Premier League outfit Brighton and Hove Albion are preparing a £3 million bid for Aston Villa’s young striker Keinan Davis, according to the Bun.
Crumbs a huge club like that coming in for him could really turn his head...

Especially with such a massive bid.

this is bollocks - an identical story surfaced just before he signed his new contract.

Ulloa would be a decent signing.

Never heard of the other guy.

Every time I have seen Amartey he has been awful and most Leicester fans would agree with that .

I asked my Leicester supporting dad about him earlier, and he reckons he's as bad as Whelen-which was enough for me to hope we don't get him.

Ulloa on the other hand would be good for us, says my dad.

I think Ulloa would do a job but Amartey would be our
Ghanaian Zidane   ( file under another Salifou )

If we can get anyone capable of ten plus goals between Jan and May then our defence is good enough to turn that into a lot of points.

Quite a while since anything to do with our defence could be described as that!.

Would he be our first Argentine player?

Didn’t we have a player called Bartelt in the 00s, came from an Italian club didn’t play much and went back quickly?

Might have imagined it.

Edit: I didn’t imagine it although wiki suggests he came on loan and didn’t play at all, surprising I can remember that from 18 years ago but not what I was going up the stairs for 10 minutes ago.

I have been sitting on a fantastic Villa Transfer story.  Before Christmas I heard from my son who is friends with the Gardners that Frank Lampard would be joining on a 6 month loan in January.  I was a bit surprised that nobody reported the rumour and it turns out that Gary was winding up his cousin who is one of the few Gardner Villa fans.
It was never going to happen but maybe GG should be head of recruitment, Lampard and Drogba on short term loans ?

I remember Gregory having the hump with Bartelt for not having the right attitude - coming in with sunglasses on his head or something

I recall him because I saw a ‘Villa sign Argentine star’ headline with a pic and thought we’d got Canniggia.

Anyone remember Alex Sperr?
