Summer Transfer Thread and Gustavo Cisneros Type Rumours.

[Dave]

As Legion says, let's leave it all there and move on please.

[Drummond]

Anyway, apparently Roma have had a bid for Granit Xhaka turned down and are also interested in Douglas Luiz..... That was on the BBC so probably GREEN, or maybe FLASHING AMBER. (Though that last one does sound a bit Blackpool on a 1990's stag do.)

[Monty]

I suspect Roma would have to offer a lot more of their transfer budget for Doug than they would like. Besides, unless he has other motives for wanting to move there, why would he swap one project with proven upward mobility for another which hasn't demonstrated anything yet other than rhetoric?

Thought Glen Kamara had a good game for Finland in the ill fated Denmark game.

Sure we were linked to him the summer we came up and maybe even last season aswell.

Looks a reasonably mobile DM and his short and long range passing was decent.

Good european experience with Rangers and guess what, he was in Arsenal reserve team with Emi who seems to be our second DOF these days.

10m + Nakamba looks interesting deal to me.

Good shout, he's a decent player capable of playing at a higher club level

Daily Mail claiming Ashley Young could be on his way back to the Villa.
Can’t see this happening.

[cdbearsfan]

I could live with it as full back cover, on the basis he would be the sort of full back I like, ie one that doesn't bother defending.

[frank black]

Welcome back Ashley Young.

As cover I have no issue with this at all

[OCD]

Some short-term deals may help kids come through and he can play left back or left midfield so it might not be a bad shout.

Need cover ay left back to be fair

[eamonn]

Yes, the prodigal son returns! Ash, we loved you. And we can do so again.

[Brazilian Villain]

Add me to those happy to have him around as experienced cover for a year.

[Toronto Villa]

His attitude was always brilliant. Great back up at LB and on the wing.

[paul_e]

Yep, he'd be fantastic cover for a year or 2, I think a lot of our players could learn a lot from him.

[andyh]

Not too fussed on Young. It smacks of Cashley  Cole going to derby for one last payday. I doubt 35 year old Ashley Young  is the same that we remember from years ago.
 Wages of what, £3-4m for 12 months ?

No ta.

[SamTheMouse]

He's just won the Scudetto, so I think he deserves a lot of credit. He must have looked after himself pretty well.
