The January 2015 Transfer Rumour Thread

[Villa in Denmark]

I was all excited this morning when the gossip pages over here were reporting that Lambert was linked with a move to relegation candidates (having completely forgotten that Rickie existed.)

Imagine my disappointment when we were the relegation candidates and it was Rickie we were being linked with.

However as it was Ekstra Bladet I instantly dismissed it as utter gonads.

Sorry if it's already been mentioned, but The Guardian have linked us to Lambert (R).

Maybe we'll end up with not one, not none, but two Lamberts.

Just seven years after I was hoping he move to Villa

Come May, there's a good chance it'll be Aston Villa (R)

He's not shit and he's not hopeless. That implies he has an impact, albeit a negative one. He doesn't. He just simply exists.

He doesn't tackle, he doesn't create, he doesn't take a man on, he doesn't shoot. He is just there, not doing anything beyond breathing.

I agree Ads. I was saying yesterday that I still don't know what he is - passer / terrier / dribbler / enforcer. I just don't know his role. To me he is just a poorer version of Westwood (who is a good passer, albeit usually of the 2 touch control and pass variety)

Tom Cleverly has surpassed Stephen Ireland as the most despised villa player in my opinion . He's fucking useless and I want him gone .

You have to notice someone to despise them. In Big Brother terms he is less Nasty Nick and more the boring bloke who's name will mean nothing to you this time next year.

He's not despised. He's just not very good. He's done nothing against the club or fans other than he hasn't performed. You can say that for a lot of our players.

Absolutely pathetic that we inquired to take Rickie Lambert on loan. Lambert has no rhyme or reason as to why he picks players. He can't use them properly anyway.

[JUAN PABLO]

Tim Cahill?

[Hoppo]

You don't have to read between the lines to realize he isn't happy and doesn't want to be here.
Surely an agreement can be found and send him back. I agree with Ads he just exsists. Very disappointing.

[Damo70]

Tim Cahill?

Word on the street* is he has left New York Lucozade and is coming back to the Premier League.

I would have been happy with Lambert short term, he's a goalscorer

[Damo70]

Unfortunately it has just been announced that Terry Gornell has joined Accrington so we will have to look elsewhere if we want a striker.

[Chris Jameson]

Where's Grant Holt these days?

[mr underhill]

in a better place than VP that's for sure

we have two domestic loans already. We're not allowed any more.
