jellycopter Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 That's not really the point I'm making. I'm just saying that the Spurs collect midfielders like Arsenal used to collect centre backs. Of course he should get his game there, but his agent might just draw his attention to the LONG list of midfielders who have had issues there.

I hope not, because if agents did that we would never sign another striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I find it absolutely unbelievable that people are moaning about signings we haven't even made and complaining about the lack of transfer activity even though THE TRANSFER WINDON HAS NOT OFFICIALLY OPENED!!! there is about 4 clubs that have made signings yet people are already complaining that we haven't made any 'big signings' For christ sake nothing much is gonna happen until July anyway because a lot of clubs need to sort out contracts before they think of selling or buying amongst other reasons that i'm not going into. Honestly...Villa fans.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mansonAVFC Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Like Jez said if Villa and Spurs are in for him then he will go to the club offering more £££££££££ simple as that Oh and i thought he was off to Spain????????????????????????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mansonAVFC Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Then if he does go because of the money then we are better off without him! I want to see more Carews of this world at our club, i dont want us to become Chelsea or West Ham, i want players that actually want to play for Aston Villa Football Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellycopter Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I don't think we'll have to wait until July for signings, but I agree it's stupidly early (even by Villa fan standards) to get upset about a lack of "activity". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKP90 Posted May 23, 2007 VT Supporter Share Posted May 23, 2007 That's a good question, if the transfer market has not yet opened, how come there are deals going through? Is it like a pre-agreement or something, and if so, should a player change his mind, could he legally back out of that agreement after it has been announced?

timharding Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 The point being, Sorensen was in the bottom team at sunderland He spent an awful lot of that season out injured. Many people thought that him being out was the reason that they became so bad. Not injured, dropped. Not dropped, injured. With a variety of knee and elbow injuries. He was dropped in October and recalled in Jan, to many supporters suprise as Macho was playing well. Either way he still played the majority of the season.

I always though a player can be brought any time but can only make the move when the window had opened. He wouldnt be able to change his mind because the deal has been done already. Is this right?

Either way he still played the majority of the season. Well he actually wasn't Sunderland goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen will be out of action until the new year after dislocating his elbow in yesterday's 3-1 defeat at Arsenal. Link He played in 21 league games that season, going off injured in two of them. Those injuries being the ones that kept him out for the other games.

brummybloke Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 just a side issue, but will it make a difference who we sign by the way we deal with the agents? that program by panarama has reminded me how managers like harry redknapp and big sam managed to get loads of players in who were of a decent standard. however, as we are normally 'whiter than white' to quote a corrupt polititian, do people think it will hinder us in out bid to sign some of these top european players? after all, most clubs will now have the money to spend, so there needs to be a 'deal breaker' in most cases to tempt players. i know in a perfect world we would only have players who wanted to bleed claret and blue, however, in the real world a good deal of football players will be in it for themselves and will go to who pays the most and who their agent earns the most from the deal.

Maradona10 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Distan gone to Pompy? If we wanted him, i think we would have got him to be truthful, no disrespect to Portsmouth, O'Neill is astute in the market believe me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa_fan_no1 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Eff of spurs. Whenever a young player that some other team is intrested, good ol SPURS have to crash the party. They've got Bale who was linked with Utd and Arsenal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maradona10 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Have any of you seen Bale play? I watched him and he aint all he's cracked up to be, I remember when we introduced a 17yr old away to Sheff Wed and hes still Quality! Barry was far more gifted at that age, if Bale is worth 10mill then Barry is worth 20mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
