Sounds like Samatta may be on his way to Fenerbache which is a shame because he had a super record when he joined us. But it makes sense and allows us to bring in another forward to back up Ollie until Wes gets back.

Dean's comment re. Taylor was class...I've seen people do no-look passes before, but never seen no-look receiving of the ball.

As long as we're only linked with him it's fine.

I honestly don't mind him that much. He looked pretty good when he first broke into the Man Ure team but he does seem to have gone backwards.

Delph is a good player but seems to have spent at least half of his career crocked.  May as well sign Wilshere.

Delph is yet another player who is probably past his best at thirty. At best might be worth a punt on a two year deal. I think our club is being run very well these days but any attempt to sign Wilshere would make me question the Villa powers that be. There is a headline on line that says "Galatasaray To Request Detailed medical Report For Jack Wilshere Before Making Move'". When I read that I had a vision of the Galatasaray  fax machine spitting out page after page of Wilshere's medical history before overheating and blowing up.

We'll sign Barkley and Mark Noble now and my head will explode.

Lots of talk around Samatta to Fenerbache.  Surely that means we have a deal for another striker sorted?

Sun (exclusive)? Reckon Baggies are trying to hijack Samatta deal to  Fenerbache?? Don't let him go to that shower! What's the betting he scores against us if he ends up at the Hawthorns??

Depends on whether Smith sees Traore as an option up front i'd guess. If he does Watkins with Davis and Traore as backups and Wesley to return in a couple of months is probably ok. This is why having forward players who can play a few different roles is important, it gives us depth without having 3-4 players for a single position.

I'd loan him to them, and put a clause in that he had to play against us.

Let’s offer Delph a 5 year contract with £100k a week and then pull out of it at the last minute like he did with us.

I like it

Just a joke Fab

Delph can fuck off. Done  nothing of note for 2-3 years
