Villa puts value on Milner

Soccer Betting Lines

06/02/2010 - Birmingham, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Aston Villa have reportedly told Manchester City that they will not sell James Milner for less than $45 million.

Last month the former Newcastle and Leeds United midfielder was linked with a big-money switch to Eastlands, although Villa boss Martin O'Neill is reluctant to sell a player who was included in Fabio Capello's England squad for the World Cup on Tuesday.

O'Neill and chairman Randy Lerner reportedly held talks with Milner earlier in the week and although the player did not sign a new contract, the discussions are believed to have been positive.

Milner still has two years remaining on his deal and was reportedly the subject of a $30 million bid from City two weeks ago.

The 24-year-old has scored 21 goals in 125 appearances for Villa since his move from Newcastle in August 2008.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
