All about the numbers, isn't it!<BR/><BR/>Keith: I'm not sure what to think about the whole mess. Barry is settled again for now, but it's hard to go back on all that's been said about wanting away over the summer.<BR/><BR/>It's like dating a girl and saying you like someone else. Once it's out there, the relationship is kinda frayed and on the outs until the inevitable actually happens.<BR/><BR/>And if being cup-tied does decrease the price tag a bit (as it seems to have done with Arshavin), why would Villa do that to themselves? They've got a bidder who is desperate to take Barry, so why give the discount?<BR/><BR/>Kyle: the rotation is the biggest thorn in our side. Ultimately, those that rotate in a little too frequently for my liking can't hold a candle to those rested and rotated out. Sad, really.<BR/><BR/>Berba: perhaps I should show more confidence, but I think I'm finally learning to curb that enthusiasm a bit. 2nd or even 1st are fantasies entertained only when I'm very drunk or very nostalgic.

Of course, that may depend on where the table stands; he's cup-tied until Feb. for Champs League now, so if Villa look like pressing on to fourth in the Winter window, he may just stick it out and play his CL footy at Villa Park. <BR/><BR/>Of course, that all also depends on Villa's success in a) The de la Red sweepstakes and b) the Michael Johnson sweepstakesEmail us athttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06952127683665557204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-34185639403670153032008-08-15T10:48:00.000-04:002008-08-15T10:48:00.000-04:00I think that it's all about sticking Keano between...I think that it's all about sticking Keano between Stevie and Torres.
