CrackpotForeigner Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Congratulations on signing Helenius! I really hope that Helenius in time are going to be a success at Villa. Helenius are a very talented striker, but keep in mind that he'll need time to adjust to Premier League. It's very difficult moving directly from the danish Superliga to Premier League. As some of you have mentioned Helenius needs to pull on some more muscles and adapt to the pace of PL. I'm really looking forward following Villa in the coming seasons. Personally I think it's great that Aalborg are able selling a player to Aston Villa. However I'm concerned how AaB will perform without Helenius, as he scored 30% of Aalborgs goals in the last two seasons (MVP of the Superliga last two seasons). If combining goals/assists Helenius were involved in nearly 50% of Aalborgs goals last season. That's why some AaB supporters really fears the coming season as there might not be money let to buy a decent replacement. Well all I can say is thanks for Helenius and here's hoping you replace him okay and your fears for next season come to nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turnbull Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Nicklas Helenius He's come to play for us He's as tall as a bus He'll score goals without a fuss etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 He's very different to what we have already, which is good. It might take him some time to adapt to the physical side of the premiere league but its great that Lambert is making these signings so early in the summer as now they will have a full pre-season training with us. Good luck to the lad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha. I LOL'ed at the thought of this happening with an astonished and muffled-sounding scream, followed by JW landing unharmed at the bottom*. *Although within reason I wouldn't be absolutely insistent on the last part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

becks1876 Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Whats with all these 3 year contracts? 1 year to settle in, 1 good year and suddenly we have no choice but to sell. I understand he could just as easily be crap and thus save us a lot of money on a 5 or 6 year contract, but on what is likely 20k a week if not less we would barely be losing a thing on him. Same goes for Baker and Weimann Three year contract is the Norm these days. He plays well, we give him a better wage and extended contract he wants out we sell. No big deal.
