ryanvilla_1994 Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 I don't understand why he'd come out and say he wants to sign and then suddenly change his mind. I'm dissapointed to be honest, thought he was better than that. Losing Ash and Downing in the same window would be catastrophic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qwpzxjor1 Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 If 'Arry goes to Chelsea I can see a bid coming in from there. Zhirkov and Malouda aren't exactly 'Arry style players, and I don't think he'll be able to sign Bale. Plus 'Arry was chasing him for Spurs for ages, before the 'emergence' of Bale.

Stu_The_Villan Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Crossroads in his life? Jesus wept he wasnt saying that when we were paying him fifty grand a week just to lie on a treatment table for six months. One good season and he wants to **** off?? I find it hard to believe because he seems like one of the good guys, but what a tosser if true. He owes us more an one good season. he should also look to milner as proof that the grass isnt always greener on the other side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PompeyVillan Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 **** footballers. I'm sick of signing players who view us as a stepping stone. How about you pull your **** socks up and get us into the Champions League. If you were that good Stewart, you and your mate Ashley Young and Barry before you would already be playing in the wretched competition. Bastards, the lot of them.

If they all stayed, we may be able to win things but they don't want to stay and we have to build again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaAlex Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 what did he win??. Something he'd never have seen here Same with Barry. How much did he contribute? It may just be me, but the medal would feel pretty worthless to me when I've only played the odd replay v lower division sides. When it came to playing the big boys Milner was no-where to be found. Barry I agree with as he had a significant contribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 See thing for me is people saying that it isn't Ambition it is money. The two are interwoven actually Ambition usually means that you want to move on to be successful, in football to win things. Well football aint difficult to win things you need the better players and they generally cost more money either in fees or wages so you can be ambitious but without the dosh it doesn't mean much. Then if you haven't got the dosh you temper your ambitions to maintain top 6 or have the occasional cup run for example, you just do not have the ambition to compete at the top end of the table Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
