Now we're being linked with two more midfielders, and I still couldn't hazard a guess how Bruce would set them up in a balanced midfield. Are we having a 'spell as many names wrong as we possibly can' competition? jon_c .... YOU WIN! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 60K/week for a 36 y/o in the Championship is steep IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know Sky are doing a report in 12 months time on the ridiculous amount we paid him per minute played. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly still has ambition to play competitive football, could easily have gone states or china for far more money. We could be looking back at Steve Bruce's little golfing sesh as a masterstroke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best GIF ever* and just like me in the Steve Bruce thread. *Apart from Mick McCarthy one obviously but that's on a different level altogether. Maybe John Terry can play in the hole? Always seemed to be keen to assist team mates in that regard before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted June 21, 2017 Visiting Supporter Share Posted June 21, 2017 It's not my money and it's up to Xia how he spends it but if reports are true that Terry will get 60k per week plus bonuses then the Villa hierarchy have learnt nothing over the last few years. 60k per week would have gotten a very good DM which Villa are more in need of than a defender and Redknapp gets it in the neck on here for doing the same thing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terrytini Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 If as I suspect strongly he is worth 10 - or even more- points it'll be worth it. Also IMO he DOES strengthen midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoelVilla Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Best player in the squad on a free transfer and 60K/week. Im very happy with that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackbauer24 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I've made my view perfectly clear on John Terry, I don't want him anywhere near my club. Sometimes you have to stick to your morals regardless and he is a vile vile human being. However, if he joins then I'll hope he performs to a good standard and I'd not boo him or anything. But if any fan gets 'Terry', especially before he kicks a ball, on their shirt then I reserve the right to punch them hard in the face... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
