Stephen Warnock

[Rudy Can't Fail]

If we can get him back to the kind of form when he joined us from Blackburn, I'll be more than happy. I thought he was one of MON's better signings, a proper footballer.

For me, Mcleish's comments in todays paper said nothing more than "I don't have the money to buy a left back, so we'll have to make do"

Would you have preferred him to have said "fuck me, that warnock's a piece of shit with a terrible attitude, please can't someone take him off my hands"?

McLeish said: "Stephen's attitude has been phenomenal and that's what I expect of top pros playing at a top level.

"He's trained really well. He played for England not so long ago and I think he's a terrific player.
I need to see if he can be part of the future here.
He has come back in and for me has staked his claim with his attitude alone."

Nath, I can put you in contact with my sister, she's a specialist in helping people with reading difficulties. I'm assuming you can read this post.

Wonder what he had against Cuellar then if he is giving everybody else a chance? Did AM manage him at Rangers?

Maybe Cuellar has indicated a desire to go back. It's possible. It's also possible that the new money will allow us to look at targets like Dann aho hasn't moved yet. Hard to say. I think McLeish values Cuellar, but the player may just want to go back to a club that he had a lot of success at.

You're battling the "glass half full" crowd Mark. It will take more than your sister and her reading help skills. A team of therapists is required.

Probably nothing as this story was doing the rounds prior to Mcleish arriving as I recall.

It's an odd one with Cuellar: he's widely popular, yet three managers failed to consistently pick him at CB. We're in the position now of having to make squad sacrifices to move forward and perhaps his sale would enable us to sign an outstanding, 'first name on the team sheet' central defender, rather than keeping someone who has been traditionally third or fourth choice for a place in the defence.

As for Warnock, more than happy if he's back on form and in the side. Saves us trying to find another new full-back for the umpteenth season running.

Funny thing is, even if he was thinking that, he's said the right thing if only to not put off somebody who might 'take him off our hands'.

It's called 'having a clue' Gerrard.

Which was kind of what I was trying to get at. I'm a fan of Houllier's, and am disappointed he couldn't stay on, but he did go in too heavy handed at times with his dealings with some players (Carew though, deserved every bit of it).

Whichever way you look at it, Warnock's going to have to play like Paolo Maldini for the rest of his contract to justify the money we have spent on him.

For me your post says nothing more than "I am yet another poster who refuses to see the positive side to anything Villa have done since appointing McLeish, and I am going to whine about it on every fucking opportunity."

rubs chin, sips brandy, nods head in agreement. Puffs on pipe.
