QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Aug 3 2009, 06:50 AM)  It just seemed a bit cocky! Agreed. QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ Aug 3 2009, 06:50 AM) A note on the Arsenal game today, just watched the re-run. Jack Wilshire was superb, he certainly fits the Arsenal style of play. I only watched the goals and some highlights. I heard he was very good at their previous game against Atletico Madrid too. Surprisingly, Wenger did not give him many chances last season. |

Surprisingly, Wenger did not give him many chances last season. I think the issue with players at his age is that while they may have the ability to play in the league, they haven't got the body. He's not long turned 17 and his body hasn't stopped growing, injuries would shorten his career. Brian Little played for Villa decades ago at 17, he had a few early injuries and ended up retiring at 26. Looks a very talented player, can only be good news for England. |

QUOTE Delph Fee Agreed Aston Villa can confirm that a fee has been agreed with Leeds United for Fabian Delph. The 19-year-old has made 53 appearances for the Elland Road side as well as representing England at under-19 and under-21 levels. A Leeds United spokesman said the Yorkshire club: "Wishes to place on record our appreciation for the honourable manner in which Aston Villa has conducted their interest in the player. "Leeds has resisted approaches from other FA Premier League clubs since agreeing terms with Aston Villa." Aston Villa has been given permission to speak with the player and further updates will be announced on www.avfc.co.uk as appropriate. I don't know too much about this kid, but I've heard alot about him this season. I think the fact that he's a 19 year old playing in League 1, but has a £6m price tag says alot about him. Hopefully he's good enough to cut it at the top level. Also interested that since accepting our bid they've turned down other approaches. Maybe have a good reputation does still count for something in football. |

It seems that Portsmouth are in big financial trouble. The takeover by Sulaiman Al Fahim may not materialise which means they'll need to sell most of their players. Though Fahim not being involved with an EPL club is a good thing, he was the prick that was involved in the City takeover sayin they're going to buy Ronaldo, Torres, etc.
Bournmouth, West Ham, Southampton. 3 clubs Redknapp went to, financially destroyed, then ended up getting relagted. Pompey look to be next on Redknapps reign of terror. "If you can't beat them, join them.. then spend all their money, relegate them, then leave them" This must be Redknapps motto. This post has been edited by kurtsimonw: Aug 4 2009, 05:32 AM |

Do you think there's any chance that he might come to Villa one day kurt? |

No. There's bad blood between Villa and Redknapp. He's an idiot, he tried to annoy our fans saying "I enjoy coming to Villa Park, I've had quite a few succesful attempts here".. he's won twice in about 15 games against us. What an idiot. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) |

Oh come on man this is just the exception to the rule, it cannot be denied that Wenger is not the biggest England helper. But why should he be anyway, he is doing (or at least used to do) his job perfectly. Are you in love with him? Are you in love with that pedophile!??! *runs away as fast as donkeys in the sight of chickens - which is not so fast but well I'm doing my best* |

*Senderos is going to Everton according to a few sources, one being the Swiss FA.
*Rumour is that Lescott has handed in transfer request as he wants to move to Man City. Everton fans labeling Man City classless and whatever else.. they do realise Man City have loaned them an £18m striker, for free, for another season right? *Liverpool have reached a deal with Madrid for Alonso. I don't rate him too highly, but it's hilarious how this has played ot after last summer. |

kurtis what makes delusion fc so deluded then i d like to know the fact that theyre stadium is 60,000 odd or that they have some of the most passionate fans in the world in contrast to at least the villans who think they are so high up there after just one good season (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

QUOTE *Villa have 15 teams within a 50 miles radius to compete with for fans. Newcastle have 3. In theory, Newcastles attendances should be 5 times higher than Villas, they aren't. We also hold the record for highest average attendances in the Third Division (30,000), I bet Newcastle will barely get above that in the Second Division. So yeah, I'm sure with the 10 million people that live in the North East, they should be able to get a damn good amount of fans. *Top 6 finishes in the EPL Villa - 8 Newcastle 7 *Top 10 finishes in the EPL Villa - 13 Newcastle - 8 *Relegations from the EPL Villa - 0 Newcastle 1 These are heavily in our favour, but Ill be the first to admit that the EPL isn't everything. Let's see what history thinks. *League titles Villa - 7 Newcastle - 4 *FA Cups Villa - 7 Newcastle - 6 *League Cup Villa - 5 Newcastle - 0 *Champions of Europe Villa - 1 Newcastle - 0 *Years since last major trophy Villa - 13 Newcastle - 54 So you're "villans who think they are so high up there after just one good season (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) " comment doesn't really make sense in many ways. We finished 6th last season, just like the season before. So how is that 'one good season'? We are better now, in the EPL years and throughout history, then Newcastle. Just because Sky Sports is obsessed with them, doesn't mean they're a big club. They're not even the biggest clun in the North East. So, to put it simply. They're not even in our league.. literally.
