Im hearing cuellars situation at villa may be reconsidered. Possible he may be staying.

I don't see why he wouldn't come back. I thought Solskjaer would recall him, and so would Martinez given their style of play. He's our only back that looks to keep the ball on the floor. Not to mention he actually gives a shit.

I think it would be a great move, I believe some centre half's genuinely become the real deal late in their careers. And yes he come across as a player that cares about the fans.

I can't see it somehow. He must have had something lined up for him to leave.

I can see Carlos ending up at Sunderland.

There is a mackem behind the bar at my local, I asked him today what he thought about signing Carlos and he said he wasn't impressed and thought Bramble and even Ben Turner where better defenders. It does annoy when fans of Sunderland and Newcastle are talk up as being some of the best in the land when really most of them are fecking clueless.

Wouldn't surprise me if O'pube signed Carlos, Reo-Coker and Heskey all on free transfers, I think I’m right in saying that he spent the best parts of £20m of for them when he was at us.

Eh? He's the worst passer at the club surely?

I'd welcome Carlos back in a heartbeat. Then I'd build a new, younger defence around him. 2-3 signings and then ship out Collins, Warnock, Hutton and possibly Dunne, though Dunney under Lambert I feel could raise his game again, so I'd be willing to give him another shot.

Carlos's contract wasn't renewed because the club wanted his MON-set wages off the payroll.  The club would only consider re-signing him if he took a massive wage cut.  I doubt he'd be up for that at his age.

I seem to recall Cuellar as a extremely average right back and a backup centre half under five managers at Villa Park. Despite many opportunities he never nailed down a regular centre half berth in his time at the club. Increasingly injury prone towards the end of his stint, I really can't see any reason why bringing him back would be a good idea.

Villanic: I'd be very surprised if O'Neill signed NRC, given their 'bust-up'.

He was on high wages - and as much as I loved him - he isn't good enough to re-sign. We need younger and better players than Cuellar to move forward.

Won't happen and shouldn't happen. Not considered good enough by all Villa's managers over the past 4 years. Why has he suddenly become someone you can build your defence around? He"s not good enough with or without the ball. He may be a nice bloke but any money saved would be better spent elsewhere.
