omariqy Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 According to Daily Mail, Ba's move to us is dependant on Mangala moving to Man City or Chelsea. If he doesnt move then Ba will come to either us or Sunderland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chillinvillan Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Sorry guys but do we have any decent prospects or are we just picking at straws as try as I may its all gone very quite on the transfer front? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morley_crosses_to_Withe Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I'd carry Milner down here on my own back from Man City if we could sign him. That 09/10 season, when he got 10 or so goals for us and something like 15 assists, will live in my memory as one of the best season's I've ever seen from a Villa player. He's still a quality player and would improve us no end. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForeroGabe Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I do hope we bid for Fischer. Or maybe a bid for Kiyotake? You never know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Con Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 According to Daily Mail, Ba's move to us is dependant on Mangala moving to Man City or Chelsea. If he doesnt move then Ba will come to either us or Sunderland. We won't be in for another central defender. Okore, Vlaar, Baker, Clark. The position is double covered. Anyway, who was the last player Lambert sign who was also linked to another Premier League club in the week before he signed for us? There hasn't been one! Lambert signs players who are not on the radar of the other Premier League clubs. The fact Sunderland is mentioned proves to me this story is nonsense. It's probably Ba's agent inventing competition to generate a higher salary in the event he can move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I would be very surprised if we were in for a centre half. Okore, Baker Clark and Vlaar are all capable and in Lambert's plans in my view, if more than 2 are out, it's just tough titties really, throw in Herd or lowton in an emergency. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Con Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Chelsea was in January and had already been turned down by Okore.

I know Arsenal had scouted Benteke but it seemed to me we plucked Benteke from nowhere, he would have stayed in the Belgium league until January 2013 if it wasn't for Lambert.

That shows Benteke had interested Fulham but it doesn't show there was a media rumour of Fulham and Aston Villa interested in him before we signed him. I don't think there was any rumour about anyone signing Benteke before hand. BTW I liked this part of the article... The Fulham manager has a soft spot for Villa. In 1982, when he was playing for midlands rivals West Brom, Jol sat with the Villa fans for their European Cup final triumph over Bayern Munich in Rotterdam. 'I saw Aston Villa winning the European Cup,' Jol said. 'I was at West Brom and they are big rivals so I kept a low profile as I couldn't get another ticket. I kept my head down with a cap on. I was at the back of the stand. 'It is a big, big club in Birmingham, number one there, and I always liked them.
