Ed, are chelsea really going after benteke? {Ed018's Note - not that ive heard}

Believable4 Unbelievable4

Hi all.
Villa fan here.
Just like to know if you guys would like Benteke!
I am hoping not, due to his experience, he is a very good player.
but would he get the playing time with Ba, Torres, etc.
Hope this is all paper talk.

I'd take Benteke and give you Ba.

Problem solved

Agree4 Disagree2

I'd like to think that Lukaku will be given a decent run in the first XI. Think he could better Benteke's maiden season. Looks quicker and stronger.

Agree4 Disagree4

Thanks guys.
Thought more of you would respond to this one.
I have just read there MIGHT be a 20mil release clause in Bentekes Contract, don't think so but its .
I still think he will be with us for another year, then depending on our progress who knows.
Benteke for Ba: no chance
Lakaku + 15mil maybe

Whether you like it or not Benteke will be leaving you this season
Hopefully you get a decent replacement to keep you up like he did as Villa are a great club

Agree2 Disagree1

Well, Benteke has handed in a transfer request. Not sure that was the best way to approach the situation. I am not too sure how I feel about us moving for him. On the one hand; he was very good last season, not perfect, but good enough. On the other hand; I think Lukaku is just as good and we have already bought him. I do not think that we need both players. I think Benteke should stay at Villa for at least one more season but obviously that looks increasingly unlikely.

He didn't keep us up, the team kept us up.
you might just as well say that about any one player at any team.
Thanks anyway.
Bye the way Villa top 9 Bet on it

Agree3 Disagree1

Lukaku + 15m? Are you out of your mind? That means you are saying Benteke is worth 30m +? Joker.

Agree9 Disagree4

Would you happen to know who Chelsea are looking at ED?

Cheers

From a villa fan I don't really think benteke is technical good enough and u already have lukaku who I think is probably around the same level if not better but 22million I think should be good enough

Agree0 Disagree0

With Arsenal looking at Huguain and/or Suarez, we could do a lot worse than spending good money on Benteke.

Send them a cash plus Ba deal (maybe a loan) and I think we could get this deal done.

Hopefully we get something sorted soon as it looks like we've missed out on our main striker targets

Agree3 Disagree1

Benteke has handed in a transfer request at both clubs he has been at now!
If you give us Ba + £20m, we call it a deal!

Agree4 Disagree2

Who needs Benteke when you have Drennan! Wouldn't mind Lukaku on loan though!

Y don't we sign jackson from porto or even yilmaz and leave the money hungry strikers And any news on kondogbia and I think di rossi is over the age

Believable2 Unbelievable2

I'd have liked to have seen Mario Gomez. I think he's the type of player we need!

Agree9 Disagree5

Ibrahimovic all day
Blr

Agree5 Disagree4

Porto are a pain to deal with at the best of times and with the income of money from Monaco, they don't need the money so would only sell for a stupid fee.

Eds are Chelsea really interested in De Rossi? I think it would be an inspired signing personally. People will say he is 29 and too old but people forget Zola was 30 when he joined. We'd get 3 great years from of Europe's best midfielders if we get him now. Many thanks - James13. {Ed018's Note - there is interest}

Believable10 Unbelievable4

Excellent. -James13

Agree1 Disagree4

Ballack and Maka both joined us aged 30. And look where that got us to.

JG

Agree4 Disagree4

Excellent news I really didn't believe chelsea were interested in him as he is a tad older than most of our recent signings, him and Luiz/van gink/lamps in CDM will be fantastic

Agree4 Disagree4

His wage demands are HIGHHHHHH

Agree5 Disagree1

Luiz won't be used in midfield anymore! We also have Mikel, Ramieres, Romeu, Ake, Chalobah, Josh. Will be interesting to see who is loaned out or sold.

Agree1 Disagree4

Mikel will likely be off to Turkey

Agree6 Disagree1

Ake is a CB

Agree1 Disagree0

Josh. Lol

Agree3 Disagree2

Ake plays left back actually, but he plays as defensive midfield too. did you not see him play for chelsea last season?

Agree0 Disagree0

Luiz is a world class CB and should be nowhere near our midfield.
