Transfer Speculation / Gossip

[silhillvilla]

Joe Cole. He could be next in.

He's a Redknapp signing for QPR if ever there was one. Four year contract, £100 k a week.

What ? Are QPR reigning the spending in a bit then ?

[claret and blue blood]

If we do sign Hoolahan at least we know he can score at the Holte End

[Hoppo]

Joe Cole 1/9 on Skybet to be a Villa player.

[Monty]

Wow. I suppose that wouldn't be a terrible gamble.

[David_Nab]

Cole on his own , might be worth a gamble..but add in Sendaros , rumours of Bendtner and Bent/Hutton now being considered to play and it's not  exactly inspiring stuff.

[UK Redsox]

If Cole signs then that might mean Norwich still haven't calmed down enough to sell Hotlips to Villa

[mr woo]

Yeah, uninspiring is the word alright, but then again, if we are operating in the freebies market, you could argue you've improved the squad for sweet F.A.

Bendtner > Helenius?  Probably. Based on experience alone.

Pilkington > Albrighton? Possibly. Although I thought Marc was excellent when he came back in so time will tell.

Joe Cole > Wes Hoolahan? You'd have to say yes surely. Both a similar age don't forget, and Cole not only played more games last year but has a far more impressive career pedigree.

[RussellC]

Did Cole actually do anything of note last season?!

[PaulWinch again]

Ashley Young back would be good.

[exigo]

Ashley Young back would be good.

Come on now, we're playing Football Manager 2004. Václav Drobný is no longer with us, so it must be Mathieu Berson.

[Ozzjim]

Ashley Young back would be good.

2 more players in the right positions (holding midfielder and maybe a winger) and mid table could be achievable.

Maybe, if those 2 players are Yaya Toure and Arjen Robben.

Really?

[WALTERS WARRIORS]

Joe Cole has had a medical and will announce his 2 yr contract tomorrow !!!!

Well if we only sign those 4 players we will still have a shocking squad. Who will our full backs be all season? Two strikers returning from bad long terms injuries plus a couple who managed what, 4 goals all season last year? I am also of the opinion that our manager is absolutely awful, which doesn't help.
