  1. Plus he’d be burning all his bridges should the deal fall through for some reason
  2. Ok, assuming they want/need £20M for Ty, is it worth trying to get value added? Are there any Bournemouth fringe players worth tacking onto a deal? Personally the overall transfer fee seems to me to matter less than the wage costs, as that is the bit we’re on the hook for over the next 3 years or whatever. Either way, let’s get it done folks. Ty wants in, we want him in. No brainer.
  3. Just seen that the Birmingham Mail has ‘reported’ the mock up concept kits in here. Meta or what? https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/gallery/aston-villa-kappa-concept-kits-16470391
  4. Thanks, man. I just learned a new word!
  5. Weird thing is that I don’t normally like it. I hated the spurs kit from last year, but for some reason I like that third strip. Maybe it’s the black/blue thing.
  6. I know, and i’m certainly not panicking yet, but...well let’s call it a slight concern. My bum is not yet squeaky, but it’s developing a slight hum.
  7. Must admit that whilst I get that people are worried about getting value for money, i’m starting to get a little concerned about whether we’re actually gonna be able to field a defence next year. I know there is still plenty of time left, but our squad still needs a hell of a lot of work, and I did think we would have seen a couple more bodies in. We’re still nowhere near where we were last year.
  8. Oooh. Interesting. Not that you’re able to say, but I’m hoping it’s the gradation at the bottom of the third kit.
  9. I would be more than happy if this was our quiver of kits for next year. Absolutely love all three.
  10. I’m not sure ‘glory supporter’ and ‘Aston Villa’ can be used in the same sentence. ‘long suffering’ and ‘why o god why do I do this to myself’, maybe.
  11. Yeah, agreed. Honestly though, I think Mings would be the most important business we do this summer. On this one occasion I’m not too fussed if we pay over the odds. He was fundamental to our success and to bringing us as fans together and behind the team last year.
  12. Nah, from Bournemouth’s perspective it’s just business. They have a commodity we want, so they set the terms. Unfortunately that’s the world we live in now.
  13. There’s a drinking game here somewhere. Downside is that if you read the Birmingham Mail when you’re playing you’ll wake up in casualty.
  14. We just need to convince Tyrone to put in a transfer request. That would force Bournemouth’s hand and bring the price down. He won’t, just in case he ends up at Bournemouth, but it would help.
  15. Wow, he has clearly never, ever seen us play.
  16. No question. If we line up next year with that defence and GK, we’d be going for the lowest points scored record.
  17. If the financial stuff is true, then it’s pretty damning. I must admit that I was wondering if some of the vitriol against Xia was over the top, but borrowing against the parachute payments and leveraging our assets for a one off run at the big time is an unsustainable s**tstain worthy of our sponsors.
  18. I want to see what El Ghazi can do with a decent left back behind him! Could be a proper weapon.
  19. Have I missed anything? Has this been announced by the club yet?
  20. If that’s the case, I reckon we’re gonna be in for a goal scoring wide forward this window. It also allows Jack & John to tear defences a new A-hole.
  21. Now we’re linked in the press with loads of players again, after years where no-one gave a toss, I guess it’s time for someone to say: ITSOTP
  22. That has to go to McGinnho though right? No. 9 for me is special, and more recently has not been given to players anywhere near worthy of it. Big Wes at No. 9. He’ll be a freaking hero.
  23. Cripes. Ambitious. Our record transfer fee casually laid out on a rainy thursday afternoon. Who saw this coming? (nb if true ) Sorry I just saw that Darren Bent was 18 rising to 24M so maybe not quite record.
