Summer 2013: Villa Transfers, Speculation, Suggestions and Rumours

[DrGonzo]

Surely somebody must want some of this lovely shit we have for sale....please?

Let's send 'em on a free, all-expenses-paid luxury cruise around the horn of Africa. In a boat with huge dollar signs painted on the side and a big white flag on the back. Then, when they get kidnapped by pirates, claim on the insurance.

We'll just have to hope the Pirates still remember Ireland's one good season at City, otherwise they probably won't bother.

We would probably end up paying a ransom for the pirates to take them.

No probs, we could offer them a third of Ireland's remaining contract.

Bearing in mind that PL was quoted as saying  last night that , should the right opportunity come along , he would go back into the Transfer Market prior to deadline day , this mornings rumour may , as they say ´have some legs ´ :

Nurnberger Nachrichten: Aston Villa have not given up on signing Nurnberg Japan international, Hiroshi Kiyotake
Should Aston Villa go back to Nurnberg with a significantly improved offer for Kiyotake then there is every chance they will be able to bring the player to the club and it is likely Lambert would go with a two-pronged attack on either flank with Kiyotake on the left and N'Zogbia on the right - although there would likely to be numerous rotations. 

Kiyotake is contracted to Nurnberg until the summer of 2015 which means Aston Villa would have to present a significantly impressive offer to persuade Nurnberg to sell and it remains to be seen if Villa will go back in for Kiyotake or will look towards cheaper or more easily available alternatives

Not sure how much credence this has  ( especially with the bit about the two pronged attack including N´Zogbia is concerned   )   but I like what I,ve seen of this guy , admittedly limited though that may be ........................Godzvilla !

Well, they've certainly covered their arse with that report (whoever they are).
And is Charles really going to be a fixture in the Villa side? - I think not.

So what's going on with Shergar, shrek and apeman transfer sagas?

The Villa link is that as soon as selling clubs have money they will come for Benteke!

This isn't aimed at you but, who gives a shit.  You couldn't find three better examples of how football has gone up it's own arse that those three football transfer sagas.

Nosuch thing as a free willy. You have to charge the female at least one half of cider and black.

But have to pay a £2 'handling fee'

Tedious isn't it? Any bit of 'news' or update from Sky sources or 2-bit journo's is splashed all over the place. They are struggling to fill air-time, column inches with anything this time of year.

I see the Express has us linked to a 10mil bid for this Japanese midfielder today. I dont know anything about him but if he is as good as Nakata was a few years ago it might be worth following up.

And it's been turned down?

[Holte End Stylist]

I can't believe we'd offer 10 mil to be honest

I've only seen him fleetingly, but he looked excellent and is the sort of player we need.

with graham burkey burke going on loan then i think another player could come in.  though burkey deaprture is only on a temp arrangement- hence the word loan - doesn t affect the 25 man player roster .. ooh yeah !
