Summer 2013: Villa Transfers, Speculation, Suggestions and Rumours

Nothing to do with me, not this one.

I would imagine Bent / Holman / NZogbia / Bannan will be sold

Given / Hutton - will go on loans

Ireland - if rumours are correct they will agree a pay off for him.

It makes you realise how much rubbish we actually have.

Bit harsh to call Bent rubbish.

[danlanza]

He is far from rubbish. Still a top class striker. If he goes to Newcastle or Fulham he will eager to score against us i would think.

Indeed, worth a bet on him scoring too.

Not heard this bacuna rumour - where did it come from?

Maybe it's Bakula? Good at leaping for balls.

[jcsutv]

Too right Eastie.  Speaking of bets, are we still 1000/1 for the title? I saw that a couple of weeks ago in Hills and may have a bit each way. I know I am getting carried away but teams will be beating each other this year me thinks.

Apparently Everton have tried to gazump us on Okore.

With all these foreign players, are we seeing the silent work Karsa does in action?

I think so too. For me, this will be like an early 90s season, wide open.

Crikey things are looking up but an each way bet for the title ?

I'd be happy with top 8 and build on from there.

No chance.

I don't think it's right to say Bent, Given, Nzogbia are rubbish. But, we are most likely paying them too much for the roles they are playing at the club i.e. back up. For both the club and the players, it is best if they move on. I think Hutton will have a few suitors and a deal can be done to everyone's satisfaction.

Ireland is the problem one. On big money, he has had enough chances and I don't think there will be a stampede to get him. Having said that, there might be someone like Bruce or Holloway, who think they have the man management skills to 'revive' his career. But only if it makes financial sense. How many years are left on his contract?

I also saw a rumour this morning of Bannan to Palace. Holloway had him on loan with Blackpool the season they got promoted, so makes sense and is probably best for all involved. Although, it would copper fasten Palace as favourites to go down, in my opinion.

Bacuna matata. What a wonderful phrase.....
