Popular Post Midfielder Posted June 10, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2017 2 hours ago, sne said: Classic "Nordic" attitude player like Mellberg or Laursen Oh how we could do with that. Someone to come in, do a job and do it well, week in, week out, EARN their wage, make the place their home. Someone the fans take to, their kids idolise for all the right reasons, in time possibly become captain and enforce said attitude on the ten who accompany onto the pitch and for the youth to absorb their professionalism, attitude and skill. To belong one day in the Villa hall of fame... Can but only dream of that type of signing. But you had me sold at the Mellberg and Laursen reference. We need another Mellberg, as many Mellbergs as possible. Mellberg, he gave a shit. We weren't the biggest club in the world and he could have left anytime sooner but he loved it here. He bought in to the club and the fans bought into him. A signing of that caliber would be incredible. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 4 hours ago, striker said: Granted but would you not want a younger more skilful energetic player than Whelan as first choice with Jedinak as backup rather than having two players nearing retirement vying for the same position? Whelan would be an awful agricultural, prehistoric signing to add to the other signings of the same ilk Villa have made over the years. Of course mate, I just thought it was being insinuated that we didn't need another DM because we have Jedinak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he reads the game very well and will do 100% job for 46 league games if asked to. Total professional, honestly feel he would be a perfect signing for us. And one we could actually pull off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's an over-rated show pony and I've probably seen more of him than anyone in here apart from the other ROI fans. Even at this level I'd rather not have him. I really dont rate him but in fairness to him he has probably come off his best season ever for Preston(I dont count anything done in Scotland) I still wouldnt want him, he is extremely frustrating and headless 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nnock1984 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 I reckon if we sign Whelan, Jedi would be first choice centre back next to Chester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KHV Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Frazier Campbell has had two decent seasons in his whole career. One of those was in the belgian second division and he hasn't had a good season for 10 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Whealan is the answer what the duck is the question. The reason we are shipping out Tish is because he is lazy and shit. He couldn't even make matchday squads at Forest and they are crap. I'm not a fan of signing Glenn Whelan but even he is a massive upgrade on the myth that is Tshibola. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
