SuperSAINT

Very nicely done and completely off the cuff

Looks like it's got a sports-bra on that's pulled up too high!

Guess that's done then

1st team coach then?

Yeah, there was a tweet from a little while ago that said that was happening.

Sky sources: Andros Townsend to have medical at Crystal Palace this afternoon.

Very happy to hear he's extended his contract with us too.

True. Berahino's biggest mistake was essentially wasting last season IMO. We moan about Vic's tantrum pre-Europa, but at least he sorted himself out after that. I need to see a Berahino link reported by a more reputable journo before I believe we want him.

We paid Osvaldo & Gaston 120k between them. I'd pay Morgan 100k.

Think there was a "laughing gas" incident too.

That's why it's taken so long to appoint Puel - We've sailed him over!

I was watching an interview with Tommy Elphick earlier and thought the same thing - The interview was on the Bournemouth website & he said something like: "when a team of that size [Villa] comes in for you, it turns your head".

Replacing Sammy, I bet.

Shame about Sammy leaving. I really hope Dave Watson is hanging around. Could whip up a mean omelette though I bet & improve the pies.

Maybe that deal with Walsall puts us at the front of the queue?

Random link to Villa's Jordan Amavi. http://www.insidefutbol.com/2016/06/29/nice-drop-out-of-aston-villa-star-race-as-claude-puel-eyes-southampton-involvement/292819/? *Please don't be linked to Bertrand departure*

Needs 1 other at least IMO. No replacement for Sadio in that list. (It's not Redmond, we needed a right-winger anyway) Needs another forward to cover the combined loss of Gaston/Juanmi.

Cheap option to replace Wanyama?

From SSN: Nathan Ake has agreed to join Bournemouth from Chelsea on a season long loan deal.
