No Woods for Brentford or Ward for Wigan. Tenuously linked with both this summer.
Clucas is off to Burnley so I think Woods will fill his space at Swansea.

Powell played and scored I think today. Anyway Brentford have rejected a £12m bid from Bournemouth for Chris Mepham. Barmy.

Daily Mail linking us with Millwall midfielder George Saville. Leeds interested too apparently.

Jimmy's grandson i believe. No chance of that one, he's going to his boyhood club.

We're gonna be stuck with has-beens again en we?
The loan market should really kick in when the transfer window closes. The Loftus cheek/ Tammy Abraham type players will be the last ones to go out as Chelsea (for example) will know that if they don’t land some of the  world class players they are looking at, these guys are at the level they can come off the bench and be good enough to fill in

Linked with a loan for Tuanzebe again

http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2018/08/05/report-aston-villa-close-to-re-signing-axel-tuanzebe-on-loan/


He’s very highly rated by Man Utd fans and we didn’t see enough of him to really make a judgment last season therefore I’m pretty happy with this.

If he can stay fit, Tuanzebe will hopefully give us height and mobility to play the 3-5-2 formation.

Loftus-cheek good off the bench and fill in?

I'd love to see him at Villa as a first starter, way above anything we've got in midfield except for Jack
