So both Cleverley and Canales have ruled out moves to Villa due to wages so I guess our windows finished.

If Cleverly wants to sign for Everton because they will pay him more then I wouldn't want him at villa anyway. If he can't shine at Manchester United (or England) then he is unlikely to set the world alight at villa. Shame we haven't signed anybody, but the most significant fact is keeping hold of Vlaar. Plus that's a real sign of a player that has loyalty. Onwards and Upwards.

Hear vlar only staying to see out his contract to get a bigger move in the summer so will see loyalty then. Great he is staying tho. Seems PL was trying to get someone as reported he is still working so may grab somin. Early night then.

The whole cleverley saga simply reinforces the public idea of ht a fesional footballers is, greedy, overrated, self motivated, untrustworthyegotists pampered by any weak, insipideasily duped football club can fall prey to, ki, hoolahan, ki, cleverly, and more, WE ARE ASTON VILLA why are we snubbed by players who are generally generally, u nfit to represent us som me bo is failing in their job of talent to bring punters and money through the door

Villa and PL are absolutely right not to cave in to Cleverley's wage demands. £70k-£80 a week? The kid should be grateful we've met his transfer fee in the first place because no one else had, and offered him a chance of regular football to get his career started again. Money obviously a more important factor to him and at the moment we need people where playing football comes first.

Unexpectedly Cleverley appears to value himself more than united, villa or Everton do. Now he can sit on the bench at man u and run his contract down.

{Ed003's Note - The prob seems to be United wanting to sell him rather than loan him out.}

Manchester United's preference to sell had nothing to do with Cleverley not signing. I understand a bid was accepted from Villa.

Will be a bid in for Sergio Canales he's an attacking winger from Real Sociadad. Decent player!

If I remember correctly Canales also spent some time on loan at QPR. An exciting AM with a decent free kick. Great potential and the right age I'd say now for villa. If I had to choose between cleverly and Canales I would opt for Canales for sure. If it got to midnight and villa had signed Defoe and Canales I would be extremely happy and would have to thank Lambert / Lerner - fingers crossed!

Canales deal going through. my mate in Spain telling me that the spanish website Marca are reporting its done.
I don't understand it though. because Cleverly's deal is hanging in the balance because of wages. 4 players are leaving because of it. so where will Canales & Cleverlys wages come from??

Conales has never left Spain, plagued by injuries after his move to Real Madrid. Not a prolific goal scorer but a real talent, comfortable on the ball and can take on a player or 3. Real excited about this one!

You are quite right peterwithein - my memory was letting me down. I was getting him confused with Esteban Granero.

No go!Canales had turned down the offer from Villa to stay in Spain. Gutted about that one.
