English Premier League’s Aston Villa is believed to be trying to sign left-back, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Bridge-c36733 on loan from Manchester City. Bridge made the move to City from the Midlands back in 2008.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gerard-c14664 Houllier, the manager of Aston Villa said that his team is in need of some cover in defence, and Bridge would be an ideal man to step in till the end of the season.
Wayne Bridge, who moved to Manchester City from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Aleksandar-Kolarov-c4475, his chances have been limited at City. Aston Villa's manager confirmed
that the two clubs are in talks and he expected a positive outcome.
Houllier has already secured the services of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kyle-Walker-c21566, from Tottenham, on loan till the end of the season. The Frenchman said that he expects Walker to make a big difference in Villa's defence, and said that he may opt to play him in the game against
Sheffield United in the FA cup. The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luke-Young-c22938.
Wayne Bridge, on the other hand, is likely to be the replacement for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Stephen-Warnock-c34158. The defender has been down with an injury recently and missed the games against at Chelsea and Sunderland.
Aston Villa's manager has also shown interest in signing Jean Makoun, the defender from the French club, Lyon. Meanwhile, there are reports that West Brom has been showing interest in signing Aston Villa striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/John-Carew-c18841.
Aston Villa, though, needs Carew right now, and Houllier has also dismissed the rumours of him having issues with his striker. There is also the fact that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Emile-Heskey-c12468 will be serving a 3 match ban after his send-off, so Aston Villa need him even more in
the next few weeks.
Houllier admitted to having talks with West Brom but did not confirm anything about a possible move.
Houllier said, "I know at some stage there were talks with West Brom... I don't know where it will lead to.. But to me, Carew is an Aston Villa player and as soon as he is available and fit, I will be delighted to have him in the squad to play."
While at http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kevin-Doyle-c20719 has said that the win against Chelsea is not enough to take the tag of relegation favourites off their heads. The Wolves played an extraordinary game and beat the champions 1-0 at Molineux on Wednesday night. It was right after
a fighting win over Liverpool, but the striker has said that the team is keeping their feet on the ground and not at all getting carried away.
Doyle said that it is always great to have a win against big teams, but one win does not change much. The front man said that the whole team is focused on the bigger picture and have not forgotten that staying in the top division remains the top priority.
He added that it is always good to be out of the drop zone, and they would work hard to stay out, but there is still a lot of football to be played before they can feel safe in the Premier League for another season.
