Aston Villa are one of a handful of clubs pursuing 23-year-old Toulouse midfielder Moussa Sissoko.

Labert tracking Luis pedro Cavanda a 23 yr old beligan right back who plays for Lazio

Lambert keen on making approaches for S. Sinclair, Lescot and Guidetti from Man city

Can people stop saying about Sinclair on loan, a player cannot play for 3 BPL teams I 1 season, he played a game for Swansea and has played for man city so he is not allowed to play for another, sorry BPL rules {Ed003's Note - thank you.}

If Sinclair can't play for another prem club this season then why are the media linking him with clubs in the jan transfer window? Is there a loop hole in this rule?
Like "restriction of trade", maybe?

Apparently its 3 teams in a calendar year not a premier league season so as this is 2013 its okay to happen I don' t think thats true though

Didn't shorey an begovic play for 3 clubs in the same season a couple seasons back? FIFA couldn't do anythin about that

There is a way Sinclair can sign I was reading it on vital villa

I reckon the reports of 10m budget to be true, however if we sell players more money will be available. the likes of bent, ireland, dunne, warnock, given and hutton.
Warnock, thank god, has had interest from prem teams
Hutton can sign permanently for forest
bent to arsenal to replace chamakh
Ireland can go on a free, because he's rubbish!

All of these gone will eliminate a substancial amount of wages, meaning we could get more players or 4 or 5 higher waged players. the likes of lescott.

Players i would like to see:
Dawson (spurs) AVB doesn't favour him
Huddlestone
Matt Phillips, swap for Delfouneso

If RL is really a proper owner and doesnt want us to go down he will put a bit more money in than 10mil

Lambert has rubbished that he needs to sell players & issues that Bent is not for sale.
Lerner will pay money for a player if its worth paying for them.

Delfouneso is doing class at Blackpool. Will be good next year {Ed003's Note - far from class,but the link with Matty has some truth to it}

Fonz is doing OK/GOOD.
Class? No, he's like Albrighton & Gabby, never lived up to their expectations.

5 Goals in 22 games is not what i call a great record also considering this is the Championship and not the Premier League

Take a look at his assists people he has been playing lw a lot and a third of those 22 games were probably late sub appearances

Aston Villa are looking to sign boyhood fan Joleon Lescott from Manchester City he will have to take a cut in wages but Randy Lerner has said he will back Lambert in the transfer market.

rumour has it were going in for palacios, Lambert feels were short in the wider areas as the like of n'zogbia and albrighton need competition. it is said that Aubameyang although he wants to join Villa they wont be able to match the valuation unless they are able to move a few players on Bent if valuation met (reading qpr and west ham rumoured ) ireland could be set to be heading for the exit after his recent lacklusture performances. dunne is considering the offer from redbulls only thing stalling it is dunne feels he owes villa for missing half the season and the fact the clubs transfers are overseen by houllier lescott possibly coming in on load with option to buy but face competition from everton

These are the players I want and that are possible to get here at villa:
Lescott 6-8mill
Huddlestone(loan) then buy at end of season
Whittingham I think he's a great player he's about 2-4million
And finally augbemeyang or hooper. Hooper seems the more realistic option but let's see what happens!

"And the fact transfers are overseen by houllier" ??? What are you talking about!?!? Lol

NY Red Bulls have there transfer dealings looked after by none other than Gerard Houiller.

Given the tense time that Dunne and he had during the tenure at Villa, it is not all that plausible that Houiller would want Dunne in NY. he did freeze him out after all, but Dunne was carrying on like an person along with James Collins
