chappy Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Good move for all concerned. I hope he comes back brimming with confidence in his own abilities again after he is the outstanding player in a valiant, but ultimately unsuccessful, effort to keep them in the prem.

dudevillaisnice Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Apparently toon will pay 70% of his wages.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sellyoakvilla Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 As I said before good move for both parties involved. Will help Newcastle out a bit if they can get him playing plus will give him some playing time for when he returns. He's keen to play but is just competing with Young for the one position in the hole. Infact there's a short clip on SSN at the minute when they talk about him going off on loan where it looks like he's talking to Ash where he points at himself and says twice "Get the ball to me".

Zatman Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 well that would probably mean all his wages are off our book if 70% as im sure City are paying a lot of his salary. Think a loan spell and return could be brilliant for us as some players have went on loan and came back better players with better attitude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulver Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 He wont be coming back i'm pretty certain. Those bridges are burnt. Like O'Neill, best forget about him and move on That shouldn't be hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villafanalways Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 #nufc DON'T have an option to buy Stephen Ireland in loan deal. #avfc want him back in summer for a potential fresh start Matkendrick via Twitter. I really hope this is the case,if he comes back in a better mindset and with some fresh motivation and a clean slate,with a full pre-season behind him in the summer he could be a big player for us next season.VFA UTV!!!

David-Copenhagen Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Do a Milner with him - call the deal off and him back at 10.55 - we owe Newcastle that!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vreitti Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Do a Milner with him - call the deal off and him back at 10.55 - we owe Newcastle that!!! That would be awesome. Too bad we need to cut wages, if it where up to me I'd let Ireland rot in the reserves until someone would stomp up what we we 'paid' for him.

AValon Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Hope no-ones told the barcodes where we live? If he plays anything like he has here it'll be 'return to sender' and pretty damned sharpish!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan-scott Posted January 31, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted January 31, 2011 I hope he returns reinvigorated and hungry to make it here. After GH said only days ago that he was in his plans, I think given a run in the Newcastle team to get his confidence back and return to us in the summer like a new player, fingers crossed. Good luck Stevie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck Stevie! absolutely this! he has the ability but his personal confidence and life or whatever is causing his ability to be stifled on the pitch. if you feel shit, you don't work as well, whether it be in an admin centre or on the pitch playing football. he needs to sort his head out and then we will see the real Ireland.

The ITK's (Kendrick & Sellyoak) have both suggested that there is no view to buy, so I'm hoping this is the case and we can keep hold of him and see his ability in a Villa shirt.

Rich_D Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Get some games under his belt. Get his confidence back. Get him back in the summer. Have a good pre-season. Then we will have that Ireland kid we all thought we were buying. I didn't judge Ireland through his time here, I was just majorly disappointed. But lets face it, it is so much easier coming into a team that is performing well than one that is not. Also, if Ashley Young has been quoted last week saying he felt the world was on his shoulders because the team weren't performing and now that has gone since Bent joined, just imagine how Ireland must have felt.
