dounavilla Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 It's very exciting to be linked with players that other top teams. The likes of Everton Southampton west ham we SHOULD be competing with these teams in the league and I hope all this speculation comes too light and we can start competing again where we belong ... Great isn't it? I think the thing I'm looking forward to most, is selling them to a Champions League side, after they've had one good season with us. Me too. Also us hearing about a 50p release clause in his contract if we lose to Watford by more than 3 goals ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

July: "Aston Villa bid £7m for Dennis Praet as they near the completion of £9m move for Idrissa Gueye." It does make you wonder. Were the press simply a million miles away or have circumstances changed? Because Gueye is deffo in Birmingham so no doubt about it we have upped the anti from previous years.

Vive_La_Villa Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 (edited) said it before that maybe the FA Cup final was the wake up call Lerner needed Or maybe he has nothing to do with future transfers. If 4 years of battling relegation along with a semi final defeat to a league two team wasn't enough of a wake up call I spit the FA Cup final made a difference.

Zatman Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 not saying he is or he isnt but I dont think anything on takeover is concrete from what i see. He rarely watched the Villa live as well and sitting next to the Prince who probably told him what wrong Could also have been promised a knighthood if he spent money by him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He rarely watched the Villa live as well and sitting next to the Prince who probably told him what wrong Could also have been promised a knighthood if he spent money by him There is no wakeup call. He is just weeks away from being rid of the club. He can go find his next sporting venture to make a mess of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 true but maybe he also realised that nobody wants to buy a club that has been poorly invested in for last few seasons and battling the drop as I said all pure speculation on my part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomh621 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 (edited) Apparently we've bid for Dennis Praet? Isn't he some highly rated youngster? Heard his name before… Praet tell …. Edited July 2, 2015 by tomh621 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly rated but apparently a bit of a praet in the dressing room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 The race for PraetAston Villa have joined the race to sign Dennis Praet, the highly rated Belgium international who is also attracting interest from Southampton and Everton. Praet is set to leave Anderlecht this summer for a fee in the region of £10m and Villa have made an inquiry about the possibility of making an offer for the midfielder. "made an enquiry about the possibility of making an offer" definitely sounds like the potentially concrete interest could be made solid in the next few weeks.

I won't be happy until I hear that Anderlecht are 'bracing themselves' for an offer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl the Pearl Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Imagine if we were able to bring in Gueye, Praet and Amavi without selling Delph or Benteke? We would actually be a decent side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermon Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Would love us to buy Jonathas from Each, would be relatively cheap replacement for Benteke, the guy is a beast and would love to have a Brazilian at Villa!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 Imagine if we were able to bring in Gueye, Praet and Amavi without selling Delph or Benteke? We would actually be a decent side. I don't think we'll get Amavi now. I also think Benteke'll go. Even so, Gueye and Praet would make a massive difference to our midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electronicmaji Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) I'm wondering now that we're seriously bidding if Jose Izquierdo would be a realistic target. Edited July 3, 2015 by electronicmaji Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
