Quote from: BedsVillain on April 10, 2011, 11:19:21 PMHulk from Porto would be great if have the cash to splash.Can the hulk bring his manager with him too? Andre Villas Boas looks like being the next Special One. He's only 34 or something crazy but has been coaching since he was 17 after impressing Bobby Robson when they were neighbours. Half English too. Not sure whether he'd want to join Villa though.

Did you see his goal from the edge of the box yesterday? Nothing about pace in that. Just pure quality.
Isnt Sturridge a Villa fan? I would say a Zola-esque type player is what Villa need, the runs Bent makes around the box he makes are unnoticed by our players. Luc Nillis before his accident would of been fab, so would of Benito Carbone, but nowadays there just doesnt seem to be those little magicians anywhere unless you have £50 million burning a whole.
What we need is to find a cross between Peter Beardsley and Alan Shearer.

Sturridge had a chance to come here before and opted for Chelsea.Can't blame the lad, but it does seem to indicate that this notion that he'll automatically opt for us or would be happy to take a pay cut to have the honour of playing for his boyhood side (as was mentioned on another thread) might be just a touch fanciful.
We don't.Play an attacking midfielder behind him who can link up play. Gary Gardner or Barry Bannan can play the role if they answer their significant potential.

I agree. Not sure about this boyhood club thing either, didn't his dad play for the Dark Side?
