Michelle Owen - looking at her bump on the telly the other night, I think that someone has beat you to her. She is very attractive though.

Poor girl, sounds fuxking horrible. Hope all works out well and the babby is healthy (and a top Villa player in twenty years).

She's a Bristol City fan so we'll probably buy him (if it's a boy) off them for 500m in 2040.

I had a dream last night that we signed Callum Wilson from Bournemouth for £32.5m. If that's not a rumour, I don't know what is.

My friend works at villa as a coach.

Not first team but still hears things now and again.

Aparently we are after a striker in a similar model to aguero 5'8-5"10 small low centre of gravity type so we have 2 legitimate attacking options. Sadly the second bit is all the names he mentioned are from either league 1 in France or seria A. So not maupay.

They were just names he has heard tossed around though not players we have enquired about so it's pointless to speculate but Simione at Fiorentina fits that bill

We were linked to Gregoire Defrel the other week. French, on loan at Sampdoria from Roma. Would seemingly tick all those boxes.

I speak to her often when she is at VP

She is a Villa fan as is her Father - she does live in Bristol area hence the reason she used to report a lot on their games on a Saturday

She is even more lovelier close up

If Mertens were to leave Napoli there would be a lot of clubs in the queue ahead of us.

Proof in the eating and all that, but.... I’m struggling to think of a summer where I was so convinced about our transfer activity. Every one makes sense. None feels like a serious compromise. To overhaul a squad so fully and still have fans on message boards so united behind the plan must be a rare thing in football.
