If West Ham get promoted, he'll go back there before leaving London.

As above , no way would he move out of London to play for a very average club .

He'll either move to LA or go into Coaching I reckon , and I think he's make a damn good Coach.

He's not the way forward for Villa that's for sure .

DMF, We didn't offer 15million for Lampard. We offered 15 million for Lampard and Kanoute. It's in the very quotation that you use as proof!!!
Kanoute went to Spurs for £3.5m so was very much a make weight.

I think that for that money we should be looking for players who are a few years younger.

And anyway, he's fat.
That hasn't stopped us signing players in the past

He was brilliant in the World Cup in 2006, he said so himself in his book. I think he's great. Let's get him.

Quite right. We should focus on younger players like Fabian Delph.

Given his age and wage demands, this simply won't happen.

You old cynics.

He's moving up here to be closer to his best mate Lee Hendrie.   It's obvious.

If he were a good coach in the making, maybe it would be a good move. We'd get a couple of good seasons out of him whilst he worked his ticket as a coach.

I dunno what I am talking about, really. I'd be real pissed of we signed the twat.

i actually met him not long after he went to chelsea, and as an inquisitive villa fan I asked him why he went to chelski ahead of villa (at the time, villa would have been seen as a better move)  and he said he was very close to coming to villa and wanted to play under john gregory, but that hed had two bad injuries in his younger days and both were on Villa Park so thought he may be jinxed.............. total truth

heh. Can't see that. He's even less popular with West Ham fans than Downing is with us. and not just because he left. The amount of times they used to claim he only got picked because he was related to redknapp
