Guzan has been linked with a move to Arsenal last week. Since then Brad Guzan has come out and said that he is happy at Villa Park and isn’t looking for a move.
“Aston Villa, they’ve stuck by me, especially the manager.He’s given me a chance to play consistent football in Europe.
“It’s always nice when you’re linked with other teams, but for me, I’m very happy at Aston Villa.”
“It’s a club that I think is definitely on the rise, and it’s something I want to be a part of.” – Brad Guzan
Guzan has stayed at Villa Park for a number of seasons and his patience has been re-payed with Guzan quickly becoming one of the best keepers in the Premier League. It’s very good to see some loyalty from Guzan especially since Villa has lost a host of very talented players over the years.
Juventus have been linked with a move for Aston Villa forward Christian Benteke. Apparently Juventus are looking to sign another striker. Napoli and Roma have both made very positive starts to the season and Juventus boss, Antonio Conte is looking to add Benteke to his squad. Juventus have already signed two forwards, Tevez and Llorente in the summer, but after the disappointing to start to Llorente’s career at Juventus, Conte might try to bring one of Europe’s hottest strikers, Benteke.
It’s believed that Juventus would be willing to bid 20 million euros (£17 million) for the striker. Benteke has just recently signed a new contract at Villa Park.
£17 million is a bit weak, his price has definitely increased since the start of the season and I reckon a bid of around £25 million might be enough for an oversea’s club. But Benteke will not be sold in January, he will stay for the remainder of this season. Obviously it’s unknown whether or not he will move in the summer. Benteke has been terrific for Aston Villa so far and Aston Villa will not lose their prize asset on the cheap.
They’re also linked and favorites to sign Traore of Anzhi, and were linked to Lukaku so it’s really a simple link to a big, really talented striker.
More importantly is there any truth to that rumour that OOHAH is going on loan to one of the Small Heath forums or have personal terms really fallen through?
Lazio are also being linked to him to replace Klose, though while they’re not a poor club, they couldn’t afford 30m+, neither could Juventus. Juventus are most likely signing Traore anyways.
lol foxy
if anyone did come in for him in jan then it should just be 40m or get stuffed, the jan window in notorious for desperate clubs throwing around desperate money and prices are even more inflated than in the summer, 17m is a joke, spurs offered 20 in the summer, they’re having a laff.
I think for 40m we should throw in Terry too. Wait, no, you’re talking about Benteke aren’t you?
There’s no way we’re going to sell Benteke in January.

That’s the update so far Internationally.
Who gives a fuck internationals are shit is glad proper football is back on weekend last weekend was shit.
I give a fuck about internationals… Which is why I post it every time it goes on. 😉
He’s Irish Andrew, why would he give a toss about Internationals ?
Ha ha def not Irish England thru and thru. But I can’t support sky four overhyped players in an England shirt who play when they feel like it and always under perform at the finals. I can’t get excited about a utd player scoring against a shite team like Poland. Now of course if gabby was playing and scored that would be different.
Who is on the bench from Villa in both England team’s, Birmingham have, wolves, and Albion. we must be good.
Ciaran Clark makes the bench for Ireland
Weimann on the bench for Austria
Benteke on the bench for Belgium
Which is where we want them to be.
Tell you what, Townsend is doing a superb job on the right wing isn’t he?
He’s very direct with pace to take on defenders, a better version of Lennon imo.
Eh, I like seeing our players play, like Kozak. Hit the post and got the assist for the 1-0 win over Bulgaria. Only two players that played were Kozak and Vlaar.
Gotta say though Lewandowski should have finished England off early, so, so, so wasteful.
That Gerrard goal was a cracker
Definitely was, being pushed while scoring and how he beat two defenders was pretty intense.
Thought he’s supposed to be a good player too. It will all end in tears at World Cup when we get knocked out in the quarters on pens yawn
Andrew did you watch under 21s, they was brilliant. 5-0
You know Oohah ,your not as daft as you speak, yes your bang on , unless Hodgson moves youth into the Senior side and quick we won’t have a cat in hell chance, that Leve Morrison is good and I mean good, in fact young England would play some of that first team off the park.
I’m sure there was a back handed compliment in there bill ;-). Agree we have to get rid of the lampards gerrards etc they did fuck all in the finals in their prime so will be even worse now
