Aston Villa sign Charles N'Zogbia (Reply#1151)

[Toronto Villa]

Everyman in the world knows we have just pocketed the best part of £40m from the sale of two players so why on earth are we haggling over a £10m fee.  We are worse than Del Boy at times.

Maybe to get the best deal for the club? Just a thought.

Wasn't it yesterday Whelan was quoting £20m? We have him my the short and curlies and after he did us over with Martinez, somebody should tell him, payback's a bitch.

what he said on Talk Shit was that given the price of some of the players that had been signed (I can't recall if said Henderson by name but he certainly hinted at it) that N'Zogbia was worth that based on his record. However, he went on to say that the player was in the last year of his deal and as much as they want to keep him they'd likely have to sell. They know as well as everyone that N'Zogbia would be worth a lot more if it wasn't for his contract. I think 10 mil will be the right price in the end.

Wigan know our cards and how much we have to play with.

We'll have to part with at least £14m to get him I reckon.

SSN have just said that Everton have joined in the race for him too.

It will be about £11million IMO.

Has eastie stolen your log-in details?

[Irish villain]

We need to be as ruthless here as other clubs have been about getting our best players.

From today:

Yeah I noticed that, so I'm skeptical. But still come on Villa get the deal done.

What next? Villadawg telling people to ignore the numbers and go with their hearts? GJH telling people to cheer up?

If those morons on the board miss out on him because they're dicking around over a million or so there will be hell to pay.....

Unfortunately it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.
