Guest Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 John is 27! So just about to reach his prime hopefully! It'll be interesting to see if he takes the number 10 shirt which is obviously vacant after Baros' departure. If young signs tomorrow aswell. We'll have made 3 positive signings! Tore Andre Flo is that the lanky plank playing for Leeds United! I think Carew's a gamble - could come off - stranger things have happened Young on the other hand - if you pay £10million for him - then you're bonkers (or, at least, O'Neill is - not you personally!!) £10million a young unproven defender - the world has gone mad... pains me to say it - but I do respect "Ooops, word censored!"nal for not going for the big-money signings.... it's not the mark of a good manager to think he can simply buy his way out of trouble.. remember... Keegan, Sourness, Leeds!!, West Ham (just now!), and it seems Villa want to join in... Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin B Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Phil we're not buying our way out of trouble, we're strenthening the squad. O'Neill has money available for the first time in his managerial career. He's made little players big especially at Celtic. I'm sure he'll bring in another player aswell and we'll qualif for europe... just! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Phil, young is a midfielder/striker! it's my age Martin - you have to make allowances!! - I have defenders on the brain because we are linked with about 8 defenders around the world I have never heard of!! it's still a lot of money to spend on one so unproven (in much the same way that Carrick is not worth £18million and Hargreaves is not worth £20million...) the world's gone mad!!

Guest Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 You're jealous because you're stuck with Idan Tal and Jared Borgetti! Villa invest in the future, because they are the future! we sold Jared Borgetti at the end of last season.. He was a touch of class - but Sam never played him - a real goalscorer - scored a couple of crackers in the UEFA for us... Idan Tal is a bit lightweight - too easily pushed off the ball - but he has flashes of brilliance.. we need two more defenders (we have no cover) and we need a creative midfielder (preferably with pace!) we have to have the slowest midfield in living memory.. Campo.. Nolan.. Speed.. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
