Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[Dave Javu]

Milner's signed for Liverpool, poor lad.

Milner's signed for Liverpool, poor lad.

wow I thought he had more sense...mind you he will walk straight into that poor team...

[Duncan Shaw]

Good signing for them, wonder how much they are paying him?

[ROBBO]

Problem is we are going to have to pay over the odds, unless the money is generous what decent player is going to join Villa, praying for a takeover.

I'm sure he will get his best position and start every game. Pleased for him (not for Liverpool)
One of my favourite Villa players during Lerner era.

Yeah he's had a good run at City and has done about as well as could have been expected there, but he just wants to play most weeks which he should do at Anfield.

Thank fuck we don't have to pine over him all fucking season

[itbrvilla]

I think not finishing in the last safe space will put a lot of players off, who will now pick any of the teams above us if they have the chance.  What a fucking disaster of a season.

[OzVilla]

Milner going to Liverpool certainly  makes them a far more attractive proposition for Benteke as he improves them no end. Bugger.

[Boz]

According to The Sun* Cabaye has turned us down in favour of Crystal Palace. I don't know whether:-

a) To be pleased that we are looking at that type/quality of player;
b) To kill myself because a player allegedly turned us down in favour of Crystal "sodding" Palace; or
c) Not believe it because it is in The Sun.

I fear this sort of rejection by a player is indicative of how Villa are seen after our last few results and performance in the cup final. It appears Cleverley also has a better offer so Tim will need to get his scouts to identify some decent replacements at a cost Villa are willing to pay. This will not be an easy task.

[KRS]

Unfortunately correct. A spine of Milner and Benteke would instantly turn them into a much stronger team.

[passitsideways]

While Milner going there obviously improves them, I really doubt that players will perceive them as being a better proposition just because he's joined.

I thought the £32.5m clause was a sticking point for Liverpool who only want to pay £20m.

Maybe Chelsea would like him as a Drogba replacement.

[KRS]

Well the whole Benteke transfer saga is being played out in the media so at the moment there's no real evidence to support that he's likely to go there or if there's any stick to point with.

[OzVilla]

While Milner going there obviously improves them, I really doubt that players will perceive them as being a better proposition just because he's joined.

They will if Rodgers sells the intent they have to be playing CL football 12 months from now, signings like Milner certainly back up such a claim.

Him and Benteke's would have been the difference in quite a few games for 'The Mighty Reds YNWA' this season IMO.
