Can you smell what The Rock is cooking?

A feast of football!!

I'll get my coat.

Anyway, I've met Gregg Evans and told him the score. Never mind all that free and fearless reporting nonsense, his first priority is to make sure we always know who's going to be the new manager in time to get a decent bet on.

someone on VT reckons the deal has stalled and no medical imminent

Someone else on VT says medical completed and signing should be completed in the morning!

Basically, we all know bugger all.

That Daily Mirror reckons Villa are first in the queue for Serge Gnabry in a loan deal...

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/arsenals-serge-gnabry-transfer-target-4046871?

Aston Villa have joined the list of clubs wanting to take Arsenal prospect Serge Gnabry on loan.

The Villans' boss Paul Lambert is keen, along with Southampton, Newcastle, Crystal Palace and Sunderland to sign the Gunners' 19-year-old wide-man.

Arsenal are keen to send Gnabry out to a Premier League club to help his development as they see him very much in part of their long-term plans.

Gnabry has been reluctant to leave the Emirates, despite the fierce competition for places in wide areas in Arsene Wenger's squad this season.

Mirror linking us with interest in taking Gnabry from Arsenal on loan

Does anyone know if The Mirror is linking us with Gnabry?

Apparently, someone called Trent on VT reckons the medical was this evening and he'll sign in the morning.

Sanchez, that is.

Not Gnabry. Surprised we haven't been linked with him in the media.

I still reckon we might play a 3-5-2 at home and switch to the 4-3-3 away. 

I still don't understand why teams play differently away from home.

Play the formation that suits the team best. Why the feck does it matter where the game is being played ?

Have to disagree slightly, as the dynamics of playing at home are different.  The 4-3-3 has worked OK away from home for Lambert, as the home team tend to push on leaving space in which we can counter attack.  This is not the case at home (except for maybe against the top sides which would explain wins against the likes of Chelsea and Man City) and we have really struggled to break sides down at home during Lambert's time at the club.  That's why I think we should keep the 4-3-3 away from home, but look to change the formation for home games.

I heard that one of the papers had us linked with him, a big one.

Can i just ask those involved in the punathons on this site ... Is it an old person thing? Is this what I've got to look forward to in a few decades? I'm just guessing you're all old. No offence. Take offence, you won't catch me on your zimmers you old bastards! 😝

Away from puns, Gnabry would be an excellent loan. Looked really good when I have seen him, and would give us pace alternative to Gabby.

You should be careful who you insult. Some of us have motorised zimmers.

Stopping at the Villa could prove to be a nice branch line in his career, where he'll be able to express himself somewhat more.

TrentVilla is often bang on for good info. I trust this will all get wrapped up soon. Third party ownership is absolutely ridiculous.

Buns? Who has got these buns? I like a nice bit of currant bun, when I can find my teeth.  Like the idea of Gnabry. His name is an anagram of Bryan G. However I hear he has expressed a preference for the Orient.

It doesn't actually say we're first in the queue, merely we've joined it, we could be right at the back.  Would love to get him in though.
