Ed have we been in talks with that french midfielder who plays for rennes? Thanks {Ed043's Note -there has been many reports so i would expect a deal to be done if a deal will be done within 2 weeks}

Unbelievable1
The deal for Bharimi is nearly done and Villa now after centre back Ramis from Mallorca
Agree8

Also heard that affelay from barca has been linked on a season long loan
Agree7

Ed, a month also ago villa were linked with reyo vallecano midfielder michu an in recent weeks there's been speculation about A. Johnson and C. Dempsey but over the last few days things have gone quiet, are these players still targets for villa {Ed043's Note - these players have certainly got class and im sure lambert would love to sign the likes of dempsey however the wages may be an issue}
Agree5

I hope he does but i do not think he will! ?
Agree6

Hearing Gabby is off to Swansea in straight swap for Sinclair?
Agree5
Disagree9
Is the bahrimi on a perm or loan? hearing mixed rumours ed
{Ed043's Note - i think it is likely to be a loan deal with an option for a permanent move at the end of the loan if both clubs are happy with a deal to be made}
Agree5

Would love Sinclair instead of Gabby
Agree5
Disagree4
Gabby for Sinclair? Go away! Give Gabby this coming season & he'll get a minimum of 10 goals. {Ed043's Note - im sure many villa fans will agree that we need more than 10 goals a season out of a striker}
Agree5
Disagree3
I think Gabby has come to the end of the line at Villa and Sinclair needs that next step up, so it is a perfect deal and would love Lambert to do this deal
Agree5
Disagree2
Sinclair is overrated 50% of his goals are penalties. Ive met him him myself he's a decent bloke, I'd have him but not for gabby gabby will hit 10 plus with no injurys next year
Agree1
Disagree3
Cannot see Swans going for that.
Agree4
Disagree0
Sinclair crossing the ball into bent on 1 side and Bharimi on the other with Holman, Weiman and rhodes as support sounds good to me
Gabby is Villa through and through but not constant and rarely scores more than 8-10 goals would rather have quality crosses going to bent who will bag 20+
Agree1
Disagree1
That Mallorca guy Ramis is quality, would absolutely love him. Man of the match when I saw him play against barca( finished 1-1 )

What's happening with brahimi??

lambert culverhouse karsa holman elmadhi horton
guzan now lets get rid of a few and then strengthen more?
Believable7
Unbelievable0
Definatly its still only the first week of July and we have 3 in, I have a feeling we'll sign 7-8 players all at relatively low fees and 3-5 players out but depending n who's sold obviously hopefully Dunne, Hutton, Warnock and N'Zogbia and even Ireland get sld to make way for and established defender and a creative Midfielder and Tom Ince
Agree4
Disagree4
Not nzog and ireland only hutton collins dunne and warnock ?
Agree5
Disagree0
N'Zog is staying - he just needs to be played as an attacking midfielder not defensive midfielder!
Agree7
Disagree0
I would still sell nzogbia. Get Phillips he will be 20 mil + in a few years. And maybe ince for 3 mil both would be great servants
Agree1

Ed, who do you think were going to sign in your opinion ? {Ed043's Note - i personally see lambert trying to strengthen our defence with the likes of ramis from real mallorca and potentially would like to see him sign another central midfielder who has abit more flair and has the experience for short term future possibly the likes of brahimi to play on the wide postions and play holman in behind bent}
Believable1
Unbelievable4
Ed where do you see N'Zog,Gabby & Weimann then? and even Bannan too! {Ed043's Note - i still see lambert starting with either bannan or n'zogbia from the wide postion with those to battling for a place and whichever looses out will more than likely move on next season and with weimann and gabby i can see them both being on the bench with weimann a gaining experience from bent with gabby possibly moving on from villa because he has not scored enough so lambert could cash in on him before other clubs reduce there interest}
Agree2
Disagree1
I think Gabby deserves another chance personally!
2 seasons he has been out of form - what happened in those 2 seasons .. Houllier: used him as a winger & he had many injuries.
McLeish: used him as a solo-striker for a while with Bent out injured & he had some injury problems.
Lambert does like playing the attacking game like MON, doesn't Gabby deserve a last chance?
Agree4
Disagree1
Gabby has a poor attitude. He only played the last game of the season so he was not classed as injured and therefore have to come back from pre season early. Get rid i say get MON to pay over the odds as he did for 90% of the players he purchased for the villa.

Great signing. This kid is top class either right back or a box to box midfielder, played there fir the youth teams....I think 18 months and he will be looking at an England squad place or near to it.

Ed, is there any chance of us getting Milner. Thanks {Ed043's Note - there are many speculations from fans linkinng him back however after winning the premier league and more than likely on to win more there is little hance of him returning in the near future}

Lambert and Culverhouse don't like show boaters so expect wholesale changes.
Believable3
Unbelievable4
To be fair I wish we had some show boaters. More like show me the money players. Hope we are able to move on the players he does not want but Im guessing they would rather sit on the bench/reserves and collect than move on.

Personal friend?

Totally agree. We have had more trhan our share of take the money and dont run over the last few seasons. My old lady could do a better job than some of these lead legs. Her tackles would put most of Villa defence to shame. She is available and would not cost as much as the tea lady!
Agree1

What's Steven Ireland then with his tattoos, bling and pink Bentley?? Lambert won't put up with those antics for long.
Agree4
Disagree3
Of ireland delivers on the pitch then I don't think Lambert will care what coulour his car is he isn't mcleish ffs
Agree3
Disagree0
The problem with Ireland is that he's more concerned about his persona than he is his football.
