JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I would personally prefer another.midfielder to be honest. If nothing happens though i dont think its end of the world. Sinclair looked good when he came on and Gil looks class. Still possible to do well with the right tactics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 fair enough if he's rejected, can't blame him really. He's only been at Liverpool a few months anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briny_ear Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 (edited) 21:09 BBC Sport reporter Ben Smith tells us that Rickie Lambert has decided to stay at Liverpool. Aston Villa, you have 100 minutes and £5m to find a striker. This is like the plot of Brewster's Millions.

bradarmstrong_ Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Had all window to bring in a striker. Why piss around on deadline day? Typical Villa. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yayoboy Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 (edited) I think Lambert could be a good signing, at least he'll show for the ball up top unlike the stationary Benteke. I think him and Weimann would work well together, drop Benteke to give him a kick up the arse and realise he's already at a big club ;-) Edited February 2, 2015 by yayoboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romavillan Posted February 2, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted February 2, 2015 He's two and a bit months younger than Joe Cole. I reckon he's got two season left in him, this one and one more. So that's about 18 months. For which we'll pay maybe £8-9m including the fee. That's half a million a month - or £120k a week. I'd take him on a free, but financially this is an appalling signing. Entirely true. However we paid £24m for Bent and he paid for himself by keeping us up. If we stay up £8m is a no brainer. In my opinion Bent is the worst signing in the clubs history. I don't want us to repeat that at any level. It is easy to say Bent kept us up but if we'd paid £8m for a player like Benteke (as in a young player proven in a smaller foreign league) we would have likely stayed up and not given Bent near £10m for sitting on the bench. It was really awful business looking back. However... I think Lambert would be on less wages, hopefully a short contract and no where near the fee. I don't think it would be too bad and I think a reason it hasn't happened sooner is we're making sure it is a financially sound transfer. Maybe. It's easy to say because he did. I am totally not saying it was the best way to spend the money, I think Bent was an unmitigated disaster long term. short term he was gold. Right now we need some short term solutions to our goal scoring problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather play Nathan Baker as a false 9 than Carlton Cole. I am being deadly serious. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
