Bunnski Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 If Lescott comes here and Clark goes to WBA then it will be a major worry, our centre backs would be Okore, Richards, Baker, Lescott and Crespo.....Dodgy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omariqy Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I'd be happy with Lescott or Young 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djemba_Villan Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 (edited) I could see Lescott being the one. It would even up the defence with a left footer meaning we'd have:- t Clark/Lescott with Richards/Baker/Okore. Also provides LB cover to Amavi I can see Baker going off on loan to Burnley actually.

penguin Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Lescott is nowhere near as bad as some are making out, he had a good season last year. Would be our best CB in my eyes, not that I'm particular excited by the prospect of signing him but it would be better than nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Lescott is a sack of shit. We should be trying to improve our defence, not sign players who would be 4/5th choice. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 That's Baker staying then! Heard on radio he just signed an extension? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd have been better than what he had there for the majority of last season. I'd rather spend big and get a top talent at centre back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeyAnty Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2015/07/31/report-aston-villa-eye-montpellier-midfielder-morgan-sanson/? Report: Aston Villa eye Montpellier midfielder Morgan Sanson Freddie Shires Profile Pic Freddie Shires @fshires 2 hours ago 10 0 10 0 The 20-year-old Frenchman is the latest Ligue 1 player to be linked with a move to Villa Park. View image | gettyimages.com Aston Villa’s French revolution shows no signs of slowing down, with Le Parisien reporting that the club are now keen on a move for Montpellier midfielder Morgan Sanson. Sanson, 20, joined Montpellier from Le Mans in June 2013 and has since made 70 total appearances for the club, while racking up seven goals and six assists. The France Under-21 international’s promising performances last season, when he helped the Ligue 1 outfit seal a seventh-place finish, saw him linked with the likes of Newcastle United and West Ham United in the winter [h/t talkSPORT], while Italian giants AC Milan were also reported to be interested in his signature [h/t calciomercato.it]. A summer move seemed to have been put on the backburner when he was ruled out for five months in mid-April after rupturing a knee ligament in his side’s 1-0 defeat at Toulouse, but that does not appear to have deterred Aston Villa due to his long-term potential. Sanson has also declared his interest in heading across the Atlantic in past, having been quoted by French football website Le10 Sport in February as declaring: "From a young, England has always fascinated me. I want to go there, but we'll see in the future.” A versatile prospect, Sanson lined up at various positions over the course of last season, seeing time as a No. 10, on the wing, in central midfield and even at right-back on a handful of occasions. Le Parisien’s report does not mention how much Montpellier would demand for his services but, with a contract running until 2018, a €10 million [£7.1 million] asking price has been rumoured [h/t calciomercato.it]. SEE ALSO: Aston Villa new boy not concerned about transition to English football He would not feel out of place were he to make the move to the Midlands in the near future either, having already seen Idrissa Gueye, Jordan Amavi, Jordan Ayew and, most recently, Jordan Veretout all join the claret and blues from Ligue 1 this summer. At this rate, the English-speaking players in the Villa dressing room will be getting plenty of free French lessons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
