Nabby Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Wasn't he quoted that he wanted to stay? can't say i'm too pleased with this.. depending on the replacements I don't know what to think yet. Could of been advised to sya that by agent probably a cash issue ,loyalty payment or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie09 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Would've liked to see him get a run in the team after having had a full pre season - we'll never really know how good he is but certainly a quality player. Just not sure how suited he is for the premiership. Really hope McLeish has signings lined up........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markavfc40 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 No surprise. Hopefully he will be replaced by someone actually suited to playing in the Premier League and who will actually be used by the manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troglodyte Posted August 28, 2011 VT Supporter Share Posted August 28, 2011 Can we have Olof in exchange? Just to scowl at people from the bench? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve-67 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I'll wait until this is confirmed before telling you how angry I am that another player has left the club. That would be four in just 3 days!! If it's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaRoy Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Make that 3 players out and 1 on loan. Who have we lost now then presuming this goes through. Reo Coker Ashley Young Jean Makoun Luke Young Jonathan Hogg John Carew Brad Freidel Steve Sidwell Isiah Osbourne Robert Pires Salifou Then youngsters Harry Forrester, Arsenio Halfhuid, Durrell Berry, Ellis Deeney and Calum Flanagan. Total of 16 players out. I wouldn't totally rule out Cuellar going now or January either. We bring in 2 players (so far). Very very poor. Recon a squad of the players released sold would give our current squad a run for their money over 90 mins? I do! Edit: Forgot Downing and the two loan players that left, Walker/Bradley. Thats 19 gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houlston Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 If this is true its disappointing but cant say i'm surprised I had a feeling at the end of last season he would be off. Whilst he hasnt exactly set the place a light, when he did play well I thought he was excellent to watch and really enjoyed his one touch passing which made for a nice change.

OnlyOne Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 So that's 19 players we've let go and only brought in 2? At least we're not Everton according to some on here! The ****? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AVFC-Prideofbrum Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Out of the list of players, (not including Makoun as apart from twitter, nothing concrete??) Reo-Coker, Young, Downing, L.Young are the only one's I'd bring back that were permanently on our books. We've replaced Young/Downing with N'Zogbia. So I think we've 'lost' 3 players since last season, weakened ourselves by signing N'Zogbia as a replacement for Young/Downing, although strengthened in goal. So yeah, make a list as big as possible, we're only really, 3 players down. IMO we'll still get someone in before then anyway. 19 out... 2 short term loans. Pires, Salifou, Osbourne, Hogg, Carew, Sidwell. A bunch of youngsters. No doubt we SHOULD sign another 2-4 players but some people make it seem as if we should be replacing these players.
