Newcastle look to be out of the race for Sissoko, as they are chasing some one else. We need to move quick to beat Sunderland though, as we don't want to have him pipped from us like Remy from Newcastle.

He not moving till the summer

As far as I understand his contract is up in summer so can leave for free so Toulouse want to cash in on him now. Could be a bargain

I remember last time we bought an exciting midfielder from France Mr John Makoun! Whatever happened to him!? Maybe this guy will be given a chance. Still think we need experience. Maybe Reo-Coker until the end of the season. Still think we need an experienced centre half & some creativity. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang sounds interesting or maybe Scott Sinclair onloan till the end of the season {Ed003's Note - Sinclair has already played for 2 teams}

Reo Coker is no good was a waste of RL money you are a blues fan

Makoun was never exciting & Sissoko is young & a bit like Mo Diame.
Agree6
Disagree7
Not exciting?! 6months before we signed Makoun he was playing in the Champions League and scored against Real Madrid! On paper he was a top signing for us. Shame he didn't get more games..

If Sinclair isn't an option why does his name keep being banded round on media sites
Agree10

I thought it was the player cannot play for 3 different premier league teams in one season but he was signed before the start of the season meaning that officially ony played for man city during this season ?? {Ed007's Note - The rule is that a player can be registered for three clubs in one season but can only play for two of them.}

We have been watching Capouie, Sissoko is of no interest to Villa unless they sell Ireland
Agree2

Sinclair came on as a substitute in Swanseas first game of the season and scored you moron. He's sued for two teams. He is not a possibility!

Saha on a free anyone?

Unbelievable10
Get him he scores goals and would bring experience - Swinhoe
Agree7
Disagree5
Why would we consider him when our attacking threat is good but we`re poor everywhere else. there`s plenty of positions that are more of a priority....
Agree12
Disagree3
Think this is a player you need to get, Premier League experience, you can't afford to turn players with experience away to get young npower Championship players.
Agree4

Note saha could be employed in a midfield role giving experiance to the younger players around him, a good shout on a 18 month contract.

This will never happen because a player cannot play for 3 premier clubs in 1 season.

Well Richard Dunne is back at training so when he's back there's another experience centre back. Him and Vlarr and clark will be good becasue Clarke has the legs and Vlarr and Dunne can win in the air.

Your not far off, We are close to signing Sissoko for that price (3mil), but the wage he's asking for is on par with bent, we're reluctant to saddle ourselves with that...just now could be different come monday.
coutinho isn't on his way to Villa in any shape or form. It was an agent trying to generate interest, so his client gets offered a new deal.
There isn't going to be a move for an attacking mid, WE are however looking at moving for Hangeland, Lescott or Dawson. Also Cavanda will be bought for 6mil.
Coming in on a 6 month deal, Is Nigel reo-coker, This move was discussed during our recent game at Ipswich. We're also looking at Royston Drenthe to add stregth to our left side, he's free but his attitude isn't exactly the best.
Finally if we manage to sell bent, we will try to seal a deal for Aubameyang but it's only if we sell bent.
Players on there way out are, Ireland to fulham for 4.5mil (Might be used as make weight in the hangeland deal) Warnock is interesting fulham also, with riise being linked with a move away. but a few championship clubs are also interested, Hutton is attracting interest from the championship and from mls.

Guys, so certain, but yet no evidence at all......it helps us average punters when you atleast provide some loose link as to how this "information" was obtained.
Otherwise it sounds like nothing more than a fantasy shopping list

Drenthe in barely 5'6 so he won't be adding any "strenth" to our left side lol

Baker with Dunn and vlarr.clarke better in midfield.baker will be world class.i wish he would play warnock .not every bodies cup of tea but experience is vital.lowton one for the future.he needs a break .bennett I am not so sure.it will be tight very tight now Harry is spending but who knows

Would be amazing if the original post was true. Although all are young and unproven in prem so would be a big risk to get us out of relegation zone!
The only thing I would add is a centre half - would love Hangeland, Dawson, or Lescott but not sure they would sign for us. And I think Reo-Coker is a good shout for experience and a leader.
