So..... Let me get this straight. You want Aston Villa 's transfer policy to be "**** it. It's cold to train, I'll get on the phone to a few agents and sign someone to shut some Rupert on Villa Talk up?"
Ridiculous.
We're going down.
Deal with it.
Embrace it
Look forward to a positive goal difference and a League Championship chase.
No point getting all daft and weepy about it.
Little tip for you.
Parody articles/gentle trolling is only truly effective when it contains a grain of truth.
Stuff like this makes you like a bit of a spanner or a 14 year old. Or both.
I think most of the issues with Dunne centre around his drinking, his weight and his attitude rather than his ability. Is waiting for an experienced international centre half to return from injury to replace an inexperienced product of the youth academy an indication of "dark days" or "how far we have fallen?"
EDIT
CALLING GARETHRDR.... that statement in begging for a picture of Lambert swinging Tarzan style clutching a piggybank.....
make it so. Pretty PURLEAZE.....
I'm not sure we've got anyway of telling unless we ask what the voices have told them this week.
No more than a manager has ever swooped for a player clutching his war chest........
Whilst I don't really rate him this is a bit harsh and consistantly one of the most pointless comments on Villa Talk.
Dunne will give us that "PL experience and quality" that people bang on about ..... the shouts of "AWAY!" when the ball comes into the box have been conspicuous by thier absence.
KKfootball is full of shit.
The second tweet is contradictory in itself. "Wages are a problem but not if Lambert asks really nicely"
What a load of bollocks.
This is very OT so I will be brief.
Mourinho has always had money and always managed one of the top clubs in the division. Porto, Chelsea, Inter, Real Madrid.
In that time Moyes has consitently over achieved with a club who have hardly got a pot to piss in.
Mourinho would not be able to replicate Moyes achievements with Everton. There are several managers that could do what Jose has done given the money and the position of the club when he took control.
Lambert won't get sacked on the basis of results unless we are looking doomed for League 1. I don't actually blame him that much for our current predicament.
I have far more respect for managers who deliever results on a tiny budget than I do for the Mourinho's/Benitez's of this world who jet about spending a **** ton of cash.
In fact.... Moyes>Mourinho.
I think you're clutching at straws there. Big signings= big wages which isn't goping to happen - and no establish pro who is worth having is going to blight his CV with a relegation at Villa Park only to clear off again in 6 months time.
On Lambert - he is hugely ambitious... and I don't care what any yokel from Norfolk says we are a far far bigger, more prestigious club than Norwich. Thats why Lambert is here to make an impression that will lead to bigger and better things nothing else **. He has consistantly done it throughout his career - taken the bigger job when it was offered. He will not be the manager of Aston Villa in 3 years time.
**Clearly its not exactly going to plan right now but thats the general idea.
