supermon Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 If we could sign a decent striker then this could be a great window for us. What a difference a week can make.

Neil Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 don't mean to pick on anyone but can we please stop referencing their bloody ratings on FIFA....... Makes me cringe every time and I can't be the only one?! I had honestly presumed that everyone talked about these comparisons in absolute jest, I'm only just realising that some people are actually making comparisons with justification... ...there is no comparison, no matter how remote...it's a game man. Blimey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubby Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/transfers/aston-villa-close-in-on-liverpool-target-jordan-veretout-as-nantes-president-admits-defeat-10420897.html It's in the Independent now Aston Villa close in on Liverpool target Jordan Veretout as Nantes president admits defeat Aston Villa are confident of beating Liverpool and Tottenham to Nantes midfielder Jordan Veretout after the French club's president admitted a deal is 'basically agreed'. The talented 22-year-old has been linked with a move to the Premier League this summer and, following Fabian Delph's controversial departure to Manchester City this month, Tim Sherwood has stepped up his chase in recent weeks. Villa have reportedly agreed a fee in the region of £10.4m for the France Under-21s star but Liverpool and Spurs are monitoring the situation and are ready to strike if talks break down They called us the Villains, no cred in their reporting of this story whatsoever now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me cringe every time and I can't be the only one?! It making you cringe is hardly a good reason to stop. You may not like it, but is is a general way of gauging players some of us are not quite clued up on. Even if, as I've said, some players ratings are a little off based on who they play for. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulver Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Can't see anyway we'd sell Clark after last season. Not to mention believing we'll sign Veretout, Praet and aonter midfielder Not to mention Grealish, Gil and Westwood But you never know i guess.

itdoesntmatterwhatthissay Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 don't mean to pick on anyone but can we please stop referencing their bloody ratings on FIFA....... Makes me cringe every time and I can't be the only one?! Sign of the times! Why bother watching someone play when FIFA can guess their ratings. Don't know a whole deal about Veretout. I watch French football on TV so you don't see the whole pitch but in attack he's not the greatest and I don't think he's what we need, I'm sure Sherwood knows though. At £10m I'd definitely have gone for Hughes, neither are defensive monsters so we might as well add some guile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larscapaldi Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Been reading through some french forums about him and they do rate him highly. Also they reckon both Liverpool and Spurs made a bid around €15M, whereas we only bid €10M, so it is believed there will be one of our players going the other way (Hopefully Zog). For the record, I have just summarised what I read 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
