Why is the bald bloke with an iPad on every 10 minutes to show the total spent? It isn't children in need night

I know, what's it going to be next? The Sky Sports news team singing the grease megamix?

[Malandro]

be a bit disappointed if Bobby Bowry is our only signing today

Everton trying to get Essien

That would be a great signing for anyone. Essien is a beast.


Where do they find the youths on Sky to loiter behind reporters. Shoot em. Shoot em all!!

I didn't think Everton had loads of money , would be a great signing for us . Have him on a loan if stays fit .

Can I just remind everyone that this is Clint Dempsey we are talking about.

I don't for one minute believe Villa were seriously after Dempsey. 

Dempsey has been Liverpool bound all summer; he's probably already chosen his new Merseyside home and school for the kids at this stage.  Dempsey is so far removed from the profile of player that Lambert is targeting that I can only conclude the "bid" was made to put the willies up Genk.  I don't know, maybe the story came from Fulham in order to squeeze top dollar from the Scousers, but I'm fairly sure signing Dempsey would just not fit in with what Lambert's trying to do at Villa Park.

Liverpool probably want Sturridge . Dempsey will be plan B .

Any spotting of Lerner jet in brussells yet?

From Sky;

Sky Sports sources understand striker Christian Benteke is on a private jet to Birmingham to discuss personal terms and have a medical at Aston Villa.

Wonder if its Randy's jet?

I'm not the only one who's had at dig at SSN's today, but seems as you kindly and now predictably picked my post out, i'll bear it in mind.

[mr underhill]

the day has addled my brain but was a previous poster implying that benteke was birmingham bound last night and has simply been lying low somewhere today in anticipation of a deal being done?
