  1. Have to say its suspiciously quiet this evening from the usual tap in merchants from the last few days who are all claiming this to be in the bag for City.
  2. Its highly likely I will still be here checking at 2am. Absolutely bonkers this is.
  3. Absolutely no way he would be there with the risk of injury if we were on the brink of accepting 100 million for him surely.
  4. They wouldn't have bid if he hasn't given them the puppy dog eyes mate, it is pretty obvious if we accept he will go. The only reason he is staying is if we don't sell. Clearly at that point he will sign a new deal as it will be more money but it won't be because he doesn't want to leave.
  5. Something a bit fishy about this one
  6. I hope not but personally I can't shake the idea we have gone so quiet in the transfer market because we are waiting to see what happens.
  7. Yeah you are right. Unused sub on Wednesday against Costa Rica
  8. Doesn't appear to be in the squad for the friendly they are currently playing. Absolutely no idea if a lot of first reamers are left out also.
  9. Seems to me like Tom Collomoose has whipped it in from the right and Preece has got a toe on it but the keeper has kept it out, now we are all waiting for Percy to smash in the rebound.
  10. Yeah cant argue with much of that, I guess its about finding the likes of Buendia and Martinez elsewhere before we pay 50 million for them. Hopefully once we solidify our prem place which we seem to have done we can look to take a few more risks like Alvarez. I am the same though I absolutely love an exciting signing like that.
  11. I think we have scouted very well recently. Watkins, Traore, Cash, Targett, Konsa, Mings, Martinez, Mcginn, Luiz all better players with arguably a higher value for most if not all of them than what we paid. We have built a whole new team in recent times and done it extremely well in my view. We have now added Buendia and Ash Young to that so far and I don't doubt a couple more will come through the door. But overall I would be happy if we just continue our own path and scouting the way we have been. The way we seem to be scouting at youth level for example could well pay dividends with a little patience. Of course we would all like players in early and it gets frustrating at times but to single out our scouting policy and change it I think would be detrimental to our journey. As ultimately thats what it is. Looking through Leicesters transfers recently they have definitely had a fair few that have bombed aswell. Which is the case in every club in England. Although Leicester probably one of the better ones.
  12. I think it was the "we are in trouble" comment that comes across as negative. Clearly we still have a good squad with some great talent.
  13. Brilliant player. My lad is 2 and a half and I am desperate for him to get to see Jack play for Villa. I think if Jack could get a winners medal at the euros with England it may well scratch an itch for winning something and he can focus on a career at Villa.
  14. 250m and 1 pound is what I heard
  15. They really are. The composure these people show in these situations is incredible.
