Harry wants Lescott, said it in his post match interview.

Why on earth they need him now they have Ben Haim

He must have the TSM's agent.

It would be particularly galling if we allow him to end up at QPR when our defence is desperate for an experienced centreback. If Lescott leaves Man City we have to make sure he comes to us and not a relegation rival.

Pretty emphatic statement, can't see Lescott moving until the summer.

It's not Lescott's fault that his employers agreed to such generous terms of employment. if they now want rid, he's within his rights to be a bit arsey.


Maybe so, but i'd prefer to sign players who want to play for us, not someone who view us as a move only to be made once he's wrenched every last penny from his old club. We had enough of them under MON.

Anything else you'd like, Greg? Moon on a stick?

Lambert's filled the squad with hungry young triers who were glad to come to Villa. But they're not good enough for you.

Google say Inter Milan :) go on Sneijder and Coutinho  for double transfer please and Alan Hutton and Stephen Ireland can go other way :)

I am ok with that however I would want a few million euros as well. After all both Ireland and Hutton are rightly known as northern Pirlo and Alves!

Did we ever get all the cash from the Milner/Ireland deal in a similar vein to the Downing deal?  They might 'owe us one', so to speak.

I also think Dorrans could be worth a punt.

Just call me Mystic Pablo.

You don't have to be young to want to play for Aston Villa, or need a massive cash bribe from your last club. Anyway I don't think Citeh want to sell him, so its all irrelevant for now.

Don't kid yourself. All players are like that.

Well as much as i'm a cynical person, I don't believe that. Some would rather play than sit on their arses in the reserves. They're just the minority.

4 million for Dorrans is taking the piss big time. Would not touch him for anymore than a million considering how little game time he gets.

As usual, mouthy Harry is a after every player, none of whom will go to QPR.
