TRO Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 If we lose a player to Barcelona its much better than to losing them to our competitors in the top half of the table.....having said that we could be up there soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted August 14, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted August 14, 2015 He's only 19 but he's already bigger frame than Young/Sterling was at that age Bloke looks a beast Totally, he reminds me of the stature of Benteke at 21, a beast.

Popular Post TheMelvillan Posted August 14, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted August 14, 2015 Heres the thing as I see it. Villa have had some astounding players in its recent history. Yorke, Young, Laursen, Carew, Benteke etc (all subjective I know but bear with me). At the peak of their powers, how many times have Barcelona come in for a Villa player? None, Zero, Nada. So for us to lose Adama to Barcelone he is really going to have to outperform every one of our best past players. This can only be a win-win situation for the Villa 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stockier I think. Like a Maradona stockiness. Not unlike Shaquiri who just signed for Stoke. Or a modern rugby league fly-half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted August 14, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted August 14, 2015 The buy back clause is something that really doesn't bother me. Its unlikely he will be good enough to play for Barcelona again, and if he does he will have been amazing for us which will be a joy to watch. Let's just enjoy watching this lad develop and what will be will be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted August 14, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted August 14, 2015 Traore equals WINS against the bottom half teams. We are going to be top 10 this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like it. Can't see it taking off though. Its weird, football fans seem to only be able to sing a couple of songs now. I'm fully expecting... Ooooh adama traore...

Obviously they have their Stoke tinted glasses on, but we do the same. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
