Get the fuck outta here!

"Aston Villa are working on a last-gasp deal to sign Lyon midfielder Hosseum Aouar."

Has the punchbag at Bodymoor broken?

Houssem Aouar.  Villa trying to progress a last ditch loan deal for Lyon midfielder who has had an injury plagued season. 

[LeeB]

He was hot property a couple of years back

I would take Bamford.  There I have said it.  If Anwar comes back there could be trouble mind.

[Footy-Vill]

Sander Berge? If we don't do a deal Fulham or Newcastle will.
If Lange had any Scandinavian influence now is the time

You can’t be suggesting we pay money to buy El Ghazi back?? :-)

[Footy-Vill]

Bamford had one season where he looked prem level. And that happened to be the season with no fans in the stadium so it was training ground performances.
He's overall shown over previous seasons patently not good enough and injured constantly in recent times it's  a no even if he scores against Villa quite recently

Why in the holy name of fuck would we go for him when we've already got three better versions of what he does to cover two spots?

[Monty]

Aouar's had a rough time recently but the talent there is top-level.

Weren't we linked to him before? I seem to recall someone saying his name sounded like a Wurzels refrain.

[Goldie.7]

So we started off the window with links to Danjuma, Guendouzi, Felix, David and ended up with Moreno, Duran and the return of Bert who’s having to be helped down the Air Turkiye plane steps as he’s on crutches.

They are all coming in the summer, honest! 2023-24 is going to be our year!

In reality, I would bet that we'll lose another major asset just like after the 2020-21 season when the optimism levels were damn close to what they are now.

What Aston Villa do is take one step forward to build false hope then never take the next step. The vultures then swoop in because we didn't progress and rip apart the spine. Repeat....!

Idiot in Sky Sports saying the period over which Chelsea pay for Fernandez will have FFP  implications.
Twat.

It's true.

That’s not how amortisation works , it’s the price paid divided by the term of the contract. The period you take to buy the player is irrelevant.

Yeah Paulie... you thicko
