Villa doesn't want to talk about speculations

Asked about the latest rumours linking him with a move to Barcelona (read more here), Valencia forward and Spanish international David Villa (27) has said at a press conference that he's not considering a transfer at this moment:

"I use to think about and make a decision on things when the options are real. Nobody has told me at this point that the club needs to sell me. Until that happens, I'm not thinking about that possibility.

There are speculations about the club having to put me for sale because they need money but you cannot know if this will come true. That's why I'm calm about all this. I just keep thinking about working, there are still a lot of things left for me this season and we'll see what could come after that. I just don't think it's logical to talk now about situations that aren't sure and that maybe won't happen at all."

Villa's agent José Luis Tamargo meanwhile said to Valencia regional newspaper Las Provincias that an exit will depend on Valencia: "If David will leave one day, it will be because Valencia asks him to, because they tell him that they need to sell him for economic reasons. That's the only way he will go. David is happy in Valencia, he has his life here, he feels very comfortable and he doesn't think about anything else than continue to play at Valencia.

If Valencia would be obliged to sell him, David Villa won't leave this country. He won't go to Italy, nor to England, an option we already rejected. It's absurd that he's now again linked with Manchester City. We've always said we don't want to go to England. If we said 'no' to Chelsea, we won't change our mind for Manchester City now. That doesn't make sense."

If Eto'o leaves Villa is the ultimate choice, no doubt. He have all the skills to succeed as a center in Barcelonas attack. He is great in the national team, better then Torres, and Spain plays a game that looks a lot like Blaugranas.

If Eto'o leaves (hoping he stays) I think Torres should be our number 1 choice to replace him. Villa is a very good player but Torres is younger, faster and in my opinion has more of an 'X' factor than Villa. Torres is better than Benzema and anyone could see him linking up wonderfully with Messi, Henry or Ribery and Xavi et al.

Torres is the next Gerrard for Liverpool. Without him, Liverpool cant breathe !
They ll never let go of him. They dont hav a financial crisis or whtever to force him to leave.
Besides... fans will probably burn the statium if they sell him.

Villa is the PERFECT choice

your forggeting a really important thing, ( BOJAN ).
if eto'o is to leave villa is the perfect choice , why ?
simply because of his age
think about it, villa has at least 4 years left in him and by the time he leaves bojan will be 22 and ready to take over.
imagen what would happen to bojan when a 20 year old joins the club and plays as a starter , it will surley crush him.

don't forget about AGUERO

YOUNG, SKILLED, TALENTED, GOOD FINISHING ABILITY....

Agüero would be a god replacer to but hamid_ali got a great point with the age of Villa and Bojan.

I think Torres is more of a counter player that prefers a direct type of football. He is a far better striker in England then he was in Spain.
