That’s nothing to do with gossip columns.

My gaffer - a Glasgow based Celtic fan - reckons there’s talk up there of Matt O’Riley coming down to Villa.

Don’t know him, is he a defensive midfielder? I see that he is English with a very Irish name but plays for Denmark!
O Really

Tomorrow's back page:

STUFF YOUR WORLD CUP

Football's top leagues and player unions will today join forces to tell Fifa: "We will not play in your Club World Cup — you’re killing the game" (@M*rtinLipton).

Plus - Aston Villa are braced for new Liverpool boss Arne Slot to launch a bid for Ollie Watkins (@J*keSanders92).

Every player has his price. I would take £150m, not a penny less

He's (surprisingly) not in the Denmark squad for the Euros, so he'd be well-rested too.

The Danes had that other bloke with a name like he'd just come up from a Barnsley mine, Martin Braithwaite.

'Crysencio Summerville.'

"Nationality: Dutch"

More or less that entire Leeds team, including the permanent 'Gray' regen.

That club is just AI at this stage. The first silicon-based team in Football League history.
