Transfer Speculation / Gossip

[brontebilly]

Would be very happy with Ki. He is a massive improvement to what we have ......

an upgrade on Westwood for sure but tends to go missing a bit when things get heated in midfield. Didnt work for him at two clubs at our level, hopefully third time lucky with us

After the scum bag took the dive to win them a penalty, I am surprised that any Villa Fan with a memory larger than a goldfish could stomach him wearing the shirt again.

Fully agree. Scum and cheat. He is dead to me.

He's a busted flush & also on £100k / week, so the chances of him coming back to us are somewhat less than zero. He'd be ideal for Newcastle.

He was rated by the Sunderland fans in fairness.


Interesting that some guy on Twitter had this quite early on Friday morning. Can't remember who though.

If we do sign Ki, would that be the first transfer that Lambert has directly signed from a Premier League club?

[DeKuip]

I just remembered cattermole played quite a lot last year. So Ki must be capable of playing wider / more advanced, or as a pair.

know others don't like him bit I could see ki and Westwood working well together and getting a hold on games

Hopefully we'll see some more passing this season

Should have gone for Ki's World Cup team mate Ho to pair up with Westwood!

Or signed Rita Ora to pair up with KEA.

Certainly the first since Joe Cole anyway!

We didn't sign him from anybody, he was a free agent and we offered him a contract.

[BoskoDjembaSalifou]

Ki is a nice footballer. We'd still need a defensive midfielder though, so I hope we have enough for both.

[ozzjim]

Cole had been released, so strictly not. And Richardson had been relegated.

Bertrand was from Chelsea albeit a loan though.

Cole had been released by West Ham I believe.

Now that would be a key signing.

[ozzjim]

If Yueng followed I might be confident of staying up!

[Olneythelonely]

Ki would be a very good signing. Which is exactly why I can't see it happening. Glass completely empty.
