Another Popeye Doyle: Robert Pires in "Come and get me plea" to Villa.

Okay, so he doesnt use those exact words but it's close enough.

Could he turn out to be as good as Hou's inspired Gary McAllister type signing when he was Liverpool boss...

Age thing aside, he's an attacking midfielder/winger, which is a position we're pretty well off in right now.

So no.

Cannot see what we get out of this - surely would not get near playing and does not look the sort of player you would bring in to teach the younger players ??

He has no sustainable business plan, and is hardly a long term proposition.  I'm out.

Might be a decent player to have as cover, but I doubt he'd be willing to agree to that, and would probably demand a squillion pounds a week. Would give him a chance if he signed but suspect he could end up as Ginola Mk II.
