Mysteryman on Villatalk has endorsed the Solskjaer rumour(now I know he ballsed up on Mcleish, but still).

Endorsed as in said he thinks it's a good move or as in saying there's some truth in it?

He essentially said that what 'Trees' had been saying is true. So the latter.

R5 just confirmed Martinez talking to Liverpoo. Whelan must have agreed his transfer fee. Wanker! I'm very surprised that they want Martinez though. Oh well!

Ridiculous move in my opinion. Stop pissing about and get Lambert or Rodgers.

Personally, I'd back OGS over Rodgers any day.

It wont be Martinez. Liverpool ask for permission to speak to him, Wigan say yes. On the BBC now.

It's still nothing more than internet rumour and people throwing money at bookies. According to R5 'a source close to Villa' says we haven't even drawn up a shortlist yet!

I think R5 might be well off the mark there. They realised he was going after Bolton, do you think they wouldn't have started working out who they wanted then?

ogs is a brilliantly inventive enterprising move. Not much experience but was a great player, appears to be a motivator, young, dynamic and won't come with any baggage. like it.

yep. Seems after all the turmoil last season they're willing to take another leap in the dark. He'll jump at the chance i guess but it could go tits-up very quickly.

I'm happy to be wrong, but they didn't have a bloody clue last year did they?

How is it ridiculous? Is it because we haven't seen him manage in the Prem? So what?

Would you have said Lambert or Rodgers would have been ridiculous this time last year?

Let's take a risk and try and be ahead of the game shall we?

Yeah how come Liverpool Sacked Kenny yesterday and now have permission to talk to Martinez? Did we not ask then? have we not asked Norwich?

Maybe just maybe we didn't want to talk to them?
