HeyAnty Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 To be honest, talking about Makoun is a waste of energy for your fingers. He dont wanna be here, he aint coming back, who cares what he's doing. He never got much of a chance at villa. Allot less able players got more of a chance in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 NRC could be a decent option for the rest of the season.Mind you he did not look too clever for Ipswich last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyAnty Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Agree with you heyanty Can't speak English... I'm sure Lambert is hard to understand at best of times Makoun has been told he would be considered again this season under Villa's new boss, Paul Lambert, but the 29-year-old has not yet returned to England because of work permit complications. And MirrorFootball understands one of those complications is his inability to pass the English language test, after he discontinued lessons while he was living in Greece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_gary_cahill Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 I wish we'd get him back, him and Westwood would be great in the middle for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel1Avfc Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 NRC could be a decent option for the rest of the season.Mind you he did not look too clever for Ipswich last week. His problem at villa is he was used as a box to box player and this isn't what he is. I just remember him always fluffing his shots wide. NRC is a CDM (the role that he played at west ham, that he did so well for them there that he became their captain and of course why villa bought him) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were that desperate we want to sign a player who no one even wants in championship. I'll say it now and said it before, our best hope of getting quality players is via loan deals to end of season with options to buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NRC is a CDM (the role that he played at west ham, that he did so well for them there that he became their captain and of course why villa bought him) thats wasnt us that was him! he has done interviews claiming that he wasnt a DMC, that he was a box to box player who liked going forward, but he was **** useless when he got forward! he's probably the only player ive ever seen that could find more blind alleys than nzogbia, couldnt shoot, if he saw himself as a ball winner who then gave it to a better midfielder then maybe he's have been half decent, instead he won the ball and tried to do something that hardly ever worked id be gutted if he came back, shit player who thinks far too much of himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyAnty Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Can we afford loan deals though? If we can't then were better going down and building a young team properly, then coming back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted January 13, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted January 13, 2013 He never got much of a chance at villa. Allot less able players got more of a chance in my opinion I suspect that's because when Houllier left Makoun didn't want to play for the club anymore. He just strikes me as a player who never settled here, and didn't really want too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted January 13, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted January 13, 2013 Yeah I think we should try and loan some quality players. Not sure who though. I don't care if there's no view to buy, if we loan players who can help keep us up that's good enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel1Avfc Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Yes i know NRC isn't the best but im just saying worst case scenario then... The thing about Loan to Buying players is that teams wont do it unless the player is out of favour there. Ive said this before sorry for repeating it, but i think we should try Loan to Buy Rolando from Porto, he hasnt been a first team player this season and i believe its realistic. He was part of the porto team that knocked Man City out of the europa league a couple years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradarmstrong_ Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Mikael Silvestre on a 6 month contract could do a job for us. CB cover and bit of experience in the dressing room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaGoMarching Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Probably complete toss but thought i'd share it .... Football_Consultant1 @Football_Consu1 Stephen Ireland could be leaving Aston Villa very soon. A bid has been made for him from a London Club. #avfc If only, I'd happily drive him to the next unfortunate club to land him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
