The Milner Novela... Final episode page 296

[curiousorange]

Just to add something re: City's midfield. Hasn't Vieira signed on for another year?

Someone very close to the player ..

Thats all I know..


I just asked for an update..

I really hope it is true and MON gives our midfield a complete overhaul......

I can't see how anybody could hope its true. Why would you want us to lose our best player ?

Surely you'd prefer us to add to him to make us better ?

It's for the greater good. The money will benefit us more than just Milner on his own I feel.

[boboonthecorner]

Bollocks to Milner and bollocks to the England team - I hereby resign as an England fan.

Exactly my feelings. Sick of watching dull football from overrated English players. Lampard,Cole,etc are only any good because of the players around them. Gerrard hasn't looked half the player since Alonso left, and Rooney......I can't explain that one because he is probably one of our only truly world class players.

[The Man With A Stick]

I really can't see Milner being a Villa player by the time the season kicks off.

At the rate they're going through midfielders i'd be surprised if he's still a Citeh player.

[Dave]

havent they scrapped the "homegrown rule"?

It's still coming in as far as I know.

Nope, he's right - they've scrapped it.

Can't think why they it didn't get more press coverage when they issued a quiet press release on the opening day of the World Cup.

The Milner situation is an exact enactment of the Barry situation.

A good player playing well for Villa gets picked for England and lo and behold when he gets back to Villa suddenly has greater aspirations!
Obviously nothing to do with associating with the other England pillocks!

Quite honestly I would prefer that NO Villa player ever plays for England again (or such time as all the prima-donnas are no longer in the England team)!

[pauliewalnuts]

^^^ I agree, achilles.

[The Man With A Stick]

Been saying the same thing for years.  It does us no favours whatsoever.

What has struck me in this tournament is that most of the players from other nations genuinely look like they wanted to be there. For most of our lot it seemed a complete chore, and a distraction from lying on the beach, or on the deck of their yachts.[/quote]

     complete agreement,the W.C. appeared to be an intrusion on some of "The Golden Generation",s vacation & play time!!!!!!!!

He has - add him to the ever expanding list.

Ivanhoe plays for England and we can't get rid of him.

Parker 9m,Rodellega 12m,Eduardo 7m for Milners fee of 28m. I'd drive him to Man C tomorrow.

Why not buy him a train ticket and tell him to walk from Piccadilly?

It's not far.

Yes it might be better to have two decent midfielders, as opposed to Milner doing the work of two. We don't want to be too reliant on him. Also, freeing up Ashley Young somehow is essential. Ash needs a bolt of inspiration.




And a natural RB who is good going forward, instead of carlos. This would free up the midfielders who have to back track cover for him.

Besides, Man City will probably send a car and driver.

I'd say it's almost certainly not worth you taking a day off work to do it.
