Delph and Vlaar Targeting Villa Exit

Up to three Villa players could leave the club in January, with Villa’s poor form contributing to potential exits. Ron Vlaar, is yet to sign a new contract with Aston Villa and at this moment appears unlikely. Manchester United are keeping an eye out on the Dutch defender and would be willing to offer up to £6 million for his services.

Fabian Delph is another player that could leave club, with Liverpool, Tottenham and Arsenal all monitoring the situation. It’s believed that neither players are happy with the direction the club are moving in and could possibly snub new contracts in order to force a move out of Villa Park.

Bacuna is the third player that could potentially leave the club having been limited to only 4 appearances it appears as though he will evaluate his future at the club. Apparently the arrival of Roy Keane has hindered his progression at the club this season.

All in all, it’s not been positive for Aston Villa over the past few weeks. Aston Villa haven’t won since early September and since then only scored one goal. Players are being unsettled and questioning the direction the club is heading in. It’s difficult to keep key players if they see no bright future with the club. Having said that, the Villa board should be blamed for failing to tie up Delph much earlier. Towards the end of last season, Delph did say that he was happy at the club and he would be content with staying for the rest of his career. That was the time period in which you offer a man a contract. Losing both Delph and Vlaar would be a disaster as they have been our best players this season.

      Well I guess one point out of a possible 24 ain’t too bad…

  4. Well stupid woman commentator saying Villa was very poor, thought as better performance, yes last 5 mins was worrying but did the lads get stuck in.

      Why have you labelled her ‘stupid woman commentator’ for saying what we’ve all said for the last three years? Better performance? Anything I’ve read says we never looked like winning. Pop the champagne corks if you want and celebrate our first point in 24.

        Qpr winning 1.0 ffs we r going down

      2. SEB, not agreeing on the day what she thought, it was a game to watch, yes course we are dire and have been for 4 years and more, but saying how the hell would she know , probability she’s south rather than middle in her opinion. Media man they say anything for money. Watch the game and then think did we have a go for once.

      Woman shouldn’t be anywhere near the men’s game imho they have their own game to comment on. And no I’m not sexist before the politically correct come on I believe in equal rights for both sexes but men’s football should be for men sick of all these bimbo sky presenters who only got job because their dads played or just on their looks. Why don’t they work in the women’s game instead. Rant over.

          I second that. I sense an element of jealously, because these stupid women know more about footy than he ever could!!

          1. Helenius are you a prick all your life or do you take a day off, I’m getting a little fed up with your innuendos, button it dick head. I’ve yet to see your input on this site that makes sense.

            OohAhPaulMcGrath

            I doubt it Helenius they have never played at the level the men have so what qualifies them over a male commentator.

          3. There better looking for starters.

            Ahahahahaha……pot kettle Bill, and what innuendo would this be???? I stated that these women know more about footy than oohaah…..no innuendo there old boy……I suggest you go sit in dictionary corner and calm the fuck down.
            Fool.

          5. Just got out of bed Helenius, bit late with that comment, and as usual nothing but sarcastic innuendo . If not a 10 year old boy, either way simple minded, might grow up one day, please make it soon Helenius getting fed up of idiots.

      2. Ooha are you Andy Gray in disguise????

        1. Bum Bum avatar

          Richard Keys. The amount of sexist, homophobic, misogynistic and downright rascit comments on this site sum up why gates are declining. Who would want to sit next to someone spouting this sort of rhetoric?

          1. Bum bum who the fuck is Richard Keys, going to have to look up misogynistic, never heard that before, does it play football.:-)

          2. I love women Bum bum, I’m married to one, 54 years.

          andy Gray was correct what next a woman managing us ffs. Complete joke woman should stay in their own sport and not hijack ours no fuckin escape

          1. Wow Oohah, that’s a misogynistic remark , you cannot say that, I know you don’t hate a women, do you.

            1. OohAhPaulMcGrath avatar
              OohAhPaulMcGrath

              Course I don’t hate them no problem with equal rights in any walk of life just not football its a mans game. All I’m saying is why can’t Gabby (I only got job because of dad) yorath and co work on the womans game why are they hijacking ours.

          2. You’ve got to move with Times ooha shackling women to the sink is now illegal.

              Ha ha I know that Giddy. But all woman are employed around the peripherals of football just to accommodate them in the men’s game. For example assistant lines woman, but no ref, motd host but no pundits, present but not commentate. It’s ridiculous just employing them to be politically correct when they offer no more than eye candy. Interestingly enough a good friend of mine whos female and been a villa season ticket holder from birth thinks the same as me. She said that she would rather listen to men as they are more credible and played at a higher level. She said that if she wanted to watch woman she will watch the villa ladies not the men’s lol

      3. “Woman shouldn’t be anywhere near the men’s game.”
        Not sexist? The Sex Discrimination Act 1975 ring any bells?

    3. Bum Bum avatar

      Bit old fashioned are we Bill? ‘Women’ commentators!!!!! Who’d have thought!

      1. Not at all bum bum, I watch my young granddaughter play for Coventry , and I have to say the young girls do know how to play the game, a BBC women program will be on ladies taking up the game soon, should open peoples eyes.

          Nothing against woman playing in their own league but why have they got to come into the men’s game. They have never played the game at top prem level like the men and most non league men’s teams would beat the best woman teams imo

          1. Bum Bum avatar

            So should any woman sitting in the stands keep their mouth shut and just talk about kittens???

            1. OohAhPaulMcGrath avatar
              OohAhPaulMcGrath

              No that’s different but all sky and politically correct bbc do is shove out the men in favour of woman totally wrong imo

      Just watching qpr game they are having a right good go at city and unlucky not to be ahead. Ok they may lose but at least they look like they know what they are doing ffs

    Some great last ditch defending and Guzan gave us a point today. Gabby’s chance 1st half was our only clear cut opportunity. Poor going forward, God knows where our next goals coming from.

  7. Jvillan I streamed it, we missed a chance in the first half with Abonglahor only the keeper to beat, puts it over the bar, yes we was defending for our lives after Baker went off, be interested to see match of the day, remember Cole came on, Carroll, and Nolan, that made them come at us. We are still a poor side but more enthusiasm I’d say.

  8. Are Abonglahor, Sanderos and Cuzan new signings that we’ve made?

    1. #HELENIUS avatar

      Lol. That’s the fantastic Bill for ya.

    We’ve just come away with a point from a place where the likes of Man City and Liverpool have fallen.. the only headline we should be reading is our losing streak has come to an end..

  10. I can only guess that most of you didnt watch the game! They battered us for 90 mins! We had a couple of chances on the counter, but bar colossal performances from Vlaar, Baker and Guzan that was a 7th straight defeat.

    Downing best player on park, we are just lucky Carroll didnt come on 20 mins earlier.

    The only positive, bar the 3 players mentioned above, is that (at times) Baker and Sanchez looks like they could be top players for us,…sadly this is important because I cant see how we will keep Vlaar or Delph.

    1. Bum Bum avatar

      Fair point. Shame we don’t have a manager who can organise them properly.

    2. OohAhPaulMcGrath avatar
      OohAhPaulMcGrath

      Vlaar and Delph are no loss imo. Whether we keep them or not we will still struggle. Delph is a sending if waiting to happen and Vlaar takes ‘the winter break’ debate to a whole new level as he has platinum leave every season ffs

    Some other site saying that it’s being reported Lerner will give Lambert 20 million in January to bring in the replacements for Delph and Vlaar?

  12. So it’s going to cost Lerner FUCK all then??he’ll be getting his dollar back.
