The Summer 2021 Transfer Rumour Thread

[Xchurch Villa]

He's still playing in the Czech lower leagues I think. Never really did it for us but I'll never dislike him after he got 2 vs the blues. I'd never seen ys bear them before that day.

I'd probably seen ys bear them a few years before

Thought Baros was OK. Not suited to us at the time though. Houllier signed him twice, once for Liverpool, once for Lyon. MON took an instant dislike to him and as soon as he could swapped him for Carew. Not sure that MON was that keen on Carew either. An overrated manager.

Baros had a pretty good career. Retired less than a year ago. Thought he looked class.

Very good striker, not the most gifted in the world but he has something about him. I didn’t like his attitude, I remember a mate getting a picture with him leaving Villa park at the same time as the fans, always thought that was a bit strange to rush from the ground so quickly.

I saw him in town with his girlfriend once and trust me I'd have been rushing home as well.

I can find no trace of that on Collomosse's twitter feed nor the DM.

 

[ironside]

I’d rather have Neil Young.

Ashley Young anyone?

That's bizzare. I literally came into this thread to suggest a move for Young and saw this.

I'd take him as cover for Targett for 1 year. He's just won Seria A and played a lot of games. Inter want to keep him. Can't see why you'd turn your nose up on a free if it saves a few million buying a replacement for Taylor.

 

[The Fear]

He still has a place around Barnt Green, would make sense that he would like a return.

Nothing wrong with top experience to supplement the young set up.

 

[DeanoVilla]

Indeed. 1 year then maybe offer him a coaching role.

 

[Pride of Lions]

I’d rather have Neil Young.

(Keep on) Rockin' in the Free World....

 

[DeanoVilla]

Would he be an improvement on Taylor? Yes
Would he be free? Yes
Would he settle straight in? Yes.
Is he still playing very well at the very highest level? Yes.

I'm not seeing too many negatives I've got to say.

 

[Pangloss]

Young is surprisingly still good, wouldn't say no.

Ashley Young anyone?

It would be emotional, I'd be dumbfounded.

He's a bit of a twat?

Why? Coz he left us? How dare he, I don't think anyone has ever left us before.
