Heading is a pretty big part of any Centre Back's game, no?
-
Correct. My mistake.
-
Agreed, although if the Konsa reports are accurate he was right about a medical this afternoon.
-
Coulda told him going for the Big Smoke was a mistake.

If Twatter is anything to go by, they do, yes. After all the crap they've been through down the years, they are more cynical than we are. And the cynicism gene is twitching hard right now in the immediate aftermath of finally getting a good manager, only just missing out, etc. Only logical that the Chairman would choose to throw it all away in the face of such progress, or so the narrative appears to run...

Massive feel good factor among the fans, clear strategy moving forwards, club and squad united, players being bought as round pegs for round holes... Let's buy Delph.

I guess you would have hinted already. He just has that presence, doesn't he?
-
Also 'pay as you play' is THE ABSOLUTE OPPOSITE of young, hungry, with potential and (if necessary), resale value. He couldn't fit the mould any less than he does.

Got any inside info on KP @TrentVilla?
-
But are they paying fair market value for Dianne's tea trolley?

Totally agree and feel sure, we must have another potent striking option on our shopping list. Personally, I'd like it to be Maupay, as I think he could either play with, or as an alternative to, any of the front three positions. If not him, then someone of his ilk.

Have you heard anything?
-
Out vile demon. What is this sorcery of which you speak? We are Aston Villa and we rely on Ian Ormondrod... only to fire us to glory.

Like who? You have special insights, so I'm all ears

Hard not to wonder if 'journalists' like Nixon have any concerns about lying or making stuff up. I mean, we all understand the pressure to produce what our paymasters want, in order to keep our jobs, but if doing so fundamentally undermines the nature of that job, then surely some self respect kicks in and you'd be having doubts about carrying on.

Not that ITK given he enabled the Brexit shit show whilst being certain it wouldn't happen. One of Villa's more embarrassing supporters.
-
Over the last 5 seasons he has averaged 14 matches and 4 goals in the the Premier League and is always getting injured. Is that enough of a return, even as a back up option?

He doesn't fit the new, 'young with potential to develop' criteria no, but in another post you made recently Trent, you acknowledged our limited remaining budget in an expensive market, so I think Cahill could be the exception that breaks the rule. Young and hungry is the way to go, but we have virtually zero Prem experience in the team at the moment, he's 'free', knows the club and Terry and has an eye for goal, as well as still being a very decent defender. Admittedly, lost some pace, but all in all, a good punt.

Strictly true, but feels pretty unlikely given the hype.
-
So Smith is wrong on this one?
-
Why small time, your description of their strategy is smart, surely?
-
I love McGinn for all the same reasons you do and don't think he will be leaving just yet... But, without our biased claret and blue goggles on for a minute, what do we think is a fair assessment of his limitations? Personally, I wonder about his speed. And some of those seemingly off balance shield/turns were genuinely thrilling when they came off against poor Championship opponents, but will he just get squashed in the Prem?
-
If he joins, we'll be there or thereabouts
