Summer Transfer Thread: Speculation, Lies, Absolute Cr*p and Bosman Rumours

He will end up at Sunderland. I know it.........fits the bill perfectly for MON.

[mrfuse]

All the press seem to think Dempsey will be going to the dippers...damn it

[pr_N'villa]

Lambert will talk to PF regarding accepted offer. Maybe its something that developed early this morning and would explain why lambert is unaware

10.20 in the morning and I've refreshed this page about 1000,000 times already. I think I might bite the bullet and shut this mutha off until midnight and then check back. Hopefully to see 4 new faces posing with the shirt.

Danny Rose off to Blunderland, Warnock likely to remain at Villa? Blackburn swap for Nzonzi?
Dempsey, yes please?

Phil McNulty at the BBC tweeted:

Interesting info from @laura_mail that Villa have agreed fee for Dempsey. Just sort of player needed - but will they get it over the line?

More from Sky ............................................................Godzvilla!
Possible developments on Clint Dempsey's future as Sky Sports understands Fulham have agreed a fee with Aston Villa for the USA international. However, Villa boss Paul Lambert is apparently unaware of any possible deal for Dempsey, who has also been linked with Liverpool and Sunderland.

[Irish villain]

It must be manic behind the scenes.

[David_Nab]

He can want to go Liverpool all he wants but looks like they are looking at other options and won't pay the fee ..only offer players in part ex

Dempsey and Benteke are completely different players, so if we are in for Dempsey then I would say we are in for both. Nice to see us being linked with Bony too which I would say is the backup plan if the Benteke deal doesnt go through.

Maybe we are in for both and Bent is on his way. There have been reports of fielding off enquiries from other clubs.

Only from that fake MysteryMan account on twitter.

Could be as simple as that. Lambo might not be aware it was accepted yet if it happened while he was in bed/at home.

“@MatKendrick
 Paul Lambert insists that the policy of recruiting players from lower leagues/abroad is purely down to him "I make the football decisions."”

Or maybe they're after both to play alongside and make chances for the best English finisher around?

HAHAHA MON in for Jenas, Dempsey is nailed on for us

[Jarpie]

Apparently Babel bought off his own contract so he can go to anywhere he wants without transfer fee. Would take him as freebie, decent player and is quite experienced for his age.
