The Milner Novela... Final episode page 296

[alan_clarke]

maybe Milner is worth £27.5m with the rules changing regarding how many English players you need in your squad.

Seems like the bookies think we'll be getting Ireland, Keane and poss Bellamy in.

[richard moore]

We need to get rid of the twat pronto now. I hope I never set eyes on him again. Fingers crossed both he and the other mercenaries have a season from hell...

[villa `cross the mersey]

Not seen any direct quotes from Milner, so I see no evidence of him disrespecting the club etc, however I am disappointed to see him go after his performances last season. To be frank if I was offered possibly 3 times my salary elsewhere I would be off pronto.

Don't be so ruddy reasonable about it Clive!

I failed to mention that any type of salary would be appreciated right now.

[regular_john]

Am I the only one underwhelmed by Stephen Ireland? He's talented but he's also clearly a prick, do we really want him in the dressing room?

[Phil from the upper holte]

With Milner it Just seems a bit like yeah I loved Villa and wanted to join ages ago, I feel undervalued and Newcastle....2 years later, Oooh more money? Yeah I wanna go to city!!

Money grabbing wanker, I just want a deal that suits the Villa and please Martin get Ireland don't try and source someone yourself

Yes, I was thinking you were probably thinking that mate

Is it really that, or is it because we kidded ourselves he was different to the rest? He's been offered a better job, more money. I can't hate him for that.

[avfc_1874]

£27.5 million is good business. Echo most comments that have been posted on the last couple of pages. You could easily replace Milner for £10-12 million.

He won't be as effective for Citeh as he has been for us, they'll more than likely play him right midfield too.

Maybe it is that Dave, Maybe we didn't think he was like that, It'd just be nice to keep some of the better players sometimes and hopefully get one or two more in and build on it.

Man City are gonna be the next Chelsea, Buy someone so as no-one else can get them. I actually think he would have done better here than he would there, I reckon he'll end up on the wing again or warming the bench

[phantom limb]

Is it a better job though? Surely a footballer would want to play as much as possible. He'll be competing with the myriad of midfielders that City already have, and probably being shunted back out to the right wing when he does get to play. There's no way that they'll be able to keep all of those players happy.

He will be earning much more money than he ever would with us though, which makes it difficult to imagine that the money isn't a big factor in him wanting to leave.

Most players at the top end seem to handle being rested, and who says he'll not be a regular?
