Miss you Bertie
-
Look great again today
-
I can't fathom how he has turned into the player that frustrates me the most in game - jack leaving has an effect for sure, El Ghazi-itis was a great phrase @MWARLEY2 - he has not looked like he wants to pass to Ings all season
-
A Danny Ings style shock announcement would be great wouldn't it Good shock, not Mcleishesque.
-
No worries - thanks for confirming
-
Enjoy the pod on Spotify whilst working - apologies if this has been covered earlier in the thread but do any of the regulars aside from yourself post on here/under what usernames? - thanks
-
Noticed a few occasions where he has been open to finish off a move and the ball hasn't quite found its way to him / wasn't passed to - more to come from Ings for sure as other players get used to him more, and that is seriously exciting after his truly impressive start with us - great player
-
Interesting post game from Shakespeare on sky, explicit about promoting from within where possible
-
I think despite what we may think as hardcore Villa fans - Its my opinion that we are probably still a lot harder to sell to a young player on the continent than Spurs for example. Not the case anymore for youth level starlets in the UK at least anymore - will take time for our profile etc to match for normal transfers, we will get there but will take time
-
Gutted - really felt Bertie was going to shine the next few weeks
-
Careful - general krulak will be on his way
-
What better description to persuade any doubters!
-
Jerknalist
-
He wouldn't hear me - hearing side of his game has gone downhill in the twilight of his career
-
I'm hearing Benni McCarthy
-
If Ings plays as SS, Bertie could come into play covering this position too - his success abroad as a "striker" was as SS I think. He got better defensively as the season went on IMO also
-
Haven't thought of it in this way - Don Smith!
-
From the outside, it would seem crazy for Norwich to let Buendia and Cantwell, And Southampton JWP and Ings leave in one window - so close to the first game of the season too which makes me think they wouldn't happen - not everyone has the luxury of NSWE though I guess!
-
Don't get me wrong - would be delighted with Kamada et al, and do like the look of Damsgaard - exciting times for sure
-
I can see the thinking behind potentially adding JWP and Cantwell - their on pitch relationships with Ings and Buendia could mitigate the "throwing in loads of new players in one go leading to ruin " - one aspect to factor in perhaps.
-
Yeah - perhaps plan B/if Jack B in Man City Looks great before the Euros too in the mythic truth document that is the Youtube compilation is to be believed
-
Big factor would be how much desire he has to be playing/a starter at this stage of his career as he wouldnt be here
-
Been bracing for interest in our Copa America hero also to be honest - as you say, it comes with the territory with having great players As many have also said, inc @Made In Aston just now - we have to have faith the improvements in both the general recruitment team and youth set up will stand us in good stead whatever may happen with outgoings. Fingers crossed Jack and NSWE come out on Monday giving the 2 fingers to the rest of the footballing world UTV
-
Agreed, however, if Jack does go - any player is going to be a step down if viewed as a direct replacement
-
agreed - move would make more sense to us than it would the player himself potentially. If we can get any improvement on Engels then that would be great
