    Would anyone take Nic Jackson in return with some cash coming our way maybe? He had a pretty decent first season despite being meme’d a lot. He’s also worked under Emery as well and I’m sure he done well when Emery coached Villarreal

    Personally I’d prefer the cash return due to FFP etc

    Don’t think he’d want to come here as a backup regardless…

    Chelsea players all seem to believe their hype… they’re not all as good as they think they are.

    Another thing with this… if it’s a low cost deal… we raise his value with his time with us and then sell him on for a tasty profit?

    Will do you one better than that. If the speculation is true about it being connected to a player, probably McGinn (but in truth, McGregor), but possibly Emi, this is a pretty solid bet for the new home kit

    Bravo… I could actually imagine him doing something like this too 😆

    Is there any genuine interest in Duran or is this just fan speculation? 

    West Ham wanted him on loan in Jan, Chelsea interest has been ongoing and his agent backed it up in a recent interview and said Poch leaving had no effect on that.

    Doesn’t necessarily mean he’s going anywhere though…

    Signing a player with great stats on the EA/FIFA game would probably help with shirt sales if we wan't reach the gamer crowd who don't care all that much about clubs but follow players instead. 

    A popular and top quality foreign player from an “untapped” country or market too… in the same way Spurs have and benefit from Son.

    Mitoma? Kang-in?

    Or a high profile player or name too but 💰

    One more rodeo Leo? 😂 🏆

    As South American agent interviews go...that's not too bad.

    This sounds like a Vidagany gig. Sitting down with daft Jhon and his daft agent and saying sorry...this current squad role is perfect for you. You can't handle leading the line yet because of this and this and this and this. And Watkins does all of it, even if you're probably a better goalscorer. Do you understand? But you know, say it in a nice way.

    If they disagree, we can probably find a good move financially for Villa. And Duran's career success will become a coinflip instead of a sure thing.

    Worth a try… and great shout on Vidagany, is he the kind of kid and player who benefits from the “around the shoulder” approach? Hope so.. but I bet we’ve already tried this, multiple times…

    I would love it to work out, for him to stick with us, I’ve liked him ever since he arrived (an actual character and personality, entertaining, seems good hearted)… maybe he needs a better support group?

    Can we bring his family over? As Dougie has with his? Do everything possible to help him settle and be comfortable.

    He’s young and has so much to offer, the potential is obviously there. I want his future to be with us but things aren’t always that simple.

    -

    I do wonder about a couple of things…

    What exactly did John mean by: “come on big man, have some respect”?

    and… hardly anyone seems to celebrate with him or he doesn’t seem close with any/many players…

    the one guy he regularly seemed to chat and have a laugh with was Zaniolo and now he’s off…

    wonder if Bailey has tried to mentor or help him (looks like it)… I think big Emi would be ideal for that. Obviously hard to see what’s actually going on and how things are behind the scenes.

    We’ve also signed another young Colombian so maybe they can strike a friendship and help each other out…

    He’s a young kid coming from a different country and culture, I do have sympathy for him… but he’s got to see the big picture and appreciate the club that’s given him this big opportunity… patience lad, work hard, listen and bide your time…he’s lucky to play for us and learn from an elite coach & manager in Unai. Don’t waste or reject such a wonderful experience…

    Actually it just collided with Carew’s penalty kick vs Newcastle so has fallen out of synchronous orbit.

    Joao Felix is the new Defoe/Benni McCarthy isn't he? Every single window.

    It's obvious he doesn't want to play for us so I'd steer well clear as that's how dressing room morale tends to decrease. Look at some of his antics trying to force the Barca move.

    4 goals in 16 games for Chelsea. 10 goals for Barca in 40 so very mediocre stats these days.

     The player's representative, Jonathan Herrera, in an interview with El VBar Caracol, clarified the situation of the 20-year-old striker
    Quote

    "He is a player who has a contract with Aston Villa, he ended up doing things very well and the master counts on him, it is a club that having gotten into the Champions League is a great opportunity, but we know that he wants to play, he wants to go out to play, let's see. Now the market is opening, the club is seeing some options and so are we."

    Quote

    Asked about Chelsea: "Interest has always existed. The fact that Pochettino continues or leaves the club (it should not affect), the one who wants it in the end is the club. He is a player who changes coach or not, it is something that we will see what happens, but there has always been an interest. Let's see what management can be given to him and that Aston Villa is ready."
