Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert has made a £3.5m move for Town defender Aaron Cresswell, according to the Daily Mirror

The 22-year-old was a virtual ever-present for an inconsistent Ipswich side last season and was given a new deal until 2015 by Paul Jewell.

The ambitious Scouser will not agitate for a move and Town will hold out for around £5m but there is a good chance the former Tranmere full back will move to Villa Park sooner or later.

He's a left back

Agree10 Disagree1

Where in that post does it say he is not a left back. It sez hes a defender and a full back. He doesnt need correcting

Tomkins for £5million maybe rising to 7 for him as a young english talent.
Sturridge in as a striker not RW like at chelsea. Sturridge, Bent, Agbonglahor, Delfounso, Weimann as forwards.
New LB could be cresswell or possibly bertrand from chelsea if we can get him perm.

Then top ten finish here we come. Eventually when given looses his touch bring in Lindergaard from united or promote Seigrist to number one

Believable6 Unbelievable30

As you said Tomkins is young and talented!
So what makes you think west ham would sell him to us for £5m?? Anyway id prefer we go buy Shawcross! >scg87

Agree27 Disagree2

Shawcross would be a quality signing but he's a GOD in stoke they wont sell vhim and it wouldn't be cheap if they did Man U get 20% of any future transfer on him

If vlaar is trying to tell lambert what to do and sign him, do we really want him?

Personally I would like to have Clark, Dunne, Baker and Tomkins (West Ham).

I believe tomkins would be great for us with clark in two/three years time. People slate him but he could learn from dunne just like baker and clark have been. Ship collins out with hutton.

Believable3 Unbelievable22

If we are shipping out collins where would the height in our back 4 be (hyperthetical question as on this site id prob get the answer of vidic and terry)

Agree1 Disagree15

Baker 6'3. Dunne 6'2. Clark 6'2 there not midgits, are they?! Lol. >scg87

Agree26 Disagree1

Ipswich are holding out for a fee of around 6 million for lb Cresswell

Believable7 Unbelievable8

£6m for a LB who has only had 1 good season..... In the championship?! Lmao we could probably sign baines for £10m! Not that baines would come to villa, just making a point. >scg87

Agree26 Disagree0

Nah united want baines so he would cost more around £15 mill. U know what everton are like..... N if lambert turns him into a great fullback £6 mill would be nuffin.

I see where your coming from though i'd go £4.5 mill highest. Untested in prem and there are better LB out there we could get.

Agree0 Disagree13

Key word in your post is "if"! £6m is a lot of money for an "if" he becomes a good player. A couple more examples of LBs we could get for less than £6m are N. Collins, Izaguire even olsson all proven at a high level. >scg87

Taye taiwo looking to go back to the prem after a relatively good loan spell with qpr last year. Villa one of many clubs reportedly interested

Believable5 Unbelievable32

Would love to have him instead of warnock and he takes a great penalty. He's like a nigerian Baines.

Agree5 Disagree31

Taiwo might take a good pen but he's the opposite to Baines! Taiwo has a lot of pace, he's up an down the wing but he cant cross he cant shoot an more importantly he gets caught out of position on a regular basis. >scg87

Agree27 Disagree6

Couldn't disagree with u more! My dad is a qpr fan and when watching taiwo he has been quality. Easily dealt with walcott agaisnt arsenal, scored a great free kick agaisnt sunderland and put in a great cross for stephen warnock to head in the best own goal ever.
Basically what you said was complete ball s***!
I would luv to hav him at villa park.

Agree3 Disagree26

He's a great crosser of the ball and has a beast of a shot. Could probably get him for 3 mil as well which is half of what Ipswich want for cresswell

Agree1 Disagree27

So your dad saw 1 game where he played good? Lol. Did your dad say why QPR dont seem to be interested in taiwo? Because if he was that good at QPR they would have bought him already! Lmao. >scg87

Agree23 Disagree1

My dad is a season ticket holder!
And the reason they haven't bought him is becsuse qpr are interested in alexander buttner from vitesse

Agree0 Disagree22

So what your saying is QPR want holland's third or fourth choice LB instead of, in your words, "nigeria's version of baines"? Lol. Ok.... Taiwo cant be that good then! Maybe man u should go buy taiwo instead of spending £12m odd on baines! Haha. >scg87

Agree21 Disagree1

Baines is only that price because he is English you fool

Agree0 Disagree14

If taiwo was so good then he would have made it at AC Milan you person! Baines has been the best LB in the prem for the last 2 seasons! An like i said, if taiwo is so good then wouldnt man u prefer to spend 2million on him rather than spending £10m-£15m on baines?? I say again taiwo just isnt that good you moron! An everyone can see that except you!

An you stilL didnt say why QPR would prefer to have hollands fourth choice LB?? behind Pieters, Willems and even Bouma instead of "nigeria's version of Baines"?? Lmao...... Errrrrrr??? >scg87
