Sandwolf posted:Why even make the original statement though??? Would anyone have really disdained him for going to City before that statement? That's what I don't get about this. Also serves me right for assuming the picture was illegitimate. I will never doubt random twitter pictures again.

What a weird loving turnaround. Surely Benteke leaving couldn't have had that much of an effect?

Maybe he fact that the club decided to unload Bentekkers had something to do with the change of heart?????? Why stay at a poo poo club if said poo poo club is offloading all its other talent?

Delph has been the only force in our midfield since Young/Milner/Barry/Downing left. Benteke has been our only competent striker since ... Dwight Yorke? We're proper hosed.

Delph should be getting a new PR guy. What a dumb chain of events for something. You could give him the benefit of the doubt and say villa was pushing him out for good money. But for ~10m I rather doubt that.

Randy Lerner is taking down Sherwood like he took down Lambert. He couldn't even organise a dodgy foreign takeover of a Premier League club, something that Portsmouth did about nine times.

Parody Threads posted:Maybe he fact that the club decided to unload Bentekkers had something to do with the change of heart?????? Villa haven't decided to sell Benteke; the valuation that Villa placed on him has, allegedly, been met so contractually he can talk to whoever meets that valuation. Why would Villa want to get rid of Benteke? I've read elsewhere that originally Delph was told by City that he would be behind Pogba in the pecking order, but over the last week that situation changed. Who knows. In any case, this is a bit of a weasel move after releasing a statement that he was staying last week.

I don't even think this is as good as the Babelcopeter, Liverpool paying $35,000,000 for Andy Carroll, or Arsenal's $40,000,001 Suarez bid. It's pretty good, though. So where are we on the homegrown player count? That's Hart, Clichy, Sterling, Delph ... I think someone said two kids were going to be called up. So I guess they need 2 more to field a 25 man roster? blue footed boobie fucked around with this message at 19:31 on Jul 17, 2015 |

Looking at City's squad they only have Kompany, Demichelis and Mangala as natural CBs. Sagna or Zaba could switch over but that'd be a spot to look for an English player. http://www.mcfc.co.uk/teams/first-team Would United sell them Smalling? or there's some guy 6'1" named Ben Gibson for Boro/u21 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England_national_under-21_football_team#Current_squad maybe Jagielka for a low price because of his age

It still seems a bit weird city didn't go in for Clyne or Schneiderlin. Both seemed like no brainers. e: I didn't realize Zabaleta was only 30. I was sure he was like 34. blue footed boobie fucked around with this message at 20:20 on Jul 17, 2015 |

Also, you can register players under 21 to make up the numbers, from what I know. They can buy all the Englishmen they want, but none of them will be locally trained (trained at club, basically), and you have to have at least four who are locally trained. How is it even possible for a professional club to put themselves in such a retarded position?

Vlaar was totally average and a liability and I was happy to see him go. Delph was pretty good but not irreplaceable. Only thing that worries me is benteke going because I have no idea where our goals are going to come from unless we make some good signings, but I can't see who we can attract that would score us enough goals. Seriously though, wtf delph. What an oaf. I hope someone flies a helicopter of his loyalty statements over villa park when man city visit. FABIAN WEALTH

No one even uses their full squad, anyway. A bunch of kids who might get 5mins on the field in the final game of the group stage make up the last 3 or 4 players of Arsenal's squad.
