How old is Maicon now?

I see Tony Barrett said to expect a few massive surprises between now and tomorrow night, moves that no-one saw coming.

In relation to us or generally?

Ditto.

Generally - that's why I put it in the 'general' section

Yeah, tomorrow should be fun! Unless it's all us struggling to offload Carroll and Chelsea signing Cavani and co anyway. But theres gonna be players going at 8 o clock that havent even been linked with a move away all summer, deadline day is boss.

He plays RB doesn't he? Do they really need him when they've got Richard and Zabaleta? Can/does he play LB too?

He's an out and out right back and will certainly play there should he join

But Richards is inconsistent and frequently a bit crap. Maicon is also brilliant going forward. A lot of top teams value the ability to go forwards from there as much/more than out and out defensive ability.

Yep it is

I see Villa are going to solve their woes by signing Chesterfield striker Jordan Bowery.

Who wants to take a punt at the big/surprise transfer of the day then? Rooney?

I don't think he's even a member.

I think they will flog him but next summer. Difficult to say what the surprise could be.
