And quite frankly it's harder to put together a sexy YouTube compilation of a DM

Au contraire.


which DM are you referring to in that clip?

The one who played in that position for Ireland for a long time.

This tranfer needs to go through soon as I can get back to work!

my productivity levels in the office have hit a low, not seen since 2012 August transfer deadline day.

Nothing shows me the world is moving too fast these days than the fact that this sentence is now considered correct grammar.

Ki and Sanchez would be a huge upgrade on Westwood and El Ahmadi.

€4.4m apparently. Blimey, we're splashing it around now.

---------------Guzan----------------

Hutton---Okore----Vlaar---Cissokho

--------------Sanchez--------------

----Westwood---------Delph-------

N'Zogbia-----------------Richardson

-------------Benteke----------------


That looks a lot better than last season.

This is the first potential line up I have seen that makes me think mid table could be a possibility.

I think a word of thanks is in order for Aitor Garcia who went to the trouble of translating his own blog from the Elche fans web page for the benefit of all of us Villa fans. Gracias, Aitor.

From what I've seen he actually doesn't look very good. Would of preferred Ki but if that's what we end up with then I'll still support him.

but other than YouTube what have you or any of us really seen in depth? And quite frankly it's harder to put together a sexy YouTube compilation of a DM than a forward where you just show a number of goals. Even Harewood or Heskey can be made to look ace on YouTube. How do you make positional discipline cool in a 90 second clip from a camera phone? Sanchez has a solid reputation in the game, played well at the WC for Columbia and plays in La Liga. Is he the best thing ever? Probably not. Is he good enough for the PL and will he improve us? I think so but we'll have to wait and see.

Totally agree with this, if it happens?
