And Aarons but he will go for big money to a London club. Almost certainly Spurs
Yep, either of those would be fantastic for us. Aaron’s out of reach but hopefully Buendia isn’t.
There’s going to be some good buys available from relegated teams this summer. Fingers crossed we’re in the mix!

The same Grealish who's getting linked with United, Real Madrid and Barcelona? Dyche would have to whip up a hell of an omelette to tempt him to Burnley I think.

Some here would be creaming themselves with a £142million transfer window.
It. Gaurantees. Nothing.
And they only moan louder when it all fell apart than if we spent nothing at all.
There's quite a range between Peter Crouch on a free and £142 million. Not everyone who was questioning our recruitment team leading up to the last window expect the latter.

Wouldn't mind the Cantwell lad from Norwich.
Unfortunately, I think there'll be a rather long queue for his services, consisting of clubs with deeper pockets.

But think of the two choices. Which would you rather have - Peter Crouch plus £30m in the bank? Or that shower that Aston Villa bought (Haton the honourable exception), plus a £100m overdraft? On that range, our recruitment team wins by a country mile. Or a country 140 million miles.

That's not typical for them recently (0-0 home to Norwich, 2-2 away at Everton, 1-0 win at home to Chelsea, 1-1 away at Wolves has been a decent run of 6 points from the 4 last games).
The 2-2 at Everton was courtesy of 2 injury time goals after they had been battered for most of the previous 93 minutes and the Chelsea result was another 94th minute goal after being battered for the previous 93!

Villa wide open at the back, shocking.
Maybe they were trying to emulate our recent trip to Spurs.
