[brian green]

That is not remotely funny Dave.

Jerome ?

David.

Nah! Think he'd favour a move to West Ham!

[paul_e]

Jerome ?

David.

Nah, he doesn't play where we need and he's not good for the strikers.

The situation with Adama Traore is Villa are unwilling to meet his buyout clause which  according to the E&S is £12mil. So he is likely to go to Stoke if they can meet this figure.Like most of you I think he looks the real deal on You Tube. If he does go to Stoke I would be very dissapointed.

Same here. He looks one of the most exciting and talented young player I've seen since an 18 year old lad at Sporting called Cristiano.
To lose out to team like Stoke would be tragic.

Tha number 10 has been left unallotted for a reason.

Cameron.

Tha number 10 has been left unallotted for a reason.

I suspect you're right, but being a Villa fan and after the last 5 years I just worry we will rush in to something and buy someone like Borini, over priced, under talented to fill the gap. Hopefully, judging by what Sherwood has said about scouting etc they will have had a list of fall backs. Let's hope one of them is good, because we deserve a bit of excitement this season and not another long plod with few goals and Gabby stinking the place out weekly.

The Birmingham Mail are the latest media outlet to report West Brom are hoping to smash their transfer record and sign striker Salomon Rondon from Zenit St Petersburg.

The 25-year-old, rated at around £15m has scored 28 goals in 57 games for the Russian outfit and is thought to have a medical booked in with the Baggies.

Callum Robinson has joined Bristol City on loan for the season

Good stuff, see how he gets on in the Championship.

Good news, I quite like them, got a lot of friends in Bristol, nice lot who generally like the Villa too

Same here, one of my best friends here is a City fan so always look for their results. He has a season ticket even though he lives 4,500 miles away frrom Ashton Gate. Apparently we haven't played them since 1982 in the FA Cup.

I feel sick now.

Bristol City was my first ever game. 1976 won 3-1

[Salsa Party Animal]

I wouldn't leave Zenit for Smethwick as St Petersburg is a lovely city. I went there in May

Bristol City? Nope, never heard of them. Must be some minor team from south of the river.

C'mon you Gas

[Villa in Denmark]

Jerome ?

David.

[mr underhill]

some reports are putting Traore's buy out as low as £4m ; if true anyone would be nuts not to buy him

Not necessarily to you specifically Goldie, but I don't get how the approach that we're taking is a huge (albeit necessary) risk with our recruitment policy, whilst when other teams, not just them do, deals like this its disappointing.

They're allegedly spending a fortune on a player that most of us hadn't heard of a week ago from a league where from my recollection it's at best 50:50 with their better players settling into western European leagues and the same league where they recruited their record waste of space from last summer.

Even recruiting from within the PL is a risk.
Nickey Shorey anyone?
