Before today but especially now after De Zerbi’s comments this afternoon im really not that keen on the conference league it may not be worth the distraction from the league, besides at least the europa would be worth it but thats just my opinion so please don't come for my head.

Yeah exactly you look at our matchday sqaud and most the time your not that convinced but then you see us play and we are a TEAM, it isn’t particularly the players we have but its how we orchestrate ourselves and players knowing their exact role in Unai’s system, sides may have better players than we have but not a better TEAM. Now its time for the professor to strategically sign the players we need to progress and look more of a threat on paper and on the field. We need two forward players playing just off watkins that can get 10 goals each ideally that would be the grand plan. Mcginn is priceless at the moment and I remember around November saying i never want him to play again now im singing his name out loud. Guaranteed Starters Emi Martinez Tyrone Mings Alex Moreno John Mcginn Douglas Luiz Boubacar Kamara Ollie Watkins All other positions can be improved, but none of the above should lose there spot for next season unless form drops.

Nico Nico Nico Williams Will this be our main and primary target this summer, too many different articles for this to have no motion i think so definitely must be something in it. If anyone has been watching La Liga or in particular Bilbao just how consistent is here?. I believe we would pay a fee in the region of £35-£45M and the same amount for another forward player.

Top man appreciate it thanks

Defo not true ceballos no thanks

Can you not mention his name so soon after that late drama

My life i love this squad and my admiration for Unai Emery is through the clouds into heaven What a man and what a team he has engineered! just bloody refreshing and so good!! .. yes i was very angry when they equalised even threw the table , not so much angry at us but the fact that we deserved it way more because we were so disciplined, could have been a whole lot worse if we lost especially with 10 added minutes. These boys have done us proud no matter what happens next match, i feel overwhelmed as a villa supporter right now this club runs through my veins so these times mean everything to me, my grandmother is seriously ill who is like a mother to me, and the only thing putting a huge smile on my face right now is this CLUB UTV!!! Mings was outstanding today mcginn,Luiz and ramsey deserve special mentions too fantastic.

Dendocker i hope we havent got to resort to that bcos ur will be 5-0 before you can blink

Erm i dont think that would have been me but i do prefer nico out the two… but we need to be ambitious and snap up both , they are needed for each side of watkins and away we go… champions league contenders

Our midfield trio of mcginn,luiz,kamara should not be touched but more rotated quite regularly to allow for rest giving Lo Celso regular game time and so on, but we should get two forward players in both williams and torres, we need to snap up BOTH its very important that we do… how comfortable would everyone be with that squad below. A trio of Watkins, Torres & Williams would give me confidence in any game especially with that solid midfield and defence Major Signings Nico Williams (Ath Bilbao) £44M Ferran Torres (Barcelona) £43M Vanderson (As Monaco) £35M Giovanni Lo Celso (Spurs) £25M Mark Flekken (Sc Freiburg) £12M EST Total Spend - £160M Our outgoings should balance that to around £115M hopefully

Ref! id like to make a couple changes , ive now realized as ferran plays on the left id like us to buy both ferran and nico and swap wan bissaka for vanderson… we need to buy a CM too. Maybe Guendouzi but not for starter

In which case we dont need to spend heavy on a DM as its the last position we need strengthening along with GK

Who is there best player though?

True but also to consider everyone pretty much will have a max spend of circa 200-300m so if you have a owner worth £10bn quid who is willing to spend then its no different to the owner who has £100bn i.e a newcastle, its just gonna be a case of meeting that region to spend in which if reports are true we are part of. The next process is all about recruitment and strategy, so essentially that is more important than the money, look as far as arsenal and there season compared to chelsea to prove this right and maybe even Leicester while were on the matter.

No my friend

I like the idea of this team , if nico or ferran could play on the left then id choose them both and play whoever could do a job on the left.

And now the more I think about it im not sure this alemany guy is the man for us because hes just interested in big name players similar to how chelsea have operated this season bought a bunch of names which failed miserably , i wanted for us to get the guy from I think it was sevilla .. cordon ? Antonio cordon I think the name was correct me if im wrong… seems more stable, careful and precise in the profile of player he would look at. i certainly do not want us wasting money which i think we need to be very careful with.

You can be 26 and still over the hill just look at delle alli haha

Guendouzi not gonna be enough for where we are heading, asensio is over the hill so not much excitement it just sounds good i guess

Sorry but wheres douglas ?

Yeah i agree and id certainly prefer nico williams from bilbao or both

Is there a chance we can get both ferran torres and nico williams as I certainly do not wish to miss out on the latter and it appears we are moving heavy on ferran but could probably be nonsense

Your probably the closest to myself in terms of how we see the game, i echo everything said here , my only concern with otavio is height but again not major.

Believe me it is and anything like that is too destructive to the team and morale , way too many changes, i’m happy with bailey to swapped with nico williams and ramsey for someone in that position with superior quality and consistency and to wrap it up we need a new RB

Not realistic imo because we are not changing that many for now
