I hope not as it's illegal to even talk to him until may

would take him on a free, but thought Villa would have won him over

MOTM for villa on Saturday

Vlaar just returned from injury; Benteke just returned from injury; Delph out.

Not sure I'd boast about being MotM in a 3-0 defeat, given the circumstances.

players out of contract next summer can negotiate deals with other clubs, they can also sign a pre contract agreement with another club in january regardless.

If Martinez has shown even one iota of interest then he'll be holding out to come here, I could've called this one.

Rather a side that has just been turned over three nil and a player who is on loan still gets MOTM.

hope dross like cleverley isnt gonna hold up ledson and walshs progression to the first team

Meh, he's a player Martinez obviously wants. Thought he looked decent in a poor Villa side at the weekend. I think he's a player who, in the right team, can dictate tempo very well.

Happy enough if true, although I'd prefer Delph on a free instead.

Imagine it'll be the end of Gibson, can see him going for about £5m to a newly promoted club. Osman will become even less prevalent next season too.

I would take them both, Ossie, Barry, Pienaar, will be on the wane in the next few years, and Gibson looks to have deteriorated since his injury.

nah. Only foreign clubs. Domestic Clubs aren't technically allowed to speak to a player re: contract until a month before expiry, i.e May

Joey66 · October 23, 2014

A very poor mans James McCarthy - we need a creative speedy central midfielder! Barckley may provide us that now but we need cover for him- he may be good as a squad player as Gibson looks finished, and Osman is only an 1/2 an hour playmaker now.
