I hope they are cooling but appreciate others want it to heat up; personally with Gestede now on board I'd be tempted to stick with what we have or take a risk on someone like Oulare for the future.

If we can get Adebayour on loan for a season I think his experience and goals would be invaluable

Exactly.  I thought there were pictures of him at Bodymoor Heath several days ago?

No idea, Phil. Strange that we see a photo of him a couple of days ago at BH and since then nothing.

he's actually going to join the sales team at 'Pat's Hats' in little Walsingham, dividing his time there with a backroom role at the local butchers.

There must be an issue over the fee Levy wants and if they are subsidising any of the wage . Knowing levy hes probably said no subsidy and a £5m fee and villa hAVe told him to Fork off

I think we can afford to play hardball with Levy now.

If he's been seen at Bodymoor Heath, you would expect that any fees have been agreed with Spurs already surely?

I wouldn't be shocked if we're trying to negotiate his wages down if he's really on £100k a week though, in fact I'd be disappointed if we weren't.

Ball is in our court really, do a deal with us or keep him. Surely if they are prepared to let Kozak go on loan something must be happening

There's no way we will be paying a fee and full wages. We aren't desperate, we've got cash in our pocket and just signed a striker. If there's any haggling on this it wont be going Levy's way.

Is it just possible he failed the medical? More likely something to do with Daniel Levy.

Fuck Levy. We don't need his problems here. Why should we help a direct rival?

I would prefer him in our squad for the season, rather than not.
If the other boys take a while finding there shooting boots, Ade will be a great stop gap until they do.

Hopefully we will be a direct rival with the new squad we've assembled but after finishing 17th, we won't be seen that way.
