Yes letting cahill go and spending far more on Curtis davies was a very poor bit of business- I think many of us wanted cahill to stay and although he had asked to go it was only because of a lack of games at 1st team level. He will no doubt go to replace terry in the England team and get a move to a big 4 side for £15m plus - a sad loss to us.

Interesting to see GED telling fans they need to get used to the fact that he will rotate his playing squad and I hope we can benefit from this with a strong finish to the season while other teams run out of steam.

Fucking Hell, why didn't Barry take the penalty?

Shrek, he played very well at Villa Park, got an assist, then had a good game against Chelsea last week

He looked o.k for us when he first played, scored that cracker at Everton but I expect him to return to being shite soon after.

Speaking of Cahill, my seven year old lad was opening a couple of packets of 'Match Attax' cards this morning, calling out the names as he did so. He shouted out, 'Gary Cahill, Bolton' and I burst into tears in the kitchen...

Anyway, Sidwell. Just confirming what I thought - he's a decent player, better suited to a 'smaller' club. He'll do well at Fulham, where the expectation level is a bit lower than at Villa, I think.

Sell on fee?

I think we have a sell on fee but not sure what percentage it is , should be a tidy sum anyway.

Aston Villa are keeping tabs on Barcelona's out-of-favour defender Gabriel Milito and hope to snap him up for free in the summer.

Probably no truth in this as its a highly speculative talkSPORT story. He is a free agent in the summer, and unlikely to remain in Barcelona despite costing them €20M. Seems he has been injured for the best part of two years during his four year contract there.

We have a 20% of any fee for Cahill agreement.

Oooh how do you know that? I didn't think we did sell on clauses.

Mysteryman on VT confirmed this in the January window. He ssmed to get everything else right..

I remember o neill saying we had a sell on fee at the time, are you sure it's 20% of any fee or is it 20% of any profit?
