Summer transfer, gossip, speculation thread

Jansson is apparently off to Brentford, which is an odd one.

He's fallen out with Bielsa.

I would happily take Cahill for a season or two. Like Clough took Dave Mackay to Derby and Colin Todd to Forest for a year or two. Kenny Dalglish did the same when he took Tony Gale to Blackburn for a year and he helped them win the league. Just as Terry did so well for us in his last season as a player, albeit in the Championship. There is nothing wrong with having one or two veterans in your side so long as you don't have a team full of them.

Jim Smith did it with a certain Irish international at the Rams. He got a standing ovation after every home game

I also think he was 37 by the time he went to Derby.

Was there anything to suggest that Lescott was less than a consummate professional before he joined us? And I don't really think he was a c***. He just got old and went off. It happens. I've no idea whether it would happen with Cahill.

Richards career was going downhill even before we bought him. As for Lescott I thought he would be a decent signing for Albion but in his last year there every time I saw them live on TV it looked to me as if Lescott's leags had gone. Then we decided to buy him.

The last time Jansson was off anywhere it was to find his wife's killer after he had been wrongly accused of her murder.

One for the teenagers there.

There is no clear evidence Cahill is coming to Villa. Gregg Evans has literally dismissed the chance. And he has already quoted he wants to stay in London. Ezri Konsa (Brentford) has a 12m buy out clause he is quality and with Terry coaching him can be top notch ……...

That's going from one extreme to the other.

[WALTERS WARRIORS]

But that is the profile Purslow clearly identified after the play-offs. Not a player looking for his probable last contract. England u21 with a big value potential …...

ABC?

Ezri Konsa is ‘only ‘ 6ft which these days is small for a CB. Apparently he can also play RB and most importantly defensive central M/F so I wonder if that would be a consideration.

"Transfer,gossip,speculation".......think about it.....it's not rocket science ffs!

Cue..."Yeah but Cahill is too old!"

Does he have the look of love, though?

I don't know the answer to that question.
