gunslinger 270 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Thats rubbish, astronomical Premiership wages are a stereotypical mhedia myth. Not all players down south earn £50k or £100k a week. There will be loads who are well within our budget.not ones that moved for 8 million i suspect? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jocky Broon 207 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Rino was just being asked about walter, nothing to see here Carlos I have heard nothing of, what age is he now 28? Not that I'd say no, but I want Ally to be looking for a CB to offer 6-8 years or one to make profit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunslinger 270 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Nonsense. So Chris Smalling will be on £40k/£50k a week then? Stereotypical assumptions.20-25 but he is very young. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jela 20,361 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Would welcome him back.I don't even know the full story about his departure to this day !Was in Florida when it all happened and wasn't really interested in finding out once I got back, was too gutted.

sdunsmb 43 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Nonsense. So Chris Smalling will be on £40k/£50k a week then? Stereotypical assumptions.Who said anything about 40/50k? Why are you just making up figures? FYI, a lot of people argue with you because the majority of what you say defies all logic/sense. An EPL player signed for £8m will probably be on about 30k - minimum. Generally not the type of players we should be looking at. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broxi 11,484 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Don't think so lol I spoke to someone a few months ago who was adamant he was taking a EPL job, and apart from AV, I can't imagine who else it would beChelsea or Man City Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turnberry18 3,204 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Chelsea or Man City For curiosity sake I would love to see Walter at Man City. As for Chelsea, everyone has had a go in the past few years, why not Walter?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulRFC1 115 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 would love it but wages will be too high, insane he hasn't made it at villa....no idea why he was being played at right back when he was a far better centre half than villa already had.He was a key player for O'Neill in the season when they were challenging for 4th.

gunslinger 270 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 I wont argue with that.which makes it around double our current top whack. if cuellars prepared to be reasonable and so are av i think we could just about afford him. i suspect or wage cap wont shift above 20k.

Goianegra 4,682 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 I love him, but I don't think I respect him as much as many on here - mainly just because of the manner in which he left. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirWalterSmithLegend 206 Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Carlos certainly earned far more money from Villa than he did for us.Not sure he would be willing to take a big drop to suit our budget.I dont doubt that mate, of course he would have got an increase but we simply do not know what his personal circumstances are or what he wants out of the rest of his career.
