Still don't really follow why Hernandez would want to drop a division after two in two in the premier league. But hoping he does.

One in two.

One and a half in two.

Because over a 3/4 years contract there is a strong view he would be in the Premiership with us whilst Hull go the other way

Oh but the main reason is because

WE ARE ASTON VILLA

According to the Mail, Lescott in advanced negotiations with AEK Athens - I hope he realises how far from Manchester - Greece is?

Yes but with the money he has imagine the sort of cars he could afford in the Greek economy.

Sure. But wouldn't you back yourself and wait? He's either going to get an immediate better offer or have a season doing his thing in the top flight, in which case he'll have no shortage of premier league teams

We might just be offering a lot more cash I guess

He was awful for Fulham, but that was a few years ago now.

I'm sure people are just randomly grabbing letters out of the Scrabble bag and making up names now.

I hope the Lescot and Richards stories are true and they bugger off sharpish

This may have been posted as it isn't new. Purports to be an interview with Hernandez. Key points below

http://www.ovaciondigital.com.uy/futbol/joya-hernandez-inglaterra-hull-city.html

Por último, sobre la chance de pasar al Newcastle o Aston Villa, Abel dice que "son dos clubes que tienen proyectos interesantes y que están trabajando bien". Por eso, esta semana será clave para saber si sigue en Hull, pasa a uno de los dos equipos señalados o al West Bromwich Albion (Premier), que ya preguntó por

He's basically saying that villa and Newcastle have "interesting projects and are working well". So doesn't seem to be ruling it out,  but could obviously be keeping his options open. This one might run on a bit.

Don't understand Spanish, but I'm guessing that as they are mentioned, Albion are also interested.  Would be great to beat them to his signature and seeing as we are currently getting significantly bigger crowds than them, it would put pay to the 'who's bigger club nonsense' spouted on WM.
