Speculation/Gossip/Hearsay/My Friends, Dad's Uncle said so Thread

A place for pure 'Speculation' NOT to be confused with 'ITK' or 'FACTS' Just harmless, gossip, be it the Red Tops, Twitter, or something you heard in the Pub, or another site, share it and let's discuss with an attitude that it's probably not likely/May not be, true but there's no harm in it

Moses was thrown in by the Telegraph so you think maybe, but why? Not the area to aim for right now. Lescott would be welcomed by me and Nixon seems to think its on. With 4 CB's consisting of Okore, Clark, Lescott and Captain Micky, I think the depth in that position is solid. Anyone think theres anything in this Keita Balde Diao stuff?

Keita is a damn good footballer. I wonder about his temperament though, as he's only young but he's fallen out with two big clubs already.

I'd take a chance though because he would add to Villa's over all skill level and pace. We could be really hard to handle if Sherwood can get everyone at it.

Ahhh sounds a mixed bag then. Yeah i really think with everyone performing at their peak we could score against anyone, but we've gotta find that peak first.

I think once we gel we'll be a real handful for most teams. Also I do think Lescott is a goer, just my personal opinion, but I can see it happening. Quite what that means for Richards/Clark is another matter. Real competition there IF he were to come though. As for the forward, I don't know enough about him?

So the 'Takeover' Yes someone had to say it haha! Do we think that's it? Randy is here for the season? Or could something happen mid season?

[haden18]

What have you done!! Lol. Don't think it'll be mid season, I think, no matter what anyone else says, that randy does care. I don't think he'd want to risk destabilising us midway, I think a deal could be agreed but we wouldn't change hands till next summer

Yeah that makes sense. The dream is still that we announce a takeover before the end of the window and then sign a few stars before the deadline

Dream? Is there a word stronger than that to describe the itty bitty chance of this happening

Find the Michu link strange, heard he'd got serious knee injury threatening retirement.

Michu was superb three seasons ago, what happened to him?

[Knighty5]

Pretty sure the injuries were what happened to him. Dont think he can shake of the knee injury. I heard he hardly trained at Swansea. I don't think the link is true IMO.
