Use our rumours form to send us aston villa transfer rumours.

29 Jul 2016 23:49:37
Now I am confused we bought a goalkeeper 4 5 million pound promised in first team football so he turned and huge clubs now I hear Pantilimon is joining Aston Villa for two million pound now everybody knows on here i love this 6.8foot giant just don't get what's going on we promised both gk 1st team football so we have lied to 1 lol.



30 Jul 2016 00:09:12
Competition for places.



30 jul 2016 00:43:16
i suppose so but 1 wont be happy as they both want 1st team football i like pantilmon tho. mayb just mayb our owner might be splashing the cash. have wolves really bid 20 million 4 a benfica striker? this is crazy if true mate they can have gabby 4 half that lol!



30 Jul 2016 07:49:37
Although I think Gollini is a decent keeper I am not sure he is ready yet, having watched him on YouTube when he makes saves he still pushes them into the danger area! So RDM obviously see's him as the long term option.



30 Jul 2016 12:33:00
Pushes ball back into play my arse.



29 Jul 2016 23:33:33
Cant beleive wolves have bid 20 mil for talisca from benfica quality player.



29 Jul 2016 23:44:14
Paper talk. Would take with a huge pinch of salt.



30 Jul 2016 13:12:25
this one is happening mendax as much as it hurts me to say. he will be a wolves player.



30 Jul 2016 14:09:54
Yeah, right.



29 Jul 2016 23:24:56
Just seen we're about to sign Pantillimon from Watford think this would be a really good signing to have a ready made goal keeper.



29 Jul 2016 22:01:35
Wot are peoples thoughts on che adams from sheff utd i think he would be good signing . also ineacho from man city on loan would be good plus either mccormack or kodge. Then morrison or leon osman because he's on a free an good player.



29 Jul 2016 21:52:56
Beating inter milan at villa park and wimbledon 6-1 and the best of them all beating the blues five one . there's so many to pick from down the years.



29 Jul 2016 23:33:47
I remember beating Wimbledon 7-1 Tommy Johnson hlgettung a hat-trick. But for me 2-0 down to arsenal ro come back and win 3-2 big dion with the winner.



29 Jul 2016 17:03:20
I am personally quite sad that Guzan has left, he spent 8 years at the club was magnificent for 3 of those seasons, kept us up in all of them! I think he way he has been treated by some Villa fans is shocking.



29 Jul 2016 18:01:55
agreed.



29 Jul 2016 18:13:12
Make no mistake, if Guzan was not in our goal last season we wouldn't of gone down.
He cost us more points than any other player.
He than thought he could laugh at fans, swear at fans and abuse fans.
I thank him for those 3 years where he earnt his salary.
However, what about the other 5?



29 Jul 2016 19:26:04
My theory Flackie, is that the away to Leicester game got us relegated, if we'd have held on, would of been a different season altogether, for Leicester too?

UTV.



29 Jul 2016 19:42:54
i agree with that comment to. an like i said flakie he was good 4 us but last season the whole squad let the fans down but i had sum great memorys of him aswel. i duno wev u agree flackie u prob wnt as u never do lol but money as ruined the game they get so much money it becomes all they care about an as the game gets richer the poorier quality football we're getting because there not bothard!



29 Jul 2016 19:45:23
Totally agree mate.



29 Jul 2016 20:10:41
Although I agree with the Leicester game for me Sherwood has to take a lot of the blame as well we were 2-0 and decided to bring Ayew and Gestede on.



29 Jul 2016 20:18:42
Madness on his part

UTV.



29 Jul 2016 20:33:30
Mr. know. it. all
I would agree with what you say, if you said something I agreed with.
However, and these are crucial points mate.

We all have an opinion, are both entitled to it, and to give it, but once you have given it, why keep beating it, like its a drum?
We are allowed to agree, and discuss and heaven forbid, disagree, however to keep having to do it on every thread, post or news feed is both tedious, boring and if I'm honest annoying.
When giving your point, especially when aimed a certain person, if you post in capital letters, it means you are shouting! Once you raise you voice, in my view, your fare game.

If we all follow these simple rules, does it matter if we don't all sing from the same hymn sheet? Would be boring if we did, but I don't know about you, I watch a film once, read a book once, a newspaper once, (yes I can read! ) why would I want to read the same view, opinion, 'fact' or prediction over and over again?

But yes, I do think money has, is and will continue to ruin our game.
But I am glad we finally have a decent coaching set up, which I firmly believe has a plan regarding both this transfer window and the whole season, I love the fact we have a new passionate owner, rather than a reclusive clown. I do think his social media should tone down, but am grateful that he is happy to interact.
Agree, disagree, I don't care! But I bet this is the only time you read me saying this!



29 Jul 2016 21:13:30
Flackie, spot on mate. Best post ever 😊😊.



29 Jul 2016 21:45:07
lol i see a beer coming out of all this.



30 Jul 2016 00:50:59
I've defended Guzan in the past but it was absolutely time for a change - for both the player and the club. I hope he gets his form back.



30 Jul 2016 09:56:00
Boro also signed Valdes, so he's only going to be warming the bench.



29 jul 2016 17:01:09
hi people to lighten the mood i would like you to tell me and others what is your most fav aston villa game ever? i will give you mine aston villa 5 birmingham city 1 wow what a day! also just heard a strong rumour i don't know wev true or not as its off another site that we been linked with man utd striker keane his going for around 1million.



29 Jul 2016 17:10:39
It's got to be the 5-1 v the brum or the 2-0 down to Arsenal at half time with the Father Xmas Trinity roof incident and winning 3-2, Collymores best half of football at Villa

UTV.



29 Jul 2016 18:06:44
i remember both games very well at the time i was so shocked i was like that's not suppose to happen to santa but he still brought me my prezie because we came out at ht and stuffed arsenal. Do you remember the Tranmere Rovers game as well where we had to win to get to Wembley what a come back that was I went to tranmere and I thought it was all over but we turned it around at VIlla park.



29 Jul 2016 19:09:35
I wasn't at the Tranmere match, was a bit special though, and stuffing Man U in the final.

UTV.



29 Jul 2016 19:28:44

29 Jul 2016 19:50:40
now that sounds like a team i would love to have watched i just missed them years i was around with paul mcgrath dean Saunders an co loved big ron. 5 .1 tho against liverpool can't b bad gona youtube it now mate.



29 Jul 2016 19:51:55
May 6th 1957.
Aston Villa 2 Man Utd 1
Peter the great 2 goals.
Still got the Green mail and the Angus from that night.



29 Jul 2016 20:05:05
My 1st season was the season after Gray left, nevermind, couple of years later we were champions, that season the game that sticks in my mind was a midweek game against Albion, joined the queue for the Holte with my dad by the church, that's got to be at least 500 yards from there? and we missed my brothers wedding to see us against Liverpool, he's a knob and a nose anyways lol

UTV.



29 Jul 2016 20:41:46
I was at the Tranmere game. That was certainly best atmosphere I've experienced at Villa part
The game where we sent Coventry down was pretty good too (2nd half that is )



29 Jul 2016 20:49:10
We played Milan and won!
Was incredible!
We got there late, as my dad ran out of fuel! (Twat! )
I was 12, and the first year I really started to love football. Been going for years before that, but that season it all started to drop. And then Italia 90 was same year! Best World Cup in my life time.

How ever, a few years later we had Milan in Europe again. My dad again broke down! (Twat! ) we thought it was fate, we got there at half time, and although I don't remember the score, we lost.
Was the first time football refused me to tears!
Sadly not the last.



29 Jul 2016 22:00:06
The Athletico Madrid defeat in the uefa cup quarter finals. We threw the kitchen sink at them, lee hendrie had a glorious chance at the end of the match to win it. Best atmosphere iv ever experienced at vp.



30 Jul 2016 14:50:59
That game finch, I went to get tickets for after work about a week or so or before it, saw Brian Little leaving in his Range Rover speeding off, I got home and on the news he'd just quit!

UTV.



31 Jul 2016 19:19:14
Finch i Was there It was awesome! Lee Hendries best game In a Villa shirt and Collmore scored a thunderbolt from 20 yards In off the crossbar. 38,000 Villa fans attended In 39,500 gate and Atmosphere was electric.



29 Jul 2016 14:51:20
RDM just said Ayew going nowhere on SSN.



29 Jul 2016 16:55:11
Would be great if Ayew stays.



29 Jul 2016 14:16:32
Toon are in for knockaert from Brighton. I feel this is a player who we should be competing for.



29 Jul 2016 16:53:35
I agree with this flakie good player

If I was RDM I would look at getting rid of the usual suspects but also clarke and Kozak

Then adding the following

Knockaert - Brighton
Lewis Dunk - Brighton
Cyrus Christie - Derby
Will Hughes - Derby
Jonathan Kodjia - Bristol city
Nakhi Wells - Huddersfield

Adding the above championship proven players all good quality would I believe ensure promotion.



29 Jul 2016 21:49:53
Yea dunk had a fantastic season. Not sure about wells I think a lot of villa fans will rate him because of his Bradford exploits against us. Would much rather go for the forest striker who's name I'm not even going to try an spell!



29 Jul 2016 22:17:25
Your probably right finch Assombalonga is a good shout. wells for Bradford was on fire against us . he has pace and can finish and backed it up for Huddersfield last season . If we could get him for 5-6 million it could be worth while.



29 Jul 2016 13:06:19
Id take blacket an forsue menser at rb easily wilson would be good signing to.



29 Jul 2016 19:49:25
If we got that menser I would be well happy young wants to get forward so much pace that he can recover if he loses his man really like the kid but couldn't see him coming to us but I hope.



29 Jul 2016 11:55:17
Good luck Brad guzan apart from last season he was a wonderful goal keeper I still remember that Sunderland game where we reach the cup final it was well worth the 4 hour trip to watch him save all them one and one's and penalties we did miss treat him he deserved to play in a final! people seem to be going but if lescot an gabby stay the poison will still be here try an sort somethink out rdm! any idea of incomings? xia get off twitter you silly man ellis never said much but the club was ran propa. would anybody take sako off west ham he wants out an west ham like ayew.



29 Jul 2016 13:07:47
With regard to getting rid of the deadwood, I have a fews questions :
What do you think RDM isn't doing that he should be?
What makes you think that he isn't doing what you think he should be?
What would you do different?
(taking into account the length of contracts the players you mention have and the likelihood of them getting anywhere close to those contracts anywhere else )



29 Jul 2016 13:58:21
If he can't get rid of them tell them to stay home they will soon get bored an demand to leave.



29 Jul 2016 15:54:44
Mr know nothing you said on may posts you wanted all the deadwood and troublemakers gone yet you are saying good luck to him? You change your tune more times than a orchestra!



29 Jul 2016 16:26:22
Do you think Gabby gives a stuff about whether he plays again or not when the options are sit tight and keep your £60 k a week or moan or move on and get a fraction of that?
You are just stating what you would like to happen regardless of how likely that is likely to be.
And you've still not answered my questions
RDM has to live in the real world and deal with real problems. Harder still, he has to come up with workable solutions rather than petulant actions which would probably only serve to make a toxic situation more so.



29 Jul 2016 16:53:20
how did guzan cause trouble he lost confidence an had a awful season he didn't miss training go to Dubai smoke some funny stuff or send any twits from his arse! he lost form other than last season he was our player of the year so just to be clear TROUBLE CAUSES ARE LESCOT OKORE GABBY BACUNA RICHARDS! AND HE hasn't GOT RID OF A SINGLE 1 OF THEM BECAUSE NOBODY WANTS THEM SO THE BEST THING HE CAN DO AS A MANAGER IS TELL THEM TO STAY AT HOME!



29 Jul 2016 17:16:32
Your half right about Guzan, what sticks in everyone's mind is him laughing at the fans after the Wycome cup match, doesn't mean he's a troublemaker in the dressing room though. He just lost form when he should be at his peak for a keeper over the last 2 seasons. In hindsight keeping Given would of been better, wouldn't have stopped us from going down because of the jokers in front of him

UTV.



29 Jul 2016 17:16:41
So Guzan never swore at villa fans during the cup game last season neither did he while being sub started spitting chewing gum out of his mouth with lescott to see who can get the furthest in the same game? or was that me imagining things?



29 Jul 2016 17:43:22
Oh right, now you've spelled it out on big capitals with an exclamation mark, it makes total sense
Cheers.



29 Jul 2016 18:10:06
Hang on guys, he used capitals, he must be right.
But unless you didn't understand exactly what he said, don't worry, he will post same things on the next 5 threads.


(Guzan wasn't a trouble maker as such, although his ability to swear at fans, and play a game with the Klingon and chewing gum was ill advised, Guzan just wasn't good enough when serious competition left.
If given had not been got rid of, he wouldn't of played the way he did. His problem is, or was is that he didn't care. He knew that no matter what, he would be fine. And to me that's almost worse! )



29 Jul 2016 19:17:15
If Sherwood actually made that bid for Bergovic, it told Guzan that he wasn't wanted, he dealt with it the wrong way, myself I'd of went 'I'll show 'em! ' but he went to the other extreme and couldn't be arsed. He's gone now, let's move on, get behind Gollini and don't jump on him 1st mistake he makes

UTV.



29 Jul 2016 20:43:09
I'd go along with that Allyp1972.



29 Jul 2016 11:22:38
Hi the only bidding war will be on gana's wages as a release clause is a release clause.



29 Jul 2016 10:19:59
Man U apparently axing upto 9 players, some of them might be worth while. Long shot but Januzai on loan, option to buy? Would be a statement and if Traore is injured a lot they can alternate. Also maybe mcNair/ Borthwick-johnson and Pereira?

Any thoughts?



29 Jul 2016 10:49:35
januzai is already in talks with Sunderland. Wilson blackett would be worth a look.



29 Jul 2016 07:37:32
Hope we get mccormac an ravel morrison be great signins also wouldn't mind charlie musunda on loan from chelsea amazing young player was at betis last year also loftus cheek would be worth a punt to.



29 Jul 2016 04:53:48
This is supposed to be a rumours site not discussion digression sessions as most of the posts contain no rumours just what's in the news after its been reported. Comon ppl. This used to be a better rumours site.
Rumour question : Ravel Morrison - a wind up by him? Heard nothing for a week or more.
Rumour : We are going to trigger Ross Macs release clause Monday. Sweet huh.
A.



29 Jul 2016 06:13:42
Morrison 90%
mccormack 10% he will sign for Norwich by Saturday. medical today.
bamford 75% we are getting close to a loan for him.



29 Jul 2016 06:36:08
Kingvilla. welcome back!



29 Jul 2016 09:25:40
At the risk of being a pedant, this is the Banter section of the site supposed to be for general knockabout exchanges - for the Rumours bit, click on the 'Rumours' link above! Correct me if I am wrong one of the Ed's .



29 Jul 2016 00:23:23
with guzan going gauye an sinclair look to be going how many do aston villa need to be a good team? a lot of you don't really rate a lot of last years team so if you was the manager how many would you buy? also ayew linked with west ham 10 million!
