ROY'S HAPPY TO SEE DOUBLE
HOTLINE

Fulham have made Steve Sidwell a £3million target as Roy Hodgson prepares a double swoop on ASTON VILLA.
Sidwell, 27, has been on the bench for much of the season and it is believed Villa boss Martin O'Neill could be willing to sell at the right price.
The Europa League finalists are unlikely to spend big in the summer despite this season's heroics and Hodgson wants former the dark side man Sidwell in his central midfield.
Hodgson also wants to clinch a permanent deal for Villa left-back Nicky Shorey - a team-mate of Sidwell's at Reading - who has had a successful loan spell at Craven Cottage since January.
Fantastic move if it happens. Murphy looked really sharp after resting last week....we need depth in central midfield badly.
good player sidwell.
