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. Because not everyone has the means to watch every Ligue 1 game whereas a lot of people do have games such as FIFA and FM, so what's wrong with using that as a baseline judgement? And I can guarantee those types of comments only come out when talking about players who don't play in the Premier League, Championship or Champion's League, if we were trying to sign Joey Barton you wouldn't be seeing comments saying "well, he is rated high 70's on FIFA, he could be good" because most people will have seen someone like Barton regularly so can gauge his ability more from what they've seen rather than having to make hesitant guesses about his ability on the limited knowledge pool they have. Everyone has the means, but do they have the inclination! It's not really a baseline judgement it's some guy deciding a rating on how much they like the player or where they think they play, not for everyone but for most. FM i'll give you, they have an established network of scouts which have been operating for years and years and they sell their data to clubs. Discussing FIFA ratings starts conversation but more than anything it examples the lack of attention people give to rating a player. Many fans used to watch to judge, now they think FIFA can provide them a baseline opinion, it can't and it doesn't. it simply examples laziness, if you don't know about a player it's much better to say so or ask whether someone else does. Definitely not having a go at you though, just making a general point attributed to a previous discussion. Back on topic, Veretout is a prospect so once again Sherwood has done something we're not used to, beat the competition. Fair play to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wezbid Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 So, Anthony Jordan Martial or Karim Mustafa Jordan Benzema to come in and play up-front. In all seriousness, if we do pull off Veretout (oo-er) maybe that would give us a slight chance of Martial (assuming we have any interest). Or we can get Giroud when Benzema signs for Arsenal. It's all coming together. Roger Boli is on stand-by if we can't complete any of those deals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omariqy Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Most deals are paid in instalments. Therefore chances are we won't be forking out all the money straight away on our purchases. So it should net out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VILLAMARV 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 They're just casting us as the bad guys.
