Ron Vlaar Aston Villa have offered a new contract , but the Dutch defender doubts violent if he put his signature there .
The current commitment of Vlaar (30) in Birmingham is almost finished , leaving him free this summer could walk out the door . To prevent the club has decided to Ron concrete to offer a new contract. "I have in consideration , I think about it ," Vlaar so let us know on FOX Sports.

But whether he will actually be put doodle is still very doubtful . "I want to maximize my career and think I can go a step higher. I will look at it a go quietly 'said Vlaar, who is preparing with the Dutch team in the crucial European Championship qualifier against Latvia on Friday.

Like Cleverley, Im nonplussed if he puts doodle or not, there is a strong argument to sweep away nearly all of the guff and start afresh.

TBH from his side of things he should of gone after the world cup.Now he has had a season where he again been injured ( he is on restricted training to protect him) and been responsible for some right clangers ..

Stoke pen
Everton Pen
Southampton back pass

Just to name 3 obvious one's so good luck with that step up.

I reckon he will end up at Southampton with Koeman.

Wouldn't bother me if he goes. Would like him to stay and see if Sherwood can coach a playing style and a few tactics into this crowd of players. A factor sadly lacking at the club since Vlaar came here. We might see a different player then. And I will concede that what has been front of him protecting the defense over the last few seasons has not been great, but, the amount of goals we have conceded with him here has been huge.
He is a solid enough centre back but that's it.

please add QPR away - an astoundingly inept performance from our totally inept "leader".

I rarely criticise individual players but he was utter shite that night!
And not for the only time.
Some players - Laursen, McGrath, Barry, Cowans - you come to rely on in challenging times. I've done that with Ron, and he's usually been a bit shit.

And add the Guzan error, Vlaar was in acres of space, but bottled it and passed back instead of clearing. Then Guzan totally messed up.

Not fussed about him at all. Hardly in the same league as a Teale, Ehiogu or Laursen

I don't even think he's as good as Clark at the moment, and getting Clark to be put doodle a new contract should be a higher priority.

Fine.  You know where the door is.  Go and be injured somewhere else.

Vlaar is international pedigree. He's better than alot of central defenders in each prem team put together would make them top 4.. bar the top 4 and arguably on par on his day.
But sakho, fazzio, Alcatraz, colichino and Williamson, lovern, yosihda, Tomkins and collins mangala, vlaar is class act in a solid pairing or 3 would look good
