JohnJohn2 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Benteke, 21, has made up his mind that he wants to join Villa and is understood to be exploring a legal loophole in his contract to try to make the move happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaGoMarching Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I've seen Kendrick and Nursey reporting that Genk want between 10 and 15 million. That is far too much to pay for him. We should walk away at anymore than £8m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiggyrichard Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I have a feeling we're in for Dempsey. Prepared to pay £8m for Benteke, Genk want £10m...£8m for Dempsey, job done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCforever1991 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I have a feeling we're in for Dempsey. Prepared to pay £8m for Benteke, Genk want £10m...£8m for Dempsey, job done! Your nearly as bad as CI, with N'Zonzi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve-67 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Dempsey, young and hungry? Nope. He's not coming here. Would be a nice addition though. Agree with others over Benteke. 15mill would buy us two others of significant quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanO Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I don't know why but this player doesn't excite me is the slightest, I honestly hope we move to whoever plan B is. I just hope there is a plan B!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderball Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Even £8m sounds too much on a young undeveloped Belgian, Villa's offer sounds spot on to me but no doubt Faulkener will get stick if it passes us by. We just don't have that sort of money to speculate, teams like Chelsea and City can afford to have these purchases around the club to see if they blossom, but our striker needs to work straight away. Would rather see Owen on a PAYP, or £8m on Dempsey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted August 31, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted August 31, 2012 if thats true Richard then an absolute joke we are. Yep, really wouldn't be happy with that. Would take Bowery as a backup striker for the future, but we need someone who can come in and do a job now. Shit, I'd even take Doyle right now... Desperate times.

moose Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 My money's on Genk caving in at some point today, but us already having filled out the paperwork for plan B in case it needs faxing off at 10.59pm ps do they REALLY use faxes still in football transfers? Don't they have email at the FA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarpie Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Isn't Bowery completely separate signing from Benteke, and that Villa have third striker as Plan B if Benteke transfer doesn't go through? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
