Hopefully this one gets done soon.

This is the signing I am most excited about - it's the one I can see having the greatest impact on how we play.
Absolutely agree that this role is critical to us.

No. He is training alone with his personal trainer who post pics on Twitter and Instagram tagging Villa. This is a done deal as soon as the work permit is worked out. It's more complex than Trezeguet because one is a proven international with loads of caps and the other isn't.

Posts I've seen have four Lion emojis at the bottom. So, unless he's signing for Millwall, I think this'll happen eventually

Need to check the birth places of our Egyptians to see if they are African or Asian continent, presumably within Egypt you can transform into an Asian Car Reverser in the same manoeuvre? Do we we have the Geography teacher equivalent of Bad English on here?

Both of our Egyptians were born firmly in the African bit, so qualify for ACR status.

As as an aside, is there any other country in the world that has 'ology' appended to it when talking about the study of it?

Fuck! What with confusing El Ghazi and Elmohamady, I'm having a bad day. You might call me a Luzer.
