Teams don't often pay 9m for bags of shit. It's ok highlighting that a rubbish player has been bought for a lot of money....... what about all the rubbish players who don't get bought?

I never said he's worth 9m. 4-5m they'll be takers purely for his pedigree before he joined us, played in champions league, Chelsea were interested, full international etc. Fitness an issue though.

Chelsea bough Baba for 20 million, West Brom got Chester for 9, Norwich paid more for Timm Klose and West Ham similar for Ogbonna and Southampton paid even more for Van Dijk. all crap defenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a young defender with potential that's it. If chelsea were interested they would have signed him, not Villa. Since then he has shown that he's 4th choice centre back in one of the worst premier league teams ever. He's also had a serious injury which if well placed rumours are to be believed he'll never fully recover from. The only clubs with enough money to throw £4m or £5m at a player like that are premier league teams and none of them will want him. Also he only has a year left on his contract. If we get £1m for him we'll have done well. Edited April 21, 2016 by villa89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted April 21, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 21, 2016 Yeah £1m is bollocks. Either nobody will want him and he'll stay. Or we'll sell him. If it's the latter then it won't be for £1m. £1m gets you nothing these days. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 If Stones is worth 50 million then Okore is worth at least 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swerbs Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 £3m with a year left on his contract IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he would be excellent cb with clark in championship Definitely this should be our thinking especially if we only get low bids for him. He cost us £4 million and is still 23, but now has premier league experience and has proven that when fit, he is a decent center back. We need to be getting at least £7-10 million for him. If no one wants him for that amount, then we might as well use him next season to help us stay in the championship. Sadly though I can see our owner accepting almost any bid for our players.

I think you're letting a bad game at some point in the past cloud your judgement on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoubtGin Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Aston Villa FC @AVFCOfficial Eric Black says Jores Okore hasn't been involved over the past fortnight after refusing to be on the bench for the Bournemouth game. #AVFC How fitting.

PieFacE Posted April 22, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted April 22, 2016 Refusing to be on the bench? Surely that's a sackable offence. Get these wasters out of this club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 (edited) Okore should be playing every week, too right is he annoyed about not getting a chance when we have the likes of Lescott start week in week out. Eric Black can do one. Edited April 22, 2016 by Farlz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Yeah while I think he's the best of a bad bunch in the CB position, I don't want him at the club if thats his attitude. One of many who can get out. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I really don't understand some of our player's mentality. We are where we are for a reason, because of their unforgivably shite and apathetic performances. Yet some think that they're too good for us and can dictate their position as if they are just going to walk into better teams. Wouldn't really care if he left tbh but he isn't doing himself any favours in attracting teams with such a piss poor attitude. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
