Zatman Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 He would have. A three year deal for a player who will turn 34 this season is an offer not many clubs would match tbf.. Whilst he has never had pace, that is a hell of a risk to be taken. Is Michael Standing still his agent? He can plan his retirement off this one. we would have offered 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Has Guy Medel not been linked with a move away from Cardiff yet? He'd be just what the doctor ordered for our midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derryvillan Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Has Guy Medel not been linked with a move away from Cardiff yet? He'd be just what the doctor ordered for our midfield. Indeed.But they bought him for £11m on a four year deal and after a good World Cup tis a no goer I'd say.Linked with Inter as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosenthal Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 don't like picking players from tournaments but that Yeltsin Tejeda could do a job in front of our back 4 and has energy to burn. Plus I doubt he would cost anything out of our budget Celso Borges is another one from that Costa Rica team, versatile, very strong character. Shouldn't be too expensive playing his football in Sweden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wainy316 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Can anybody think of any plausible left backs we could go after? I need to start a new game on FM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovers13 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I wonder if Villa could get Brian Oviedo on loan? Probably not, but he seems too good to be a backup and Martinez is a big fan of loans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 (edited) Paul Lambert has made seven players available for transfer as he bids to raise funds at Aston Villa. Lambert will listen to offers for £3million defender Joe Bennett and Scotland international Alan Hutton, plus a number of last summer’s signings including Aleksandar Tonev and Antonio Luna. Nicklas Helenius became the first departure on Wednesday after completing a return to Danish club Aalborg on a season-long loan, barely 12 months after arriving for £1.2million. And Lambert is also keen to shift fringe players Yacouba Sylla, Chris Herd and Enda Stevens as he desperately attempts to shake up his squad. The Villa manager met with owner Randy Lerner on Tuesday and emphasised once again that funds are sorely needed to strengthen the squad, despite the growing uncertainty over the club’s future direction. Lerner will make some money available and has promised that all funds Lambert raises through player sales will go towards potential new recruits. However, Villa are almost certain to face great difficulty offloading many of the players who have failed to make an impression over the past two seasons. Bennett, signed from Middlesbrough in 2012, was effectively replaced last season by Spanish defender Luna but both left-backs have struggled, leading to the arrival of Chelsea’s Ryan Bertrand on loan in January. West Bromwich Albion are interested in taking Hutton but the defender will have to take a pay cut in order to move across the West Midlands. Darren Bent, the club’s £24million record signing, has attracted interest from Turkish clubs Fenerbahce and Trabzonspor but may earn a surprise reprieve under Lambert due to injuries to Christian Benteke and Libor Kozak. Lambert has made another appointment to his back-room staff by bringing in Andy Marshall as goalkeeping coach http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/aston-villa/10958016/Aston-Villa-manager-Paul-Lambert-ready-to-offload-seven-players-to-raise-transfer-funds.html Edited July 10, 2014 by theboyangel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 That lot should raise another 500k or a million to add to his remaining money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Tom Ince signs for Hull for as little as 3.5 million incredible, you can't tell me Hull have more funds than we do, takeover or no takeover So much for re-joining Liverpool or playing for Inter. He is vastly overrated. That price is probably more reflective of his overall ability. Senderos rule invoked. Give him a chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomaspg Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 So if we sell those 6 players we will have about 50p to spend on new ones. Dire times indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chap of Steel Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Surely we'd get at least a million for Hutton? He plays international football regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonVillian Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I say we would get 3m for those players Luna, Bennent, Hutton around a million each. Sylla about 500k 50p for Herd and Stevens - buy one get one free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
