There is one tweeterer person who is totally convinced that he is coming on Friday and many saying it's Belhander again. Not a clue but he looks a quality little footballer judging by YouTube and his stats last season for assists. We are certainly being linked with a fair few in the hole type forward midfielders. Formations could be very flexible next season.

Just for the record, the earliest recorded sighting of the Hutton dressed as Lahm joke on H&V

Just thought i'd seen a world class fullback at Villa Park  for talks.My mistake, it was Hutton dressed as Lahm

Found an earlier one than that from 2010 in the jokes section. Oh well. I hadn't heard it before "my one" but hold my hands up.

Pete  colley didnt tip any of our 6 signings so far and he has little idea whats going on , would be nice if we could get the lad in as he looks to be what we need.

Yep. In fact, Colley tweeted at the end of last week that he'd heard Villa weren't getting Belhanda.... about three weeks after most of us had given up on the idea... he seems particularly off the pace.

These are just transfer gossip sights. How much they really know is up for discussion. I hope they are full of shite.
They do need to fill their pages! I could have written this article and I know as much about transfers as MON!

Yes, and they feed each other, so if one posts a 'scoop' three or four more concoct more detailed variations, and subsequently the tabloid hacks take it as corroborated sources.

It was a general comment, not aimed at specific individuals.

what the f**k is Sports direct



Tottenham Shitspur fear they will be gazumped by London rivals Chavski in their bid for Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke.
Spurs have reportedly opened talks with Villa over a possible move for the big Belgian – who bagged 19 goals in the Premier League last season.
But SportsDirect News has learned the Blues have identified Benteke as a possible alternative to Napoli forward Edinson Cavani.
Boss Jose Mourinho tabled a concrete offer for the Uruguay hitman on Tuesday, though French giants Paris Saint-Germain also made a megabucks bid for the star.
However, both offers fell below Cavani’s £54m release fee, and the Italian club have insisted he will not be sold unless the clause is triggered.
And that has seen Mourinho explore other options.
He is desperate to land a marquee striker this summer, and is also monitoring Wayne Rooney’s situation at Manchester United.
But Benteke is seen as a cut-price fall-back option.
Villa would demand at least £25m for their prized asset, and Mourinho would be willing to match their asking price – given his relatively inexpensive wages.
The star earns £20,000-a-week at Villa Park - £230,000-a-week less than Rooney does at United – and Chavski would have no problem in tripling his wages at the Bridge.
And the lure of Champions League football could see Benteke snub Shite for the Blues if both clubs table bids – though Tottenham also hold an interest in Valencia striker Roberto Soldado, and are close to sealing a deal for Barcelona star David Villa.

I think that you'd have to be very slow-witted to get in the least bit worked up about someone called 'The Newshound' repeating on Caughtoffside.com something that he's read on sportsdirectnews.com.

Its because 'Arry and his car window are not in the prem,  there ain't much info.

"Simon 'ackney at stockport, ees a smashin lad, is muvvers ad a season ticket down Loftus for donkeys. good player but eed never come to us, one of the sheffield teams al avim"

Its just not the same is it?
