Jordan Amavi - gone again

[Boz]

I've seen reports that the guy isn't that keen to come, which doesn't sound like the most encouraging start.

If he's seen Villa performances for the last four years you can understand why he's not too keen. Perhaps Tim can convince him the future's bright 

Arsenal are also said to be interested so if he's any good we might be not his first choice.

According to YouTube he's a definite upgrade on what we have already. Then again that's not too difficult to achieve.

He's French.

Perhaps he's seen the effect on Zog's dress sense since he's been with us!

And just the effect on Zog generally.

We probably have to strike quickly and offer him a shitload of money in doing so. Even then, some other team in a better situation than us will probably hijack things at the last minute.

[Clampy]

Can't say i've ever heard of him, which is not a bad thing really.

[Toronto Villa]

Links like this dismiss the constant theory that Sherwood is only after Spurs or ex Spurs players.

[tomd2103]

where in the back does he play ??

LB. Hopefully the only LB I see for a while. I'm tired of the f**kers.

Cissokho, Luna, Bennett, Richardson.  A complete Lambert clusterfuck of attempts to buy a decent fullback. 4 players all still on the wage bill probably picking up £60k at least between them all and costing £6-7m to buy. In other words probably nearly £20m on shite fullbacks.

In fairness, I think Richardson is OK a squad option covering the odd game in midfield or at LB.

[MoetVillan]

in fairness I don't think we have sorted this position out since before Lerner was here

Way to early to draw a conclusion on what his transfer activity will be like, one way or another.

Well, not really.

Actual signings would, though.

A few Twatterers are also suggesting we're in for his team-mate Valentin Eyserric too, a playmaker, and a player that I've only ever heard of because of a horror-tackle that snapped an opponent's leg in half and lead to an 11 game ban!

[PaulWinch again]

Isn't he supposed to be really good? Fingers crossed.

Well, it would be a change to have a signing who was out all the time because he was suspended rather than being out all the time because he was injured.

[villadelph]

Seems like our only competition is Arsenal at the moment, but with Gibbs and Monreal his first team action would no doubt be limited. Let's hope he gives us a shot..

[RussellC]

Just had a look at his own Twitter page. He's re-tweeted a couple of things that would suggest he's on the move, although nothing directly mentioning Villa. This could be a go-er.
