lapal_fan Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 He's not going to come here, if we're not willing to give him more than 20k a week. He could/probably will get more by leaving us at the end of the season and considering his options - I will be very suprised if we break our current wage structure for him. I'm in the "play our players" camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Unfortunately we shouldn't hold our breath for a permanent deal. Why do you say this? Believe he has a better offer elsewhere. I think he's enjoyed it at Villa but he could be at a higher level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 I'm not that bothered if we miss out on him anyway to be honest. On the whole he has been decent but nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 i think he's been distinctly poor to be honest , maybe he's just not fussed as he's only on loan or maybe he just isn't that good to start with that we've had so many poor left backs of late makes me wonder if there isn't a curse on the place last half decent LB was probably Alan Wright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sir_gary_cahill Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 I'd like to see Bertrand come here permanently but I'd doubt that he'd want to come here, he was brilliant on his debut against Liverpool, had been solid if unspectacular since then 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I thought he was bloody awful yesterday, but perhaps we are dragging him down to our level of shite play? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Aye could be, Luna also started off well. Seems a curse on the LB spot as others have said with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreveryoung Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Lambert's dragging him down with the rest of them. fantastic in his first games, guess his been told now to limit his position and football!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condimentalist Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 He's been decent for us but he hardly looks out of place in this team and that says something. If we're not taken over and he's affordable then I hope we go for him as he's solid enough and can improve with regular games. If we're taken over I think perhaps we could aim higher, but maybe that's unfair on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted April 27, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted April 27, 2014 He is one of the guys I think could stay, even if we're taken over by someone willing to spend. He'd be much better with better quality around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
