K-Carlsen

The tweet itself might be a result of the thread on the blackpool forum for all I know (link to b'pool forum on previous page), they seem to believe that something is happening. First reported as a loan move by someone in connection with the club, then reported as a permanent move on twitter today.

Vermaelen is out for Arsenal as well

Blackpool have agreed a fee with #AstonVilla for striker Nathan Delfouneso #BFC1887 #AVFC

On his way back to Blackpool?

If it's true, I hope it's a permanent deal with a sell-on clause included in the deal (just in case...).

Should end up with a article about it here IF that is the case.

Seems like Lambert has been after this "type of player" a while, but not landed the right one yet. Dempsey, Coutinho etc.

Hulk the footballer? Or the actual hulk (benteke)?

I'm norwegian as well bro. But I agree, denmark is a liberal beauty in comparison to the otherwise conservative scandinavia.

 

 

who speaks the language?

whats he saying?

 

In short:

 

* He hasn't heard anything from club or agent, only read it in the news

* Would be interested in trying himself in a club like Villa

 

This. Man trying to decode danish is so hard, what is wrong with your guys language. Beyond **** up lol. Sorry but it feels so cryptic at times

 

Lol. 'decoding' is a spot on description of it. It's kind of like norwegian, only encrypted with weird sounds and expressions. And they start every sentence, no matter what the context is, with: "jammen åsså...".

Anyways, back to topic

Seems like he would definately would be interested in a move, but that he isn't going to focus on it until a bid is accepted.

* Repeating that his focus is on the Denmark game atm.

 

Should be noted that the Danish League is the strongest in scandinavia, regardless of what anyone else will try to tell you 

 

Yeah that makes sense..

 

Is it:

 

1. Danish 

2. Norwegian 

3. Swedish 

4. Finnish 

5. Icelandic 

 

?

 

Think the swedish league is a little bit better than the Norwegian atm. Other than that, I agree with the rest. 

 

Lol yeah, taking my family genetics into account I should get a hefty pay rise within the next 5-10 years as well

 

But seriously, 70k for absolutely nothing. What a joke. MUST GET RID - ASAP!

 

I wouldn't say "absolutely nothing"....

 

.. but I would say no more than we get from Bannan, Holman or KEA.

 

Refreshingly, Ireland is exactly the type of transfer target that Lambert will ignore, so it's just a matter of time before these wasters are off the books for good.

 

Agreed, that was a little strong. I know he has played a game here and there. Checked his stats and he have actually played 779 minutes for us this season.  

That's still £3594,35 paid per minute of playing football, though. Rather poorly as well.

70k

That's 70k for being bald, basically.

I'd like to see us go after Matej Vydra from Udinese. Scored 20 goals on loan at Watford this season. Only have one year left of his contract and find himself in the pecking order behind Muriel & De Natale at his club. Shouldn't cost a lot. Maybe £4m or so?

I think it's pretty certain that Benteke leaves for a bigger club within few years, my concern is that if he leaves NOW that might influence Weimann to do the same...

Would obviously hate to see him go, but I feel it's inevitable that he does leave sooner or later...

If we can get Wilfred Bony in as his direct replacement and still be left with a hefty profit in the middle of these two deals (to improve other areas) it would not be too bad. I feel that it is better to improve "the unit" now then attempting to build a team around someone that probably will leave next summer anyway. 

...................Given..................

............Vlaar......Dunne..........

Lowton.........N'Zonzi.........Bennett.....

...Ireland....El Ahmadi...Adam...........

.................Zarate.....Bent.....................

IMO

Too vulnerable at the back without three in the middle. And need a more typical DM type then El Ahmadi, which should be used as the box-to-box in front.

Hope so. Still early days for him and he looks to have potential.

With Martin though, I remember him as almost being a defence on his own, with the three supplementing "employees" by his side.

Not related to transfers.... but DAMN I miss Martin Laursen... Imagine having that type of leader to step back in to sort out the defence...

James Nursey saying expect things to happen this week, a change in tune of what he previously said of one in one out!

No pun intended, mate. But I could have ITK'ed that...

It is clear that we need more players, it seems like the intent to buy is there and this is the last week that buying is possible. You don't exactly need a "foot inside" to make that suggestion.

In fact, I can take the ITK further: The player(s) we're getting have two legs, ten fingers, is a male and have.... a head. Can't say anything more.

Could it be that we are on to some kind of deal with stoke with Hutton/Dunne going one way and K. Jones going the other?

Wouldn't mind it.

Pretty sure Richard is just **** with us.

Pretty sure you're correct on that 8)

Its Penry isnt it?

Feck me, it is...

No clue then.
