Moderator OutByEaster? 19,784 Posted July 13, 2010 Moderator Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 It's pretty quiet everywhere to be honest. Could be the world cup, could be the recession, could be the new squad rules, but no-one is really doing nay business. Link to post Share on other sites
CarewsEyebrowDesigner 11,182 Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 Yeah...It's a bit too quiet for my liking. There is only one explanation... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Link to post Share on other sites

Reality 0 Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 In fairness I have came to accept the quietness at Villa these days. And also it is pretty quiet every where else. Be rest assured though that behind the scenes it will be quite frantic. Link to post Share on other sites

Ponky 3,328 Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 Do people buy these stories going around about us being unable to find buyers for the fringe players like Shorey & Young because of their wages & this blocking our ability to buy new players. I know this whole sell to buy thing has been a misinterpretation of Randy's words but maybe there is no smoke without fire? But why would you be not prepared to take a wage cut to go elsewhere if it meant you were actually playing? Link to post Share on other sites

Because greed is never satisfied. Or, to put it another way, would you take a pay cut to go to a place where the only difference is that they are willing to train you?

Rob182 6,730 Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 The Times says we're in for Bayer Leverkusen's Switzerland international midfielder Tranquillo Barnetta. Never heard of him? So they either got that rumour from VT or Twitter. I reckon 99% of the people on this site could be a "sport reporter". I'll see if I can pre-empt Tomorrow's "news"... I've heard from a friend near the club that we're going to make a bid for Javier Mascherano. He's not confident that Liverpool have ambition and he has fallen out with Rafa Benitez so won't move to Italy. The rumour is that we're putting in a £10m bid as soon as we sell Milner.

Though we do sign a lot of players in some windows, it's still silent around VP. Nothing comes out for weeks and then all of a sudden we'll sign 3 players in 3 days.

TJVilla 28 Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 I would like to see us having a look at Annan from Rosenborg. I thought he was immense in the World Cup. We really could do with a 'makalele' player in our team who works effectively. Does the simple things well and keeps us ticking over by just sitting infront of the back 4.
