I'm pretty sure I'm putting 2 and 2 together and getting 5, but reading this line from the article on the OS about Richard Dunne

Quote
Laursen also believes Stan Petrov's brilliance as an anchor man will be key for Villa next season as he allows the likes of Ashley Young, Stewart Downing and Gabby Agbonlahor to attack with abandon.


No mention of Jimmy attacking with abandon there.

and another thing , if i was a man city player i would be rather pi$$ed off if someone who was doing the same job as me was on over 100k mor ethan me a week !!

anyone agree ?


ahh, but said Man citeh players could also take the view that, they are on more money there than if they were somewhere else.
I'm sure Barry will still be happy on his mega money, even if Milner/Torres/Ya Ya came in on mega mega money

That was in the Sunday Mirror (I think?) a week or two ago.  I just can't see it as from a purely egotistical point of view, would they sign an unwanted Man City player?

I think Fergie would love nothing more than taking Ireland, instilling the discipline into his game he needs and turning him into one of the most prolific goal scoring midfielders in the league.

I think Milner might end up at Liverpool. Any or all of Mascherano, Gerrard and Torres would provide the cash. Plus he'd be guaranteed a shirt almost. I think at Man City he could just disappear and Milner must have that at the back of his mind.

as i said ages ago and i am still saying now,  james milner isnt going anywhere !!

he is one of them old school players who enjoys his football and enjoys a challenge.  he doesnt seem like the type of player that would go anywhere for stupid money  and finally he is a clever lad and he as well as everyone else can see man city are just throwning money about left right and centre (TWO HUNDERED THOUSAND POUNDS A WEEK on tore, LOL)


Where's his "I'm happy at Villa" statement then?  We haven't heard a peep from him since he started getting linked with all and sundry.

I'm sick to death of this now.  He's obviously had his head turned by Barry and all the other tossers in the England camp, the sooner we get a good deal for him the better.

The difference there is I doubt either of those players will be remaining with their present clubs into the new season.

Torres will be there then ?

then have a bond of worth I think £80m up soon so exactly where will £30m come from

Liverpool basically have one quality forward and thats it

I would just like to confirm that I am happy at Aston Villa and have renewed my "contract" for seat 13 in T1 despite what you may have read in the Press!!

I'd just like it sorted, it's getting boring now.
