Or a burger.

Kidderminster Harriers striker Joe Lolley is close to signing for Championship side Huddersfield Town.

Sweet move that

[Lineker]

The agent of Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Lewis Holtby says his client could make a return to former club Schalke this winter in a bid to play more regularly. The 23-year-old has struggled to make an impact since joining Spurs a year ago and his agent Marcus Noack has suggested a return to the Royal Blues in a bid to boost his dwindling hopes of appearing at the World Cup in the summer. "Lewis is desperate to play, which is why we are looking intensively for solutions," Noack tells the Bild newspaper. "Schalke is an interesting option."

"Moyes in double Pogba/Vidal swoop"

Good luck with that one, David.

[brenchill]

I heard rumours on the radio he was looking at Pirlo, too, but he's just signed a new contract.

[Lineker]

Can't see Pogba doing that, he's already used Utd as a stepping stone to get a move to a big club once in his career.

[Lineker]

Celtic are looking to complete the signing of Norwegian midfielder Stefan Johansen. The 23-year-old arrived in Glasgow last night and is expected to undergo a medical later today.

Nemanja Matic has confirmed in an interview with A Bola that he is about to sign for Chelsea.

Are you in a position where you can guarantee that the game with FC Porto was your last game for Benfica?

Yes, it was my last game. I want to thank all the people in and around the club, and all the fans. Benfica will be forever in my heart. I’ve tried my best in every training session, in every game, and now is the right time to leave. I want to improve, to go back to the best league in the world, and back to Chelsea, a club which I like.

[METALMAN]

I wonder if he'll be as good as his brother, Nemanja Vidic.

[Adam]

Nikica Jelavic has signed for Hull, who have also agreed a fee for Shane Long apparently.

[brenchill]

Pretty good signings.

Would have taken either of them at Villa.

But , Villa transfers

[Dan]

Grant Holt has scored 2 Championship goals this season!

[brenchill]

Should've re-signed Heskey.

[Lineker]

Apparently the Holt deal is just a loan - presumably to cover Kozak's absence.

[brenchill]

Lambert has changed his transfer policy from "young and hungry" to "old and fat."

[METALMAN]

I'm sure Grant Holt is still hungry.

[Lineker]

He'll need to cut some extra cloth to cover all of Holt.

Ugh, don't get why Sherwood doesn't like him. Would be sad to see him go. Seen some talk of it as a loan, but I dislike the idea of that even more.

[brenchill]

Signing him has certainly brought any hope of progress to a Holt

[Jimmy]

Then, something I can't work out. John Gudetti has just signed on loan with Stoke City. If Villa needed a striker, why not go in for him? Had a fantastic scoring record at Feynoord.

And, more importantly, he isn't Grant Holt.
