I think we would have to play the fan card, which he might buy into with the fact he has won things at City and might, might want to play for a bit of love!

He could play with Clark or Baker I am sure. There are plenty of right footed centre half partnerships out there!

Brietkruz had the better reputation, Atkinson used to go on about what a great left foot he had, but it was Paul Calf-a-like Beinlich who went on to play for the national team.

I went to watch their debut for the reserves, and thought Breitkreutz looked fantastic, and Beinlich looked "up for it" at best.

Was it Beinlich who scored a screamer when we got otherwise battered at somewhere like Newcastle?

Beinlich scored a belter against Newcastle for the reserves during a 3-0 win at Villa Park. Brietkruz was playing in midfield too.

Lescott would be ideal and exactly the type of player we need in this team to help it develop.

Has this been on yet?

Aston Villa have agreed a fee with Molde for Vegard Forren, the highly rated centre back will fly in on Friday for a medical.

How many left footed partnerships are there? There's something about left footed players. They tend to be very uncomfortable on their wrong side

However I concede I didn't think clark and baker would ever play together in a two. And they did at least once

Bent going on loan to Cardiff? Just idle talk, I think.

Where's this from. Would fit the "I've never heard if him" criteria for a lambert signing! The only links I could find we're with Fulham, Everton and practically every club apart from villa

I think Forren is the guy Man U have been sniffing round for a while. ( playing for OGS's side). Certainly highly rated. Where's the story come from DC5?

Lescott on loan for the rest of the season would be a very good move. I'm not sure about paying £10m for him though at his age if that figure is true.

OGS was saying forren is discussing terms with someone but didn't say who. Also left footed . .

Mentioned Forren a couple of pages back having heard a very faint rumour there might be some interest, he'd be a really good signing, looks miles ahead of any other defenders in the norwegian league.  Like all Scandinavians he'd probably settle in quickly as well.

We'll need two centre backs i think, what with Dunne being out for a while and Baker being a tad injury prone.

Weren't Man City paying 100% or thereabout of Bellamys wages when he was on loan at Cardiff last year? Cant we fool them into a similar deal for Lescott?
