Bad news.

exactly once again given into villa's demands

Agreed.

A. He's not that good
B. Giving Martin oneill 25m is daft
C. I don't like us getting shafted, no matter how sodding rich we are<br /><br />-- Sun Jul 25, 2010 9:30 am --<br /><br />

Really hope this happens, sorry for the rag comparison, but he'll be our Paul Scholes, for many years to come.

You have got to be joking. Paul Scholes is one of the most naturally talented footballers this country has ever produced and has been one of the best midfielder players in the world for donkeys years.

Milner is a bit of a clodhopper and has had one decent season. For all we know he'll be shite again next season.

Comparisons like yours are daft.

Seems like 10million too much in my opinion. Still a good player though, hope he definitely signs.

I agree but it seems that we need to pay over the odds to get players, when we come knocking clubs just think of a number then add £10m

What is O'Neill going to do with the money. If there's a better midfielder with the same qualities available for say £10m, why don't we buy them? Is it because they don't exist? Milner is worth about £18m, so including premiums for him being English, villa not wanting to sell and us being loaded, £25m is about as good as it will get

Parker will cost at least £15m, especially as west ham will know villa have the money. Ozil will want a top side if he moves this summer and is more of a silva than a milner, anyway.

As for a player exchange, I'd rather give them £25m in cash than say £18m and Ireland, as that's much more likely to bite us

We pay over the odds for our players, we certainly shouldn't be letting our players go on the cheap..£4m for Bellamy no chance Twitcher, £10m then maybe
