Comments for Martin O'Neill interested in Willy Sagnol? at http://www.avfcblog.com , comment 1 to 34 out of 20 comments http://www.avfcblog.com Fri, 25 Jul 2008 05:15:51 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.2 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18894 I have been watching the russian team zenit st petersburg and they have two very good young players,Arshavin and Anyukov. One is a right back and the other a right sided attacking player. Both are quick,clever and two footed players. Could probably pick them up for a few million each. - Dags Thu, 10 Apr 2008 13:13:32 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18893 ok fair enough... I just burst out laughing when I saw it on the evening mail site earlier! What a shambles though! - Woodinho Thu, 10 Apr 2008 12:56:44 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18892 Woodinho they're not on the radar mate .. let them worry about us - i really dont care what happens to them which is why nothing has been written here - it is in the forum though ;) - Damian Thu, 10 Apr 2008 12:43:43 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18891 I cant beleive no-one has mentioned the scum directors Brady and Sullivan getting arrested.... So who's got the first song to be sung from the Holte End then??? Something about Karen Brady "going down" would be good! - Woodinho Thu, 10 Apr 2008 12:30:23 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18890 well Man Utd showed how far we have to go last night. they put out pretty much a 2nd team and beat Roma. The following 11 didnt even make there side last night. Kuscak, evra, oshea, vidic, neville, scholes, nani, fletcher, ronaldo, saha, rooney!!! i would say we have 1 player that would get in this team. oneil has been there 2 years and has signed such a pathetic bunch of players that only 1 player maybe 2 in our squad would get in Man Utd's 24!!! I am sorry guys but thats the benchmark and we are further than ever off it!! because the player he has signed are shambolic - bazza Thu, 10 Apr 2008 11:40:47 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18889 As much as Jinsky's attitude sucks like a 10 dollah whore I have to say he has a point. Zat Knight and Reo-Coker don't seem that good to me. - Mick70 Thu, 10 Apr 2008 09:38:16 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18888 Jinksy i can't be arsed giving a proper reply to your comment it's a waste of my time responding to a idiot like you. www.youtubeline.com - youtubeline Thu, 10 Apr 2008 08:04:52 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18886 I agree with Chrisodon. Look how Bolton fared with mature players, they survived the prem and got into europe. They didn't have the right balance though. Not enough youth in the team. I think a few experienced players will add to our stamina throughout our season. That's why Laursen has been so good for us. I'd give the experienced players a chance just to pull us up and attract a few other players on the way. Ronaldinho maybe? Or is he over the hill as well? - Arrlui Thu, 10 Apr 2008 02:23:47 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18885 in a football team you need experiance so the younger player might be able to learn a little bit more from his fellow oldie ok he might only have 2 or 3 yrs left in him but if hes good enough lets sign him. - oldman villain Thu, 10 Apr 2008 01:11:16 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18884 Jinksy i can't be arsed giving a proper reply to your comment it's a waste of my time responding to a idiot like you. - Chrisodon Wed, 09 Apr 2008 22:18:21 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18883 Jinksy, you dont wanna be the kid who snuck down the stairs to find your parents putting the presents under the tree, and ruin christmas for everyone......It takes time mate...Weve been given a sniff (with are early performances this year) but because the sqaud is thin we ran out of puff. I would rather it happen now, than if we had signed any old person or squad players as they are known, we would have stuff our wage budget and jeopardized this summers spending even more. If we didnt have Knight who would your choice be to fill Davies spot and dont cop out and say Cahill....Knights ok, hes not making the big money and hes there as a back up, Reo is ok too. Just remember its Randy with the cash, your talking like its MON coming up with the coin...... - Leroy Wed, 09 Apr 2008 21:01:44 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18882 Chrisodon - Should be Muppett What are you banging on about you acuse me of wanting this and that & i didn't say any of it. I just want our manager & Billionaire chairman to invest in top quality players FULL STOP. Not rubbish players like Reo Joker, Zat Knight & Wayne Routledge. - jinksy Wed, 09 Apr 2008 19:57:53 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18881 [quote]All of the rumours we're hearing at the moment are pretty much for over the hill squad players.[/quote] Hang on a minute we have got loads of young athletic talent with the mixture of chubby old experienced pros we will have a very dynamic team. Don't forget we have the best youth academy in the country to pick from! Whether we get into Europe or not we need to build on the squad, flashing the cash gets you nowhere look at Man City. Buying the correct players who fit within the team and have the right attitude is a must and there is nothing wrong with the older players admittedly I hope they are Beckham quality. Lovin the name Willey Sagnol! - satch Wed, 09 Apr 2008 17:55:52 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18880 you need youth and experience in a good squad - sam_villa 1 Wed, 09 Apr 2008 17:48:01 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18879 @ Jinksy. Just because we have a billionaire running the club doesn't mean a load of young top talent is going to want to come they want trophys and money. It's a stupid policy just looking to buy prospects because prospects don't always develop in to top players. You need a steady base of youth and experience some players that the youth can look up to and learn off. If what you're saying was to happen we'd be leeds but with even more thickle fans just wanting instant success rather than a steady progression. - Chrisodon Wed, 09 Apr 2008 17:42:48 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18878 maybe oneill is looking for older players who ahve the quality to get us where we need to be because the younger expensive players just wont come, if we can buy older players that can player for a season and get us into Europe then this will open the doors for a younger generation in the following season. - GonzoAvfc Wed, 09 Apr 2008 16:43:13 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18877 I think Sagnol would be a good signing for us beacuse even though he is 31 he still is a good player and has the experince. I think if we get into europe this season and we was to sign him his experince would be valuable and would help the young lads through the season. Also he would give us the balance we need with experince and youngsters. - Jonesy2k8 Wed, 09 Apr 2008 16:24:19 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18876 Nothing would suprise me about MON. Anyone who would pay 8million for Nigel Reo Joker & start the season without a right back never mind cover at right back needs to seriously look at themselves. Buying old has been wouldn't bother me if - 1. We had a massive squad & were just getting in cover. 2. If we still had Doug Ellis as Chairman. People keep forgetting we've got a Billionaire Chairman so wht do we but crap players like Coker & Zat Knight????? We need to think & spend big. MON is not at Leicester or Celtic anymore with no money so stop compairing. Think Big, Spend Big or i'm sorry Mr MON you'll get hounded out. This Summer is Xmas eve & if he doesn't spend big the kids wont get any presents & that will be the end of him. - jinksy Wed, 09 Apr 2008 15:53:08 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18875 I hope he is intrested as he is a good strong right back and likes to get forward i suppose tho the only reason martin is after him is because he cost less than 5million - Villa_Rules Wed, 09 Apr 2008 15:37:33 +0100 http://www.avfcblog.com/content/view/2288/70/#comment-18873 The reason Arsenal lost last night was because they lacked maturity in defence when needed most (and they have Senderos playing for them..) My point is, we're losing an experienced defender in Mellberg this summer so buying someone of Sagnol's age/profile would be positive. I think the idea of buying young blood is not the policy - olof the other reindeer Wed, 09 Apr 2008 13:16:21 +0100
