  1. We can argue the price but the point being if it’s anything higher than 5m he’d be contributing positively to our FFP figures. Even if we got 15m for him that’s still 10m.
  2. Am I right in thinking if we sold Cash for say 25m this summer he’d be an FFP profit of 20m, based on his 5m book value? If that’s the case then that’s a no brainer for me.
  3. He looks good, sign him up
  4. The coloured logo looks like an arse farting. Monochrome all the way
  5. We got what we needed out of Grealish in the 100m we received from Man City. He's not a £100m player and we did well to rinse them of that much for him. The Villa/Grealish story should end there. Move on peeps
  6. Not specifically Villa Park related but as the Lucas Oil Stadium has been touted as a good bench mark and design for ‘New’ Villa Park, if and when that ever happened. I had a nosey at the colts websites and found the below virtual tour, gives you the view from anywhere in the stadium. Filled 10 mins of my life There’s no extract as such as it take’s you straight to the virtual tour itself so apologies mods if this breaches guidelines. Virtual tour of the Indianapolis Colts Lucas Oil Stadium
  7. Oops, my bad Still looks as good in the Adidas template, nice work. Also, random question, in your profile it says The Nock, that wouldn't be Cannock would it? Only ask as I'm originally from that neck of the woods (Wyrley)
  8. @Shaun Teales Moustache you still got that one you knocked up a while ago as that was toot sweet. Can you Adidas that bad boy up?
  9. I think the Lucas oil stadium is what we should aspire to (eventually), remove the big window and have the jolted end and the steps there. Anyone good on photoshop to do that, would look sweet as
  10. For me Frimpong would be a replacement for Cash. A Frimpong purchase wouldn’t and probably shouldn’t happen without Cash going out the other way. He’d be a massive improvement on Cash's forward play though. If, and it’s a big if, we go for Frimpong we’d need the DM to slot in at CB when he bombs on.
  11. No worries mate, hear you about the injuries we’ve had this season, Kamara especially. G. Rodriquez is just a player that I think fits us as a DM, he knows the two Emi’s and he’d fit right into position as he plays there for both Argentina (35 caps) and Real Betis. He’s on a free so it would be silly not to at least speak to him. He knows Acuna too, who we were linked to previously. He’s only on about 27k too. Hermoso is on about 136k though
  12. How about Florian Wirtz, just recovered from an ACL, don’t want him though due to him being injury prone? An ACL is a major injury but it doesn’t mean the player is then a dud to be avoided. If we do our due diligence there are players out there that could improve us, whether they’re coming back off a serious injury and not.
  13. Guido Rodriquez and Hermoso please. I’d also check out Martin Terrier at Rennes. He’s recovered from his ACL and is now bad in the team and scoring. He had 21 goals or something form LW/IF the season before his injury.
  14. Showing your age there @Blasterpocket68 nanoo, nanoo
  15. Joking aside it’s the partner deals we need, similar to those that Chelsea or Liverpool have. They seem to have partner organisations for anything and everything.
  16. How about a ticket to one of Emi’s BBQs as well
  17. With most of us not being able to get tickets these days without a season ticket how about a lottery where tickets to games can be won, perhaps with some player meetings, tunnel access etc. I’d buy a ticket
  18. For me Summer = deadwood out, savvy signings in (frees and cheaper players with contracts running down). Guido Rodriquez is back playing now after his broken leg, scored last time out against Villareal. He’d be a great signing for the DM role. Get his mate Acuna in also for LB and ship out Digne to Stevie G in Saudi. Others I’ve mentioned, who have contracts expiring in 2025, include Pavlidis, Geertruida and Veerman (2026). Geertruida might be too expensive for us though. If we could get Hermoso in on a free and Frimpong via his RC then that would be an amazing window. We might need to shift Cash if we were go after Frimpong though and for FFP reasons too.
  19. One or more of Otavio, Nico Gonzalez or Alan Varela would be my guess
  20. I wonder if, with our FFP situation we'll look to bring in mouldable younger players that will cost less but with Emery's coaching ability be made into star players. If we kept our core senior players it could work. There are plenty of potential gems out there that are ripe for the picking. That kid at Hull looks good (you see what I did there)
  21. I was an advocate for us signing him before Chelsea nabbed him. Him and Lesley Ugochukwu. I think Fofana has something about him but I'd like us t take a look at Karim Konate at Salzburg if we're after a young forward/striker.
  22. I’ve avoided here until now and get the bed wetting to some degree but we are where we are on merit. It’s still in our hands. Yes our form is a bit pants at present, which I put down to Torres and Kamara absences, more the latter. However, we’re above both Spurs and Man Utd and have been for some time. It’s always easier to chase down someone than lead. We just need to hold firm a bit and I’ll think we’ll bring it home (4th).
  23. Nervous excited for this one. It depends if we turn up against them as we did against City. If we do I think we’ll do well against them. If we play a bit lacklustre like we did against Luton then I can see us really struggling, especially if Maddison plays I’d be happy with a draw.
  24. Random question, if we were in for Frimpong, is he classed as homegrown due to be at city?
