tinker Posted July 15, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted July 15, 2011 Press are all over this now like a rash "£20m is he worth it?" type questions. The pressure on him is going to be growing and I dont think hes the type of person to deal with it TBH, we really could have the last laf with this one.

Morpheus Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 It might also stop Bent having a word with his agent I strongly suspect that conversation has already taken place Not a chance. Either way it will happen quite soon if we don't bring quality in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NowDoINotLikeThat Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 So what exactly happened to the reported 'Downing not going anywhere bar £50 million' that McLeish allegedly had said to fans in the fan meeting?? As pointed out by another poster - just read below what MysteryMan said after the meeting with McLeish .

Stu_The_Villan Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 Does it really matter? We sold him, got a very good price for him, and are about to replace him with a player who is just as good for half the price. Why keep bringing this shit up??

Lombardo Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 its amazing how much bullshit some ppl can swallow Your name suits you... There's a difference between bullshit and good business sense that you of the Football Manager generation don't understand. Sick and tired of hearing these types of comments.

Villaboy69 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 I really liked Downing as a player but 20 million quid is a fantastic bit of business. Re invested wisely and we will all be happy and he'll soon be forgotten I'm sure of that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnlyOne Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 If Randy spends all of the Downing money we could possibly get Given, N'zogbia and Parker if everything goes well. It's kind of funny now actually. Are we really going to miss a guy who can't be arsed to backtrack? http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xd5caq_manchester-city-vs-aston-villa-3-1_sport Around 0:28. One of the worst displays in a Villa shirt. No effort whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 doesn't backtrack? did a fine job on Ashley Cole last year who was a big attacking presence for Chelsea at the time. His positioning is very good, so just because he weren't running around like a maniac diving into tackles doesn't mean he wasn't doing his job.

Cracker1234 Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 stephen1martin Stephen Martin #LFC have paid £18.5 million for Downing but also allowing Villa to consider one loan agreement and to speak to two players about a move. Wouldn't shock me if that's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
