AntrimBlack Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Roughly £10 million? Bit overpriced but still leaves us a decent amount to strengthen further. Possibly including add ons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Last deal we announced on a Sunday? I can't remember of any. Think it will be announced tomorrow. Gil. Ah yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add ons don't usually bother me too much. It generally means the player is doing well if they are met. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchard Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I know nothing about the player, but you can tell from how he's been through this, and from what he's said, that's he's a character, and one of these 'winner' types Sherwood mentioned. Our team has been too boring for too long - similarly with Adebayor - putting aside what you think of the talent - they will give the team a bit of character and arrogance that perhaps has been missing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Glad to see us progressing transfers. Another I've never seen but hopefully will be a good acquisition. Good luck to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 If we can manage 10 goals each from Adebayor, Ayew and Kozak, I'll be satisfied. Hopefully Jack will find his scoring boots and Gil should bang in a few. But we really should go sign Praet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanO Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 ITSABMH before I start to take any real interest in him. Tbh and this nothing to do with his ability if the stories are true about his club increasing the amount and the his agent asking for silly money I would have preferred Villa to have pulled out.

Khizzy Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Good on him. Lots of stories about him being a knob and all that but he's shown a positive attitude in wanting to play for us, so that bodes well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 To be fair, it's very rare to have a player want to sign for us this bad. Benteke of course went on strike, but Ayew has taken it to another level. I admire his desire to wear the claret and blue. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Thomas Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) Without wanting to be cynical he probably sees us a stepping stone to bigger things in the PL which I have no problem with. Play well for us for 3-4 years, bang in goals and help lift us up the table and then move on with our blessing for a tidy profit. After Delphgate I struggle to see it any other way… Edited July 27, 2015 by Gary Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 It's a two way street though. If he doesn't quite hit the heights for us we'd sell him on pretty quick. Not too many play for one club for more than 3-4 years these days it seems. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why ? I know that it's only rumours but if they are true then it's taking us for mugs. Maybe the club didn't allow anyone to change the agreement but if we did then everyone will try it on in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
