Summer 2013: Villa Transfers, Speculation, Suggestions and Rumours

[neo_Villan]

All over Twitter that RMC radio (French station who are quite reliable apparently) have claimed Belhanda has 'chosen' to come to Villa.

Twitter quoting a frog radio station. Must be true then

If this transfer doesn't happen (and I'll only believe it when I see him stretching a Villa shirt on the OS), then I hope people won't get on the club's back for not coughing up the cash for him.

Just watched youtube clips - wow remind me of Luis Figo

any player that is willing to make moves and has supreme skill in all areas of the pitch is rather special. You see wingers do that stuff all the time where they get the ball early and have time and space. This boy does it all over the place and not only that, is willing to take it between more than one player. He takes a mean free kick, can take penalties, has tremendous vision and looks as strong as an ox.

We are going to be so disappointed when he signs for Milan aren't we? ... cries

Compared to Pires on Wikipedia, I could cope with that!

[neo_Villan]

Not the Villa Pires hopefully

Is that when he was waddling about at Leeds?

His parents are my parents neighbours.

His mom runs the "Flat Out Ironing Company".

Another Lee Sharpe factoid there.

Yes and no.  It will clearly be a shame if we don't get him as he looks top drawer, but that there are very strong links to a player with this skillset is very encouraging, hopefully we've got other options who can offer similar.

It was, he lived in Wetherby which was where pretty much all the Leeds players lived. Doubt any of the current crop could afford to live there now. He was always 'injured'.

No album made on cocaine has ever been any good.

Liam Gallagher was a coke head, that's surely enough warning?

Kendrick claims that he doubts the deal will happen.

@MatKendrick: The noises coming from overseas about Belhanda are different to what we're hearing over here. Doubt very much that one will happen #avfc
