Hernandez would be a really good signing.

Emmanuel Adebayor has been described as such as Dimitor Berbatov. There's also hal Robson kanu world class showing in euros but I think we could be looking at miroslav klose or ronaldinho! Now those 2 are world class!
They are all unattached I believe !

Can't really see Bayer Leverkusen letting Hernandez go? Would be class signing - but would he drop to the Championship?

Rumours are getting stronger Ravel Morrison is coming to Villa from Lazio. If so, would this be a good move? Probably in my view - especially if Veretout leaves this window - we desperately need midfield creativity. MOrrison has it. But failing at Man U, West Ham and now Lazio shows there is something wrong with his approach. 8 games and 159 minutes at Lazio this season was poor, though a new country is a hard ask.

He could be the making of our poor midfield, and give us the attacking option Veretout did not. He is a gamble as he is not a proven team player. But that is for the manager to decide as the risk to team unity seems to be an issue. Its odd no one is talking about midfield. We do need a striker and a right back, but midfield is calling out for a creative player to supplement or supplant WEstwood or Gardner. What do other fans think?

I think this could go in the transfer thread.

The story was on two sites yesterday, Football Italia at 8 59 and Eurosport at 9 53. Both seem to come from a report in Italian on Corriere Della Sport and I don't read ITalian. Rumour has been around for a while, but this one says Morrison left out of pre season match at Bergamo and was seen at Rome's Fiumcino airport. But if he was heading to England then the English media should pick up this soon. Wait and see!

Reports suggest Veretout on a season long loan to St Etienne will be completed today.

Could go one of two ways. He comes in an decides to break the Championship goalscoring record and becomes a hero. Or he comes in and takes his £X'000 per week wages and sulks. I don't see an in-between option.

I reckon he'd slaughter the Championship, but file under "no fucking chance of it happening".

Dr X has stated pretty clear that this isn't going to happen.
