Summer 2013: Villa Transfers, Speculation, Suggestions and Rumours

[Olneythelonely]

Naughton would be first choice at a lot of PL clubs, so I think that would be a non-starter. I personally don't think Lambert would be interested in any sort of swap. Neither would I.

Danny Rose is a very promising player.

If Spurs were to offer us any of their dross, it'd be players they want to see the back of, not promising young ones.

Shay given to Doncaster being mooted on twitter

My God, the last few pages on here are fucking depressing.

Especially if you're Shay Given.

I am willing to bet that Lambert doesnt go with a makeweight.  He doesnt sign players from other premierleague clubs, so he certainly wont want one that is now feeling all sad because he got dumped for a player going the other way, so i dont find the thread depressing as it aint happening.  Im not an ITK, im just basing on the facts that lambert has shown here and at norwich

However, as Pauliewalnuts wrote, id be depressed if i was Given, that comment made me really laugh

[SamTheMouse]

Unless Lambert had targeted a specific Tottingham player before all this, any part exchange deal would involve us basically doing a favour to the cockney twats.

I really don't want to hear anything about swaps, and god forbid loans. We're not fooking Watford.

Spurs can go and get stretched.

Tottenham do a good impression of being a big club, but all this mucking around with player swaps and petty staged offers cannot mask the fact that they're only a poor March away from being as good as the mid-table Championship side.

Lets see how they get on when Bale is playing for a more famous team in white.

To be honest - the words Spurs and dross do seem to hang well together - no offence intended of course - given that they are a big club - and we can only dream of having an honours list like theirs.

I assume that is sarcasm

Leeds?

It's all got a bit tired and emotional over on the Christian Benteke thread - and this one has turned into a which Tottingam reject would you prefer poll - so let's get some speculation going - not a rumour - a suggestion - seen the name mentioned by others a few times

Let's fantasise about - Alfreš Finnbogason - who is an Icelandic footballer who plays as a forward for SC Heerenveen.

Some more

Yes please Mr Lambert

[E I Adio]

It would be nice to have someone in the lineup called Alf.

[paul_e]

Looks a good poacher, the worry would be whether he has the all round game to make it in a better league, poachers from Holland don't do well in the premier league generally.

Robin Van Persie was alright  I suppose.  That Ruud Van Nistelroy had his moments. Ruud Gullitt too. Though to be fair I always preferred Dennis Bergkamp - who was of course - not a patch on Patrick Kluivert or indeed Marco Van Basten - and none of them ever matched Johann Cryuff - but I take your point.
