solid premier league players or better Valenica and Palacios have worked out really well for them, outside of those two though the rest are average at best. I reckon you could find many teams that have been able to source two good players in what, 5 years?

What complete and utter bollox I love that we can consider O Neill as shit in the transfer market and yet Wigan, are considered shrewd. I can't even be arsed to demonstrate how daft a comment that is.

Fecking hell!! That is steep! Don't the club normall market them for around £45 only for the likes of Sports Direct to sell them for like £35? I'll be honest, I normally get mine from Sports Direct, whilst I'd rather give the cash directly to the Villa I'm not prepared to pay £10 more for the pleasure.

I can't honestly believe there are 45 odd people on here who have voted no. I'm all for liberty etc but an instrument that on it's own has been proven to be louder than a chainsaw but with a more annoying noise should not be allowed anywhere near a football stadium. It worked in Africa because it's a very typical African instrument but I would be quite prone to shoving it up the users arse if it was near me.

People wind themselves up on here, we all do it...checking the forum every hour or so just to find that shock horror, there's been no news. If everyone just chilled the fook out for a while we'd all be happier. Players will come players will leave.

agreed but how hard would have been for them to make it claret rather than red? FxPro's logo is red which is why its red. Also, claret on black is hardly going to stand out is it? It's not as though they're likely to be happy about spending x amount of £ on a sponsorship deal that you can't even see from 40ft or further.....

Does go some way to explaining it.....no doubt now that there's proof of some form of thought process being involved there'll be a shift in opinions toward them......

Some people may have said the same thing about Ash Young before we signed him......though I must admit I've been largely unimpressed with him each and every time I've seen him, which doesn't bode well

I like em, guess I'm in the minority judging from the general consensus.... At least we genuinely have a 'new kit' to discuss and not just last years kit with a new bit of trim around the sleeve or a slightly altered collar........

Of course they are!! I didn't know it was in doubt! They do it every year, take a couple of action shots/poses from the previous season and digitally change the kit, tis not rocket science! I would suggest that they simply didn't do a Milner one because they cannot guarantee that he'll still be here. That's not to say that he's leaving but that there is a chance, which we all already know so it's hardly anything to worry about.

sorry smart arse I just wanna see the damn kit !!! i bet it will end up being horrible now Not sure Sky are screening the kit unveiling live this year.........

Man I'd love to have an away kit with a sash!!!!

Exactly, everyone buys new clobber every year anyway at some point, if you're gonna spunk money on clothes might as well be on Villa related clothing!! Although I don't think it would hurt to lower the prices down to about £30 adult, £20 junior......that's a whole other conversation tho......

....perhaps due to it being Forex's company slogan and therefore something they're proud of......

does look a bit 'hummel-y'

That's a little bit extreme Maradona10. You've got to love the hysterics the summer transfer window creates, depsite there not having been a major Premier League transfer yet (maybe apart from Benayoun which was lined up before the end of last season anyway), Joe Cole not having even made his mind up yet where he wants to play, players still returning from holidays/world cup etc...despite all this we still have to panic don't we? It's mental.

Which estate agents?

don't like change I don't...... :winkold:

Fair point and up until the Distin agent renagued on the deal we weren't but changed our attention once MON was let down . I also got the Defoe one wrong aswell ! To be fair MM I don't think you need to justify yourself to anyone. No-one's perfect but if I were to ever place a bet following an ITK on here it would be from you.....awwww xox Amen to that, brother! (^^ Not sure if you've heard, it's the new "this") So I've heard......what was wrong with: '^^ This' Simple and effective if you ask me..........seems a bit of a fingerful to type out amen to that bruvva!

I'm a big fan of MM's work but that was a little bit of an oops moment in retrospect......just happened to be immortalised on the internet

^^ can honestly say that's a new one on me.......never heard of the bloke!

Your comment regarding James Milner a few pages back is a disgrace imo I thought it was fair. He has got a massive square jaw !! You'll look pretty daft if he stays How?? Look back through my posts, im not a fan of Milners and never will be - also, staying or going has no bearing on the squareness of his massive jaw What?!? This has to be a wind-up! (the not rating him bit, he does have one seriously square jaw thing going on)

Because they proved last season, despite finishing 5th that they could mix it with the big boys both over the course of a season and on the day. Because they have already and will continue to spend masses of money on players such as David Silva and Carlos Tevez. They would have been close the top few if not for a few ridiculous draws early in the season (when Hughes was there incidentally) against the likes of Burnley etc. Even if they don't challenge strongly for the league this season they are going to be challenging strongly for the league before we will do, the sad fact is that for all know we might never strongly challenge for the league again. You cannot ask someone who has no geographical, cultural or historical attachment to Villa to turn down the chance to further himself by leaving. As for his position, I would say that it's fair to assume that Citeh's/Mancini's interest in Milner grew substantially once he had been switched into central midfield, if they bring him in it will be as a CM who can play on the wing if shit hits the fan. It's not as though they're short of wingers afterall is it?
