I like a rumour about a player I've never heard of, it gives it some kind of interest and even credibility.
Today's new goalkeeper rumour is from Sky Sports, who can be quite hit and miss but always unearth some player link you won't get anywhere else.
Step forward 18-year-old Sergio Asenjo, the Real Valladolid goalkeeper. Apparently he's got a buy-out clause of €5.5m (£3.3m approx) and he's played 22 games this season.
He turns 19 next month (can you tell I've been on Wikipedia?) and only conceded 1 goal in his first 5 appearances for Valladolid.
He sounds quite promising but apart from what Wikipedia tells me I don't really know much about him. If he's as good as he sounds then he could be a better bet than Scott Carson.

I Think i could be better than carson given a years training.
I had a look at the news links to this player on sky sports.com and apparently Barcelona and Everton and a couple of other 'top'ish clubs were interested! If he did sign for us, it'd be one for the future, as i think 18 years old is a little too young to be playing regular Prem and Eurooean football! Sounds a better bet than Carson though!
Him and Carson in the same team would be interesting. Would be competing which eachother for the first team spot for the next 17 years lol
I could play better then carson with straws instead of arms and balloons instead of hands.
another pearl of wisdom from taglor! but i think its a bit harsh you should at least make it sound like you would be at a disadvantage. Carson does have straws as arms and balloons instead of hands. he also has tombstones for teath and a plastic wig. but we aren't all perfect.
Lets start a new disussion below. Features of the villa squad..
Carew has soap bars for eyes.
I Want villa to change there benches we look like the poor club with the wooden seat poor routledge & salifou can't play because of splinters in there ars.es
Gabby Agbonlahors ears are visible from outer space, as is Zat Knights fat arse.
Salifou has a subs bench for an ass.
Wow, we are being linked to some really interesting Goalkeepers today! As a huge la liga fan(due to family roots) I must say that Sergio has had a good season. He's made a few mistakes here and there but that's to be expected from an 18year old. With a better team behind him(Villa) he could go far.
I still like Carson though, he's got David Letterman's teeth!
barcelona tried to loaan him in jan when jorquera got injured, might be a good prospect but IMO we'd still need someone else as well
Stilian Petrov perspires that much he can fill Bartley Green reservoir 100% pure man sweat in 4hrs flat!! :D
Wilfred Bouma has a bowling ball head.
In order to raise transfer funds - Gabby agbonlahor and Zat Knight will be combining to perform the lead role in a play about Dumbo the eliphant.
Reo-Coker Buffers his head with a chamois leather

Osboure looks like the candyman and has a meat hook instead of a hand! Call Osbournes name out 3 times while standing in front of a mirror and you will see for yourselves!
Osbourne looks like the alien in those famous movies about aliens. I cant remember the name of this alien movie but I think it was 'Monsters in outer space'
Marlon Harewood, aka 50 pence head :)
