    Any of you lot who are even 1% considering offloading Kamara have totally lost it. 

    He is absolute quality, and it is utterly essential that we keep players of his standard if we are to even think about cracking top 6. 

    A couple of poor performances (not even that  bad) and suddenly a group of guys on here have forgotten the multiple world class ones from last season where he was comfortably our best player. 

    Have a f**king lie down. 

    👏👏👏👏 this place is bonkers at times 🤦‍♂️ come on here after the Newcastle defeat & its was burning 🔥 jumped quickly off to watch a film 🤣

    Personally don't understand it at all. Why are we looking at a LB when our RB put in an absolute 1/10 performance at the weekend has been our obviously most replaceable player for 2 seasons now and has no real competition. 

    Maybe Emery doesn’t rate Digne for what he wants out of a LB, Digne is totally different to Moreno, maybe there is an opportunity for Digne to leave but that's based on us replacing him 1st. I get the right back issue & Cash needs competition & I do think we're working on something regards that, I like cash, he does have his bad games but he also has some great games, hopefully be more consistent this season, its a massive season & everybody needs to be on it if we're to get close to the top six & try & make a final

    Digne is better than him though.

    Really ? I think Acuna looks a better defender & is more aggressive, I'll give Digne can put a better ball into the box but Acuna isn't bad at it, he will bring leadership & he wouldn't be on Luca Digne wages. But hey that's my opinion & we are all entitled to an opinion 👍

  4. Never slagged him off & always thought we have a player here & 🙏 he would come good this season especially after signing his pal Diaby, but if this is true & the club have sanctioned some rest time in warm weather to help him recover & he has been caught on a Jet Ski & chased by authorities 🤦‍♂️ not sure this will go down well at Villa HQ it maybe time to let Monchi work his magic & get some sort of fee for him & cut our losses & Philogene a crack in his place.

  5. My view on the game for what its worth ....

    Fast start by Newcastle, & deservedly took the lead, thought we reacted well & equalised, it was fine margins 1st half 3 big chance for both teams Newcastle took 2 of them we took just the 1. Massive blow 1st half regards Mings hoping & preying it's not season ending 😢 big blow if it is. Onto 2nd half & we'll it was poor defensively but I put that to Mings off injured & Konsa been moved into a back 3 with Carlos & Torres who I don't think have played many minutes together as yet. Not a turning point but if Cash converts that chance at 3-1 to make it 3-2 it may have got Newcastle nervous but hey ho, having a day to think about it this result could do us more good in the long term, still have time in window to add to sqaud & he will tweak ways of playing due to the personal we have available, don't forget also we had Moreno, Ramsey, Beundia & an hour without Mings yesterday, take 4 big players out of any team in the Premiership that would disrupt any team. Think we need a couple of new additions in the forward line & maybe now another centre half, Cash needs competition, not saying get shot of him but he was not at the races yesterday for what ever reason. & as for Bailey I've stuck by him & hoped he would come good but think Philogene has to start ahead of him now.

  6. The perfect replacement for Mings as in size & aggression, sure will find out now how well his injury has healed, gutted for Mings colossal player for us & hope it's not a season ending injury let alone a career ending one

    Yeah, I just caught up to that bit 😆

     

    I’m really not keen but if it happens… do we need or bring ANOTHER CB? Or just a RB? Fresneda has been mentioned again…

     

     

    I would like us to get past the point where Ty is so essential for us… always lost and vulnerable when he hasn’t played… hoping we’ve strengthened enough to mitigate that now… I felt Diego could be the man to counteract that effect…

    Not sure maybe would of at the start of window brought in another alongside Torres if Carlos was still struggling but think Emery has been impressed with Chambers by all accounts so maybe we let Carlos go recoup some money & go with what we have. Shame as really rate Carlos beast of a centre half.

    According to Paddy, on the Love of Paul McGrath podcast (season preview), a club has bid for Diego Carlos and negotiations are ongoing…

    Personally, I don’t want to see him leave and I want to see what he can offer..

    If it happens, it might suggest that we’re bringing in a RB with Konsa predominantly being played at CB…?

    Pretty sure it's Inter Milan

  9. I would go Mcginn in the front 3 away at Newcastle & bring Tielemans into the midfield 3 .... Beundia would be on the bench for me in this game & it's not that I don't rate him just think we look stronger with the other line up & Newcastle is up there with the toughest awY days in the Prem.

  10. Or is it that Beundia has had a ACL injury & were getting this lad in as cover for that injury 💁‍♂️ just a thought still think Beundia injury is bullshit but hey ho what will be will be.

  11. Depending on when the pictures were taken on the official site regards training (Beundia in those pics) & then if he has had an injury the time it takes to determine wether he has a ACL Injury. Didn't Walsh for England at the wemons World Cup was determined not to be a ACL & that took a fair few days & Diego Carlos last season that was well over a week if I remember right to determine the injury. May have picked up an injury but I'm calling bullshit that it's season ending one

  12. Under no circumstances do we sell Dougie the guy is one of the best all round midfielders in Europe & is integral to our midfield, he is a joy to watch on the ball & think he will be even better this season & hasn't hit his peak yet. Wouldn't swap him for anybody, I'm struggling to find a better midfield 3 of Dougie, Kamara & Tielemans in Europe, didn't he sign a new contract last year ? Unless people are offering £100 million + he ain't going anywhere (Arsenal set the bar getting Rice for £105 million) & I wouldn't swap him for Rice either. & come on lads Spurs ? As if he'd swap us for that basket case of a club 🤦‍♂️
