I heard that a handful of Vikings  moored their  ship in Harwich on Thursday  last week and were making their way  in the general direction of the Midlands on foot.  Must be close now!

They'd be here by now. Only took my mate two days to walk to QPR. He set out Thursday morning and got there for a 3 o'clock Saturday kick-off.

Ah yes, but modern roads for your mate versus no roads for the vikings.

Longboats up the Grand Union?

Or even worse .... tugboats up yer Dudley tunnel :)

Trust you.

According to the local press in northern Jutland, he flew in this morning to finalise the contract. 

Fee reported at £1.2M plus add-ons. 
Expected to be announced either tomorrow or Wednesday.

AaB er blevet enige med Aston Villa om en overgangssum på 1.200.000 pund samt en række underklausuler.

Både Nicklas Helenius’ og denne agent Mads Bach Lund har haft deres mobiler slukkede hertil formiddag. Definitivt på grund af flyveturen, men nu er de to på plads i Englands næststørste by, hvor Aston Villa regerer.

NORDJYSKE erfarer dog også, at Helenius tidligst vil blive præsenteret som Aston Villa-spiller i morgen og måske endda først onsdag, da en række formaliteter skal falde på plads.


Translate from: Norwegian
Heartland has reached agreement with Aston Villa for a transfer fee of 1.2 million pounds and a number of sub-clauses.

Both Nicklas Helenius' and this agent Mads Bach Lund have had their mobiles switched off this morning. Definitely because of the flight, but now the two in place in England's second largest city, where Aston Villa reigns. Like that bit!

NORDJYSKE learns, however, that Helenius earlier will be presented as Aston Villa player tomorrow and maybe even until Wednesday, when a number of formalities to fall into place.

Plus he's raping and pillaging his way down here too. That takes time out of your day.
None of that required now. He can leave all that for Premier League  defences next season.

I think you're all missing the point here a bit, if they landed in Harwich they've probably come up through Cambridge, to Peterborough and across through Leicester and Coventry...

So has anyone checked the Peterborough outer ring road, you could get stuck on that for days if you're not careful.

If they went via manningtree, they could easily have died of boredom and despair

To be honest, if they were forced to experience the A14, maybe we'd deserve all that rape and pillage.

1.2m looks a steal to me.

I imagine he'll slowly be eased in and will only start if Benteke is unavailable (I mean when injured and not elsewhere) If the worst happens and Benteke isn't here we'll sign another forward.

Clearly Lambert has looked at it and seen Gabby is much better cutting in from outwide nowadays than right through the middle and Bowery isn't of the required quality to be starting premier league games so with Bent off we need another leader of the line in the squad.

If Helenius can play as a wide striker too, and he looks like he has the pace and ball control to do so, then we have three players in Tonev, N'Zogbia and Helenius who can come in for either Andi or Gabby when the situation dictates, with hopefully not a serious drop off in quality.

I reckon he'll be a bench warmer for most of next season. Grant Holt spent a fair bit of time on the bench under Lambert as well i think.

I reckon he'll be the new sensation in town, especially if Benteke leaves

Have they reached Mercia yet?

Hmm, not sure about that.

Helenius has been playing in the Danish league. I think he's going to have a lot of work to do before he can be seen in that light.

Yes I agree, I think he's one for the future - doubt he will have much of an impact next season.
