steve-67 Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 There's nothing on the yellow breaking news strap so it's gotta be shit. SSN cream their knickers over deals like this one. I'm completely devoid of any enthusiasm with this deal, don't care if he goes, wouldn't mind if he stays. I trust MON and Randy to do the right thing by the football club. Oh, the Meaning Evil really do need to stop reading VT don't they? Today's headline is a corker. Lazy bastard journalism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewavfc Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Onuha is a part of the deal apparently Where you heard that HV? Onuoha would be a welcome addition to the squad, just hope there's £25m coming with him! Or he brings Ireland, De Jong or Kompany with him!

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I'm looking over that site too. It seems it's either done, or VERY close to being done. Or it could just all be fan forum bollox. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MYSTERYMAN Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Onuha is a part of the deal apparently I was told we don't like players plus cash deals it has to be a straight cash deal . Not surprised us linked with him but think it will be a seperate deal if it's correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fran_villa Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 i'll be pissed of if the cash from transfers doesnt go back into the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve-67 Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I think we can ask for better players from them than Onouha too!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprised us linked with him but think it will be a seperate deal if it's correct. Why would that be? It doesn't make logical sense to me but maybe I'm missing something? It strikes me as a good way of ensuring you actually get players you want rather than possibly missing out on them because a deal gets struck for them with another club. Can you elaborate on the reasons for our reluctance to do that way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you elaborate on the reasons for our reluctance to do that way? I'm sure whilst negotiations are going on about Milner, a set price will be made for any players of theirs we're interested in. We sold Barry and bought Dunne seperately last summer, I expect it will happen again. Maybe it's a finance/accounting/tax thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Villa think the values get clouded and if its 28 mill they don't want City saying here is 18 mill and 10 for Ireland as an example . They will leave the Ireland deal until after the Milner deal is done imo . However I think it could work for us with Davies Young and Keaneplus cash going in different routes again if thats correct .

dappadan Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I am confused as to when Milner became such a world beater? I really don't think he is as good as people think. I think MON will replace him and replace him well, if he wants to go then we will move on as we always have. UTV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
