Summer 2016: Transfer rumours and suggestions

[footyskillz]

Michael McGovern the northern ireland GK is on a free be intetrested to sign him.

[Toronto Villa]

They would think like this: -

If Villa offers more, I'll go to them.
If Burnley offers more, I'll go to them

Burnley.

Have a good season in the Prem and you'll get better offers than Burnley or Villa.

That's only if you believe that the Aston Villa of the past five years will be the Aston Villa of the future. And that we won't re-establish ourselves in the English game as top football club.

If we are interested in Brady then I think he'd be a really good buy and make our left side easily the best in the league.

I think the argument of taking the Premier deal and looking to move on having proved myself in the Prem is a strong argument, especially for younger players. If the same situation applied and I had a family, I wouldn't want to keep up-rooting them and could easily be swayed by a good case Villa could make about the new 'project' and the owner's ambition.

Not really. If we offer more money then he'll probably come to us.

If we don't, why is he going to come to "the Aston Villa of the future" when he can earn more money playing in the Premier League?

And if we're that bothered about him signing and we truly are the "Aston Villa of the future", why wouldn't we be offering him more money anyway?

To clarify my earlier point, I think a young player who has started to make a bit of a name for himself in the Championship or a lower divsion and gets the offer of Aston Villa 2016 or Burnley, he'll opt for Burnley.

But there might be players plenty good enough for us who are bit-part players in the PL currently and might be attracted at the prospect of a year of opening a can of whoop-ass in the Championship.   Dwight Gayle, Connor Wickham or similar.

I haven't been following this thread so apologies if mentioned already, but Darren Randolph looks like a good option judging by his ROI performances. Am I right in thinking he's West Ham's second-choice?

The Scum reporting that we are going to bid £11m or whatever it takes to get Ross McCormack and £2m for Pantillimon(sp).

[Dave]

He is

[Toronto Villa]

Mane going to Liverpool for £30m is nuts

[PeterWithesShin]

He's a good player and only 24, but jeeze that's a bit on the pricey side.

[olaftab]

They are self made victims of waste. Remember 20million for W*nker Downing followed by 32M for someone they confined to reserves so this deal is right in line.

Not to mention £35m for Andy Carroll...

I'd give up if I were a Southampton fan.

So when does the 50% weekly pay cut start for our Superstars of last season

Still no takers for any of them!
