Popular Post Deisler123 Posted August 22, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2016 A few posters asked why Tony said this. Let me explain this - Drogba had links with a Chinese football club (Shanghai Shenhua) a few years ago and he played for the club alongside Anelka. He didnt get paid (you may remember from my post about Chinese football, that owner is an idiot) and sued the club on FIFA court. Xia simply meant to point out Drogba's bad experience a few years ago with a Chinese club and a Chinese owner. That's all. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uth is younger and a better striker!! Uth would be excellent for that Iceland chant - the Viking clap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan-scott Posted August 22, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 22, 2016 From Gregg Evans, says Yedlin more likely than de Laet as we couldn't agree a fee for him. Yedlin at rb is an exciting prospect for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An abbreviation (from Latin brevis, meaning short) is a shortened form of a word or phrase. It consists of a group of letters taken from the word or phrase. For example, the word abbreviation can itself be represented by the abbreviation abbr., abbrv. or abbrev. In strict analysis, abbreviations should not be confused with contractions, acronyms, or initialisms, with which they share some semantic and phonetic functions, though all four are connoted by the term "abbreviation" in loose parlance.[1]:p167An abbreviation is a shortening by any method; a contraction is a reduction of size by the drawing together of the parts. A contraction of a word is made by omitting certain letters or syllables and bringing together the first and last letters or elements; an abbreviation may be made by omitting certain portions from the interior or by cutting off a part. A contraction is an abbreviation, but an abbreviation is not necessarily a contraction. Acronyms and initialisms are regarded as subsets of abbreviations (e.g. by the Council of Science Editors). They are abbreviations that consist of the initial letters or parts of words. Expecting strict analysis in a Transfer Speculation thread in the VillaTalk main forum? What's next? Wanting a world class striker? :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest av1 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Still think Nakhi Wells would be a good signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 It's most likely Hernandez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) Last I heard Yedlin was being strongly linked to Newcastle. We've been linked with Iorfa but I'm not sure he's as attacking as Di Matteo would like our right-back to be, but Wolves to have two rated players in that position so maybe would be willing to let one go.
