samjp26 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Quote Lambert, who is having to wheel and deal and rely on Bosmans to strengthen his squad, is hoping to sign former Arsenal defender Philippe Senderos on a Bosman. The 29-year-old is a free agent after leaving Fulham via a brief spell in Spain with Valencia. He is due to play for Switzerland on Tuesday in a friendly against Peru and Villa hope to clinch his signing later in the week. The experienced stopper would potentially form a new defensive partnership with Ron Vlaar and compete with fit-again Jores Okore. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/aston-villa-chase-roy-keane-3638096 Will be announced after the Swiss friendly, he can speak 8 languages.

skarroki Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I think if this is a signal of intent I am going to jump ship now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samjp26 Posted June 2, 2014 Author Share Posted June 2, 2014 I think if this is a signal of intent I am going to jump ship now Take it as a signal of there being no money until a takeover happens. Shoestring is an overstatement to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djdabush Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I'd have him as back up over Baker and Clark but that's about it. This is the reality of us being in limbo, shopping from the bargain bin at Woolworths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harris21 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Very uninspiring but a very real indication of where we are as a club right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powell91 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 would have him over baker every day of the week but would just wish we would get a buyer soon so we dont have to put up with this bargain basement bollocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IwishIwasalivein1982 Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 That's what we need. More defenders who aren't very good. Clark and Baker probably won't be getting any playing time against Okore and Vlaar so why would we get another one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briny_ear Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 We suddenly seem to be giving a lot of credence to stories in the Mirror which is normally despised as a totally inaccurate web of fantasy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonLax Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Okore and Vlaar are our first choice next season. If Senderos is willing to be a back up then he will be a useful addition, surprised he's still only 29. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
