Summer 2015 - Transfer Rumours, Speculation & Suggestions

[Steve67]

I'd like to see what Kozak can do. Good cover and would hopefully build up his fitness and confidence with first team games.

[Clark W Griswold]

Gabby made him look saft

Well he's always looked a bit saft but not necessarily in football terms. I wouldn't mind him, i think he largely played well for them, just the injury record which would be a concern.

[Goldie.7]

If it's a choice between having Baker or Lescott in our match day squad i'll go with Lescott everyday of the week.

He might of been crap against us but throughout the other games he did quite well and the stripey filth got some good results.

W13 L15 D9 all comps.

They only had two heavy defeats in total with him in there.

With a better defender along side i.e Clark/Okore and looking like Richards, 5 of those loses could easily be a few more wins and draws for us instead.

[Matt Collins]

Yeah but would you pay £50k per week for lescott?

Anyways he's not coming is he

How many more do you think there will be?

We've only really just spent the Benteke & Delph money (although prob a lot more on wages).  Do you think there's funds for a few more?

A right back and perhaps another attacking mid (depending on whether Gil is genuinely back in with a sniff, and whether Zogbia's days are numbered) and keeper.
I think we'll get 2-3 more in.
I wonder if Adebayor is still on the cards? If he were to come in as a squad player, it would be a hell of an outlay because I can't see him playing every week.

You say that, but Delph, Bent, Given, Benteke, Weimann, Lowton, Helenius, Vlaar, Sylla...

Wouldn't surprise me if we were much more than even with last season.

Which is pretty incredible given how good the squad now looks.

[chrisw1]

I'm pretty happy with Hutton, Bacuna and Richards as cover to be honest. 

Obviously if we can get real quality in then that would be great, but I'm not too concerned.

I'm very hopeful about Gil and am keen for him to be given a real chance.

I'm a little concerned about cover at center half.  A serious injury to Clark or Richards may leave us a bit short.  But with Okore to come in,  if Senderos is fit again that would help - I thought he did very well before injury last year.

we're still keen on signing Praet  apparently.  when will the Villa revolution end !

That's icing on the cake stuff.

Hindsight is ace isn't it

What I absolutely love is that not one of these players were players the press had any knowledge of us signing or even wanting to sign until the very end. It was all very easy ex-Spurs links and English player links and we've gone so against the grain it's literally astonishing. I'm loving it.

[silhillvilla]

Think richards & Lescott would make a terrific pairing
