Littlearthur Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Martin O'Niell is on the verge of a shock double swoop for Wesley Sneijder from Ajax and Phillipe Lahm from Bayern Munich, for around £15M. Sneijder, 22, a regular for the Dutch national team under manager Marco Van Basten, has been tracked by many top european clubs. Lahm, 21, who came to prominence during the World Cup with the first goal of the tournament for the host nation, is just the sort of attacking left back Villa have been hunting. This would continue Martin O'Niells policy of recruiting the best young talent available. Villa would love to sign both players but may have to settle for one, it is thought that the Sneijder deal is more likely to go through before the window slams shut, as Ajax have a history of selling off their players.

TRL Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 If we're to sign anyone between now and end of Wednesday we'd need to hear about it pretty quickly IMO Why? Because thats what I think. But didnt you just credit the clubs skills of keeping signings in the quiet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRL Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Love it when people bring in exceptions, like they are going to change everything. Err no, im just saying your statement is bollocks. Because? I am not doubting Aimar's talent, which is obvious, but everything else about him reaks FLOP So playing in the Spanish league, and small of size equals flop. Good to know... wouldnt want Fabregas would we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maradona10 Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Sneijder i believe but Lahm not a chance mate, they had bids over 15million from Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bully Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Littlearthur, that report doesn't even spell O'Neill correctly. Was it mommy Olive who told you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortereliable Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Where is this from?? I rate Lahm the best left back out there right now. Absolute quality! Sort of player hopefully who would consider coming in 2 to 3 years but I seriously doubt he would consider us right now..... Sneijder I haven't seen play enough...

Good to know... wouldnt want Fabregas would we? Again you are smacking back with a lame attempted counterattack, I don't even think Fabregas played in the Spanish league, let alone much! NO, I am talking about the Aimar many of us have seen numerous times, both for Valencia and the national team. I know for a fact that he is lazy, often dips in form (numbers out for all to see), often injured, often falls out with mangers (Hector Cuper), dives a lot and is very lightweight. Like I said, not someone we would like at Villa Park as he would flop easily. He is the kind of player Newcastle brings in, and destroys. And why use the word bollocks?

TRL Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Because i think what you said was MOD : Abuse edited. No need for it. Aimar is fantastic quality, and something we cant even remotely match at Villa. Dips in form? Who doesnt? Dives a lot? Seen the PL lately? Bringing in latin-american players in itself is dangerous due to the culture clash, but any chance on getting such a player should be taken. Beeing lightweight is no reason to call off a players future in the PL. I guess Ronaldo was a bad move by Fergie? Or maybe not? I think people dont realise the abilities of footballers like Aimar, and having him at VP would be simply outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
