Condimentalist Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 No chance of us signing Guidetti on a permanent deal, I can't believe people are even suggesting it. A loan maybe, but I'm not sure it's hugely in our interests to do that at this stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoughboroughLion Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Concerning Guidetti, I know little about him, but he seems the right kind of player we should be looking at. Also, if PL has scouted Feynoord last season and not looked at the possibility of signing him, I would be very worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omariqy Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 KK said it was Fletcher but he thinks we wont go for him as he is too expensive. KK apparently is a football journalist. Express and Star led with the story this morning. I.e. I think KK works for the express and star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 KK Football tweeted... "Don't rule out a Villa move for the one who makes arrows. Could be too expensive mind. #avfc" Really rather confusing. He has also said we haven't made a move for Defoe, yet. However, I would imagine he'll want to stay in London anyway, which points to QPR. Funny you should mention Defoe as a friend of mine said that he checked into the hotel she works at down Birmingham this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrenm Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I was at the 2 Olympic matches at the City of Coventry stadium yesterday and decided to do a bit of scouting. First game, Mexico v Gabon. Pretty much anyone from Mexico is worth a shout. They were all comfortable on the ball but most had poor decision making. Dos Santos was the best player, but their forward line in general was excellent. Javier Aquino may be worth a shout, plays at Cruz Azul and is 22. He'll be coming to Europe fairly soon I would have thought. In the second game, South Korea were basically a team of Jii-Sung Parks. No-one really stood out but they worked as a team and were dedicated. For Switzerland I was disappointed not to see Benjamin Siegrist play. Out of the middle 2, the game seemed to pass Fabian Frei by, but the no.8 Amir Abrashi was excellent and bossed the midfield. He plays for Grasshopper and is also only 22. I'd be really pleased with either of the above 2, I just hope we get there first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Genuine question... How many people have actually seen guidetti play? What is his style? I've seen a lot if comments of people saying we should definitely sign him, but is this just on the basis that he scored a few last yr??? I've never heard of him (like kea and Holman) and therefore can't comment on how good a signing he would be I've seen quite a lot of Guidetti in the Swedish Allsvenska with Brommapojkarna, in Feyenoord, the Swedish U 21 and his game in the national side and i rate him very high. He's an intelligent player and has a good workrate, when you watch you can see he has quality, more so than any other player at his age in Sweden. Just like with Ibrahimovic you can tell there's something special about him. Now that does not mean he'll turn out to be a fantastic player, but i think he very well might be. I'd be over the moon if we sign him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted July 30, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted July 30, 2012 Surely Defoe will be West Ham bound? Would hate him at Villa Park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Surely Defoe will be West Ham bound? isnt he not liked there after his exit plus AVB said will only sign 1more striker and club is down to 2 at moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted July 30, 2012 Author Moderator Share Posted July 30, 2012 Ah it must almost be August we are being linked with Defoe, I'm sure he is due to check into the Belfrey any day now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
