  1. I think he would be a decent signing. Hes a bit of a unit. Cant see Arsenal letting him go though.
  2. I think Blairs comments are showing up his ruthless side (one of his positive traits), labour is too soft. Whether it is the area I live in or the demographics that I am apart of a lot of people I know voted conservative but now complain every day about the conservatives. Labour IMO of course are the ones that the people want but havnt been tuned intot the people for a while so are unable to vocalise their policies in a coherent and precise way. Politics is a merry go round in which labour come in free up the funds, create some positive reforms and then get carried away and the consevervatives have to come in to rein it all back in. I will vote labour regardless of who is in charge of them but they need some one with a charisma and appeal that milliband just didn't have to win the next election.
  3. With the Austin link if I aus QPR I would he happy to let his contract run out if his goals got me back into the premiership, it's worth a £15 million loss for the tv revenue. Regarding Bolasie I imagine he is quite high up on final 3rd dribbles, amount of dribbles, players taken on stats so I think it's probably true he is on our radar because of our rumoured approach to transfers. However he's going to cost £20 million and can sometimes look like he can't control the ball or that he dosnt know what he's doing. Would be better off spending that money on 2/3 players if we can.
  4. Im just happy hes not going to playing for Tottenham

    Running

    Ive been nursing an injury to my Patella Ligament, Quad Ligament and a bursa in my knee. Will need to ease my self back into fitness to start playing football again. Anybody have any experience with this type of injury and a running routine to get back into it?
  6. I think his stats show it isnt an issue. Just precaution which is understandable with a purchase of that magnitude. Would be just Villas luck that it would effect him when he was here.
  7. Hes played 350 games scoring 216 goals over 9 seasons across different divisions hes been prolific in every division. Average of 38 games and 24 goals per season. Good enough for me.
  8. The model that we want to follow but we complain about. The initial investment has to come from somewhere, hopefully the Benteke money will be used for 3/4 £7-10 million signings who we sell for the same amount in 3 years time.
  9. Gueye and Amavi both featured in sky sports top 10 premier league new comers based on who scored ratings. I have no doubt we are taking a very statistical approach to our recruitment not just the eyes of our scouts. It is something I like about modern football. Let's hope there are 4/5 more that we are in for.
  10. Think you might a need a defib as there will soon be a physical picture
  11. I very rarely play with real players. I normally start with Villa figure out some tactics and then after a few seasons start new in Division 1 or 2 with fake players and go from there.
  12. I think we will pull of some surprise results as well as some spankings by teams out of form and playing shit. We will be a punters nightmare this season. I'm confident we will be better than last season in not only position, but entertainment and performance.
  13. I think we've spent £15 million of what was probably a £30 million budget (no source) and with £40 million in sales minus what ever goes to Genk we have a war chest this summer. Confirmed Richards - free Sinclair - £1-2 million Gueye - £7million Amavi - £8 million Of the ones linked I'd like to see us sign Darder £8 million Pràet £8 million Townsend £12 million Austin £15 million Oulare £7 million Ryan/heaton £3 million Not sure on likelyhood of fees but that would take us up to £70 million for the window and much stronger than how we finished last season
  14. I don't get people wanting Martial and Embolo to replace Benteke they are 19 and 18. Age isn't everything of course and Mitrovic and Bamford are not much older but have shown more. I'm certain we will not start the season with a 19 year old leading the front line. We cannot sign a front man who we expect to deliver the same as Benteke, we need to build a sqaud that scores goals. We won't replace Benteke like for like and I agree we will need two. I've been conditioned to expect Ricky Lambert and jordan Bowery. How about a duo Owen and Heskey, Crouch and Defoe. I think I'm stuck in a loop.
  15. If we sign: Darder Praet Amavi Townsend Bamford (loan) we are in a better position than we finished the season. Much stronger first team but having lost our only scorer of the last 3 seasons. We are not going to find another player to deliver it on his own so the money really needs to go across the whole squad.
  16. I used to play football with a lad called Haj. He dosnt know anything.
  17. You're a relegation threatened club who has just sold their best player and a team that has won 2 titles in 4 years has just put in for him. If you think this is about money then you're just not paying attention. id saying considering all the loyalty statements and then last week saying hes staying...if he does got City hes another money grabbing England international for man city to ruin 50k to stay villa captain or 70k to sit on the bench and chat to nasri dzeko bony Just like Milner and Barry were never going to play and were money grabbing international to be ruined by City? Both now have Premier League winners and FA Cup winners medals, and both played in the Nou Camp and Bernabau with Milner excelling away in Munich. I wish people would ruin me like that. uh oh
  18. Should we? Never really rated him... 6ft 2in with a better scoring record than Benteke in the same league, hes 20 years old and has Champions League experience. If we are going to pay £10 million+ hed be a much better option than Embolo that has been mentioned by some.
  19. Saying no probably got Delph another £50k per week. * If its true
  20. If Newcastle get Mitrovic I will not be happy. We should be in for him at £12 million.
