8m for parker is a no brainer, we could even throw in diouf as part of the deal.

Eleven days including a bank holiday and a three match days.. hmmm

i hope we will have like a quadrouple announcement! vukevic, john, ibisevic and lansbury! that would be awesome! add in the loan signings of onouha and wilson. we got a pretty decent squad.

robinson

onouha samba nelsen olsson

nzonzi petrovic

formica vukevic hoilett

ibisevic/matavz

subs: bunn, john, lansbury, rochina, pedersen, dunn, goodwillie.

with roberts, wilson, salgado, emerton etc as backups

really hopeful these will come true!

Wow the youngest and least experienced team sheet I think I have ever seen predicted... must have experience and strength further up the pitch (and not talking Roberts).

[rovers1993]

vukevic, ibisevic, robbo, samba, nelsen will provide experience aplenty. not to mention onouha has plenty of epl experience as well.

Big Sam saying Parker is available for 8M, we should be all over that.

I can't imagine him leaving London.

He doesn't need to, he can hitch a lift with Keano.

If we are to play 4231 then for me we definitely need another player for the sitter/box to box role and a top one. Grella most like has a shoulder injury after JR touched him at the awards evening and Petrovic is an unknown quantity at present in the EPL.

PS does anyone know if the link with Bridge the other day has any substance?

Thats what I call reaching mate.. your bench has 5 players without 10 EPL games between them, squad has a amazingly low average age, Vukčević and Ibišević have not played in the EPL (Ibišević has been out for much of the last 3 seasons and Vukčević has averaged less than 20 games a season in Portugal for the last 3 seasons), 4 starting players have not played more than 1 EPL game between them...

So? The same could be said for the likes of Piatti, Cisse, Raul..? We're not going to buy proven premier league players because we're not a big enough club. We either buy reserve team premiership players (Mame Diouf, Benjani etc) or go for better yet unproven foreign players (Vukčević). Its the gamble we have to take.

It will be difficult to integrate all of these potential signings but I believe that is called one of those 'good problems'.

Villa interested in Olsson what a bloody joke. Dream on Alex.

On a separate note I just changed my avatar and saw all the Simpsons/Family Guy pre-set avs on there as well. Now I understand why a lot of users have them set because up until now I was really curious why so many had them, I thought it must have been an in joke that I didn't know haha

Sam loves Diouf. I doubt he would want to sell Parker to us though.

[SirLarsIII]

If Parker is indeed available for 8 mil - we should give it a punt if we are willing to pay 6 mil for Gibson.

Not sure he would leave London or will maybe wait for the big move - but you never know. Could get lucky...

[philipl]

Hate to say it but after Vuckovic and Petrovic arrive, I think we could now be struggling to get more players in than will leave in the rest of this window.

Seems that Kean has been a bit of a cock with a couple of players.

Villa dream on!!!

Olsson will not leave rovers!!! He is very happy at the club as he has said on his twitter page about a month or 2 months ago.

id swap olson for warnock any day of the week, warnocks much more versatile and consistant, and judgin by the comments olson leaves on twitter he comes across as a stereotypical spoilt young footballer(expects everything on a plate yet hes achieved nothing thus far).

'Hate to say it'...?? You've been desperate to say such things for months.

Can't see Olsson leaving. He's not worth the money that any club would need to pay for him. Same goes for Nzonzi.

If he was going to leave it would be to a big club and definately not Villa.

Seems Bassong is available at 2mill according to bbc gossip page that states a turkish is after him at that price. Even at 3 or 4 we should get in there.

There are always players that don't like the manager, and most people seem to think he's a cock anyway, so is this just general cockishness or all new levels of specific cockishness?
