Summer transfer rumours, speculation and out-and-out b*ll*cks.

Monaco about to be relegated from French league, they got any decent players?

Teams with decent players don't get relegated.

Today's question:

What do Roy Keane, Fabrizio Ravenelli, Juninho, Scott Parker, Andrei Kanchelskis, Mark Viduka, Joe Cole, Stuart Pearce, Michael Owen and Peter Beardsley all have in common?

And I would add Charlie Adam to that list as well.

Being rumoured today, emphasis rumour, Sunday Express, that Bent is considering his future at Villa if Young and Downing are sold, he apparently has been making noises to friends and on the net that Villa have no ambition.

Also a report in the Express about Lerner to make a decision on Houlliers health report today!!!!.

Bents only been here long enough to go to the toilet for a number 2 and have a quick shave.

No offence but what a load of bollocks!

What exactly, here's the link, http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/249509/Top-clubs-battle-for-Belgian-best-

 Or your impression of it.

4 Year contract or not, the right money comes in for Bent and he'd dump on Villa from a great height IMO. As Sunderland found out earlier in the season, when he doesn't want to be somewhere he goes on a sabbatical, what would concern me is the fact that if there is any truth in this report he's already making noises after just half a season at Villa.

11 Goals in 23 Games is hardly a sabbatical

Or more importantly 8 goals in 20 Premiership league appearances. All the same he's striker that's what he's paid to do, and on the whole he makes a decent job of it, still wouldn't doubt for a second in which direction he would go if the right money came in for him, and, how those goals would dry up if he didn't get his way to leave if that's what he wanted, but that's just opinion.

Which can only be a good thing. I'd back Bannan ahead of him. Not that I'm particularly convinced that Bannan will make it I'm just less convinced by Adam.

A friend of mine listened to Scotland v ireland on the wireless yesterday and he said the commentators were raving about bannan once he came on.  Changed the game etc...

n'zogbia would be a good replacement for ash in my opinion

n'zogbia would be a good replacement for ash in my opinion 

Maybe a slight improvement?

Oh  yes Ash Young. Had a couple of good seasons with Aston Villa when  he was "unknown" but than got found out by the opposition and later on by the Referees. Since than he  has not been able to make much of an impact through his footballing skills and has resorted to "me me  prima donna type  character" on the pitch  attracting maximum attention and exerting minimum influence on the game.

Recently his head has been turned by his Agent offering him the bounty of a squad player possibly for a CL club and he is now in up there with his head in cloud 9 waiting for it. He is in for a shock however if he does move on as at best he will be a spare ***** at a wedding but he will have a restful season next year sitting on a bench or some comfy seats  watching most of the games.

And they say we aren't fickle.  Just because he leaving doesn't make him instantly shit.

Not if we play 4 3 3 as we have Gabby, Fonz, Wiemann and Heskey in reserve to swop/rotate with Bent
