Something else that pisses me off about this clown. He's not said a word, no goodbye, no thanks for physio's, fuck all. Obviously as a back up plan for if he gets no decent offers.

I like him and it's pissed me off.

Same.

I'm just confused about his status - he's out of contract but still a Villa player?
Who is paying him then?
Typically ridiculous Villa situation
Do one Ron, just do one

He's out of contract. Who do you suppose is paying him?

No one. As he's out of contract, he's technically unemployed.
I hope he's gone back to Holland, to claim his dole money. Don't need any more of those benefit tourists😉

How many weeks do the Dutch benefits office let you call in with a sore leg before THEY withhold pay?

Maybe the reason he hasn't said goodbye is because the offer is still on the table and unless he can get a really good move he's expecting to come back.

I read somewhere once that when a player's contract runs down he's entitled to one more month's salary from his former club if he hasn't found employment at a new one.
It's a hard life.

To be fair, as Sir Graham once said, for the majority of players a free transfer is the sack. I'm sure the lads we got rid of last month would be grateful of the extra money.

True, but the thought of Vlaar getting yet another month's salary out of us a bit galling all the same.

Why would he get another months payment from us when he is prostituting himself to people?

That's socialism in action. Each treated equally.

He's hardly prostituting himself to people, he's looking for a club.

Well he still was our best defender over the past 3 seasons. I'd like him to stay fit if he were to re-sign because I think a back 4 of Richards- Vlaar - Clarke/ Okore/Baker - Amavi is a potentially top 6 defence.
