Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[Percy McCarthy]

Think his mum gave birth in Brum and then moved up soon after. He grew up in Leeds I'm fairly sure.

I think it's even more fleeting than that. I'm sure I read that he was born when his family were just visiting friends or family in Brum.

[KRS]

Yeah that would be my only concern over him but not sure if he was kept out at Man City by team selection or by injury. Apparently he's played 17 games for Fiorentina this season (according to Wiki).

[olaftab]

I know he's a Brummie, but isn't he a Villa fan too? You would hope that counts for something if we are in for him but somehow I doubt it.

If you're Brummie you are automatically Villa unless some brain cells are missing.

According to the Man City fans I know Micah Richards is pretty much perma-crocked.

He's made 7 starts and 3 appearances off the bench for Fiorentina all season.

Good replacement for Vlaar then.

[warleyboy]

Although, he could be a decent player, would it be adding to the list of injury prone defence we currently have?
Not sure he is any better than a fit okore.

Suggestions in the media that TS may offload Gil this Summer? If so, I don't agree.....Carles has the ability to be a really top top player. Can't understand why he's not at least on the bench?, although I think he'll feature against Burnley.

Not what we need, especially as our other defenders have their injury problems as well.

That's what I heard too. His parents lived in Chapeltown in Leeds and that is where he grew up.

Clearly something has gone on between the pair.

Sometimes a manager just doesn't fancy a player.

Has he played a single minute under him or even made the bench ?

Yes Stoke. Came on vs Albion late.

[silhillvilla]

Of course, missed the Stoke game. Not a good team for a fairly small, lightweight midfielder to try and impress against.

Can someone confirm that Sky are reporting that Gil and Weimann have been transfer listed and are open for offers ( Weimann £5 m)

I heard that. Although nothing about cash.

Although, as it was just Jeff Stelling chattering on about things, so it's not as if this is exactly confirmation of anything.
