From the BBC’s article on Traoré signing: “Having spent what could be up to £83m this summer, there is not expected to be any further big spending by Villa before the 5 October transfer deadline.”
-
If not mistaken, Traore left the summer that Rashica came in.

There was a private flight yesterday from Bremen to East Midlands airport. https://flightaware.com/live/flight/JCB1/history/20200915/1003Z/EDDW/EGNX Unfortunately, it was operated by J C Bamford and arrived in Bremen from Stockholm (and prior to that from a place called Trollhattan, which is a quite fitting city name in this situation...)

The RJW63 Official Jack Grealish Appreciation Thread
a-k replied to kevangrealish's topic in Other Football
I wouldn't read into it too much. The way I see it is that he never really wanted or planned to leave, but kept his options open to see what else might be available elsewhere and what the club's current doings and plans were. If he got a silly offer from elsewhere while the club started signing League Two players, then he may have reconsidered what he really wanted to do. Even in that case he might have thought long and hard about seeing himself in different colours and may not have liked it, but I think that approach is more than fair and quite a mature thing to do. -
Clinical finish. Shame all his detractors weren't in the crowd.

The issue was not that Wilson wouldn't score when on the pitch, it was the risk of him being crocked all the time. Can't score (goals) then!
-
Why not this? Two box to box midfielders with a front four that can swap throughout the match and play in any of those spots. Maybe have Luiz and McGinn a bit deeper than in the graphic. I haven't played Football Manager in a while, although maybe I need to start again...

The RJW63 Official Jack Grealish Appreciation Thread

Since we're quoting posts from the first page, here's another one that has aged well (in a different way...) -
Finnish, Hungarian, and Estonian all have similar grammar rules but with different vocabulary. The Finnish-Hungarian dictionary would be like an English-Icelandic version. Finnish and Estonian are more comparable...Estonians can generally understand Finnish, but Finns rarely know Estonian. Source: I'm a foreigner in Finland. In English: William Blueforest I tried to find some relationship between Christian Purslow and Finland, but this thread is actually the top hit on Google...

This is only my second post this year. Never heard of him, but his name sounds like someone we would have signed in the summer of Tonev/Okore/Helenius. I hope my contribution to the cause has been beneficial.
-
Agree. Don't understand why he's slated so much. His hold-up play is incredible.
-
Do we know when his buyback clause expires?
-
We heard that about another J.B... Joe Bennett
-
Or, our own player gets regular games to develop while another (who we don't and won't own) is just used as cover.
-
I would believe that's pretty common of that generation...
-
Made the Sky Sports Free Agent XI along side names such as van der Wiel, Mandanda, and Ibra.

If you moved to a new country (presumably with your family) for a job, to eventually find out they were under false premises and got completely thrown under the bus. Then to find out no one in the club cares, from the owner, CEO, head of recruitment, players, etc (e.g. if the fact that players Remi wanted were not actually contacted), would you not be f***ing pissed off? Not necessarily happy that he's going to cost the club more money but I am damn well with him in being irritated and holding out and trying to get as much as he can.
-
The board hung him out to dry in January and him continually picking these players is him sticking his middle fingers up at them. These are the players they left him with, you know, the ones who don't give a f*** anymore and continually make mistakes. I agree, I don't think the kids could do any worse, but it's a hostile environment out there right now and not the situation for them to get their feet wet in.

Didn't realize we were playing ourselves.

Makes the bench today. 17 year old who we signed on professional terms in December. Anyone know anything about him?!
-
Fair play to Micah for the chat, but are you really, really trying? Just watched their chance before our goal, where Okore had to get a late foot on it (around 16 mins). Left his man in space and to say he made a half-hearted attempt to get back to him is an understatement. Even if say it wasn't his man, if you see an opponent in on goal you bust your ass to get to him. Maybe you don't reach him, but when you've got a man sprinting at you it adds pressure to the shot.
