I'm amazed that Liverpool haven't come for Konsa now that they've let Quansah go. Maybe we could go after Vin Dijk instead.

Konaté has one year left and, as yet, hasn’t signed a new contract so I think they’ll sign at least one centre half, by all accounts they want Géuhi from Palace.

I wasn’t a great fan of Konsa last season but the fee being talked about when Geuhi was going to go to Newcastle makes me think that Konsa would or should command a similar amount.

🚨 NEW: Aston Villa are in the best position to recruit Toulouse defender Jaydee Canvot (18).
@lequipe

6'2"
Turns 19 in 4 weeks time.
20 games in Ligue 1 for Toulouse, who finished mid-table last season,conceded 43 in 34 games.

Capped at every level from U16 to U20s.

Looks like either another one to train up and sell on, although buying him for €20m/£17.35m reduces any potential profit.

Perhaps were looking to play him and Oczan together as a pair to bring in to replace Tyrone and Ezri season after next?

I'm bored of buying teenagers. Can we go the other way and get some over-40s in instead? There must be some experienced talent around the globe. Start on Craggy Island and go from there.

I'd like us to buy Richard Osman. He'd add height.

Unless it will help with the home grown rule, I think he'd be a pointless signing.

He can play as a defensive midfielder too so it had a ring of Kamara about it too.

These young really promising signings, great, either they graduate to play in our team or we improve them elsewhere then sell them. I am all for that.

We do, however, need to be making some 'ready now' players over the next few weeks, so hopefully we have some deals advanced.

Absolutely, the team needs to kick on and that needs to include the signing of some real quality.

I don't care what age the players are, as long as they're absolutely fabulous.

Rugged Island has the best over-75s.

If the kid costs ~£20m, they wouldn't be buying him for his potential at that price.

They're a one-man team.

That’s us signing Eddie now then.
