Summer 2013: Villa Transfers, Speculation, Suggestions and Rumours

[Toronto Villa]

On the downside you can't really get that excited by our targets because most of us have no real knowledge of them

Actually for me quite the opposite. I'm excited just by no longer being linked to the traditional fodder that we've been subjected to over the years. PL players who have failed elsewhere. This is sort of what I would have expected a Houllier transfer window to look like. Players that are somewhat of an unknown quantity mixed in with some rising stars in France or Belgium etc. For me the unknown is the best bit because it makes you dig into what they have achieved and possibly capable of. I don't need a second opinion or YouTube to figure out that Jenas or Dyer or some other bollocks has been English player is "on our radar" as the tabloids might put it.

Haha! All the hype and the first signing is a trainee from Torquay. I love Villa, I really do. Good luck to the kid.

Lee Sharpe started as a trainee at Torquay. And he turned out pretty well, at least until he became more interested in minge and cocaine.

Am I allowed to say that? Dear me

To be fair, who isn't interested in these things?

[damon loves JT]

I don't earn enough to take an interest in cocaine. And I already have a terrible personality, so the side-effects would be kind of wasted on me.

Plus you have the 'talking nonsense at 100mph' covered already, of course

When I worked in my friends CD shop in Harrogate he used to come in with his girlfriend quite often boredom shopping. We used to manage to sell some right old shit to him, I guessed his house on 'Through The Keyhole' from the pile of obviously unplayed CD's that I had sold him that were on a table.

Always carried huge piles of cash. Just saying.

Is that when he was waddling about at Leeds?

Express and Star article..

"The French side have slapped a £12million price tag on the midfielder who has told Villa he is ready to snub Inter Milan, AC Milan, Atletico Madrid and Galatasaray to sign for them."

Unless I misread the original quote that's not what was said by Belhanda at all.

Don't get excited on you tube footage, don't forget KEA looked good in youtube

So did benteke though. Surely people are getting slightly excited because he's highly thought of and is also being linked with some top clubs, along with looking decent in the clips they have seen?

Oh come on Damon it's not that expensive. You can afford the odd toot at the weekend surely?

Not everyone hoovers up as much as Daniella Westbrook y'know.

He could certainly hit a ball.

I always wonder what the club could have achieved if he hasn't broke his leg.
