Transfer Speculation / Gossip

[JUAN PABLO]

I have seen an amusing screen print of a tweet from Ballague on VT where he was saying there was no way Xavi Alonso was leaving Real Madrid.

Not that I know anything about this signing, let alone the player.

Balague was still saying Falcao was signing for Man. United for 40m about an hour after everyone agreed it was a loan deal.

Would love Canales to come, he was superb a few years back but got a bad injury at Madrid.

Exactly the type we lack in midfield, would much prefer him to Cleverley.

Me too

I don't what's more boring,being a villa fan on transfer deadline day or listening to a Paul Lambert interview 😞

Canales is at a Adidas event in Madrid alongside Llorente etc so highly doubt we are anywhere near signing him

You never know, Kozak came from nowhere last season

The names we've been linked with aren't that inspiring (Canales sounds like a decent prospect, but I was living my life quite happily never having heard of him up until two hours ago), so to miss out on the Cleverleys of this world doesn't bother me, but we don't have anywhere near the squad depth to cope with the season when it gets properly intense. I don't want us to sign just anyone, but to sign nobody is an extremely puzzling and risky strategy.

Why do they keep saying 'what a day it's been on sky?'  It's been a Monday when one loan deal has been done that hasn't even been done yet.

I never wish ill on anyone, but if he fails his medical at Manure I will literally pee myself.

[pauliewalnuts]

I am increasingly starting to think we will sign nobody.

[walsall villain]

Sure looks that way
