Be interested to see if he's our top earner now - that would be a sign of a new direction
Have to think he will be. Would say 25k a week is a conservative guess.

If the fee and wages are anywhere near what you'd expect it's a pretty big gamble IMO. Presumably a huge chunk of our budget on a guy who's had 2 good seasons in his career, the last of which was 5 years ago? He's undoubtedly talented and hopefully the fact he's coming here for probably far less than he could get elsewhere says a lot about his attitude. If the manager, the club and the CL are more important than the cash that's a good sign.

Fingers crossed it works out :rocker:

In the current market 4m isn't that big a fee. We can afford one or two such signings per year I think, better than doing what we have been doing and spending the same sum on four unknowns and/or Scottish league players.

This!!!!!

We have wasted an absolute fortune on players and spent next to nothing on some of the best players that have graced the parkhead turf.

Money spent is no indicator of how well a player is going to perform.

£3-4m is peanuts theses days. If he helps us qualify for the group stages then we recoup that, plus profit.

I don't see him feeling any pressure with that price tag either.

Got a good feeling about this one.

So what do villa fans say about him ? Here's a quote from a forum
of all the s**t in recent years for me he is easily the worst player to ever wear a Villa jersey, absolute crap and wouldnt be surprised he struggles in Scotland

never forgive Lambert for bringing this fraud to Villa

Just before the Dawn

sounds very like a player who wants to play for the Manager. That is bound to be a good thing. Excited at the prospect of Roberts, Dembele, Griffiths, Sinclair tearing the SPL apart.

Having never seen him (well I don't think I have) I hope he bring a touch of quality and goals from the left hand side.

Gordon

Lustig Sviatchenko Touré Tierney

Brown Bitton McGregor

Roberts Griffiths Sinclair

Think it's fair to say the midfield is the problem now.

Yet he was their joint top goalscorer on 6 goals 🙈😂

I'd be more worried about having payed 14m for Ross Mccormack who wouldn't get in ahead of Dembele or Griffiths for me. Sinclair will do well i reckon.

Not getting a game for man city is no disgrace , roberts can't get a game and villa is a club going backwards. I remember Sutton had one bad season at chelsea, hope he's half as good as big chris

Apparently Sinclair is getting the number 11 shirt previously worn by Boerrighter, Here's hoping this deal works out better!

Never got comments like this. How does your football knowledge depend on what team you support?
