No problem its her birthday on sunday i wont be going over. When the tumble weed blows slowly down the main street she may realise.
Mike, we don't need to sell anyone now. Only reason we'll sell is if the player concerned digs his heels in, or if we get a really, really silly bid in. Roofe is definitely going nowhere. Who is going to pay money for someone who's out injured for a couple of months? (Apart from us, that is? ). And as for the bid talk, not one word has come from the club, so you can take it with a pinch of salt. The club don't need to sell papers - the press do, hence it's 95% football fantasy at this time of year.
Looks like Tom Pearce is being SOLD to Barnsley to link up with the rest of our U23s so looks like we will have more cash coming in but dont expect much. He has a 4 year contract with 3 still remaining so I reckon as they were thinking to loan him out a small fee gets him off the books. England U20 International with a reputation for scoring from left back? I will update the tranny sticky once confirmed
You think? Which of this years' player sales do you object to? Or would you have preferred to keep them all & sign another load?
Neil we have heard this all before but reading between the lines Phillips wants to go and when that happens as in Woods case we waited until it was too late to get a replacement
So you know for a fact that White is not better than Jansson? And the U23's were worth keeping and not surplus to requirements?
Well first of all we're talking about this summer and secondly they have all been replaced. One of them (Clarke) is actually still with us, although a bit of a luxury player imo
Aye, but we don't have the money to do common sense. Like most Championship clubs, we're a selling club. You still didn't answer the question, btw. Would you rather we hadn't sold anyone this season?
Reading between what lines, though, Mike? The clickbait Newsnow sites? Basically someone makes something up on Twitter & they copy it & turn it into a big story that they copy off each other. There is absolutely nothing in it. Villa don't need him & can't afford him. End of. Latest stories claim they've offered him 6x his current wages. They simply aren't allowed to speak to him - it's against the rules. So it's a load of tosh. Also remember that he's unproven in the PL. A first year signing. £60k a week? Really? Look at our other recent PL additions like Sam Byram. Did they get £60k? Nope. £20k by all accounts. It's all sensationalist nonsense you're reading. KP is a Leeds lad & has even stated publicly that he's like to stay here another year & hopefully play in the PL with Leeds next year. What else will it take to convince you that this is all a bunch of clickbait tosh with no substance whatsoever. If a football club or agent is involved, it'll be Villa trying to unsettle a player to get him on the cheap. Don't think it's going to happen with this guy.
I think you'll find that El Sofa is a better judge of player than that crappy journeyman Bielsa. It's also customary to move out u23 players to allow the improving u18 players to step up & develop. Happens at EVERY club. If they have an academy, of course. Bielsa would rightly be criticised if he didn't weed them out!
No idea no more than anyone else. Just voicing an opinion which will hopefully be wrong. Only time will tell. At least we’ll shortly have meaningful footie to discuss instead of the close season speculation
Let's just leave it till Monday, when we can all say we knew Bielsa knew best, or have a mass wrist slash. non of this in between crap, heaven or suicide
