Summer 2013: Villa Transfers, Speculation, Suggestions and Rumours

[Toronto Villa]

I would be excited to see us get Will Hughes, he would be worth the extra on a structured deal from what I have seen.

All good stuff.

Hope Tone signs ;-)

If we can get Hughes for sensible money I'd be keen. The worry would be forking out 10 million (or close to), only for him to turn out like Giles Barnes II

If we go for players like that it might be heavily backloaded. He's only 17 or 18, I think so maybe 3 or 4 up front and rest in payments based on achievement of hitting certain goals.

Natalie sawyer, Kirsty Gallagher , millie clode and sarah Jane mee mmmmmmmm

Sarah Jane Mee? I don't get it surely we are Villa and we have higher standards?

I know nothing of Will Hughes so just YouTube'd him.
For anyone else who doesn't know about him...Chesney from Corrie!

Millie Clode, Olivia Godfrey and Charlotte Jackson in that order. Although if I was in a foursome with them it would have to be in reverse order as it would otherwise be all over for me as soon as Millie got her kit off. My friend's daughter currently works for Chelsea TV and hopefully will hit the big time soon. If her mother (my friend) is anything to go by she will be one to er...watch.

Saturday nights  they have  old biddy clare tomlinson on who looks so out of place - she must be at least 40 !

Old biddy, bollocks.

You will always need a competent journalist to counter the barbie doll airheads that pollute Sky Sports News.

In any case, Clare has that special cougar quality.

Kendrick tweeted this link to his latest piece-

The revolving door at Villa will be spinning this summer with boss Paul Lambert keen to make around six signings and move out at least a similar number.

Lambert is ready to overhaul his squad for the second successive close-season as he continues to stamp his imprint on the club.

Villa have expressed their interest in Aleksandar Tonev and are awaiting developments about their move for the 23-year-old Bulgarian winger.

Celtic and Werder Bremen are also in for the Lech Posnan player but Villa remain relaxed and will not be dragged into a bidding war.

Lambert could bid farewell to half-a-dozen players with Richard Dunne, Eric Lichaj, Andy Marshall and loanee Simon Dawkins already released and others told they can leave. Darren Bent and Shay Given are looking for new clubs, while Stephen Ireland will discuss the terms of his likely exit and Alan Hutton’s future is still to be resolved.

There are also question marks over Brett Holman and Barry Bannan after their first-team opportunities became limited, while rookie defender Derrick Williams is keeping his options open. If there is a mass exodus Lambert will be looking to recruit replacements, albeit in keeping with Villa’s prudent wage policy.

Villa recruited eight players last summer with Ron Vlaar, Karim El Ahmadi, Christian Benteke, Ashley Westwood, Matt Lowton, Joe Bennett, Jordan Bowery and Holman arriving, while Yacouba Sylla joined in January and Dawkins came in on loan.

Bannan to Swansea is it? Lovely...

Bannan to Swansea is it? Lovely...

He'd be a good fit there, but I still think there's a future for him here.

Totally disagree Tom, think he would be out of his depth  whether playing for villa or swansea.

He's done a lot of wrong, but at times he's shown there's a good player in there, and I'm convinced that with the right attitude he could be a very good player. I could easily be wrong, but I've always rated him and still do - even if he can be one of the most infuriating footballers to watch.

[WALTERS WARRIORS]

With Bannan because of his lack of physical and aerial power he has to be an exceptional player on the ball with a commited atitude. I dont think he is that player. His actions off the pitch i think will be why PL will move him on ..........

[villa kicks]

Will nzog go now we are signing this tonev character- imagine him and holmans days could be number. Marc albrighton to stay on, stay fit and develop. It would be good to have tonev and albrighton as attacking wide options. Also linked with a bulgar striker who plays in Russia. Popev.

I wouldn't stir Bryan Robson's custard for all the money in the world.

Better suited to a continental league IMO. Preferably Spain.
