I said it about a week ago.
Hiroshi Kiyotake.
If we were in for a Japanese midfielder it's probably this guy.
23 years old, good at going forward, plays in the Bundesliga, has a decent assist/goal per game ratio and could be picked up for a few million.
Always wanted a technical Japanese midfielder at Villa. They're free kick wizards usually.
Think you will find I brought his name up.
Sorry I must have missed it, large thread
I mentioned it last week as well, he'd be a cracking signing but probably not even on the radar. He's only finishing his first year in Germany.
I was informed over 10 days ago by someone I have known connected to Villa for over 25 years that we had made firm enquiries on Kiyotake and an offer has been made. But we will have to wait and see how this develops. Not claiming to be any sort of ITK. Just passing on some info that I was told over 10 days ago. Been on our radar a while apparently.

SPECULATION : PL 'apparently' has called Belhandas agents bluff with a 'take it or leave it ' offer - source says he will accept. #avfc
Surely it would be a take it or leave it offer to the Club, not the agent. The agent would become involved once an offer is on the table. My brain is frazzled today though. Hung over.

I think we will surprise a few big teams next season, even early on in the season.
I am going to predict between 9th-11th. But we MUST keep Benteke to achieve this.
-
Great news. Nothing against the guy. Worked hard enough, but simply not good enough. Wish him all the best. The cull begins.
Now, onto Given, Bent, Ireland, Bannan and Hutton please.
-
Holman has joined Al Nasr in the UAE league.
Great news. Worked hard for the team, but simply not good enough for me. Will make a small profit on him as well. The cull begins.

Hoping for this formation (not sure on Bacuna yet but dont think Westwood + Delph/Sylla is strong enough)
Guzan
Lowton Vlaar Okore Luna
Westwood Bacuna
Weimann Murphy Gabby
Benteke
Personally think we'll see:
Guzan
Lowton Vlaar Okore Luna
Sylla
Westwood Delph
Murphy
Weimann Benteke
If Bacuna starts, he will not be adopted in that role. He likes to get forward. I'd see him more in the Murphy role, but I am hoping that we do eventually get Murphy, and then you can look to just add either Delph or Sylla into Bacuna's position.

I think this is how we may begin but with the idea of a competitive squad all the places are up for grabs and throughout the pre-season friendlies we'll see all sorts of combinations and whoever deserves their place will get it.
Guzan
Lowton
Vlaar
Okore
Luna
Westwood
Sylla
Delph
Weimann
Benteke
Agbonlahor SUBS
Siegrist
Bennett
Baker
Bacuna
Tonev
Helenius And then N'Zogbia/Gardner/Possible new signing/Etc may well fit in to that empty slot on the bench to compete for a place.
I also think they'll be a fair few, Bowery and Carruthers etc out on loan playing "Man's Football"
That bench looks a lot healthier doesn't it. Granted, untested players but looks decent to me. Apart from Bennett of course.
My team for 1st game of season would be:-
=====================Guzan=================================
Lowton===========Okore========Vlaar=====================Luna
=============Westwood======Sylla============================
=====================Tonev=================================
Weimann=============Benteke===========================Gabby
SUBS:
Steer?,Bacuna, Baker, Helenius, Delph.

Right apart from those released already or out of contract, which player will be the first one sold from now do you think?
Darren Bent.
EDIT: Scrap that, I reckon Given.
-
On SSN now.

This is the dawning of the age of Helenius.
HEEELEEEENIUSSSSSSSSSS
You could argue that it could be a combination song with Luna. 'when the moon is in the 7th house'
-
Welcome Helenius. Excited to see what this kid can do for us.
-
I can see us signing a very good AM. Dont think it will be Belhanda. You never know though, would love either Belhanda or Praet.
No chance on either. Would love either as well but isn't happening. That Praet link was very flimsy as well made up by some guy on twitter which subsequently appeared on a Belgium transfer rumours site.

So when is he signing then?
Tomorrow or today in 25 minutes.
-
Unnamed premier league club have bid 8 million for vydra. Wouldn't be a shock if it's us
Where's that from Villaonsea?
Wasn't there talk yesterday that Chelsea were the surprise team looking to buy him? Could be them.
-
Called Okore as well - props :3
He just nicked it off Facebook apparently. But it is his own source now.

Could this man be #avfc bound. According to a senior source at a reputable media company #avfc pic.twitter.com/2Blx9rePCt
His name is Dennis Suarez plays for city:
Attacking Midfielder.
I know i keep posting stuff from this twatter shite, but its only speculation at the end of the day.
Stop it. He hasn't got one thing right.
Chill its a speculation thread. Would it make you feel better if i said:
Word on the street is we're looking at a player called Dennis Praet.
I'm perfectly chilled thanks. Just stating the obvious. No more, no less.

The funny thing is accounts like AVFC Transfer Tweet haven't "revealed" any of our transfer targets so far. Not one. He/She have only reported things after foreign newspapers have. I really don't know why they dont just give up.
It's a feeling of wanting to be loved......

It was a user called Emenyt I think and Julie B retweeted it.
But remember, Julie told him.

I would love for us to try and sign Scott Parker if he is available. It is all well and good with all these unknown potential gems, but we all want to place high in the table next season and we desperately need some experience and grit, and hopefully from the same player. I am a firm believer of the fact that young players need guidance from the older players or else they will not develop like they could, just think about learning from Parker, Giggs, Scholes, Vieira, Terry, Lampard et al instead of just playing with guys you also played with in the Reserves. If you are good enough, you are old enough - of course - but we put a lot of faith in young players developing into Premier League-material instantly, and we saw how that turned out last season. Mixing signings like Okore with a Parker or two is the right way to go, even though it means we have to fork out a bit of wages here and there. We can obviously afford it with all the outgoing players (on high wages) and the new TV-deal.
Really? Scott Parker is shocking now.. How anyone can think he would fit into our new philosophy baffles me. Ok, maybe we could do with one or two experience heads, but Scott Parker is on his way out. His legs are not what they were and he just simply put, would not help us moving forwards and would generally slow our play down. Stay away for me.

Transfer Speculation (Summer 2013)
in Hall of Fame
Posted
Cannot believe that Crewe only want £750,000 for Murphy. If we were ever interested in him, surely we would act now.
