  1. The guy is just not worth the money. Twenty million pounds max.
  2. All that proves is that there aren't any travel-ready aliens within 20 or 30 light years of us. At least no hungry ones, anyway.
  3. These signs are great. Think of the time saved figuring out whether someone is worth the time of day or not.
  4. A drumstick and a freddo The kid looks about 10 years old Jeez, a drumstick and a freddo. That's...incredibly cheap. There must have been, like, five minutes left on his existing contract.
  5. You could just call him something similar, but slightly different like, say, just Dave. Nice enough name that. A bit nerdy, but...
  6. I agree he still has to prove himself. Merely being the disgruntled possessor of a wet noodle does not necessarily mean that a man is a good carpenter. - Parable of Diplodocus
  7. I'm pleased he decided not to turn out tor Togo. It can only be downhill from the Togolese Zidane.
  8. I applied a little ointment and they've cleared up nicely, thanks for asking.
  9. You may be right, and then again you may be wrong. I'll just quote this here to use against you in future if he bangs them in, as he well might
  10. Yeah, exciting times looking forward to watching our new signings play, particularly Gueye, Amavi...and Carles Gil.
  11. Likewise. That assist at about 2 min. 30 is amazing. I don't remember any Benteke videos from before he joined the Villa showing class like that. We'll be lucky to get this bloke. I don't really want to watch it. Just gets my hopes up, and one of the following happens 1. We don't get him in, and if we do, 2. He'll end up like Tonev. More likely to end up like Benteke, as you'd agree if you were to bother to actually watch the video Mind you, that comes with its own heartache.

  13. I admit I didn't realise he'd done quite so well. Still can't see him joining being a good thing. Would rather the place went to someone young and unknown, and season ticket buyers will probably agree. Maybe it comes down to price, wages and length of contract.
  14. It would be amazing if we signed Adebayor. Our signings so far make absolute sense: Young, motivated players with huge potential. So signing an old, un-motivated player who hasn't had potential for at least six years would be amazing. Hope we don't.
  15. That's okay, not everyone needs to be able to click their fingers or throw a ball or open a jar with a tight lid.
  16. I can get you a toe by 3 o'clock this afternoon, with nail polish.
  17. Almost certainly enough to pay three good players, anyway.
  18. Four words I'd like to see in newspapers a year from now: Liverpool flop Christian Benteke I'm probably a mean-spirited, small-minded shit, and I don't care.
  19. Delph would have been bought for his passport too, and he knows it. I doubt he'd be on 60k more, 40k more sounds closer. And he'd be at the mercy of Man City using their limitless budget to bring in a midfield superstar to take his place in the queue. Money-wise it's a no-brainer, but it's a big, big risk football-wise, and who knows, maybe loyalty was even a small factor?
  20. Yeah I thought he was fine too. Good in defence at least okay in attack. But if we can get Amavi in it's probably an improvement, so what the hell.
  21. "Former Liverpool fullback" Grrrrr..... rocket polishers.
  22. If Benteke doesn't get one of his "dream moves" he has only himself to blame. If he'd simply won us the FA Cup singlehandedly, someone would have coughed up the money by now.
  23. She's let the beard grow a bit since I had her.
  24. From everything I have read, we would have to accept the bid. However I can't imagine that the staff members at Villa park will be rushing and running to make sure paper work goes through on time. I imagine the fax machine might be on the blink too Yeah I s'pose they could argue that their time was necessarily taken up finding a replacement, so sorry it couldn't be done in time and good day to you.
