Mascherano and Song aren't hatchet men but they're the sort of destructive central midfielders who foul every 5 seconds and break up attacks without getting a yellow unitl the 85th minute that Wenger was whinging about ironically enough.

Totally agree.

If Song played against Arsenal, Wenger would moan his ugly face off.

So, if we're beleiving the press it's a £25m 'take it or leave it' offer from Man City.

Simple question - yes or no?

If it's Steven Ireland delivering the cheque and he's stopping around then yes.

If not, then no.

No. Not unless it also involves two players. And one of those players isn't Santa Cruz.

Exactly.  Not so much leave it as fuck off.  We've got plenty of time to see if any other teams come in with an offer.  And if they don't he stays at Villa.  We can't lose.

I think we'd seriously consider and possibly accept 30m which Man. City could well up to in August.

Or Ireland and 20m.

Dear Man City.

Regarding your 'take it or leave it offer'

We do not want to sell James Milner and certainly not for the piss poor offer you have made. We hold the ace card here, if you want it, we want Richards, Ireland, Santa Cruz, De Jong AND £20m. Take it or leave it.

Love
Aston Villa

I don't think we should sell Milner under any circumstances. I think some people are underestimating just how good this player is, he is by far the best player in our squad and by far the best player we have had for years, probably since Yorke. Keep in mind that Milner has played CM for less than one season, yet has scored 12 goals from that position, as well as winning man of the match more times than I care to count. In the next season or two, I believe Milner will really make this position his own, I don't think I'm exaggerating to say that he could very well be the next Steven Gerrard.
