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

[IRISHPHIL]

think the board are correct, they have been able to get extra for downing so why should they let that hard work go to waste on wigan

[Mazrim]

Highly unlikely anybody else is involved. Sky and Co like most transfers to play out like a shit Hollywood movie. Keep you watching right up until the last minute with fabricated plot twists.

He'll be a Villa player.

[cdbearsfan]

I hope you're right. Surprised moneybags Paris St Germain haven't been linked.

[mozza]

Have Everton matched our offer ?

[Mazrim]

I dont think they've bid or will bid.

with what? Milk bottle tops don't count.

Everton I would be a wee bit concerned about - if their interest in genuine.

They've generally built their side piecemeal, and have in the past stretched to one big deal per summer. They don't pay huge money across the board, but Arteta, Fellatio and Cahill are meant to be on a fair whack

PSG as well -with their new resources behind them, I'd have thought they'd be tempted to bring a young French international back to France.

But I still think we'll get him.

[Eigentor]

I suspect the club is working hard to make this happen. They're not as clueless as their worst detractors claim, so I'm fairly optimistic, though not completely confident.

[The Situation]

I hate when things drag on in transfer window, especially when going after a player we desperately need.

We've just got nearly £40 million from two players sold in the last 2 weeks, just pay £12 million and I'm sure Whelan will accept it making his profits double.

Just please get the buisness done and bring Charles in... we need him, it'd also be good for him to go to Hong Kong joining the team for the pre-season. Just get it done!

Slowly, slowly is the name of the game when Villa are signing players. I'm starting to wonder if our decisiveness in the January window was down to Houllier?

[themossman]

Maybe so, aided by the fact that his targets were a bit less obvious, for differerent reasons. So we weren't in the usual staring match with some bellend club owner.

This one shows signs of going tits up. I think we've only started the bidding.

why? Don't panic. Hitting refresh on this bloody thing and expecting the deal to be confirmed only makes things worse. We've made an official bid. Wigan are within their rights to be considering it. We've got every chance of outbidding the other possible contenders, and much of the other links are rumours more than anything concrete. Our interest as it is with Parker and Given are more solid. Stay calm brother Clark.

Given looks like a goer admittedly, Parker not sure, what have you heard?

N'Zogbia concerns me because there doesn't look like many similar alternatives, which means plenty of interest and if we miss out where do we turn?
Losing 2 wingers means we are in real need.
Shame we didn't get him in between Young and Downing.

[pauliewalnuts]

It isn't the law to play with two wingers, you know.

Not having a go at you hut have seen a few posts on here recently that seem to suggest it is
