El-Reacho Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I was pleased with what Neville said about us the other night - the negative stuff he was saying I took as him pointing out the difference between the current regime and previous regimes when he would have played here.

Raver50032 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Yeah I heard him say how Villa have always had players in their late 20's early 30's who were very "comfortable"... and he's definitely right about that. He also said Villa as a club bore him to death, but they've bored me to death a lot over the past few years! So yeah I didn't really find what he said as being disrespectful, just quite honest. I thought he may have said something else other than that. Yes, sorry, I didn't think it was very respectful for a 'professional' pundit to comment by saying that the club bored him to death. I'm all for freedom of speech - but pundits are supposed to be 'goody-goody.' That is quite a damaging thing to say about our club. But I guess winning everything so regularly kind of does that to you - I should imagine that any club is seen as boring by him, if they don't win trophies as often as United have done.

Morpheus Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 So the part where you said that you hoped the new players wouldn't turn out like KEA or Bennett was a typo? No, no typing mistake. Just based on current form but that may change similar to Benteke. Out of interest, do you have a wee punt on the opposition to win in villa games Morph? . . Up until recently if I did place a bet on the opposition I would have done ok but I don't generally bet on anything preferring to spend my money on my own little pleasures.

lexicon Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 No, no typing mistake. Just based on current form but that may change similar to Benteke.. This 'current form' angle is hilarious - will your ego not allow you to just be wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mantis Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Alright alright let's clear this up then. Benteke was indeed another Balaban and a complete waste of money on that particular form at the time Morpheus posted the comment. However, Benteke is now the greatest buy in the history of AVFC and easily the next Drogba, going by his current form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Surely 1 match doesn't equate to form? Whether judging in a positive or negative light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morpheus Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I don't have an ego and I have admitted many times that I have been wrong about him. You will note the moderator has asked for this debate to end and I am trying to abide by that concerning your other point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No what I'm saying is that as you were judging Benteke's form then you must now surely admit that he is one of the greatest buys in the history of AVFC and easily the next Drogba, based on current form?
