Here is my take...
{(95%-(95%+X))+10%+20%)*1/3} 1 in 95% done and swop with one out plus money. Would say the Ayew swop deal for Taylor plus a bit of cash for us. We have 2 backups if this goes wrong but we aren't pushing these as we only want one player.

(-99%-65%-50%) - 3 going out, 1 almost done, the other 2 65% & 50%.

+50%+95% - 2 more in. 1 50% & 1 almost done.

So up to 3 incoming with 2 highly likely. Up to 4 out with 2 highly likely interpreting Xia's tweet
No idea whether this includes Tish to nffc and lad from Bury
Sad about Tish going

The fact is that with the right wealthy owner that has a company big enough to funnel funds through the club in terms of marketing or what not, then the FFP is a non-issue. This is basically confirmed by the Manchester City Etihad connection. UEFA didn't give two fucks about that.

I have serious doubts about Xia's wealth compared to a lot of others here, but if he was ridiculously rich, there's very little stopping him from branding everything Villa related with the Recon Group. FFP is utter shite and play for the gallery.

you don't have serious doubts do you Joppe? coming from such a positive thinking person, I'm shocked January '17 Transfer Window - Page 8 1662365926

Interesting this, the vilatransfers guy on twatter just said that the big secret signing is a top secret and he has to be careful, this chap has obviously got someone on the inside at BMH (high enough up that he knows who it is) but needs to keep a lid on it as it will cost him his contact (and his job maybe) if leaked too early, this sounds serious IMO and maybe someone really big on the verge, fuckin great c'mon !

P.S. The Doc is active on twitter today so I'm guessing he's on phone to Wyness none stop, asking can I tweet it now,? how about now? now? how about now?

Thank fek we can look back on that time & smile - imagine if we'd ended up being taken over by a snakeoil chancer; then we'd look back at our speculating & weep.

Wild guess: C Benteke returns?

by 4BetLite Mon Jan 30, 2017 1:19 pm

The Doc cud be a snake oil chancer still, if he is though, he's the best. I've ever seen............. Hope Trotters wakes up to, Benteke, Taylor, Dunk and Bedeau in and Richards gabby westy kozak out

If it is Benteke then it would feel like he's come back to a home he should never have left, big stumbling block would be wages.

by Guest Mon Jan 30, 2017 1:26 pm

I bet its alex bruce

by deadbuzzardalive Mon Jan 30, 2017 1:30 pm

I think someone like Hernandez or Callum Wilson would be more realistic than Benteke, whilst still being a big signing that the club would want to keep under wraps. avfctransfers has also apparently said (I can't see his tweets) that the medical is today.

{(Neil Taylor -(Ayew + cash)+10%+20%*1/3} means just one of these deals will happen, highest probability N Taylor

+(-99% (Tishbola)-65%(McCormack)-50% (A N Other) are out

+50% who knows +95% in - could be the Bury lad BUT Bruce has said someone is close and news has not leaked, so likely someone else as the Bury lad is for the U23s

On the other hand the first 95% -95% my be the Bury lad, signed and then loaned back! I think the first scenario is the likeliest.

That is my take on it as well!

I have been waiting for him to sign all window, the fact he hasn't yet makes me wonder if Daddys been told he has to wait till summer.

I think the additional 2 incoming that are at the end of the Docs tweets are reliant on the 2 or 3 out goings being done first, but other than that it is exactly how I interpreted it.

by 4BetLite Mon Jan 30, 2017 1:43 pm

OK, I've got it, BIG........SECRET..........AVAILABLE.........

Sturridge!

by CoE82 Mon Jan 30, 2017 1:51 pm

just a wild guess, but how about Ashley Young coming home, mourinho, did say yesterday he was the 1 player he might lose.

by ember Mon Jan 30, 2017 1:56 pm

If Villa Transfers is correct - and he usually is - coupled with Bruce's apparent excitement then as the man says:

by Barabass Mon Jan 30, 2017 2:19 pm

I'm thinking it's going to be an 'older' player like a Frank Lampard, going by The Doc's tweet about 'legends with passion, pride, persistence'.

If it is going to be a big signing for us then I bet it's left until after tomorrow's match before it's announced to round up the transfer window nicely.

Nout to do with us, but massive well done to Dimitri Payet for fucking over those dodgy lowlife ex scum excuse for club owners at that joke of a club west spam....... stick that in your pipe and blow some bubbles............
