daveoftherovers Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 We are in need of a much needed morale boost at the club. Agreed, this is brilliant news, watched the youtube clip and I'm looking forward to watching this lad take his first free kick or dart past his real full right back victim (Everton! Bet he can't wait LOL ) and with the support of our full backs it will be great! And by all accounts we could have 2 more Aussies! Well done Paul Ince!

dr_awol Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Sky sports has revealed its official we've got our man!!!!!! woop woop Carlos Villanueva, looks different class, I just think we should have signed him outright, what happens if at the end of next season, Europe's top want him, meanwhile Villanueva cant agree terms with us? But i'm very happy to see him here, he will provide many assists next season.

But i'm very happy to see him here, he will provide many assists next season. Its catch 22 though, we sign him now for 4M (lot of money for us plus his contract) and then he flops, we lose a lot of cash in the process. We do what we've done, loan with contract agreed and first option with fee set, he sets the prem on fire and lets say the gooners have a word in his ear. I do not know what would happen in this instance can he refuse to join us? or is it water tight with us being the only ones who can say no (given JW I will assume this option). At the end of the day I would like to assume that if he hits it off it will be down to the fact he enjoys being at the club and fits in and so he would want to stay with us for the time being, given that we showed faith in him.
frosty Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Good news he's finally signed! Can't wait to see him play
andrew92 Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 be nice if rovers wold release a statement before march!!!

vintageadidas Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 It is not offical until it is on the Rovers website. Did Ince sign him from the video he found on You Tube? haha, hope he plays at Wolves!
EwoodGlory Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 I'll wait for Rovers or Nicko to confirm it. Though that might take a while Don't trust Sky.
b12_simon Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 I'll wait for Rovers or Nicko to confirm it. I'll wait for Rovers
American Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 I'll wait for Rovers or Nicko to confirm it. Though that might take a while Don't trust Sky. Funny that we have another journalist on here who has actually interviewed the man about his move, but if Nicko doesn't say it, it hasn't happened yet.
alexanders Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 QOTSA hasn't claimed that everything is OK due to the work-permit and paperwork, has he?
yeti-dog Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 I'll wait for Rovers This boy looks class.I also doubt Hughes would have gone for him,he seemed to prefer the more functional type of player.If Villaneuva is going to be indicative of the type of player Ince is going to chase then we might actually be good to watch this coming season!

But i'm very happy to see him here, he will provide many assists next season. We don't have to wait until the end of the season. If he shows that he is obviously good enough after 2 months we could sign him then, before he starts attracting attention from bigger clubs. But if we had signed him outright and he wasn't good enough, that would be a waste of money that we couldn't afford.

But i'm very happy to see him here, he will provide many assists next season. Wouldn't we have first dibs on him, as we're reported to have an option of £4m to buy in the January window?
DeadlyDirk Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Wouldn't we have first dibs on him, as we're reported to have an option of £4m to buy in the January window? I'm pretty sure that it'll be wrote into the loan contract that during the loan period we are the only club that can purchase him.
novella Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 i think ince and the board will have made sure that if this lad turns out to be a world beater we will have first dibs on him. no way can i see our board and ince allowing him the chance to be snatched away straight after his loan. also remember that a loan deals gives us chance to free up cash for the positions we need filling.
