*Video* Milner's Facebook Answers

once you coughed up 30m, you can have him, then we'll sign someone for 8m ;) while milner flops for yous

What a pointless article. I must have missed the bit where Milner said that he wants to play for you lot??? "James Milners's Name Resurfaces On City Radar"??????. IF he goes (BIG IF), it will be to a team that will immediately improve his game etc. not his wage packet.

'can't keep hold of one of their prized assets' purely because of the obscene money in the game now. Come on folks, bit of humility as this is yet another ********isation of the league... something started by Chelsea. Going to be the ruination of the game imho.

Money IS the be all and end all of things whether we like it or not. Man City have more than anyone else. Fact. So it is likely that Milner will end up at Eastlands, BUT Citeh fans don't be kidded it WILL be on Villa's terms or not at all. If MON and Randy can't persuade Milner to sign a new contract they will name a price and will NOT budge. The price will be well in excess of real value. £30m minimum. If you want him, pay it or look elsewhere.

Stig - how exactly?

I stand corrected Bluedub, was looking at the related article link. But this video clip should be on the Villa site and not the City one. Other than a failed bid of £20 mil, there is NO connection between Milner and City whatsoever. It's a sad situation when the media is stirring/tapping up a player to go elsewhere just to fatten his wallett. Hating City isn't cool. Hating a club who's owners and fans think that they have a God given right to have any player ( even though they DIDN'T qualify for the Champs League) and talk about other contracted players as though they were their possession already is natural and I'm sure you would feel the same if the shoe was on the other foot.

Not even Utd have a divine right to prosperity. Fans all over would like to have owners that could keep the club safely locked into the upper echelons of the Premier League. It is not only money that wins the prizes but good management and a good team plan. AJ will be worth more in a year I wouldn't be at all surprised and how much hs he cost?

Stig, you feel all clubs smaller or not as successful as yourselves are 'nothing clubs'?! You need to take your moral compass for a service my friend and think before you type. You are blind to your own words, and that's pretty despicable.

We're crying in our beer leelindsay.

ok then my punt on the situation, i dont hate man city nor am i jealous of there new found wealth, when they were taken over and it was known that they would be minted i was chuffed to bits for them, as i see it any club that has to put up with the dirty non manc's for the last 100 years is entitled to there day, now they may have all this money and success for the next year/10 years or even 100 years, who knows i just hope they enjoy the ride. 2 years ago we alone tried to break the sky4 and just fell short, this year there was us, city and spuds and as much as i'd have loved us to get 4th as long as 1 of us did i was happy, so now we have dislodge 1 i can see another or many 2 next year being dislodged. on the milner debate, i have read a lot of football forums and a lot of city forums and the thing that gets me is the fans saying that man city will dictate the price, sadly this is not true, for players like milner where the villa dont need to sell or dont want 2 sell, then city will have to pay the price MoN and Randy set, if they dont like it they will move on and Jimmy will stay put and as he showed at newcastle, and would no doubt sign a new contract. anyway if you do get milner i hope he continues to become the player he can and not just sit on the bench, and i hope you continue to scare the sky4 in the future as they will be worrying so much about City , that the like of villa and spuds will continue to be there or they abouts for the top 4. so good luck lads and i hope you do get some success sooner rather than later, but please keep your feet on the ground and dont become arrogant like the scum from over the road at OT.
