We could save money on Michael Keane by just sticking a traffic cone in our penalty area. It would have better mobility too.

I miss the days of just reading posts without checking who posted them. Sometimes, I’d think ‘that sounds authoritative - sounds like Dave - check and correct. Sometimes I’d think ‘yes, I agree with that - probably LeeB’. Now we’re back to mindless drivel - you know who.

Yeah sorry about that. I'm trying.

Kiliscoy in for £20-25m.

Duran out for £85m+

All those in favour say "aye".

Semih Kılıçsoy (19) plays for Besiktas in the Turkish SupeLig as a striker, he can also play as a winger or attacking midfielder. He is two footed, his idol is Sergio Agüero.

34 League games 12 goals. 4 full caps

Kiliscoy is a big deal over in Turkey. Would be a very interesting capture !
Reading around and my Turkish isn't great but the reports on the young turk suggested a buy but loan him back agreement which isn't going ahead.

Someone has gone in two footed with the wind ups again. Shame, I was enjoying it for a bit as a novelty.

I’m ashamed to say he’s a relative. My Nan’s cousin.

Edit - Killroy-Silk. Not the Turkish lad.

Was that Keane who played Watkins onside for our winner at Everton? Not sure Diego Carlos would be that far behind the defensive line.

Aston Villa are exploring a move for Besiktas forward Semih Kılıçsoy.
@SportsPeteO

We've been linked with him for over 12 months now and is well documented on here. As much as I like/love him, I can't see it happening unless we bring him in on loan with an option to buy. Where he fits in is another matter. The Turkish Sergio Agüero I think would work best with Duran rather than Watkins, the Little & Large Show. That said, as I previously mentioned, he's having a poor season, the complete opposite to last season, no idea why. I can see why Beşiktaş  may want to cash in now though.

Such derogatory attempts are uncalled for, and the narrative you're attempting to repeat at my posts being unequal to others still in 2025 is really disheartening. Please don't. It lacks community spirit and against site rules. And it's attempting to put me down . Its so so unnecessary.

I hardly consider debating and discussing Duran moving to be drivel, as well as everything else I've contributed. It's seems it's more a case of disagreeing with my opinions and views, which is acceptable, but pouring scorn is not. Its fair more constructive when one provides their own thoughts in the debate and discussion. You have plenty of outstanding inputs I like reading them.
So if needed to discuss my opinion come on at least do it constructively. I really don't want to be a punching bag for the constant negative comments on my postings. There is no need for you to keep choosing to be like that.

I hope there's no more need for you to do that to make put downs on my posts. I don't aim to annoy you  or anyone and I had hoped in 2025 respect and understanding shown. Hoping I would not have to defend myself or call people out. I'll have a break now as I'm upset having to even type this.

That said I offer Best wishes for Sunday game and that you enjoy your whole weekend.

Let us move forward and stick to being constructive at the least if needing to comment towards my musings
Thank You
Up The Villa !
