Dortmund had scouts at the chelsea game watching benteke and he's now top of their transfer list to replace lewandoski. Will the money tempt lerner and lambert and will champions league football tempt benteke away? I wasnt all that worried about him leaving for arsenal or tottenham but I can see him being up for dortmund!

Personally I think benteke would prefer to stay in England, unless Madrid or barca come calling, so I think whether it's with us or not, he'll be playing in England next season

Klopp won't upset his mate Lambert.
£40m he'll be sold for if anyone wants to pay that out after just 1 season in the EPL.

Di santos, very talented, but would PL want another lazy player when he's trying to get rid of Ireland an Bent who a "lazy" apparently? Can't see it happening
Agree9
Disagree3
No he was not properly cultivated by Rednap and not given a proper chance just like taarabt and boateng but he has been playing well in spain and deserves another chance
Agree4
Disagree4
I watch a lot of real mallorca matches could see dos santos as a decent shout but am sure its not him the villa are looking at, more like the cm midfielder Pina who is being scouted by a lot of teams in spain

Would be nice to sign cresswell to and relegate Bennett to the reserves

He's a good player, but he's 31, right? Isn't their better an younger options out there

Why would people think its a good thing signing failing players from failing clubs
Agree5
Disagree3
Just cause a club is failing doesn't mean all their players are poor
for instance wigan have Malony, Mccarthy, Mcmanaman and Figeroa who are decent.
Look at the quality at QPR they just can't play as a team and their all big time charlies

Spurs have reportedly made Villa striker Christian Benteke their number one transfer target, with north London rivals Arsenal also targeting the Belgian international. Benteke has score more than 20 goals in all competitions this season since joining Villa in a £7m deal from Genk. Villa have no intention of selling Benteke, but if he wants out if Villa were to be relegated they will sell for no less than £25m.
Villa, along with Stoke City, are among a number of side linked with France Under-21 international forward Thievy Bifouma, who Espanyol may be prepared to let leave this summer due to their financial concerns. Thievy has spent this season on loan at Spanish Segunda Division side Las Palmas, scoring 13 times to help his side into the final play-off place.
