Chris Coleman does not strike me as that much of an idiot to attempt such a thing. If we can even claw more than £2m for wonderboy it will be amazing.

rodders0223 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Sunderland wouldn't even cover his current contract if we let him go on a free. Dreaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So maybe he is not that intelligent either. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted December 10, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted December 10, 2017 Scored again today, this time his first from open play. Pray someone comes in for him in January and we can all move on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigel Posted December 12, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted December 12, 2017 (edited) Back to fitness and scoring again. This sure is a nicer problem than we had in the Summer! Edited December 12, 2017 by Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact he is doing this away from Bruce, in an equivalent league to that of the Vanarama Premier says it all about this player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 His link up play is actually improved again like it was under Di Matteo. He was so creative under RDM. I remember he had created more chances than anyone in the league. He struggled all round for Melbourne despite his goals.. but his game is slowly coming with his fitness. I would like to see him back in the squad if we cant afford to buy any one else. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted December 12, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted December 12, 2017 He is over at Aston Villa folks. No way he would have been sent to The Penal Colonies if he had any kind of future with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted December 17, 2017 Moderator Share Posted December 17, 2017 If it's his ACL he'll be out for the best part of a year - at 31 this might be it for him - there goes his resale value anyways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember you posting about him going on loan in Australia and doing his acl when we signed him, fair play!!! 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure his point is we spent big on him and over a year later he is playing on loan in Australia being paid by Villa 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted December 17, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted December 17, 2017 My god we really are cursed aren't we. Just as he's showing form which might tempt someone into an offer this goes and happens. Also it's immediately before his loan expires so he'll be straight back into our wage bill where he will stay for the rest of his contract now. It will be at least a year before he gets playing properly again (if ever) and another 6 months to find any form, then if he does play well 6 months for someone to decide if they want a punt on him which will be so close to the end of his contract it will be a free. Whenever we spend big it is always pissed into the wind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
