Must be some traction in the Nzonzi rumours as most media outlets are running the story

I shudder when I see a Villa player whose name begins with Drink.  And a battering ram centre forward whose name begins with Slim.  Is there a wide man called Chance we can team him up with?
Given that 'Slimani' comes from 'Suleiman', which means 'man of peace' this would enable us to give 'Peace' a 'Chance'. And that is surely what we need at the Villa.

Well our last piece of silverware was the Peace Cup.


I am all for peace so long as it isn't Jeremy Peace.

He always impressed me when he played for Blackburn and Stoke, particularly when I saw him in the flesh playing at Villa Park. Big, strong and skillful.

Quote from: @villareport
Gastón Pereiro: “PSV told me that they have already come to an agreement with Cincinnati. I told my representative that if there is a chance to stay in Europe I prefer that. He is working on an offer from Aston Villa.” [@Sport890] #avfc

Never heard of him before, but having checked, he is 24 year old 6'2" Uruguayan international with a 1 in 3 goal record whose contract expires in the summer.

Gaston Pereiro would be excellent signing imo.

Been at PSV a few years now but still only 24.

Can play right across the forward line. 43 goals in 110 games for them. O.k o.k it's the dutch league but also 4 goals in 10 games for Uruguay since his first cap in 2017.

Looks well worth a punt to be fair across the front line.

We're going to have midfielders up front on Saturday aren't we? Will be a shame if we bugger up the next couple because of transfers and we end up looking back regretfully in May.

Peas however don’t need to be given a chance, they are already one of Britain’s most popular vegetables.
Vegetables are often paired with fruit and post Brexit clearly our Bananas will be as curved as we all want them to be.
A curve ball is a baseball term, baseball being American you might think that Villa are signing an North American. But, there is South America too of course and for the second city we find in fact the clues lead us to a guy, from the second smallest South American country, Uruguay. Gastón Rodrigo Pereiro López has of course recently been linked to the Villa, whereas in fact the prize here, is closer to the polyglot polymath Jennifer Lopez, famed for amongst other things making records.
The new signing here is a freshly autographed very rare, African Car Reverser double A side.

I saw his name mentioned on Twitter a week or so ago.
