  1. 2 more signings hopefully and we're set for this season. We need the forward players to gel and hit the ground running. A high potential centre half to develop like Konsa would be perfect, maybe Tuanzabe would fit the bill. A top midfielder would be great too and spend big here for quality. El Ghazi and Traore will provide competition from the bench this season, I'd imagine.
  2. I missed the broadcast was it on Craig Butlers show?
  3. I'd like to see a midfield 3 of Sanson/McGinn/Nakamba or Luiz a solid working 3 similar to Liverpool with a fluid 3 up front
  4. A real John Gregory signing. Top player who instantly improves us. 2 more of these please.
  5. Sky saying he's still training at Villa this morning, you really are a total bluffer or you're Sam Lee!
  6. Still training with Villa today? I read somewhere that Sky mentioned he was still with Villa in West London this morning.
  7. Look at the news around villa yesterday, our star player and talisman is about to leave for 100m and every other fan of other clubs are talking about Villa as a progressive ambitious club. The timing of the Bailey and Ings deals were perfect, the tone on this board has changed hugely too. Villa will move forward again this season. From a PR perspective, we look like a club going places.
  8. If he leaves on a free and we're challenging in Europe, he'll have done his job. He's a player who can impact right away, we've got fantastic youth players to hopefully take his place.
  9. Reminds me a little bit of when Utd bought Van Persie and he was crucial that season. I can see the same with Ings, even if we only get 2 good seasons out of him, his influence, ability and know-how should hopefully see us in a position that we can upgrade again on him.
  10. Time for a switcheroo and send Matty Cash to City, we might need a new right back though.
  11. Agree, needs to be proven quality in the 30-40m bracket, 2 of them and from major leagues where the risk of failure is lessened.
  12. If he does go for 100m, the upside is that there's more opportunity for the club to move forward quicker than if he stays, however he's a genuinely world class player and he's ours, we won't be able to sign a player of that quality in the immediate future, but we can build a better more balanced team.
  13. It's in the speculation thread, but that reddit fella is saying Jack is 100% staying.
  14. I'd be very surprised if we are spending 30-40m on a player to be backup/competition to Ollie. We're not at that level just yet. I think we will buy or loan a forward, maybe even try to loan Tammy again. But spending those type of sums on a player who won't instantly improve our starting 11 doesn't make sense to me. 40m on a starting mf who is better than what we've got instantly makes us a better team.
  15. If we are in for Tammy, then that to me sounds like they're planning on Jack staying. If Jack is to leave, we'll buy a new MF/AM im sure.
  16. Not sure on Tammy, a good player, but would prefer sign a player that instantly improves our first 11 like Bailey and Buendia will. If we sign Tammy and still have funds to put 40m on a starting midfielder then great.
  17. Whatever happens with Jack, this is the greatest post of all time
  18. Done deal then, bid accepted, Jack is gone. Nope. Media haven't a clue, look how soon we made a statement on the bailey deal.
  19. I watched a few mins of it earlier, he mentioned grealish and talked about how Jack, Bailey, Watkins buendia would be a fantastic forward line. I don't think he genuinely has any info on grealish. I also have no doubt they see this as a possible stepping stone, however he did say villa are a team on the up and even if grealish went they'd spend another 100m on talent anyway so he expect Bailey to playing with loads of quality either way.
  20. Controversial, but I don't see much difference in quality between him and Emile Smith Rowe. I was never sold on ESR, never been particularly sold on Cantwell either though.
  21. If he's good enough in training he should be getting minutes, same goes for all the young players. Looks the most likely right now, with Traore not ready and trez out he has a chance.
  22. Was like watching him in his prime taking the ball down that left channel, very impressive today. Looks a great pickup on a free, even if it's mostly providing cover.
  23. It's just a poorly worded tweet, he expects Jack to sign a 5 year deal at City next week.
