Summer 2016: Transfer rumours and suggestions

[UK Redsox]

Veretout has been officially unveiled by Saint-Etienne. Can't say it feels like a great loss.

What position does he play?

Lead singer.

Well, Sarah Cracknell is nearly 50, so she's probably lost a yard of pace.

[DB]

All this activity just shows the re-building job after last few seasons f**k up. Good we have cash to spend otherwise we would not have a prayer of getting out of the division. At least we have hope that RDM can do it this season.

You still "would", though.

I reckon it's Peter Davenport.

Of those listed (my ITK says he's on this list but can't nod as he's suffering from whiplash unfortunately, but he did blink)
Defoe - too slow 
Rashford - no need to buy other strikers
Bony - not especially quick
Bojan - maybe as Stoke would probably need a backup
Remy - yes please
Kone - not bad at this level - pace?
Valencia - world class no. 9? Pass 
Vokes - no pace - nope. 
Borini - maybe!

Defence and midfield is shaping up well. But the attack needs a pacy striker - really hope this is sorted before the end of the window. Could be the difference for automatic promotion.

Remy- supposedly joining Palace on a season long loan with a view of a permanent move

Makes sense for him, does not have to move house, premier league football, and Palace will pay him the same amount of money that he is on at Chelsea!

Maybe it is Borini?

[Keeno]

"Why Always Me"?

Surely not.

[markeeeebeeee2005]

The name has been mentioned by one of you

Nod if he's on my researched list

Nod

Ha, not sure why, but this tickled me. I think it might be that Skillz is more diligent in his scouting research than the Villa scouts.

[Percy McCarthy]

Heard that we're being linked with Cascarino who looks okay I guess but I'm still praying its Sheringham.

He was on SSN today talking about Jow Art. He said Ron Atkinson's first words to him as new Villa manager were 'Tony, you're not in my plans so if you could find yourself another club that would be great'.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Maybe it is Borini?

The thing I like most about Borini is his wife.

[Keeno]

I think from Skillz' list I'd most prefer Bony - I think not only is he massively surplus to requirements at Citeh and might just want to play, but he'd be absolutely perfect for what we want and for the kind of defences we'd be up against in this league.

[edgysatsuma89]

Bony won't be dropping to the Champ.

[mr underhill]

it's Danny Ings isn't it?

[Smirker]

Interesting reading a couple of forums from some of the other supposed top championship sides and seeing the complaints about how much money Newcastle and ourselves are spending.

It's very reminiscent to the Man City and Chelsea splurging complaints we had ourselves.

Which forums? I'd like to read this.
