Bucks Saint

*like*

I have given my view, but I do appreciate that it does not compute for you, because it is not PS4 every time for everyone. Sorry I will try my best to agree 100% on other things, which amazingly I do sometimes on other threads.

Yes I know that you dont accept any view that differs from yours.

Lukaku is an example of short term and soon to be long term gain

Open minded and non abusive as ever. Good to know you are consistent at least.

I have done. It depends on what the buyer wants. The merits of each, which will not appeal to every buyer, are spelt out at length in these 8 pages

yes, in order to get rid of our most troublesome, expensive and high wage earning player that very few want to take, we have secured a deal to achieve this, that gets us a good player for at least a year as well.

The bastion of facts that is Wikipedia already lists Tadier as "a French-born Algerian footballer who plays for Premier League club Southampton FC and the Algeria national team".

I have not avoided anything apart from the personal abuse that you love to dish out to anyone who does share your deep seated love of the PS4. My view remains as it has been throughout, I can see that there are merits to both consoles and it depends on what the user wants. I cant be bothered to rehash all of the pages of reasons why on here, which anyone can read. I would just say again that its particularly worth reading the views of people who own the console that they praise, or criticise

Villa mate thinks he is their best player, even including Benteke, and would be a massive loss. Expect them to want more

Absolutely this. MS may tweet all he likes about 6 years destroyed in one hour, but I feel the same about him. I have really rated him and enjoyed seeing him grow and develop over 6 years, but right now he behaving like a spoilt child who forgets how very fortunate and well paid he is. Frankly the firmer the club are with him the better.

Draw your own conclusions for anyone who resorts to abuse so quickly (as shown in the first 2 pages of this thread too); alternatively read the full thread and see what anyone even having the temerity to suggest that the Xbox might actually be OK (based on actual ownership and useage) gets back

And the defence rests M'lud.

quick public statement needed. "Request has been rejected and MS is not, nor will be, for sale"

How do you know he did not? Plenty of info to suggest that the club had a meeting with MS and his agent yesterday PM, before the media interviews.

Well, you could read this thread - thats what it is about. But if you dont have time I could summarise: Pap believes* that the PS4 is utterly the dogs bollix. Further, Pap believes* that the Xbox One is not in the same league and cites lots of technical and other deficiencies. Lots of people who actually own the Xbox say that they either dont experience these deficiencies, or dont notice them and they are very pleased with the Xbox. Hope that helps *"believes" may just be understating it a little bit. sorry

I was questioning your point about an "extension is seen by players as being loyal in that the club....cash in more". I doubt this for most of them and if it is a factor, its a distant last

Really? I think it is 1) better terms; 2) security / length of cash cow; 3) sometimes a signing fee; 4) because they like playing football and being paid for it; and a very very distant 5), for some of them, maybe, its being "loyal"

Lovren popped back to say goodbye and waved his new contract about?

Sample size? Were there any other choices?

This. And even if they do so, just to save face / honour what RK said yesterday, its the right thing to do. Its about time more teams did this - they are all super rich now and can afford to hold players to contracts if they want to. Good. If MS wants to sulk ect, then fine him and stick him with the reserves. I dont think that he will, but so be it

How many times have you seen VD play? Genuine question, not saying you are wrong

Confusing post. You say no point in trying to keep unhappy players but then say we should have kept all of them. It's late, way too late, but we are making a stand and rightly so.

Gossiping about MoPo

Yeah this. Thought he was brave coming on at all, could easily have said nothing or just done a written interview with full edit rights
