He'll be tearing the League up this season - if its not with us, I bet the same ones who think he isn't good enough will be bemoaning that we didn't sign him.

What do you reckon the offer will be though? Defoe plus £5 or 6m? I just have no faith that we will put in a bid that Villa will even take seriously.

Opening bid of 6 million rising to 9 over two years probably lol

Probably 15 million.

Lets see Benteke!

Pace
Power
Strength
Great in the air
Excellent hold up play
Works his nuts off
And can finish as 19 goals for a struggling villa side proves

Yep, I think I'd take him every day of the week!

Plus, I reckon he will get better year on year with more experience.

Villa said in a statement they allowed him till 18th July off, no idea why though.

There was quote last night from a source at Villa saying they'll only accept a suitable offer within a specified time frame....ie they didn't want their plans and pre season totally fucked. I immediately thought it had us written all over it lol...in other words, it more or less implied...fuck off Levy if you think you're getting him on the cheap on deadline day lol :)

Lambert will not want Defoe and Ade won't be going there either. Levy, Baldini and AVB aren't stupid, if they want to offer players along with cash for him we will offer the likes of Naughton, Huddlestone and Livermore, who Villa may actually be interested in.

Doubt Villa will go as low as 15 million. Nothing short of 20 million will get him IMO.
Oh I agree....but you don't start with an offer of 20 million do you?

We'll offer say 15, they'll say 25+....then its about coming as close together as possible.

That quote comes from their statement.

I doubt money has even entered DL's mind. Defoe, Naughton and his granny's chocolate cake recipe is our opening bid.
