" Charlie Austin "

Sky bet

Aston Villa are preparing a £15m bid for Queens Park Rangers' 25-year-old striker Charlie Austin.

£15mil? Any body else think english players prices are ever so slightly inflated?

i think he'll go for more than that, probably about £20m, even though he's in the last year of his deal.

17 goals in 30 league starts is a fantastic return. strikers who are proven to score goals go for £25m plus and plus he is english. they'll be queuing up to sign him.

he knows where the back of the net is, but his averageness in trapping the ball will always hold him back. No way is he worth £15mil

we'll see, won't we. clubs are desperate for goalscorers and with clubs having more money than ever, £15m is not even that much money now. 75% of premier league teams could buy a player for that money now.

17 goals in 30 premier league games? if we had him up front we would have stayed up when we were in the PL.

Not worth that money,teams are to quick to jump at players after 1 gd season,cos he's English price will always be higher,look at caulker

Good player but 15 million ? The clubs are going mad with the new tv money

no offence but i think its bullshit, randy learner ? has been actively looking to sell the club and is spending less and less on transfers, really cant see them being aloud to splash that much on a player unless they are planning to offload benteke, especially considering they play with 2 fast wingers and the big target man in the middle, austin really wouldnt fit in
