Sparkle Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 One common denominator in the huge sales of Kodoja McCormack and Hogan - they all went to Aston Villa in the championship and they are still there with wages that are crippling the football club - shame thier bubble burst before they could think they could afford Vydra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Personally I wouldn’t buy Vydra. But that is because I’m on minimum wage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undisclosed is what it will be and undisclosed is all anyone will know. Reported fees will be conjecture. £11m is the minimum it will be, and I'm perfectly happy with that. Such drama queens about. Not according to Nixon. £11m max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's what his source 'thinks' and as well connected as he may be, I doubt his source is one of the people actively negotiating. Secondly, he's merely stating that the fee is £11m, he hasn't commented on the potential for add-ons. Simply reacted to someone saying that the FEE is £15m with "Not that high."

Besides, I ask the same question I asked regarding Hughes - if £11m is the total fee, and if that is so far below his value as some people seem to think, why is no other club coming in for him?

I don't know why others aren't interested enough to put bids in too. I would have thought teams in the lower half of the prem would take a chance with him. Fulham, Palace, Hudds, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topram Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Guarantee that Nixon doesn’t know the price, might know the upfront but will not have a clue on add ons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie20 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Not surprised that some posters want to believe the fee to be as low as £11m - gives them another stick with which to indirectly beat the club, or more specifically, the owner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papahet Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Why shouldn't Morris take the blame though? prior to him coming in FFP wasn't an issue and our wage budget was under control. Since then we've had to cash in on Hendrick, Hughes, Ince and now Vydra. We have one asset left in that squad and he's leaving to a fellow Championship side, that's pretty depressing if you ask me. People act as if he's done something extraordinary, all he's actually done is blown a ton of wonga trying to get out this division and now trying his best to recoup it. Hardly a miracle worker is he? Had a shocker of a tenure so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
