Aston Villa boss Martin O'Neill is believed to be preparing a £15million move for Porto striker Radamel Falcao.

http://www.eatsleepsport.com/aston-villa/villa-plan-porto-raid-1059539.html

This must be to replace Torres at Liverpool as we all know Martin is only staying untill the season ticket renewal deadline - ssshh don't tell talksport but I saw Sparky Hughes down VP earlier looking to get the family ticket deal for the Blackburn game and arguing with the ticket office about his booking history ;)

Of all the transfer rumours so far, I hope this one is true.

Another one of 'Arrys babies might be going back to him. Joe Cole to Spurs. Replacement for a departing Modric maybe?

I remember chatting to a couple of Spurs fans last season before our home game against them and they said Jenas was a "1 good game in 4 player" and that he was due a good game that day - and he duly delivered.

Aston Villa want to sign Crystal Palace's 19-year-old defender Nathaniel Clyne to replace Luke Young who is eager to return to London.

Who?

I thought Clyne did very well against us in both matches this season and can play on both flanks.  I woud prefer someone young like him in reserve than Shorey/Young/Beye on far greater wages

MON rates Jenas very highly and tried to buy him last year, so I was told.


I think there's a great player in there with Jenas, I'm just not convinced it will ever come out on a consistant basis.

He's a better player than Sidwell though, absolutely no doubt.

Danny Devito is better than Sidwell.

That confirms his 'better then Sidwell' tag then!

Nathan Clyne was mentioned last summer, so with one or more full backs looking to leave it makes sense.  Him and Manolev would probably not cost much more then we'd get for Luke Young, Shorey and Beye, although I'd rather Young stayed.

Falcao is one of those players where I'm immediately think "YES - get him in, Martin" without ever having seen him play.

Jenas is not as good as Milner so I doubt he would swap Spurs bench for ours.  He is way better than Sidwell though.

He's 56 and retired.  But that's not the point, he's Brazilian.  MON will not sign a Brazilian.

MON had not heard of him 12 months ago when we were linked with him for about 6 million before his move to Porto, so can't see it now!


Would take Clyne for certain.

He's a right back we signed from 'Boro.

He's class but he just can't get a game because the idiot has got it in his head that some spanish donkey is better there.

He will go to Fulham in the summer.
