If we're talking QPR, I think Osayi-Samuel is pretty decent. Pacy and strong winger.

Off to Bruges apparently.

At least we'll buy him once he's passed our "is he any good in Belgium?" test.

Wasn't Callum Wilson a bit of a twat about us when he was a Coventry player?

I think that's over-egging our policy, which would more correctly be described as "does he play in Belgium?".

We need a serious upgrade on AEG and Trezeguet.
I’d love us to try and bring Albrighton home.

Why? He is past it. Would have taken him in the championship but not now. We need quality not has beens. A good player in his day though

If we get a fee for Chester it would be the greatest transfer scam in history, and we once got £20m for Downing!

Reports that we're battling West Brom for QPR's Eze. Apparently Rangers want £20m. Surely if we're interested he would choose Villa?

Not a significant fee at this stage of his career, but that's harsh to say the least. He improved Stoke since he moved and he's not some throw away player.

I would be generally wary of picking off the players form relegated teams. In particular it would be a 'no'to Philip Billing and Jefferson Lerma.

Billing has been relegated twice and like Lerma is a walking yellow card and they are very limited in what they provide.

Brooks and Wilson might be a different matter though.

Eze I would also take. We let
Benrahma slip through the net last year and Eze could be another one that is within our reach and he has the capacity to improve both us and himself.

Lerma is a bell end - looks like a red card about to happen every week.

I'd go for Lewis Cook, Callum Wilson from Bournemough.

From Watford I'd go for Doucoure, Deulofeu

Norwich's full backs Lewis and Aarons are decent

Someone posted earlier that if we do have to lose Jack eventually we should do like Leicester did with Maguire and buy a guy we can develop for a season as a capable replacement.
For me Eze has that potential

We released him a month ago, he's a free agent.

he's a good player, I've heard he's off to Palace as Zaha's replacement

I read something about Eze being West Ham bound.
