  1. Think he got injured and his release clause went up a lot. So no. On Abde - seems like they want to move him on to sign Felix. He looks pretty rapid and would be another wide player, primarily from the left so doesn’t solve the lack of cover for Watkins.
  2. Will never forget that debut against Norwich. Probably the best youth debut I’ve seen. How didn’t get a goal that day I’ll never know. All the best Keinan.
  3. Time to sell Keinan was after the Forest season, think we set the price too high and unfortunately scared everyone else away. Seems a very good buy for £1m though for Hull. And £5’m for Philogene tbh but I’d guess the buy back is heavily in our favour there so it’s a glorified loan really.
  4. First time to Villa park? “Management” been trying to address these issues for most of my life. It’s an impossible task - no human alive can solve this problem.
  5. 9 days left - if Philogene and Archer are leaving you have to expect one more attacking signing. Id really like another wide midfielder to provide cover to JJ as well. No links there though. Monchi is going to be a busy boy.
  6. Fabio having a Villa shocker this summer if this thing falls through. Said he was on way to sign the contract last night.
  7. Makes sense. Would there be anything to stop us doing the same again next summer. eg. we dont take up the option to buy but agree another season long loan with similar fee. Roma would be fuming but is there anything to stop it if it works for both clubs eg Villa and Galatasary.
  8. Can someone catch me up on the story? From what I understand his girfriend released a series of pictures showing a beating she says he gave her and then an audio of him raping her? She then dropped the charges and they got back together and are having a baby. Is that correct or have I got some stuff wrong.
  9. Home leg stays at the same time according to this. https://myoldmansaid.com/time-change-for-aston-villas-trip-to-hibernian-confirmed/
  10. Welcome to the ECL! Turn up everyday at 7.45 and one day you’ll catch a match.
  11. Thought that was a Demi special for a minute but it’s actually a perfect sentence. Carry on.
  12. Other than the last 20min when the whole team fell apart I thought he was one of our better players. Will leave conversation now and read no replies.
  13. Might not be a bad shout, kinda makes sense. Said elsewhere that Boehly is forcing a reckoning either for the league or Chelsea. Looking more likely the league will break before Chelsea at this point.
  14. Kind of worrying how many of our players seem to be on planes. Presumably he’ll be playing LB against Everton?
  15. Can’t see either Luton or Shef Utd being able to pay what he’s worth. Tricky deal to get done I think.
  16. Turning into a horrow show summer for Palace. Terrific end to last year and they go and lose Zaha and Olise for £35m. Going to need some very shrewd moves and some excellent management from Roy or they could easily find themselves in trouble.
  17. Mmmm wasnt exactly a big name when we signed him. Nobody had ever heard of him and even the fans from his own club in Belgium were saying he was too raw and not ready for PL. They were very wrong happily.

    Chelsea

    Given some of the crazy transfers fees they have been paying that is a hell of a bargain. Amazed there wasnt more competition but maybe he's made it clear that is the only place he wants to go. Chelsea apparently content that everything they are doing is within FFP. Be very interesting to see how that all works out because every other club will be on them like a hawk. Very unclear to me how this can be possible within the rules.
  19. He strikes the ball like a young Gary Gardner.
  20. Literally every season people go into the last week thinking the REALLY big signing is still to happen. And it basically never does. Who was the last big name player we picked up in the last week of a window?
  21. I’m still working through all the missed pages. Seems like Jack Harrison is nearly done.
  22. I think there is a reason Diaby is being kept 30 yards away from the defense. From what I've seen from his tackling so far which backs up the Bundesliga stats is that he makes Bailey look like Roy Keane. So I dont see him playing any deeper than he is now. I can see that team being used but more in a 4-3-3 where it makes sense as a game plan against the opposition.
  23. Good news we’re close. Seems like a deal with plenty of upside. His goal is to be better than Bailey, a kid who’s never played in top flight of any league and not get an ACL. Shouldn’t be the highest bar but who knows.
  24. Because they are top of the FFP league. The ONLY league that matters.
