AntrimBlack Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Or more likely that WH will be the main AM which will allow a young and hungry trier to be developed to take his place. Very much this. We aren't going to hand a 31 year old a 2/3 year contract and then have him as a back up. This is it folks. If it does happen, yes, I am afraid so.

El-Reacho Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Would rather have a experienced head in this position at the club - reckon the likes of grealish, carruthers, and Gardner are more likely to realise their potential when working with senior guys who can take the pressure off them. Clark and baker could've done with this luxury too.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightoffyour Posted January 22, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted January 22, 2014 2 and a half year contract would make sense, then get a younger AM in the summer to challenge and learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunnski Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) Hes been speaking out again today : http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/norwich-city/10590760/Wes-Hoolahan-pleads-with-Norwich-to-go-as-Aston-Villa-hover.html “I haven’t spoken to anybody at Aston Villa, but of course a move to play for Paul Lambert again would appeal to me,” Hoolahan said. “I played some of the best football of my career under him and it was Paul who converted me from a winger to playing in the hole behind the striker.” Asked if he thought Villa’s fall-outs with Norwich were the reason behind his rejected transfer request, Hoolahan said: “I don’t want to comment on that. I don’t want to get into any trouble.” Edited January 22, 2014 by Bunnski 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thetrees Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Where does Gary Gardner play? Isn't it about time he got a crack, rather than signing a Norwich reserve? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Where does Gary Gardner play? Isn't it about time he got a crack, rather than signing a Norwich reserve? I think he just wants to bring in some experience to help the young players out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Hard to get exited about this one. That Hoolahan is the one we are sitting and waiting on as "the" signing this window makes me sad for so many reasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just need to do one fairly sizable adjustment to your - probably long held - ideas of how 'big' we are and it will feel like a pretty good signing !

Mantis Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Yeah, we're too big for Hoolohan, just like we were too big for that nobody from Genk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) He is probably getting his year membership at the Belfy as we speak. There will be a lot of huffing and puffing but I expect him to be a Villa player by the end of the month.
