useless Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Just remembered Viktor Johansson, there was a certain amount of sadness caused by the non-fulfilment of our hopes for him when he left, still at Leicester but never played for their first team and is out of contract next month, he's actually more than a year younger than Sarkić. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's quality... he can easily be 2nd choice right now. So much potential... Edited May 24, 2020 by Villan4Life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 4 hours ago, useless said: Looks to me like the ball is in our court a bit now. We've offered to extend his contract, but he's planning to leave, because he doesn't see a future with us. It's for us to persuade him otherwise (if that's still possible and if the club see it that way) or to accept that we've lost him and any potential future fee.

VillaJ100 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) Knowing our track record we'll sack him off and hell be the next Buffon. Not to worry though we'll probably get him back when he's about 42 Edited May 25, 2020 by VillaJ100 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Sorry to see him go - had high hopes for him. However we can't keep all the players - we have trust the club's judgement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesnt help that goalkeepers a specialist position, if a young outfield player you can always try move to another position for game time 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) Heaton, Steer, Reina, Nyland, Kalinić, and we've also got Ákos Onódi, Jamie Searle and Sinisalo coming through, all of whom were trainng with the first team before lockdown accordinig to Cutler.

mikeyp102 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 He’s the one I actually thought we’d push the most as seemed to be doing well in Scotland and getting international recognition. Looks like we’ve offered a contract, can’t really blame him for wanting to get first team football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reina is on loan, Kalinic is going, Heaton is getting towards the end of his career, Steer and Nyland are back ups so I think its worth trying to keep Sarkic for another seaon as he has potential.

If Heaton gets back fit he has about 4 years left, Steer and Nyland are good backups. Unfortunately Sarkic is better off moving on for his own career Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 I'd probably look to sell Nyland given his stock is higher now than this time last season. Heaton, Steer and Sarkic for next season and I'd say to Matjia with the regular injuries those two get you'll be getting games next season. If he's desperate to play week in week out as he seems then fair enough and we just keep the regular three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Had a look on Molineux mix to see what they make of the link and there's a poll on there asking who they'd rather win in our game against Sheffield United, why on earth would they need to ask that question.

useless Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 They don't normally have these polls, it's because they've got it into their heads that we're some kind of arch enemies of theirs so they have to question if they'd rather we lost despite it benefitting them if we won. When they weren't very good they didn't want a rivalry, and I'm sure if they revert back to their former selves they'll forget about us again.

AntrimBlack Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 I think it would be a mistake if he goes. We are pinning our hopes on Heaton, Nyland, Kalinic and Steer. Steer is the youngest at 27. I don't think any of them are PL quality. So much deadwood. We will probably have to buy in a keeper of Sarkic's age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 He'll probably go to Wolves and become one of the best keepers in the league. That's just the Villa way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
