much happier with loan, Keane will make him sign if he's any good

Keano is a dab hand with a car battery.

What a strange saga this one is, but I have always, always said how much I rated him. Always. Top, top, top player.

Assuming this goes through, who's making way for him at anfield ? The zog ?

Probably, I wonder if Sanchez will also get a start.

He's basically pulled one bird, then deffed her off because he thinks he's in with one he fancies more, and then when she goes home with someone else he's realised he's without a ride so he raced out and caught the first bird as she's about to jump in the taxi.
Thanks Lee that makes sense! (and memories come flooding back)

He's an upgrade on Westwood for sure. A midfield of Delph and Cleverely with Sanchez sitting behind isn't bad.

Agreed, it would be pretty good. Now if we could actually get Vlaar and Delph to sign contracts that'd be good.

Daily Mail has some details.

Villa were granted an extension by the Premier League until 1am to complete a loan move but the paperwork was not submitted until 1.15am.

Sorry but rules are rules. We'd be furious if another team was allowed to get away with breaking the rules.

Its whether the breach is considered trivial or not. I think this will be allowed.

I hope he scores a winning goal, while two yards off side [that isn't given] with his hand, in the fourth minute of only three minutes added on at the Hawthorns now.

You'd have thought so, we all of a sudden have options .

Why did we get a two hour extension over everyone else in the firstplace?

like another poster said though, it benefits Man U, so never really in question, was it?

Apparently this has been pushed up to Premier League board level for approval. How often does the board meet? Because I can't see them calling a meeting just to discuss this.

I think if a deal is agreed in principal between two clubs time is given to wrap up the paperwork.  It applies to everyone.

Am I the only person to think this guy is an oderous little prick? Surely wanting to play for the club is on a par with ability? He didnt and so he shouldnt. Maybe with him in the first team we may finish 13th instead of 15th. Big f'ing wow. Id rather support a team consisting of players I respect

He was lucky to get a second chance with the ugly fat bird (Villa) because at one point it looked as if he'd be returning home in the taxi to his mother's house (Man United) where he'd have to play with himself until January.

Anyway, as long as he scores, the greedy, money-grasping bastard.

not as confident now, extension on their extension? Bit of a piss take even if it is just 15 mins.
Should have got it in order.

The Mirror are reporting a decision will be made this afternoon for what that's worth.
