Birmingham Mail and Villa coverage

[paul_e]

Surely the analogy is with a senior employee at one of the top 20 restaurants in the country who is then offered a part time job at one of the most expensive 4 restaurants in the country and takes that job after twice loudly and publicly proclaiming he is not leaving.

and having had a friend send linkedin messages to the owners of the 4 most expensive ones telling them that he was open to moving elsewhere.

I won't even go on their website any more, they just seem to revel in negativity.

I'm sure they would come out with a similar article if Berahino was to leave Albion in that way!  Didn't the same guy write an article saying that we should understand Benteke wanting to leave as well? 

It's a rubbish article anyway, as it makes no reference to Delph being injured for a lot of the time he was at the club and the McDonalds analogy makes no sense either.

After reading that garbage you really do have to wonder How on earth they get these jobs? 

You'd have better written more informative and accurate opinion from about 20 posters on this site alone.

Here are two tweets from Gregg Evans.

Sherwood wants Adebayor. If he can't get him, he will try for someone with PL experience

avfc also keen to explore loan market. Wilson of Man Utd and Chelsea's Bamford are options to replace Benteke

So in one tweet he says Sherwood want's experience but in another says he's looking at two unknown's to replace Benteke. Hmm.

Bamford would be a good signing in my opinion.

Bamford would be a good signing in my opinion.

I agree on both counts......a good signing for us & an even better signing for the "Mail"!!!

One proven and one up and coming. It's what most people are advocating and it makes a lot of sense.

I'm still not getting why the mail breaking the delph story which turned out to be accurate is seen as a stain on their reputation.

I do agree it's an awful paper overall though

If we get an experienced one it makes no sense to loan an up and coming one if you are not signing them at the end of that loan though. With the money coming in surely it is better to buy your up and coming and tie then down.

[dcdavecollett]

What if they're not into being tied down?

Sorry...

[Matt Collins]

Tim might consider it like delofeu at Everton. Get them in for a year and then hope they want to stay (I know there was a year long gap in the middle). Also, frankly, we need to make sure we stay in the league and that has to come before other considerations

Not just the Birmingham Mail who have it in for us......

I'd take that a bit more seriously if they hadn't ignored all the new signings that we paid for.

Can't they print some proper news?

Yet somehow we've still managed to piss the other lot off (OK their "biggest" fan)

I agree it should be the otter way round.  Loan the experienced one and buy a younger player.
