themanupstairs Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Villa linked with £15m Joe Cole (again) and £4m Alan Smith. Laughable and terrifying. In that order I think it's laughable and terrifying that those two played in the same side Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Villa pay over the top for Cueller... Anton Ferdinand - 10m Younes Kaboul - 6m Carlos Cuellar - 7.8m Those were two others we were linked with this summer. I know which one looks the best. that's right. Cuellar pisses all over the other 2 from a great height Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuellar pisses all over the other 2 from a great height Does he? We know Kaboul hasn't done too well, and we know Ferdinand is an average prem defender, but i cannot remember the last time Cuellar played in the Premiership. He's played in a weak league all season looking great, and in the UEFA playing in the most boring mind numbing defensive team on planet, although he looked good, its hard to tell from that alone. A decent defender is going to shine in an ultra defensive formation no doubt about it. Its a big fee, a big gamble, he could easily be another Boumsong, or an Amoruso, or a Barry Ferguson. I don't think he will be, but i don't reckon he'll piss all over Ferdinand or be as fantastic as everyone reckons. Still would have liked him here, but would say personally, £5m is a gamble.

S.S.R. Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Cuellar is a below average player really, 1 lucky season in scotland and hes now amazing mackems.gif He was also the major reason why they reached the UEFA Cup final. Far from being "below average" IMO. I'm not knocking Cuellar, but it's easy for a defender to look good when your team are playing negative football. What is he going to look like in a side pressing forward, and the opposition counter-attack has better players than St Mirren's? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Boro have made a confirmed bid for Hoyte according to SSN... Terrible player. Allows attackers to run at him as he backs off all the way into his 6yd box, before even thinking about entertaining the idea of putting in a challenge. Clueless defender. Southgate will be the toast of the town for Arsenal fans tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many people just don't even mention the fact he is a proven La Liga defender. Or are you saying the Premiership is that far ahead of La Liga? No more of a gamble than Coloccini or Vidic for that matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How you work out that comparison with Ferdinand I don't know. He was linked with the top clubs in Spain and also premiership teams before his move to Rangers and I had certainly noticed him in that Osasuna side that were doing really well.
