  1. Could we? Can’t think of too many LBs from the premier league who have had a better season than him. 20m is the price of a championship standout(if that) these days. I’d be perfectly happy with Digne and Moreno going into next season, with Chrisene and Sousa on loan.
  2. This is more about getting ahead of the speculation about other teams pursuing him, not allowing distractions and just generally having the good vibes flowing with so many extremely important games coming in the next month. For once, this is great PR from the club.
  3. The deal was something like 10 mil up front and another 10 mil only if Sheffield survive. If they don’t then Villa don’t get the other money and are obliged to buy him back for, say 8 mil. So, essentially, it’s been a 2 mil loan.
  4. So proud of our Villa! What a wonderful season. Emi is a true legend. Lille are a very good team, probably the best we’ll play against in this competition.
  5. So the Villa win a european quarterfinal and instead of celebrating it I’m feeling horrible because Arsenal, Liverpool and West Ham couldn’t win. What has football turned into these days..
  6. This could have been Unai's Stoke moment, but he just refused to allow it. No curse, bad luck, injury or anything will stop him.
  7. Well let’s hope we end up paying the full 15 mil.
  8. Not impressed by his movement and work rate.
  9. But of course. I've been wrong on many a player. Surely everyone on message boards have, we're not scouts. Which is why I find it so weird to have a very strong opinion on someone who is a complete unknown. Also, I'm not defending the specific bid for Rogers, nor the player's ability. I know nothing about him. I've literally watched him once. I defend the transfer logic - we don't have room with FFP, we can't go and sign players for the first team (supposedly), so we're taking chances on talented young players instead. Lottery tickets for small change. Not all of them will be good, most probably wouldn't and Rogers might be terrible, it's possible. But if they've scouted well and if one of these is a hit it'd be huge.
  10. Why would you think it's a signing for the sake of it and not because they've scouted him, have the inside scoop from Harrison and genuinely like him. This is a weird hill to die on. That's just like .. an opinion. Surely logic suggests there's a possibility you could also be wrong, so this crusade you've been on has been quite bizarre.
  11. Perhaps not. But we don't have the resources that other teams around 3rd have. Tottenham can afford to go and spend 100M in january, we can't . So we have to take risks with younger players like this lad, the serbian kid and others. If 1 of 3 pans out it'd be a win. Unless we achieve champions league revenue we couldn't compete on the market and in order to get there we'd have to overachieve, not outspend the rivals.
  12. Eh Blues missed out. Should have waited a couple more weeks. Mate.
  13. Apparently he wanted that fresh interesting challenge, playing in the champions league too. He probably gets paid way less than what premier league teams could offer. Grass isn’t always greener though.
