Nzonzi would make Steve Ireland look like Javi Martinez. A world class European Champ league efficient and winning midfielder.

I'd swap shawcross or kightly for delfoneso.

We wont get more than 8m for Bent. Bare in mind it's pubic knowledge he wants out, and that we're happy to let him go.
Feeling a little fruity are we, Summers?!

Dries Martens rumour has popped up a couple of times on my twatter feed, anyone know where this link is coming from?

Belgium?
Netherlands- he actually plays in eredivise. Very effective for PSV and along with Gerogie Wijnaldum(shirts sales!)  Jermain Lens, Tim Matarz are all realistic targets who can add goals and technique to villa team. Also on subject of dutch footie league I mentioned previously and there have been links to goal machine Finnbogason of Heereveen. Another striker will should defiantly look at is Jozy Altidore , from the USA and has had prem and la Liga experience. Some people may remember this guy from hull or in Spain he's really developed his game and is like a (here we go) an effective Marion harweood or Emily heskey!

I can't see Mertens coming here. I'd be surprised if he didn't end up at one of the clubs in the champions league. He's had a cracking year at PSV.

The Premier League's a really strong draw so provided that of the top 7 didn't come in for him, there's always a chance. Even if it were only for a year.

I'm actually looking forward to seeing who Lambert brings in. He seems to have a bit of imagination in the transfer market rather than just spending money on established dross like Hutton and Warnock.

I always thought he had the raw materials to develop into a decent player.

Lee Griffiths on loan from Wolves at Hibs is playing in Scottish Cup final today. Apparently pretty useful.

He's been on loan for a couple of seasons hasn't he? Bet he's not too keen to go back.

Multiple player award winner  nominated for Player of the Year and Young Player of the Year by PFA Scotland, winning the latter award. Griffiths was also included in the SPL Team of the Year and named player of the year in the Scottish Premier League Yearly Awards. The Scottish Gareth Bale - lets swap him for Barry Bannan..
Can watch cup final here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/22672166
Also Charlie Mulgrew and  Izaguirre  for Celtic could do a job

Wouldn't disagree with that, though I doubt Bannan would go to Wolves.
