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

[Irish villain]

Have we signed anybody? And more importantly, is yer woman in the video still single?

[ozzjim]

the club is looking to do a loan deal with a promising player who has recently done well in MLS. #AVFC

fro the official twitter.

Robbie Keane.

Does the official Twitter feed usually do this sort of 'hint, hint' thing?

Doesnt the mls start again in a months time?

Yes. So it is either till the summer, or for about 4 games, so taking the piss even more!

Bullshit! Beckham has already signed up for PSG.

[eastie]

I bet you what you like it is Robbie Keane.

As i said, the promising thing will be a joke, suggesting he's an up and coming player rather than a grizzled veteran.

I'd be glad to have him back, but really, him on loan and a kid from the French second division is way, way short of what we needed this window.

Pathetically so.

But surely it would only be for 3 weeks if it was keane?

[manic-road]

Beckham, oh no he has just signed for someone else.

[PaulWinch again]

Won't be Keane, he'd only be available for a game now.

They are sufficiently short sighted.

In fact, they probably haven't realised.

[eastie]

Brooklyn beckham or krulak jnr?

[PeterWithesShin]

Seems strange for Villa to release this info before it's done.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Just beat me paulie- promising suggests young ?

I think they're joking.

You'd think that this is hardly the time to be joking. Wankers!

[citizenDJ]

There hasn't been a player who has been on loan to the MLS, is there? Does that even happen? Because a loanee from there would be almost entirely pointless.


It's going to be Robbie Keane, isn't it?

SIgh.

[ozzjim]

Has to be until the end of the season, because if not it is a right piss take. Whoever the feck it is.

[ROBBO]

A younk kid and a possible loan or two for a team in danger of relegation and an owner who has always supplied the money in the past just smells of putting the books in order.

[onje_villa]

They must be pretty sure to start hinting at something.
