Lampard for Villa?
« on: February 23, 2012, 11:30:27 PM »
Chelsea want rid. They got him for £11m, whereas we had offered £15m.
Here's the proof.
'After the sacking of his father and uncle Harry Redknapp (the assistant manager and manager of West Ham respectively), Lampard left West Ham United for Chelsea for £11 million, the Hammers having previously declined a £15 million joint bid from Aston Villa for Lampard and Frédéric Kanouté.'

I have heard he is a target, despite the wiki lies.

What kind of motivation would he have to do anything for us?

Always rated Lampard but think he's on the wane these days.

I'm not sure we'd be able to afford his wage demands (or that we should pay them) and whether he'd come to us.

He sees it as a chance to resurrect his England career. Apparently his Dad has told him to get out of the limelight for a bit.

DMF, We didn't offer 15million for Lampard. We offered 15 million for Lampard and Kanoute. It's in the very quotation that you use as proof!!!

This. No way on earth he'd ever move to Villa. And anyway, he's fat.
