Summer 2016: Transfer rumours and suggestions

[sid1964]

If the Hernandez deal could not be done because of personal terms, how much did he want £70k+ per week is my guess

The players that we have signed recently are going to be on a lot more than the gang who are left from last season, who have taken up to 50% pay cuts, I wonder if there is any bad feeling between the players over this issue?

Does not take much down the Villa to get some dressing room disharmony!

I remember the days when if a player wanted an agent he payed him 10% out of his own money

Pity about Hernandez, looks a tidy player. However £20m is steep and I don't want us loading up the wage bill too much either, we know where that got us under Lerner.

See we have been linked with Uruguayan international Diego Rolan today. Don't  know much about him, but has an impressive strike rate.

Maybe we will end up with Kodja and Rolan/Asombalonga/another striker now Hernandez has fallen through. Not convinced with Kodja, but hopefully he will add something.

Also read that the winger from Middlesboro turned us down. Not too bothered about that one, but hopefully we have another option lined up instead.

I can't see us buying three very expensive strikers this summer (including McCormack)

I can, we'll be going out just to out score teams.
Looking forward to nail biting 6-4 victories

My slight concern, admittedly based on not much more than dodgy news sources, is that players seem to be giving us the swerve in a way they weren't earlier in the window. Have our performances so far dispelled the idea that we are likely promotion candidates? Are there rumblings amongst players that we're still basket case territory?

Hopefully, the reason these last few deals are taking a bit of time to get over the line are because they have been the ones that have been rumbling on for the whole summer, rather than players suddenly changing their attitude towards us.

[mr underhill]

look at it this way if Kodjia joins we have three strikers who have all scored 20 goals plus in this league. I'd be happy with that, even more so with Morrison , another keeper, and a Lescott replacement.

[Ron Manager]

So as I understand it the Hernandez deal is off. That of course can only mean one thing.

He will be a Villa player by the end of the day!!

Federico Macheda has just left Cardiff.......

He looked quite good once. Unfortunately it was against us.

I'm surprised we haven't got any loans in.

I'd be happy with Kodjia despite the price. Add Morrison as the CAM and that'd suit me

But where are our scouts and what are they doing to earn their money? why are we only linked with the seemingly obvious big money names? where are the scouts out there trawling Europe and the planet for the next Kodjia, Hernandez, McCormack, Assombalonga before they become hugely expensive ?

It's all very lazy looking from the outside

We would just say we were bargain basement shopping again if we did.

Weren't we linked with Rolan last summer as well? Wonder what Mattia Destro's up to these days as well.
