Summer 2013: Villa Transfers, Speculation, Suggestions and Rumours

[neo_Villan]

Cattermole - If Sunderland go down .  Would not hurt in the squad . Replace KEA , he's just another Kachloul but not as good .

We are already bottom of the fair play league and already have Delph to pick up bookings galore.

I dont mind people getting bookings If they show some passion , it;s the players who never get stuck in because they might mud their boots

You can get stuck in without getting sent off every five minutes. Regardless of his disciplinary record, I don't rate him anyway. Wouldn't suit our style at all.

Would prefer us to sign actual footballers, rather than scufflers like Cattermole.

The biggest complaint from Sunderland fans over the past 12 months seems to be the lack of quality they have in the centre of the park.  I don't see how signing Cattermole will be the answer to any deficiencies we have in that regard. 

He's always struck me as the kind of limited player that will eventually end up at B-lose, or somewhere equally uninspiring.

He hasn't learned how to tackle and has been playing at the highest levels of football for about a decade now. I wouldn't touch him with a bargepole.

Bradley Johnson - Norwich. Good all round midfielder.
Scott Sinclair - Man City. Winger. Loan
Danny Rose. Spurs. Left back.
James McCarthy. Wigan. Midfielder.
Arouna Kone. Wigan. Striker.
Jonas Olsson. WBA. Centre back.

Done

Some good names there, Sinclair would be a great wide option.

No chance, there's nobody currently playing in the championship or league 1!

I've wondered whether we would go for Liam Bridcutt.

[The Left Side]

The media section of the AVFC website says that on the clubcall website (I know) that we are looking at Flamini from AC Milan, that would be nice!

[neo_Villan]

Seeing as a new centre-back is an absolute priority. Jores Okore would be a decent shout. Not sure if he unrealistic for us or not though.

Is that confirmed? Thought that was just paper talk.

The young Danish lad , why would he be unrealistic? Seems a decent shout and i daresay wages and fee wouldnt be out of reach.

Some interesting names being bandied about  tonight.

This for me. Ii have to agree that he is past his best and we do not need him. Younger blood with experience is out there.

It's the opposite for me, in all honesty. 

Our midfield is one of the weaker in the division, but I always feel confident we'll see more of the ball when we play Sunderland and Stoke, and dominate that area at least.
