Possibly. I do remember however when Rafa tried to buy him before he went to Valencia. Baros won the golden boot thingy at the Euros and Valencia were tryin to sign him, they saw sense and bought Villa instead :-(.

Huh, who would have thought.
Yep, I vaguely remember that alright. That was probably another catastrophic fuck up on our part.
To be fair I think Villa didn't want to come.
Villa, Alves, Martinez etc all players we came very close to signing, the latter was the 'back-up' to fekin Aqua!
Good call Woland, he reminds me of Steve Heighway in that he's very quick, very intelligent and doesn't overdo the step-overs, fancy footwork etc. Southampton are also being strongly linked with Hooper of Celtic who I've been banging on about for a few seasons.
Edit: Sorry just realised it was Modo who suggested Buckley and not Woland - sorry peeps.

Will Hughes is supposedly the dog's bollix. I've seen him a few times and was not overly impressed BUT I'm gonna assume that was just bad timing on my behalf because some clips of him I've seen he looks quite a talent.
You mean Leeds?
Nah mate, as Pesam says his name is Will Hughes.
So has every club in the Prem. Fulham apparently had a bid turned down.
Schalke defender Benedikt Howedes has shelved contract renewal talks for the time being - which could tempt Premier League suitors into enquiring about him.
Manchester United and Arsenal have been linked with the centre-back in the past while Liverpool were rumoured to be interested in him last summer.

Liverpool make first move for Holtby but Schalke midfielder favours Tottenham
The 22-year-old midfielder, also a target for Arsenal, can sign a pre-contract agreement ahead of summer free transfer - but could still be sold by the German club in January

An albino kid from Leeds wouldn't be albino for very long.
FFS.
Yup I noticed him when we played them a few years ago. Though he was better than Downing.
High praise indeed
Hahaha...well considering his £20 million price tag etc, I thought how the fuck didn't we buy this lad who's causing us tons of trouble on the wing. And he was like 20 years old or something.
As most posters are aware I'm a huge fan of Zaha and I reckon he'll become a huge star; Ince, Buckley, Adomah (Bristol City), Henry (Millwall), Knockaert (Leicester) & Aluko (Hull City) are also probably capable of playing at EPL levels.
The talent in the lower divisions is criminally overlooked.
*I didn't include Sam Byram of Leeds in the list of wide men because Leeds aren't sure if he's a right back or midfield so I rarely get to see him play the same position twice in a row.
Have we signed Cavani yet?
You should seriously consider scouting as a permanent job. Or attend an open forum with Brendan and just hand him your list of players.
Brendan Rodgers has told fans not to expect too much activity in the remainder of the transfer window - but revealed there could yet be one more signing.
The Reds have already strengthened their attacking ranks with the early signing of England international Daniel Sturridge from Chelsea.
But asked about any further business at his pre-Mansfield press conference, Rodgers told reporters: "We are not going to have a lot of money to do anything [else] in the window.
"We won't have that in January. There might be another but there is not much more business to be done."

It would be the perfect job for me.
I'm watching Walsall v Portsmouth tonight although there will be precious little talent on show. Strangely the best 2 players on show will be WBA players as both teams have an Albion player on loan and they're both decent (at 1st divison level).
