Marriott at Peterborough has scored 24 goals thus far. Just pointing it out.

Peterborough seem to have brought through quite a few prolific strikers in recent times. None of them seem to go on to very much though.

That's what the Express are saying.

Well if the oracle readers of Xia are correct we are going to sign someone soon. Wonder who it is.

Doc confirming the new signing. Tuanzebe?

Apparently Tuanzebe was at the game yesterday so putting two and two together I reckon it's Ian Bell.

I was at the game yesterday, so hopefully this means my childhood dream of signing for Villa is coming true.

Reports this morning suggest Palace have won the battle for Ulloa (sp).

That'll please the locals (down here). Not.

Maybe Benteke will be shipped-out if Leo decides to sip from the poisoned Palace chalice?

This is confusing most Palace fans, because they already have two domestic loans. None of them want the ones they already have sent back.

Talk that loftus cheek is out for the season so they may cancel the loan and free up space for a new one

You are Ian Bell?? Elite is one of my favourite games of all time! Legend mate.

Shame we didn't do that when Jetmaine Jenas suffered a similar fate.  Didn't we have to carry on paying?

Villa seem to be making a habit of signing players on my birthday, which is tomorrow so good chance of some news then in that case.

Real shame if we miss out on Ulloa, and I very much hope Bruce has a backup play. Hogan is made of glass, while Davis can't lead the line for weeks on end. Need a genuine option who can benefit from the exceptional service they will get from Snodgrass, Elmo, Adomah and Grealish. Rarely have we looked this creative, a striker like Ulloa would have a field day. Mind you so would Benteke.

Without wanting to put two and two together and making five, the fact we were supposedly thinking about Van Persie suggests there are leftfield options and a player like Benteke is not such a ridiculous bet. Not that I think that would happen, but if they pulled that off...even I'd consider automatic promotion a near-certainty.

As much as we would love Benteke there is nothing at all to suggest Benteke would give two fucks about coming back to us as a Championship club given how hard he worked to get away as a PL one.

There was mention on TalkSport last week about him possibly going to Chelsea.
