    Aston Villa Chairman, Tony Xia, has written an open letter to Villa fans. It contains these lines.........

    7. To be clear, to meet FFP we need to player trade. No shareholding sale of any size will contribute to meeting FFP. We must reduce costs and increase revenue

    8. Selling any size of shareholding in the club will not aid in respect to FFP

    Oh Tony, Daniel Levy's going to make you pay him to take Grealish away if you keep this up.

    Potential scenarios for this happening
    i.) We're dropping either Eriksen or Alli into a deeper role next season, so need a marauding midfielder to protect them
    ii.) We're dropping Dier into a back three next season, so need another defensive midfielder
    iii.) A combination of i & ii
    iv.) Wanyama's off, and with him linked to Dortmund there's the obvious suggestion he'd be a makeweight in any Pulisic deal, so we need backup
    v.) We're doing it to spite those reactionary dickheads on Twitter saying we should never sign a Colombian player (while also selling Sanchez, apparently...)

    According to Spurs Community, it's not us but West Ham who are in for him.

    If he mistakenly turns up to Spurs Lodge for a medial, we shouldn't embarrass him - while telling Levy to get that contract drawn up QUICK

    Surely if he's getting advice from Big Dave he will very quickly find out that signing for the spammers is like cutting your own dick off.

    No wonder he's claiming to be off to Spurs. Who's gonna tell people that you're off to The White Elephant, to play for The Dildo Bros.?

  10. If you believed the Spammers ITK’s they are also signing Messi, Ronnie and Neymar - especially Neymar after they heard he was an expert at ‘rolling’.... <laugh>

    Today it's Hannover striker (and cedent instructions for when holding a champagne flute) Niclas Fullkrug, who looks a lot like a German Vincent Janssen

    ...actually, scratch that, he looks like one of Papa Jupiter's family from The Hills Have Eyes

    As per the club's Twitter, the following players have been shown returning to training today
    Serge Aurier
    Ben Davies
    Pablo Gazzaniga
    Erik Lamela
    Lucas Moura
    Moussa Sissoko
    Michel Vorm
    Vincent Wanyama
    Harry Winks

    On the other hand, here is a list of the players who were also expected to return to training today who haven't been shown so far...
    Cameron Carter-Vickers
    Juan Foyth
    Vincent Janssen
    Fernando Llorente
    Georges-Kevin N'Koudou
    Josh Onomah
    Kyle Walker-Peters

    I get the feeling three names on that list won't be getting removed anytime soon...

    A picture of that, with Brad in the alleged new Nike home shirt,
    taken in the new WHL "cheese room" , labelled with #brave,
    should be enough for the Baddiel looky-likey to make his head
    go like the first scene in Scanners.

    A month today the transfer window closes. No new signings on the horizon apart from probably Grealish.

    The worst part is several ITKs are repeating the mantra that, once the World Cup's done, there's going to be a signing blitz

    ...yeah, unless those players are (for the sake of throwing a few names down) any combination of De Ligt, Pulisic, NDombele, Rabiot and Plea, that's a ****load of post-World Cup markups we'd be paying.
