Agbonlahor & Young For £45Million

Escapini 13 May 2010, 12:21 1 minute read

That’s the price success. Or failure. Difficult to place a fag paper between the two if your a Villa fan, I’d imagine. You won’t guess who is putting up the lolly even if I were to give you one hundred clues.

Oh alright, it’s that lot at Eastlands. And if I were Marty I’d sell, sell, sell.

Lets look at the facts. Neither player are South Africa bound and this is down to their shortcomings and no conspiracy. Young, the one time Fantasy Football banker is now a liability. His crosses are less fun than the ones the Romans used.

Gabby was never a goal machine and now his strike rate has been eclipsed by British Airways.

There is no money coming from Randy, he’s made that much clear – and if Marty is to stay and this will presumably be to improve, then he one hundred percent not achieve this with the same thin squad and some fanciful belief in ‘the kids’.

This is the Premiership, where money talks.

Well now, when it comes to football, one man has for many years been the most noticeable, the most controversial, and occasionally the most successful blogger this country has ever produced. His pithy words and abrasive style make him as famous off the pitch as he is on it. This man is Escapini. "I love football. Football she's a cruel mistress. She's, she's more than a mistress. She's a wife, she's a mother, she's a daughter, she's an errant child. She's a… she's a… she can make you laugh, she make you cry. She can bring tears me eyes. She can bring blood to me shoulders. She can bring a kettle to the boil." "Cause football is about nothing, unless it's about something and what it is about, is football."
