Think I said early doors of Emery this was a serious target. His number one defender he wanted - period

Great addition

Who do you think is next Vinnie?

Diaby and Johnson links true. We want both of them (mentioned Johnson before)

Wonder if this would involve Bailey & Traore as cash plus trade.

Bert must remain.

Even after Carpethead's idiotic decision to bin him off to Turkey, he comes back and hits two crucial goals in limited minutes in the second half of the season.

Totally effortless to him. He makes football look fun.

Unfortunately, Traore has two interpretations of 'effortless' - one is the rarely seen interpretation as per at Leicester, and the much more frequently seen one is 'effortless' as in 'there is no effort in evidence'.

I've met you edgy satsumas before. You're not edgy, you just hate joy. Wink.

Ooo I'm not edgy at all, I'm like a cue ball. I'll get joy from seeing someone better than Bert on the pitch, though 🙂.

I love Bert, but that love is better remembered for being still in bloom when it ended. Far better that Leicester away is my abiding memory of the Villa Bert affair, than the many more games that there were like Wolves away.

Bert must go now and ply his insane cross field volleys on new pastures.
Love you Bert.

What if we scour the world to sign a winger called Ernie to play across from him?

That would actually make all the difference and would make my rapidly increasing season ticket price worth every penny

A fantastic transfer , but where does this leave Mings?
Pau Torres is the epitome of football.
Of course, it's a squad game, but Torres is a better footballer than Mings, so Torres must be first choice.

I think Emery loves Mings, Footy.

I've never been fully convinced about Mings, but he's been outstanding since Emery came in, and I'm chuffed for the bloke. His manner and work off the pitch is exemplary, also.

I don't think Mings is being dropped for Torres.
