dn1982 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Just seen on SSN Koeman being asked about Andros Townsend. His reply, "I cant say anything about that". Haha either must be learning or is taking the piss Keane has been on the phone and told him how things are done!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_gary_cahill Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 (edited) i thought he was superb today, he marshalled the defence really well, i really hope we don't lose him this summer, i don't think we will for what it's worth Edited August 23, 2014 by sir_gary_cahill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasabian21 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 For me it all depends on how we do this season. If we do much better than last season (not only in terms of performance but signings also) I can see him staying on with us, if not then he'll be off.

beasley14 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Absolute rock, must keep him if we are to do well. Breeds confidence into the whole team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Quotes from Lambert yesterday on BBC: "I've not had one phone call from anybody as long as I'm here Ron Vlaar won't be going anywhere. I know he's in his last year but he won't be moving that's for sure." Fingers crossed and all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingman Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 So glad he shrugged off that early knock, i was about to cut the grass at the thought of sendros and baker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAuthority Posted August 24, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted August 24, 2014 It's entirely possible that Vlaar wouldn't want to go to Manure and doesn't like LVG. He does appear to be a complete rocket polisher so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't get along with van Gaal at AZ, but he said he's since grown up a lot and got over it iirc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 What if on deadline day Utd are panicking because of a lack of options and bid £15m for Vlaar. I think the board would take it and Vlaar would go. Maybe Micah Richards could be a replacement. I know he has played a lot at RB, but I'm sure he has played as a CB as well. This is exactly why I cannot relax until the transfer window closes. I wouldn't get too worried about ghost stories. Yeah, I wouldn't worry. I'm a rubbish storyteller. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) Ron Vlaar m'lord... Think the transfer thing has passed now, he'll be here this season so enjoy as I don't see him signing a new deal. Looks pretty secure now at prem level. Down to two things...a ridiculous amount of confidence gained from a superb world cup and also now having experienced defenders around him so no longer having to tell a group of YTS lads were to stand and when to push up for offside as the other players know when to do that.

He was already very good before the World Cup though. It annoys me that pundits are acting as if he's only just started playing well. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heid3ster Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 It's annoying but not really surprising given the number of goals we've shipped in the last two seasons. He can't do it all on his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdulaziz1 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 It's annoying but not really surprising given the number of goals we've shipped in the last two seasons. He can't do it all on his own. We've shipped around 23 in our last 8 though. We've only lost by a margin of 3 against Utd at home. We only shipped 38 goals before that from 30 games, Which is pretty decent. Actually comparing with our bad record scoring goals, We would still have got +1. I don't think Ron played our worse December run. which we concieded more than around 9 from 5 none against a top 6 side (assuming Man Utd weren't). Have we actually won a game without him ?! Other than Southampton where we had the lead when he was there. So wouldn't count that as he played a part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSV Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 i dont think Van Gaal will be at Utd long either.. so he may want to consider that... whether thats a good thing or bad thing.. Man Utd are not the Man Utd of old anymore. Most likely miss out on top 4 again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViolaVillan Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Just seen that Southampton have been linked with that Belgian CB at Atletico Madrid. Alderwireld or something? Could hopefully signal the end of their interest in Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
