If it's a midfielder, i'm betting it's an overseas one.
I would imagine the media would have sniffed out a realistic name if it was from the Premier League.

I noticed Ireland isnt going anywhere
There is a very good footballer there so I'm glad.

Let's hope GH can remake / remodel here.

Gerard, what happened with Ireland?

The news about Torres gave me a chuckle,for a couple of hours last night they must've been so pleased with themselves after signing Suariz. Listening to Fat Mick Quinn this morning is hilarious,deluded prick.

Have to agree with the Quinn comment, only because he has a dig at Villa at any opportunity.

Plus, he's like Jim Royle without being funny.

It looks like Michael Bradley from Borussia MG

That would be grand.

I've no idea what that says, but if it's that Bradley is joining Vila, the I'll be pretty happy - a very good player whenever I've seen him. Which is about four or five times, to be honest, so not many. But still, looks a top player to me.

Er, I mean I don't know what the media article says. I can understand Dave perfectly well.

Mostly. ;)

I hope someone panics sufficiently to buy Beye. That's a serious panic though.

Its a last-pick-of-ex-contestants-in-the-final-of-Apprentice panic pick. You hope for a sexy lady to take the edge off potential humiliation, but in the end you know you're going to end up with the bankrupted absolute bell-end who left in week one. That's Beye. On £40k a week.

Apparently he almost joined SHA a season or so ago. But then his wikipedia page also says he score 100, 98 and 97 goals in his last three seasons and now plays for Galatasaary, so I wouldn't necessarily believe it.

Google translation;

Aston Villa is located in Bradley poker front

The latest turn in the wrong Poker by Michael Bradley (23). The midfielder of Borussia Moenchengladbach faces a move to Aston Villa! The Premier League club wants to borrow the American, who stands at Borussia 2012 under contract until season's end and also to secure a purchase option.

In recent days, the tide turned in the case of Bradley several times. Until the mid-week had the best maps of Sunderland AFC in the poker game for the U.S. national team. Then became apparent a change in Turkey - but not to Galatasaray Istanbul, which showed interest, but to Fenerbahce, which also gave immediately an offer for Bradley.

At the last minute then Aston Villa came onto the scene and Bradley has now apparently convinced to switch to the Premier League table Thirteenth. Even though the transfer is not official.


With the commitment of Michael Fink (28) was the gap-year-old leaves the 23 already closed. The midfielder is on loan from Besiktas Istanbul . Fink, formerly with Eintracht Frankfurt and Arminia Bielefeld in contract costs, the Bundesliga bottom EUR 700,000 rental fee. At the Club of coach Bernd Schuster, he still had a contract running until 2012, was recently considered but no more.

If were talking midfielders I would try and hijack Sunderlands proposed loan deal for Muntari. This would have the two fold effect of 1. significantly improving our midfield and 2. pissing Sunderland off even more.

Muntari would be good but I think the fact Sunderland have 2 of his Ghana teammates already there maybe has swung things in favour of them.

Am I the only one that thinks Muntari is a complete liability then? Always looks ready to be sent off to me, and rarely played well apart from for Portsmouth at VP a couple of times.

There is another Ghanain midfielder I would much prefer but cannot recall the name of - really impressed in the world cup.


Michael Bradley would be a good signing though - works really hard, gets forward well and knows where the net is. American players invariably do well in the premiership.
