It appears Unai said he’s sticking with Olsen as back up next season so no new keeper coming in

Links/quotes?

It's in what passes as the Meaning Evil.

Breaking: Aston Villa confirm striker transfer with surprise destination

The latest Aston Villa transfer news as the striker has joined Championship side Stoke City in a permanent move away from Villa Park

Wesley has now put pen-to-paper on a one-year deal with Stoke

https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/breaking-aston-villa-confirm-striker-27418293


Don't think they paid much for him (if anything), but its good to get him off the books

Tbh I had no idea he was still *on* our books...

I'd say around 100% bullshit.

Surely wherever Monchi is the deal gets done when he tells the person on the other end “Hola peasant, this is Monchi”

He's another Bailey, a luxury player capable of sporadic moments of brilliance. One or the other, perhaps, but not both...

Harsh comparison on Bailey, that. He's done way more than adama.

Did I just read somewhere that Inter have offered £12.5m for Martinez? Are they actually serious or doing it for s&g's?...

Except Bailey actually offers goals and assists, Traore has offered barely anything in over two years.

Diaby playing in the 10 role again. Rumours of Bailey going to Saudi. Room for a first choice wide right player to come in ahead of Philogene?
