Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[Holte L2]

Herd's fucking cack, if he is offered a contract it's a sign we won't be spending jack again.

This! He'd definitely get into my worst Villa Eleven.

According to Nursey, Albion want Ciaran Clark.

Stop laughing at the back there.

Silly season has truly started.

Benteke to Spurs for the lowest rumoured offer so far.
Clark to the 1980's for a couple of million no doubt.
When will we get the first £7m offer to ''test Villa's resolve'' for Delph reported?

Herd's fucking cack, if he is offered a contract it's a sign we won't be spending jack again.

Herd is an ideal squad player to have as the 7th man on the bench or to have on hand if someone is injured in the warm up.

His versatility should lead to a long career, albeit probably without actually playing many games

Bent & Stevens released, undecided on Herd and Vlaar offered new contact: http://bit.ly/1IpiUWt

I can't believe that Enda Stevens had more Villa first team appearances than the legendary Najwan Ghrayib

Given the amount of players we need to bring in, offering Vlaar a deal isn't the wost idea. As useless as he is at times, he does have his moments of clarity.

[AlexAlexCropley]

I'd offer Vlaar a pay-per-play contract
He'd probably owe us at the end.

With regards to Herd, the thing that surprises me with this, is that supposedly we have told other players they are to find new clubs and if not they will be in the all new Bomb Squad

But Herd has not played a game for us all season is told if he trains well and proves fitness etc... he may be offered a new deal?

I remember reading that Sherwood has said that we have to get players out before we bring new players in (we cant keep adding to the payroll)

Players don't normally get dumped when unfit or 'off work'. Isn't that generally the case with employment? They will get him fit then release him.

I see Bennett, Herdy and Gards as he's known given opportunities so that's 3 players there. All will be useful. The cost and extra cost on these are minimal compared to bringing in expensive transfers. The lower range free range market , something Liverpool taking advantage of and some established premier league players is where Sherwood must look. I. Can see a couple of loan signings come in from the top 5 or 6 clubs  and soome moneys spent. Depending on ttransfer funds raised and relase of money. A playing squad of 28 or so will be okay.

[SashasGrandad]

Clark would be mad to go to the Albion, that is unless they want to pay him silly money because they are going to win the league you know

They want him to play left back

They've assigned a dedicated assessor to Herd and Gardner. He's the Herdy-Gardy man.

Make it stop please

I'm hoping sherwood just thinks he's never seen herd and will thus take a look

I imagine he'll then be swiftly on his bike. It's absolutely incredible he's still at a premier league club. He's 25 and has had one good game

If we are keeping him then I'm officially depressed

[mr underhill]

let's all leave off the negative vibes re footyskillz ; at the mo he's brightening the drab spaces and heaven knows, I for one, would be miserable now without his enthusiastic epistles.
