omariqy Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Mat Kendrick said earlier that Villa were hoping to finalise the deal tomorrow or Friday. Chill you baked beans. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomh621 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I'm guessing this must be our mystery signing to be announced alongside Helenius this week. I should hope not! Lambert will have some extra cash after offloading Bent and maybe Bannan, Delfounso, ireland which hopefully he will put towards a strong midfielder who we dont have to google to find out about. the reports on Belhanda have been quiet of late, he's fantastic player who is young and very talented (although with a big price tag). and might not be too far out of our reach if were the only PL club to be interested (despite villa saying they havent made a bid), according to himself and Montpelliers manager. maybe im being too optimistic but if lambert has a secret signing... maybe just maybe hes being patient.

Nath182 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I hope it's done on Friday, I've got a stadium tour booked for Friday. A slight chance we might bump into him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
becks1876 Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Can't be the last, we still need a goalkeeper and a right back at the very least, if all goes to plan and we shift the likes of Ireland,Given,Bent and a few others, them we could well see another 4 maybe 5 new players coming in. After this week Lambert will take his holiday till 1st July and then after shifting the dross we could be in for another exciting week before the friendly's start.

Love the gif mate, any chance of doing one of Megatron turning into a handgun? Quite possible the greatest magic trick ever witnessed on television Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Can't be the last, we still need a goalkeeper and a right back at the very least... I don't think we're that desperate for a right-back. Herd can play there if Lowton get's injured. I think a creative attacking midfielder and a goalkeeper are the two main priorities for us now. I'd also like another CDM, though I know we have a fair few CMs at the moment. Flog Bannan and get a CDM, Sylla isn't a true CDM in my book so we're still lacking in that department.

LondonLax Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 A keeper isn't even a priority if Givin doesn't find a new club. We are not going to sign one until he leaves I'd say. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanBalaban Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I'd say the team has energy and pace, but what we're lacking now is that link man to bring it all together. The ol' cultured playmaker if you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phumfeinz Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I bet Okore could do a decent job too if such an emergency arose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyAnty Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Will be interesting to see whether it is Luna or Bennett who lines up in the first match? opinions? ALSO, what is interesting is number 3 is available... who will get it?!I suspect Lambert will decide this based on who performs better during preseason.Why not on the bases on how Bennett performed last season? Because Luna may turn out to be even worse! He might, but you got to go with what you currently know. Besides it would be hard for him to be any worse than Bennette was last year.

Steep learning curve for Bennett last season, but there's a player in there for sure. (Rightly) copped a lot of flak at times, but definitely improved as the season drew on. He'll be a lot better for the experience this time around and would still expect him to be vying for 1st choice at LB. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
