Ashley Williams

[arbok]

Am I right to think that there was more excitement when Sylvain Distin (another aging defender) signed?

 

[Azza]

So this looks like its on then.

Today? Maybe? Yes? Please?

Nope.

Think Williams would be seen as a more exciting out of the two.

When was the last time we took a premier league teams captain and best player? I'm excited by this one.

 

[Azza]

No, no, no and no

The Echo are saying the next 48 hours!!

Everton to sign Ashley Williams from Swansea after £10m deal agreed

Andy hunter isb generally spot on

 

[AdamEFC]

Just said on Radio City news, next 48 hours.

 

[bizzaro]

Yep. This forum would go crazy over any mediocre foreigner while going into a meltdown when we're signing a decent British player

Oh please!

He's 32 years of age.

Signing an aging defender for £10 million is hardly going to make people celebrate is it?

Getting as bad as the Fruity king thread in here.

 

[witchdoc187]

Our defence is rubbish. He is a good defender. What's not to like?

 

[zirc]

say what you want about his age, getting PL quality CBs is not easy these days and he is one of the best there is. Great signing.

I think a lot of people are still in the mindset of the times when we needed to approach each transfer as a profit making venture, this isn't the case anymore.

 

[blueboy1664]

this is exactly what we are crying out for

1. a no nonsense defender
2. premiership experience
3. leader
4. winner
5. scores goals
6. good in the air


We have Mori / Galloway/ Browning in the squad with unlimited qualtities that need guidance and leadership. I personally see this as a fantastic signing, take the financial hit but this is nothing against for our return

Wht chuck millions like MCFC at the likes of Otemendi / Mangala only to be shown that the premiership is a different beast for international players...

well done blues if this is taken over the line
