nobler Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Palacios would be up there with the Djemba twins as the most nothingness signing ever, wouldn't make a blind bit of difference and could be easily worse than Delph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyBM Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 the only money that went to waste was on bennett, which is only a couple of million, so its not really an issue benteke, worth every penny of £7m el ahmadi on cost £3m, was good at first, might come good again, MIGHT bowery at £300k, even if he doesnt make it, we will get our money back vlaar, no need for words Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobler Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Confirmed that Warnock has joined Leeds on permanent deal. Could possibly give us the greenlight to get someone else in. Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarpie Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Palacios? I doubt he'll be much of an improvement but where's much needed centre half? Lambert is a grade a tool if he doesn't get centre half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobler Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 @MatKendrick Some tentative talk of #avfc working on a loan (for a player, not for cash from the bank), but no definite details about it yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Robinson Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Maybe Palacios just didn't suit Pulis' team. Give him a chance. At the very least he might injure Bannan in training. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 All blame aside, we are where we are. having been benched all season the "BIG STARS" are obviously being paid to do not alot on the pitch. have Dunne, Bent, Ireland and Nzogbia all been injured this year, yes. have they performed when they've been on the pitch? (with the exception of Nzogbia trying a bit harder but still being a bit greedy on the ball) HELL NO. In fairness to Bent on tuesday he tried a bit and had a few lay offs that sped our play up a bit, unfortunately I dont remember any of them going to a villa player and the moves broke down on the rare occasion he was fed a pass. Benteke's first touch was heavy (and thats being kind) and also lost possession. hence the ONLY chance we created was Nzogbia getting it keeping it and hitting a shot that was unlucky not to go in. I'm not a coach or a manger or any of that but I was watching and I've been watching most of the season. theres a reason Benteke, Gabby and Weimann are getting a game ahead of Bent. It doesnt really matter how we got here with these individuals now. What matters is are they going to give 100% effort if they get on the pitch. If the answer is no with any of them then it doesnt matter how good their feet are if their hearts and minds arent in it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 I'd definitely take Palacios on loan, even if Sylla turns out to be our defensive midfield saviour it would be prudent to have another one at the club as our midfield is so dire.

Jimzk5 Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 People have short memories with palacios just cus he hasnt had an impact at stoke. At wigan/spurs he was really good. No better than what we have? Behave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattyp_avfc Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Palacios would be a good CM signing..... something like this would work ----------------Vlaar---NEW CB Lowton---------------------------Bennett --------------------Sylla -----Palacios------------Westwood ---Weimann----------Gabby ---------------Tekkers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Palacios westwood sylla midfield looks a lot better! Christ yes. Palacios WAS a very, very good player. Perhaps this is a chance for him to regain some fitness and form. If he's chomping at the bit we've nothing to lose. We're going down with a wimper. Lets at least try to go down fighting.
