Summer transfer madness thread

[ASHTONVILLA]

Seen it reported we have agreed £2.5 for Carlos Sanchez with Fiorentina.

I was quite pleased when we signed him as he looked good for Colombia in the World Cup, but never showed much for the Villa. Also says we are looking to get about £10m each for Veretout and Gil, tbh I think that much would get the pair of them!

Still if we can get upwards of £15m for the surplus to requirement players and get the wage bill down by shifting donkeys like Richards out then Bruce should be able to get 2-3 decent signings in.

I thought Sanchez had already gone!
Mind you, I thought we had signed Johnstone on loan again with the option to buy too

Sanchez left ages ago.

Deal was done as soon as he played 20 games for them.

Good - he was shit.

See I read the article as we are "trying to get 9-10million for both of them" (Gil and Veretout) as meaning in total for the two.

In a world where Southampton apparently want £50-60m for van Dijk, anything is possible.

Can read it either way, but that would make more sense.

I'm sure I've seen the Norwegian guy on Bullseye.

Are you sure? Take your time. No rush. Take your time.

Yaya Sanogo anyone?

Isn't he Batfink's arch nemesis?

Nothing to do with transfers but I have just read that Hull have appointed former Russia boss Leonid Slutsky as head coach.

Childishly made me chuckle. Sorry, carry on as you were.

They went for Paul Trollope first, I hear.
