Villa also set to make a 4 million bid for shay Given although he's demanding 85 k wages a week (so can't see that happening) beens as we got rid or NRC who was on 75 k a week and Bent is only on 60 k so i would look at this the new bench mark that villa will pay in wages

Some of the info that i know from within Villa Park.

Stewart Downing, Will be sold for £22 Million. £18 up front and the rest is Add-ons.

We're Currently Negotiating with Wigan for N'Zogbia. Birmingham for Foster (Guzan mentioned in a possible swap deal) & Dann. Man City for Given (incase the foster deal falls through) And James Milner. Tottenham For Walker. in all the negotiations nothing has been agreed as of yet.

We're also talking to a few players out of Contract.

NRC, has said he'll think about returning to Villa as no club higher up wants him (Only Bolton, Sunderland & Stoke enquired).
Hitzelsperger looks like he could be returning as the talks have been positive.
Woodgate is extremely interested but it's dependant on us selling Cuellar.

Strange as villa park and surrounding roads closed due to Take That concert. And entrance closed. Been so all day. Also all business is done at bodymoor Heath not villa park.

I have it from a very reliable source within the club that Aston Villa have agreed to sell Stuart Downing to Liverpool for a fee in the region of 18 million. This deal has been sanctioned as the club have agreed a fee with Wigan for Charles N'Zogbia of aroung 8 million.
My source has also told me that contact has been made for both Shay Given and Ben Foster. Alex Mcleish wants Ben Foster but has been quoted 9 million which he is unwilling to pay. They are still waiting to here back from Manchester City about a fee before they make a decision.

reading the posts i gather the general feeling is big ek will be getting around 25 mil poss going to 35 if downing goes i think this is a tight buget personaliy but i also believe that if big ek can bring hamoney back to the dressing room ireland, beye, collins, dunne, warnock possibly reo-coker and maybe even carew will be like having 5-7 new signings id even go and make dunne capt(big call i know)but don't forget 2 seasons ago we had the forth best def in the league and the youngsters coming in are of top notch so i don't think massive changes will be made i would look to bring in a keeper playmaking mid fielder another winger and a young hunger striker id like to see line up as below playing 4 3 3

given 5mil
l young
dunne c
collins
warnock
makoun
milner 15 mil/jenas 7 mil

The goalkeeper targets are
Given- He shouldnt want to stay at city where he will be behind Hart.
Green- Destined to leave even though IMO he is championship standard.
Foster- Should leave but is prone to a calamity or two.
Camp- Looks solid enough for club and country, but its a big step up from Forest to Villa as a starting keeper.
Al Habsi- Most likely to be sold with Wigan trying to get him for cheaper than his 4m asking price, not bad looked decent enough at them last season.
Mcgregor- Looks good but Rangers don't want to lose him and the SPL is a far poorer standard than the Premier League.
Heres hoping for Given.

Approximatly 7 will be signed with some departures also.

In: Scott Brown, Danny Simpson, Wes Brown, Charles N'Zogbia, Wesley Hoehek, Ben Foster and Roman Pavlyuchenko.

Out: (The lot that have been released or sold) + Downing.

Wes Brown will prob go to Everton,
Charles N'zogbia STATES HE wants to re-join Newcastle
Wesley Voehek will prob happen
Ben Foster Has been priced out of our reach along with Mcgregor so hopefully we get Given but it looks like it will be Ali-Habsi or Green
And i really just can't see us Signing but we really need a signing of this caliber during the window
Scott Brown is getting on isn't he and don't Villa like to keep the squad mainly young players,
Danny Simpson will prob sign for us as well but as for the rest i can't see happening

Villa to sign Dutchman Wesley Verhoek is 24 can play either wing and is set to cost 5 million, And Kenyan 19 year old international winger Wanynama set to cost 3-5 million, these seen as replacements for Ash and Downing with Albrighton stepping up.
Also Villa will finally sign Jenas from spurs for around 6-7 million.
And i fear the worst as starting to fear Villa will sign Butter Fingers Green for 3-5 million or Ali-Habsi Not Not Foster or Given Like we'd all like to see.

Villa will also sign a centre back in Johnson or Simpson

And our youth team will step up into the first string such as Deflounso, Delph, Bannan, Clark, set to feature more with Herd and Baker on the first team fringes

All these look smart moves as Villa want to trim the wage Bill Although i fear if we don't produce a big name or two out of the transfer market Bent will be off next summer

big rumour floating around that villa have agreed a fee for n bendner of arsenal for around 10mil and there are deals ongoing for j jenas, s given, a hutton and c n zogbia

Well I would love to see these moves happen i feel Bentdner won't come as his wage demand will be to high and he'll have champs league clubs sniffing round him
Also N'zogbia has made it public he wants Newcastle out of the clubs interested

Although Jenas has long been linked with Villa and Hutton would be good and I'd love to see Given or Foster as the VP Number 1 got a feeling we'll end up with Ali-habsi or Butter Fingers Green

Not sure this will happen mate, as Goodwillie was questioned by police in relation to an alleged crime
=================================

one word MINCE!

Cuellar will sign for rangers for 2.8 million by the end of next week

Goodwillie won't sign for aston villa, Rangers and cardiff are front runners, rangers don't want to pay the 2 million for him considering the situation with his court case in the wings, but as a rangers man his first choice is rangers, rangers don't want to pay more than 1.5 million for him

Hey Big Ed any possible winger replacements for Young and maybe Downing? {Ed009's Note - I think that N'Zogbia would make sense as a winger purchase, don't you? With Albrighton covering the right wing more aptly than the two outgoings in my opinion, there wouldn't be much need for another winger.}

Villa have already signed Ben Foster on a pre contract. According to a villa source he was at the training ground a month ago sorting the deal out, this actually makes sense bearing in mind we let Friedle go which wouldn't make any business sense as you don't get rid of your keeper if you don't already have a replacement as it is obvious you will be quoted inflated prices by other clubs

We didn't let Friedel go, he left on a free.

Villa have already signed Ben Foster on a pre contract. According to a villa source he was at the training ground a month ago sorting the deal out, this actually makes sense bearing in mind we let Friedle go which wouldn't make any business sense as you don't get rid of your keeper if you don't already have a replacement as it is obvious you will be quoted inflated prices by other clubs

Rumour has it in and around Birmingham that Jermaine Defoe will be making a move to Villa Park for around £8.5million, as Tottenham look to make way for the signings of Drogba and possibly one more top striker. Mcleish's second option to Defoe would be Pavluychenko, who he tried to sign for the Blues.

One more transfer that looks very possible at this moment in time is Charlie Adam, but don't expect anything to happen regarding this transfer to middle of August, as he is supposedly holding out for a move to Man United.

Ancelotti to join, with Ray Wilkins, Lerner will fly in to finalise talks later this week. .this could happen by Friday. This will signal some exciting signings to come in, some being chelsea players!

Signings:

GK: Foster

DEF: Dabo (rb), Dann (cb).

MID: Mikel, Taarabt

ATT: Drogba

The capture of Ancelotti will mean both Downing and Young stay as Lerner has really showed some ambition.

The line up next year will be something like this:

Foster

Dabo Collins Dann Warnock


Young Makoun Mikel Downing


Drogba Bent

What do you think edd? {Ed003's Note - I think Young is leaving}

villa's new kit will be made by nike. the stadium will be re-named the nike arena on a 10 year deal for 60 million.
rafa will be named as next manager. check the odds with all book-makers.
why do you think they appointed glen roeder !
3 games before the end of the season he was employed to look at any potential transfers.
were there is no question about rafa as a manager. he has made some shocking purchases.
i think villa have covered everything.

i would prefer wilkins an ancelloti .

100% truth.

Coments on our next manager are just speculation at this moment. AVFC are keeping tight lipped on this one until it's done. What I can tell you is Mark Hughes will not be manager of AVFC next season. This has come from a high level villa contact. {Ed001's Note - Frank Rijkaard has put himself forward, I doubt he will be in with a chance, but he has definitely put himself up for the job.}

I have just come back from Barcelona with a school sports tour. There were some Bolton and West Ham Coaches out there doing sessions with the teams. I spoke to the West Ham chap (some coach - grey hair) who during a chat about his clubs fortunes suggested that Rob Green will definitely be with Villa next season for approx 5m and that Scott Parker is angling for a move to Spurs though nothing has been done officially on the Parker deal.

(from a PE teacher and Leeds Fan) p.s. Villa please loan us a couple of your decent youngsters please !

Full of S**t links again, just cos Ancelotti is on the manager shortlist, doesn't mean he can bring his old squad with him!

Believable12 Unbelievable10

02 Jun 2011 13:21:49
Ancelotti will sign on for 3 years, he is desperate to stay in the Premier League and Villa is a club that can go forward. This will signal some good signing, and perhaps we could keep at least one of Downing and Young, in all honesty Downing is the more likely of the two - Warnock will also stay put.

Ins: Given, Bosingwa, Alex, Parker, Kalou, (malouda?), Drogba or Anelka, A. Johnson.

Believable8 Unbelievable22

Villa will raid the relegated clubs and the lower half of the table, something that is probably a good idea.

Parker, Ba, Upson, Green, Hitzilspberger and Noble are on the shortlist from West Ham.

Larsson, Foster, Dann from Birmingham.

Rodallega, N'Zogbia and McCarthy from Wigan.

Other high profile names include Drogba, Anelka, Malouda, Bosingwa, Macheda.

Moves will depend on who the manager is of course.

Having said that, my mates son trains with the villa at soccer camps, and someone told him this morning that its rumoured in the office at Villa are interviewing Benitez today. Again i don't know how true it is, but i'd be happy with him.
