Milner is a respected part of their set up
not going to play in majority of games, but a safe back up in cup games and off the bench.
for his experience Iwould have him in a heart beat

Bring in Tom Davies.
Heard Southampton are interested
He's the type of midfielder bite and energy that can add to squad.

Similarly Lookmans is linked on loan to Fulham
A flying wing forward .
I would be looking at the deal if the cakes are available they you have to buy the whole

Tom Davies always looked very average to me, got in a poor Everton midfield very young but if they are ready to shift him out that suggests he isn’t all that

I too would be underwhelmed to get Tom Davies. He is a bang average squad filler for me.

Samatta on the way out and one or two coming in according to SKY a few minutes ago. No names given as to who might be arriving though.

I think they actually said DS hasn’t ruled out more players coming in and Samatta leaving. Nothing concrete at all, but wouldn’t be surprised by either...we do need strengthening in certain positions and we do need to get rid of a number of players.

Oxlade Chamberlain was being linked with Wolves the other day - if he was allowed to leave Liverpool then he'd be great - think he could get a higher placed club that us to be honest though.

We’re 9th in the league and above Wolves 😉

More chance of re-signing Joe Bennett for left back than Milner for midfield :D

I was watching Cardiff on the telly at the weekend and saw Bennett playing for them and when I looked him up was surprised to see that he is now 30 years old.  I imagined him to be about twenty-four!

A comment was made a couple of weeks ago about signing a midfielder who 'had done the lot'.  Milner fits that bill.  I wouldn't be in the slightest bit surprised for him to be offered a 3 year contract, given how dedicated he is.

Are you Tom Fox or Paul Faulkner?

Neither, but if he was to come to Villa, we would need to make it worth his while. Perhaps a 2 year contract with a years option on one side or the other. Who knows.

Yeah, I think we could offer him a deal of that length that would make us hard to refuse (assuming he wants to keep playing).
Also worth noting that he’s played at left back quite frequently for Liverpool so add that dimension.

I’d be delighted.

Fair point, its not wholly without precedent either Vardy and Willian have both recently been given three year deals.

I think he would be a positive influence even he wasn’t playing.  Not that there should be any charity but a role that would transition him into coaching might be appealing for all parties.

He is exactly what we need in the squad. But we won’t get him.

I can see him doing a Gary McAllister and playing until he's almost forty if he wants.
