Winter transfer, gossip, speculation and usual butter ollocks thread

[cdbearsfan]

We aren't signing Piatek.

[PaulWinch again]

No that’d be my assumption.

[mr underhill]

Sky UK have pulled the story now so i think it's safe to file under bollocks. Napoli are reputedly interested in Maupay, who Brighton now value at £40m!

[PeterWithe]

Some of the Milanese press still seem to be running with it, although I get that they may have picked it up from Sky in the first place.

[mallo]

Oh well it was nice while it lasted

[aj2k77]

Yeah it'll be some shithouse like Assombalonga.

Piatek

Been denied by Villa according to Sky...so cross him of the list.

Announce Giroud

Announce Giroud

of course they would deny it even if true. it would alert other clubs and you cannot discuss other clubs players

Nope we just stick with no comment. The agent has been doing a good job of spouting bollocks...it seems

Newcastle United in talks  for Ademola Lookman loan deal .
Pacey wide forward , young and was always decent at Everton on prem . Hasn't been too much playing time since his move to Germany.
Villa are hindering there chances not taking the young players for loans as it's seen as developing other clubs young talent.

I get that but I also think let's not be too proud and bring in some short term loan types.

Drinkwater situation seems different and he's 29 but I remember Purslow basically saying no more loan signings
in the summer which was rather foolish, naive and outdated comments  at the time. The loan market can be very effective and needs must.

Yes would like the Villa to swoop on lookman . Wonderful talent. I imagine Bruce and Newcastle see him as a saint maxim replacement.

Was thinking that too. Got to be at least as good as we've got and could be much better.

And if he's allegedly unhappy in Germany the loan thing shouldn't be a concern as a buy to loan might suit everyone.

Think with our director of football Suso he likes to bring in non UK players when he's looking over seas.
I don't feel the '8 glasses' signed from Chelsea was anything major by him more Smith, JT  and their input for domestics market

Suso left to do his moves seems to be looking round southern Europe but it's either there or Western Europe.
When there's no African nations on.

Can't imagine him going around league 1 or looking at Ivan Toney or even the championship Jared Bowen

Just how I see it .

[Pete3206]

Kodjia to run riot tonight

[Des Little]

Bit early to be on the cooking sherry Pete?

[Jon Crofts]

Good source says we are making progress with Bowen. Be happy with that to supply the ammo.
