Gestede is a bit of a beast. Looked good last season. Surprised more clubs aren't chasing him.

Villa looking to replace Benteke with a number of strikers is smart.

Lascelles is one of those that keeps retreating huh. Not good.

Didn't see him make a single tackle. Rubbish player.

I was taking the mick you joker 

As others have said, in a way I'm really happy for the guy.

Finally given a free role behind two strikers nonetheless to just concentrate on being a creative force of nature.

Hope he stays fit all season. It's going to be very exciting to watch.

Think Villa are having a good window, personally.

The Adebayor and Berbatov signings take pressure off Ayew, and between those two they get prem experience and at the very least ten goals.

Still not sure about their centre backs though.

If we're looking at anyone at Valencia it will be Feghouli.

Last year of contract and we've been linked with him loads in the past.

Looks a lot quicker than I remember in that clip!

Managed to get this guy for £5 million by some miracle and yet managed to screw it up. Pretty extraordinary.

Didn't see him make a single tackle. Rubbish player.

'Elmo' is a much better player than he was when he was with the Mackems, but he's an odious, cheating shitbag who is still not good enough.

 

He's also only effective as a wing back, and I doubt we'll be using them any time soon.

 

As cover to Janmaat I'd take him. Good crosser and probably as good as we'd get in terms what we'd spend on a back up to Janmaat.

Agree completely.

That video was class. Absolutely loved watching him talk his nonsense for Palace man.

Still overjoyed we don't have to deal with this anymore. Such a sweet relief.

Can't wait for the season.

Such a sensitive flower

Yeah. I'm sure Roma will bid for Dummett any day now too 

OK two things, If his mother had 8 kids how did she find time to play international sport?

 

Maybe they opened her legs and used it as the basket?

Incredibly crude, and rather disgusting.

What's a shuttler?

Badminton player I think.

Saw that earlier. The gall of that guy with his wine cellar man. He's a criminal 

Good mates with Cisse, too.

Probably why we will banish him to China or Turkey soon. 

That's not exciting personally

You could see why Ryder would describe it that way though. Being from Man United and not being "foreign".

Evans I think it would be a good signing. Fantastic prem experience and european experience, and a solid defender. His attributes seem to fit alongside someone like Mbemba too.

I'm going to guess Jonny Evans is the secret "exciting" transfer being spoken of.

1 year left. Van Gaal willing to let him go. Would be familiar with McClaren too.

It's like people have forgotten what Pardew is like, just because you think you can make a decent team out of their squad it doesn't mean that's what he will do. Bamford could find himself on the wing like Cisse, Zaha could be dropped permanently for not being a 2nd fullback, the man could make any number of stupid decisions, and be too much of an egomaniac to acknowledge it. He's an awful awful awful manager.

It's like Pardew was never here, and never made a pig's ear of the player's we had.

Palace are a striker away from being a top 8 team. Maybe GK too.

 

Solid enough defence and organisation

          Cabaye  Jedinek

Zaha                          Bolassie 

              Puncheon

 

Is a very tasty midfield proposition. Keep that lot fit and in good form they'll be laughing. It's genuinely exciting times at Selhurst Park. A couple quality additions and even Pardew couldn't mess it up. 1 reliable purple more and they are sorted.

I guarantee you he never lines the midfield up like that. Puncheon will be benched for Cabaye at that number 10 position, and two cloggers will play in midfield, and so there will be no flow from the back to the attaking midfielders.

Also as soon as thye have a bit of a wobble Zaha / Bolasie will be pulled for defensive wingers that track back and do nothing else.

Going to be amazing watching him screw it up. I'll remind you when it happens too.

That's messed up.

See Mourinho is stirring the pot again regarding Stones. We're so screwed if we lose him, might have to employ Gareth "Mascherano" Barry at CB. Shiver.

Demand Zouma on loan in addition to a huge fee, or tell them to do one.

Really hope he stays with you lot man.

Can we please sell Cisse and Sissoko? So annoying the pair of them.
