VillaChris Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Loan to end of the season. Few papers running it so someone's been tipped off. May be at the game tonight (that's me speculating). http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/aston-villa-transfer-news-debuchy-10744251 Quote Aston Villa are close to completing the loan signing of Arsenal right-back Mathieu Debuchy. The 30-year-old is thought to have agreed a temporary switch until the end of the season after deciding against a move away from England. talian giants Roma were keen on the French international but Villa boss Remi Garde has promised him regular game-time to help boost his chances of featuring for his country in the forthcoming European Championships. Villa need cover at right-back with Alan Hutton currently injured and Debuchy is seen as the ideal fit. Garde watched the stopper in action during his time as Lyon boss. He made over 250 appearances for Lille before moving to Newcastle in 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lp_villa830 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Can he beat the first man with a cross? If so a fantastic upgrade on what we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) I thought he was more likely to move to Roma but he would be a very good signing for us. Could it be that our boss got his friend Wenger to twist his arm for us? Edited January 16, 2016 by John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Would be an excellent short term move if we can pull it off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan-scott Posted January 16, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted January 16, 2016 But but... What about the Scottish Cafu? Debuchy will be good solid addition, hopefully the first arrival of a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdulaziz1 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Good signing. We are really suffering from having Hutton as a starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Cracking signing. I don't think he's Arsenal-good and as much as I like Bacuna he's certainly an upgrade over anyone we have. Will waltz into our defence. Plus he's clearly up for playing ahead of the euros. Nice one Rémi et al. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alreadyexists Posted January 16, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted January 16, 2016 I think it's a good signing if we pull it off. As DDID said, I also like Bacuna, and Debuchy is definitely an upgrade. Plus I've always thought Bacunas talents were better suited further up the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Wonder if we could flog Hutton now. Is there any more team than us that is run by people who don't follow football or haven't watched him since his time in Rangers who might be swayed by him being the Scottish Cafu and all?

As mentioned in another thread QPR seem terribly run, almost as bad as us, so they might be up for paying him 50k a week on a 5 year deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we could flog Hutton, Lescott, Guzan, Nzog, Senderos and Gabby this would be a great transfer window, and if we added Sane, Debuchy and Remy (even on loan), this would be the best window since the Brian Little Draper and Milosevic window. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted January 16, 2016 Moderator Share Posted January 16, 2016 A loan from Wenger was always quite likely and this would be a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
