brummie Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 How many goalkeepers with one year left on their contract go for 8m? I'd be equally happy with Jaaskelainen, tbh, but that'd be at 1-2m. Yes but you're desperate! The only way that Jaaskaleinen is going to sign for a bunch of under-achievers like Villa, is if you offer stupid money for him and judging by the £4M you've spent on Harewooden, Martin O'Neill is obviously not averse to spending stupid money on players! Yes, what could possibly attract Jaaskelainen to a club like Villa ..... the chance to work with one of the best managers in the game, talented footballers alongside him. Perhaps we'll take him to the trophy room and show him the history of the club, where maybe he'll notice the European Cup, seven league titles and seven FA Cups. Alternatively, he might prefer playing in the footballing equivalent of a multiplex cinema, with the cringeing sight of people running up and down with flags and the sound of music when you score, safe in the knowledge that he'll be in the Championship next season. Still, you've always got Jloyd and McCann, muhahahahaaaaaa! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villa have signed some talented footballers?! When did this happen?! I think it is fair to say that Ashley Young, John Carew, Gareth Barry, Gabriel Agbonlahor, Luke Moore, Nigel Reo-Coker, Shaun Maloney, Wilfred Bouma and Stiliyan Petrov are talented footballers. Or wouldn't they get a look in at the Reebok? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GIRUY Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 other than Ferguson,?I reckon they're probably the best three british managers going.Big Sam being the best obviously! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 Aye but one of the best in the game? what exactly has he achieved? a good spell at Leicester, then he went to a shit league to manage the best team in it and won alot of silverware. Then he went to Villa and were did they finish last season? To say he is one of the best in world football is wrong on so many levels. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been silly to think Villa could have achieved anything more than a top half finish, we'll see Villa pushing for europe on a regular basis in years to come imo.

ElDiablo Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 He's still getting his shit together, they did ok last season and I expect the same from us this season basically. He's beginning to get a good squad together, young aswell that could do very well this season imo. Top 20 in the world though? Pushing it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
