Hearing Cambiasso is close to signing for AVFC will offer guidance and knowledge to Westwood in the CDM position if we opt to play a 4231 or 4222

West ham offering a lot more money than villa

2.) 13 Jul 2014
The experience what be great and but again ain't this a free transfer of a player that just wasnt thought to be good enough for the team he's already at?

3.) 13 Jul 2014
Likely to go to west ham or spurs I think. have heard they're both after him and with bigger wages on offer and the draw of London we'll probably lose out.

4.) 13 Jul 2014
Great signing if it happens

5.) 13 Jul 2014
What would he want a week?

6.) 13 Jul 2014
West ham don't have more money than Villa, Learner just decided not to spend what he's got and made from last year! Till where sold this will be the case

7.) 13 Jul 2014
Doubt this is happening as it looks Like Ki will become our 4th signing. can't see us getting both. Would love to see Cambiasso in a Villa shirt though

8.) 14 Jul 2014
Looks like 1 in 1 out with Luna on his way, ki will be a very welcome signing creative and can hold the ball well, just what we needs

9.) 14 Jul 2014
Ki seung yeung almost a done deal.

Once again we lose one of our unwanted players on a season long loan which now makes two players on loan that we were trying to get money in for to spend on new players. I find it all totally mystifying but then what do I know - I'm not Paul Lambert.
Add this to the nonsense with Hutton and Albion and heaven knows what is going on.
Clarrie blue.

Even if we did sell them we would get pittance for them so at least its wages freed up

Is it just me or has there been a systematic ignorance of the quality and age of player be linked here or brought in? albeit a club in a sale transitional period or not.

The only way Lerner can prove his statement that he returned in the interim to focus on Villa, is to invest in Young Quality players that will improve the team, without costing a fortune to preserve his asset pre-sale which the whispers are that the sale is closer that we think.

Before some of you slate my suggestion of of young quality, rem we have experience in abundance, if you doubt me look at our current squad including Cole/Richardson/Senderos to name a few. and one of these Joe is actually not bad but also not 22.

It's terribly sad that Lerner abandoned his faith in the young way forward thinking of Lambert, the idea was right the execution wrong which was totally based on the standard of players purchased, Lambert got all but 2 BigBen/Bacuna wrong.


In any other club he would have been sacked, however there is a bit of gratitude as he could have walked during this summer of disarray.

Now he has to get more importantly the quality spot on, every player that comes in now has to be better than the player in that position by a mile even if they are loans,

Defour/Kiyatoke/Atsu/Diaby/Abdularaham/Wellbeck/Zaha/Joe Cambell.

The options are endless even in our dire financial position, but the question is has "Last Legs" Lambert learnt his lesson and gets in quality additions loans or buys.

Outs-Hutton/Luna/Sylla/Luna/Bent/Gabby/Given/Karim/Herd/Nzogbia

I think that Cambiasso would be our best signing so far, if his wage demands aren't too high for Villa, as he was earning at least £130k per week when he was at Inter.

If Lambert fails to sign Cambiasso, then I think that he should try to sign either Defour or Parker.

Both Cambiasso and Defour are natural defensive midfielders. Parker is a natural central midfielder, but can play well as a defensive midfielder.

All three are very hard working players, and I would be glad of signing anyone of them. Any thoughts, lads?

14.) 19 Jul 2014
Defour again? this rubbish keeps getting posted, get real, its not going to happen and never was

15.) 21 Jul 2014
We've got quality young players coming through the youth system! Look at Grealish, Gardner, Robinson, Burke, Carruthers, Johnson, Donacien etc. Players like these won us the next gen series. We need some experienced players to come In around them and let them learn from them.

16.) 21 Jul 2014
Grealish again 'yawn yawn same sh*** different day we need proven quality not just occasionally good looking players

17.) 21 Jul 2014
Grealish hasn't been given a chance in the first team yet, he is young talent which is what you wanted right.?
