Carles Gil - loaned out again

[boboonthecorner]

We're a deserved favourite for the drop

We're not a favourite for relegation at all. Six teams have shorter odds than us and West Brom's odds are the same as ours.

If you don't score you don't stay up. We're on target for the worst ever scoring record in a season so I think the odds will drop the same speed as we will after the next three games.

Quite possibly. But at the moment we're not one of the favourites to go down.

Leicester are almost certain to be relegated, but have managed to convince a £10 million player to join them. It happens.

Who have they signed???

[SirSteveUK]

Some young Croat CF - barely an international - so may need to bribe to get a work permit

[eamonn]

Fittingly his agent is our very own former young Croat, Bosko Balaban, son of Bob.

So is Carles here and if so when is he going to have a medical?

[cdbearsfan]

Can we make the medical a bit more thorough than we usually do, while we're at it?

Any stretched XL villa shirts about on instagram yet

Press conference confirmed for tomorrow afternoon. We rarely have them to unveil new signings unless it's a biggie...was Bent the last one?

Wishful thinking but they need positive PR so probably just Carles unless it is a double signing.

a couple of nice highlights of Gil here.

Lets hope Gil is a better player than his agent was !

Something fishy going on here

[claret and blue blood]

Is this the fin for Lambert?

[TheMalandro]

I feel a little sorry for this lad now. He's coming into a shit storm

There is an apparent hitch over agents fees and there will be no press conference today.

Hopefully he will still sign, but its not looking likely he will be available for the Liverpool game. I am sure Lambert can fill the creative gap though with plenty of defensive holding players.

where did you hear that? Maybe the hitch is Lambert getting the boot!
