Summer 2013: Villa Transfers, Speculation, Suggestions and Rumours

[Percy McCarthy]

This bloke looks so good I think we should bring out the orange dot to get him.

[Billy Walker]

I'm inclined to agree, Percy.  Putting aside Belhanda's abilities as a footballer, it's the kind of signing that would make people start to re-assess Villa (including our own fans).  Even if we don't bring him in, it's good to see how Lambert and the club are thinking.

Lambert will know who he wants on the budget we can afford and think he has done excellently so far. Hopefully, with the outgoings, he will be able to bring a few more in. I think some youngish lads will see the likes of Benteke and Weimann have had under Lambert and think they want a bit of that, allied to the great support the team got throughout the season as it was apparent we were trying to play football

Kuban Krasnodar are saying that Popov is not for sale.

I'd be surprised if this one did come off now, as if we bring in another attacking midfielder, I'd have thought it would probably be someone to go straight into the first team (hopefully Belhanda). Based on the pattern of last year's rumours, perhaps Popov was just another option for the same role as Tonev - Tonev being first choice, as the younger player with more potential to improve.

Just clicked n the Popov is not for sale link and my Malwarebytes wet into overdrive.

Here's a list of all the players released by Premier League clubs:

Anyone of interest? Maybe Gallas might give us the experience in defence we need for a year or two.

Ross Turnbull as backup keeper might not be the worst bit of business on a free.

any of the gks as a back up and john bostock to be given a chance

I guess if Pepe's on his way out as it seems every summer, then they'll need a solid replacement. Given might do them for a year or two.

A good start to summer business- one deal done and being linked with class players, sun shining , the sweet greatest hits on the ipad and cricket on the tv - have only one day off in 12 but enjoying it immensely - time for a lager as we await our next transfer

Cheers aftab. Everything is clearer now. ;)I was reading it back to front mate, sorry.

Dan most of the posts on H&V make more sense when read back to front!
