Transfer Speculation / Gossip

In their reserve game last week he looked pretty in shape.

If lambert & Keane have any brains we will make a move for James Morison early tomorrow .

Oh dear, is that the best you can do?

I would like to see Ben Arfa playing for Villa.

You'd have no problem seeing him for sure...

I reckon you would get McMananman for about 6 from Wigan, but he looks no more than another Albrighton to me. Rather have the guile of Maloney for a million from Wigwam.

Don't know about that.  He showed some real promise in games when they were in the Premier League and was superb in the cup final win against Man City.  Didn't really see enough of Wigan to tell whether those were just isolated good performances.  I'm surprised noone has been in for him though.

From space, let alone the Holte End.

Looking at him in their reserve game last week, if you can see him from space you would see me from another galaxy! Judgemental, and I assume, skinny super fit gits!

From Fanatix

Villans keen on young American winger.

Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert is set to launch a move to bring young Bayern Munich starlet Julian Green to the club on a season long loan.

Fanatix understands that the Villa manager is keen to utilise his contacts in the Bundesliga to add a creative spark at the Midlands club after scoring just once in their three games this season.

Villa are said to be close to agreeing a deal to sign Tom Cleverley but the club are also keen to bring in another winger before monday’s transfer deadline.

Green has yet to make an appearance for Bayern’s first team, but his form for their second side were enough to earn him a call up to the USA national side for this summer’s World Cup.


He created a buzz around himself whilst in Brazil when he scored against Belgium in the second round with a goal reminiscent of former Villa star David Platt, who did the same thing at Italia 90.

Bayern are believed to be keen on allowing him out on loan for the season before putting him in contention for a starting spot next term, and Villa would be able to offer him regular first team football at a competitive level.

Talk is he is going to Hamburg. But could be a decent move if not.

Sounds like his Dad has confirmed the Hamburg move, oh well.

[brian green]

His name made him catch my eye and I think he has had accelerated promotion in Munich to strengthen their American marketing potential. Like Manure, when they could afford the luxury, cosseted Asian players.

Why isn't the transfer window closing today, I always thought it shut at the end of August?

I thought it did too?

[N'ZMAV]

the Kagawa talk is nonsense. Not a chance we'd get him.

[PeterWithe]

Dortmund dont pay big wages, depends on what he wants, if its money then a lot of English teams will be more attractive than German ones.
