Would be great for a one year deal but we’ll probably give him a 3 year deal or something

Boy at my work saw Villa a couple of dozen times last year and literally refused to believe we had a chance of signing him.  Said he was POTY since Xmas for Villa, and would be the best signing any Scottish team made this close season, bar none.

My mate has a ST at villa and said pretty much the same-reckons if they’d stayed down they would have kept him.

fingers crossed.

Villa mate also stated  he’s old school and I quote “.No way will c****like Scott Brown roll into Tynecastle and take liberties. He’ll be excellent in the derbies too.”

 

really liking the sound of this guy-exactly what we need.

Played 40 games in the championship for a team that got promoted last year but wouldn't be good enough for Hearts :rofl:

So Villa fans say he’d be great but punters who have looked at Wikipedia and seen his age say nah? 

Kickback at its best

Bang on, will be a tremendous signing for the club if we can get it over the line.

Tbf not all Villa fans say that. Those I've spoken to have been pretty mixed in their views.

 

Personally, I reckon he'll be solid and individually really good but not good enough to transform our fortunes on his own. We'll still need a dynamic central midfielder if we want to be in the mix for Europe.

I would imagine so, at his age it’s unlikely anyone will give more than 12 months.

 

Though we actually do have a little bit of history of giving older players contract lengths longer than I think we should. McLean and Hughes spring to mind. Part of that might be to secure the signing by overall paying  a player more money over a longer period of time as opposed to higher weekly wage due to budgets. I don’t know.

 

 

 

 

I still think McLean could have been a much better signing if we had played him properly.

 

I like a team with a mix of older and younger players.

Probably because of Alex Macdonads teams.

It's unlikely that we can sign quality like Whelan who is younger.

I shall be pleasantly surprised if we do manage to secure his services.

We will need to find that from the youngsters.

We cannot afford a dynamic midfielder.

Most Hearts supporters I encounter share my opinion that Levein needs to go.

If you are looking for the person “sucking the life” out of the Hearts support its our current Manager!

 

But one of Scotland’s best players, just signed for us having been managed by Levein for 18 months, says Levein is the main reason he signed.....

 

Who to believe?

I wish there was a transfer system for supporters.      A good few could **** right off to some shitehole.

Reading that Whelan has checked with Mick Mccarthy that this move will not rule him out of the Irish team, I assume he has also seeked assurance from Levein that he will play if fit.

when he had some support around him at the start of the season McLean was excellent.. we were at our best with Uche, Naismith and McLean.

I don't care where we get him from, but we need one.

 

However I don't believe that we can't afford a dynamic midfielder.

This sounds like exactly the sort of player we need to stiffen our midfield and should complement our other signings like Naismith, Walker and Washington. Has anyone actually witnessed him training with us today or is it just media reports?

It's true though. Naismith rates Levein.

I hope we sign Glen Whelan, I think he would be an excellent signing for us, just don't let him take penalties, missed one for Villa last season in added time that done my coupon for over £300, air was blue and I called him all the names under the sun.

He might slaver a bit but he's 100% correct on that one I'm afraid.

Glenn Whelan would be an excellent signing for us. One year with an option, if he'd accept that.
