Aston Villa looking at 26 year old Danny Simpson as competition for Matt Lowton at Right Back.
He got released from Newcastle so on a free, and was only on 10k a week at Newcastle due to never getting an improved contract since joining in 2010.

Looks like a good squad player but lowton is a lot better and he will keep Simpson out the team

He will probably want 1st team football week in week out

Would be a good replacement for Alan "Mutton"

Do we not have chris herd to cover in this position, I think left back is priorty.

Would be a solid signing, bit of a thug player but I think Lambert would get that under control and on 10-15k a year would be ideal! Only as cover however (or cup run) as Matty Lowton is our main man!

Don't think we need Simpson, he's got an ego he's not good enough to have.

It was only 12 months ago Simpson rejected 30k a week from Newcastle to extend his contract (if reports are to be believed) so I think he'd want more than 15k a week.

Yea will be hard for any player to dislodge lowton from the team, I think we should buy a versatile centre half who can play at rb.

Lowton for England!

Nicklas Helenius has stated his desire to leave Danish club AaB, amidst reports that Aston Villa have agreed a fee for the striker.

Helenius, who has two caps for his country, scored 16 goals in 33 league games last season after netting 14 times in 2011/12.

The striker was voted Denmark's Player of the Year on UEFA's website, and is expected to fly in for a medical at Villa Park once the two clubs agree a fee. That is something that the player clearly wishes to happen

Aston VIlla to resign ashley young from Manchester United after moyes tells him he's not in his plans for the year

Unless this is a loan I can't see us paying the amount they would want (guessing 15+)

Wont happen wages to big and man u won't let him go after just 1 season

Haha good one! Going to take a pay cut too is he?

Yeh, right! Like that's going to happen!

Wages way too high for Lambert

Again cannot see it. I find Belhanda quite a stretch of the imagination but Young is a non starter. The wages alone are going to be huge, on top of that he was a little on the 'flash' side when we had him, with little to prove now he is not a Lambert signing.

We will likely only add to Tonev with Okore, Creswell, that Danish CF, Murphy and one other player maybe a couple of very young obscure players after that to fill the squad up.

No chance.
Now injury prone and on £100k a week.
Include that to a minimum £10m transfer fee Aston Villa are not interested.
Nor are they interested in James Milner or Gareth Barry before anyone else suggests they are.

Two actually, can't see it happening, if it is to happen I think he's more likely to join either Spurs or Arsenal.

Noway he left villa when he was needed and now he is a surprise target I doubt this very much he is not good enough for us now let him rot at utd where he wanted to be up the villa

He has been at united for 2 seasons not one

It's been two seasons

Id be happy to have him back but can't see it happening

Leandro Bacuna is our next new signing.

Has someone just said he is not good enough for us now?

A fully fit Ashley Young would be one of the first names on our team sheet. Just imagine his distribution to Benteke and Weimann

Look youngs good gabby is better now and we have signed tonev

Why sign him now

I never rated him as a player he is rubbish he can't go past players. can't tackle. he dives for fun glad he left us. he would be rotting on our bench getting paid silly money for nothing he wouldn't get into our team. if he signed for villa who would be dropped? I say no one because he is no better than what we have already fact up the villa

Should buy briddcutt for 2 mil and ros on loam

Who ever just said Gabby is better than Young, mate your clueless!

Most on here in January were saying we should get rid of Gabby because he was useless an finished. Gabby is a good player and is effective when he's on form, but he's not half the player Young is.

An Young will not be coming back

>Scg87

Sorry ill rephrase my words

Gabby will be better than young

bacuna will be better than young

also look at tonev he is the new hitzelspurger. hopefully
