    Multiple reports that Douglas Luiz has agreed contract terms with Forest and we're now negotiating the deal with Juve.

    The Douglas Luiz of two years ago looks decent from this showreel. He was voted Villa's player of the year in 2022/23 by both supporters and players. Hadn't realised he was their penalty-taker, too, which is interesting in a team with Ollie Watkins.

    Yet his showreel from last season, where he barely played, will be terrible. Fingers crossed we're going to get the good version!

    I would probably emphasise his 5 years in the Premier League, during which time Villa established themselves as a serious Premier League team, over one year in Italy. Everything is a risk, but he has real pedigree in our league.

    Not seen anything from anyone I'd regard as reliable on matters Forest (Percy, Ornstein, either Taylors, Romano, the mail chappy - Collomose?)

    Definitely not true Donny; someone mentioned Ollie McBurnie on here the other day & we didn’t get an outpouring of Yaarkshire bile.

    But you want to be careful; I was accused of “un-necessary aggression” for telling Jim he is professionally gloomy.

    I predicted three in Dan N'Doye, Douglas Luiz (pretty sure he will be here this week). And the bloke from Athetico on loan. I have since revised this and think even though that is a possibility I am going for Baby oil man. And No Not P-Diddy but Armand Traore.

    Chicago: Slip Sliding away.

    Seems to be coming from the Juve end, presumably leaked by the club to get others to step up as they want a better deal than we're offering.

    Everton are spending a bit this summer, they've agreed 30M for Dewsbury-Hall and just had 35M turned down by Southampton for Dibling.

    How so?

    Are you on drugs again? Or is your holiday with Shady on the seaside freaking you out?

    You seem to be suggesting we are going to sign a 35 year old former left back who played for us between 2016-2018

    Oops Adama Traore. The baby oil got me
    Too excited.

    Chicago: Slippery.
