    the main problem is that we're missing out on the realistic targets because Monchi spends 7.45 hours of his 8 hour day chasing the unrealistic ones

    Which is very good of him since he doesn't start work for us until July 1st

    No-one is a guaranteed starter but I think Kamara, Luiz and Tielemans (at his best) would be our most complimentary midfield three. However, I think we also need to move on from starters and squad players - the role of substitutes is much more important now and so we have a starting XVI rather than a starting XI. So subs who will / can expect to play an important role in most matches.  Then there are players who can offer specific alternatives for certain match situations or opponents and / or mainly expect to be used for injury, suspension, form or fatigue purposes.  In that sense Tielemans is absolutely in the first category rather than the second.

    Excatly this! Do we know what Man City's starting line up is? No we don't. It's all about having a great squad to choose from match to match. On a smaller scale that's what we will be doing

    Not really sure why, but Emi was on that podcast with Ian Wright and Dybala’s lady. When Emi said he wanted to bring more Argentinians she did say 'bring Dybala'. 👀

    She certainly did I remember her for some reason!!

    Xia. 

     

    All day long

     

    With Hollis, Krulak, Samuelson and  Wyness getting honourable mentions.

     

    Jesus we have had some charlatans associated with our club.

     

    Dark days.

    Samuelson should get more than a mention. A prison sentence would be more relavent

    Because every piece of speculation has no substance. It’s basically boiled down to: Villa are interested and will consider a move. People got suckered in by a Leicester fan on a wind-up too. Tielemans has many great qualities. But it doesn’t mean we explore our interest into anything substantial. I could be wrong. I just think had we wanted him, we’d have done so by now. Suspect we have different targets. 

    The window doesn't open until the 14th June and players contracts run out on 30th June so don't expect any announcements until then

    Doesn't mean there's nothing going on behind the scenes though!!

    Tyrone Mings never gets the appreciation ( outside of Villa ) that he deserves. Southgate is a mug to choose an underplayed Maguire instead of him. The press always pick up on the odd error he makes

    (never mention Van Dijks though). He has been an absolute rock and should be one of the first names on any England teamsheet

    Happily have Barnes in the squad, not sure I'd be willing to pay what he'd cost thou. Guessing £50m-£60m + £150k-£200k/w?

    Barnes or Asensio? Just asking
