I fear we'll be hearing more about who wants to leave or might be sold than those coming in...

If the rumours of all those people who might do the above are true we'd be left with about a squad of 8-10 players although maybe having a smaller squad made up of permanent signings and suited to the league would be better than having a large number who clearly don't fit the bill.

A few more (fit) Anya and Abdi type players will do!

£8m would be accepted I suspect, but would a Brummie actually want to go to Villa?

I kept reading Troy Deeney was on a long term loan from Aston Villa, so they can take him back when the company wish.

Rumour has it we are selling in the summer and replacing with 'a vydra-esque' player and a.n. other...read into that what you will!

There is nothing more vydra-esque than Matěj Vydra himself.
 
Here is a list of players rumoured to be going (or really going):

Almunia
Ekstrand
Cassetti
Riera
Faraoni
Diakite
Tozser
(Jenkins)
(Kyprianou)
Deeney
Park

I think we will have a very different team again, at the start of next season.

Deeney and Toszer will be the only ones I'll be sorry to lose. Faraoni I feel could be better with a full season under his belt. There's a few more I'll be happy to see leave.
 
He formed a good partnership with Deeney, but I am not sure that they got on that well. Deeney was saying that he was the better of the two after Vydra left.
 
For potential Vydra has it but for commitment Deeney is head and shoulders ahead. Given recent player shenanigans Vydra would be a liability under Sannino, he needs very strong management, didn't really kick on for Zola as he should have (if he had we would have gone up automatically in 13). The more I think about it the more I'm concerned we get the backroom and captaincy sorted and yesterday in terms of urgency. Flair players will be useless for us with the current setup.
