Well if it's not ITK then it's misleading with this 'Aston Villa News' website . It's .co.uk as well. Why so quick to dismiss it when the address is Aston Villa?
I'm not familiar with Peter Lynch. But maybe one to keep an eye on if other news outlets start running the story.

I'm dismissing it because:

1. there's literally no substance to the story.
2. I've seen enough of their 'exclusives' to know it's all made up bullshit.

You might ask the same about'Football Insider': beguiling name but full of BS.

What on earth has the fucking domain name got to do with anything. I could register astonvillaguaranteedtransfernews.co.uk in about five minutes for a few quid and put on there that we're signing the corpse of Richard III.

If you're ever in this part of the world Footy I'd highly recommend Pete Lynch if you need a taxi.  Always gets me home from the pub safe and sound.  Nice bloke too.

We need to be looking at the likes of Brajan Gruda.

Players thought to be the next "wonder-kids".

He's likened to Thomas Mueller & when Mueller sought him out to trade shirts recently, it was seen as a symbolic "passing of the torch".

Those sorts of youngsters are what we need to be looking at...

They're also the sort of youngsters that tend to have clubs like Chelsea offering £40-50m for them on the off chance they make good on that potential. That's not to say it's impossible to get them but it's a congested market.

Oh yeah, I agree the market is congested, & if someone like Chelsea come along & wants to splash £50m at them, then we walk away. Unless we really want the kid, of course.

But that would be on a case by case basis.

I just think that we have to at least attempt to compete for some of these top "wonder-kid" players, within reason of price, personal demands, etc, as part of our evolution to becoming a top club once again...

Please don't. He'll be wanting to discuss the pro's and con's of that potential deal next.

Bruce would've taken him. Grim-visaged War hath smoothed his wrinkled front. A player in his own image.

I doubt it, with that hunchback he'd have really struggled with pulling up his socks.

I’m not sure Leicester will sell whilst they are set for promotion?

Come on now, read it and realise there’s no hint of a rumour in the actual discussion. It’s the absolute definition of ‘click bait’. So much so I’ve no idea why you’ve stated ‘could be one to keep an eye on’ unless you are the definition of click bait and I’ve fallen hook line and sinker….doh

We should take a punt on this Irish kid, Naj Razi, at Shamrock Rovers. He's only 17 so can't sign for a British club until he's 18, Brexit apparently, but that's what that Portugese team is for! Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal are all showing interest in him.

No idea on the quality of the player but yes that’s exactly how the sister club should used.

Err lads, isn’t Portugal in the EU as well? Or is it more get him to the sister club so we get first refusal when he’s 18?
