I expect they see the manager/owner as a transient thing anyway Well that depends on what your motivation for playing football is, and in what stage of your career you are. But sure if you are similar to N'Zogbia, Sinclair and that ilk I agree. And then it is the club signing them who needs their head checked out.

Robbie09 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Who I'd keep goalkeeper - none of them defence - lyden, Amavi , okore midfield - Gana, Gil, Veretout , traore, Westwood forwards - kozak, Ayew , Gestede but knowing villa we will get rid of the good ones and keep the shit ones I'd add Clark, Sanchez and Grealish to your list Richard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 If Distin fancies one final pay day I'd give him a year. Would join the long list of players I've always wanted to see play for us....5 years later than they should've joined. I think Morrison from Albion would be a very good signing, him or Charlie Adam, we need central midfielders capable of scoring goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Lots of overpaid has been's on that list but I'm sure you could make a catch or 2 if you know what you are doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeyAnty Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 I'd take Leon Osman. Not a world beater but will give you 100%. Something we havent had for a long time in a good number of signings 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Anthony Knockaert at Brighton is really impressive, if they don't go up, he should be a priority. We really ought to have signed this guy rather than wasting more on Veretout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 I'd forgotten about Adebayor. I guess the one good thing about this season is we never actually signed him on 100 grand a week. Some decent options there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Carrick would be a good signing for us in the championship, doubt he would come though. I'd like to think Gareth Barry still has a soft spot for us, but it's likely he'd get a better offer in the premiership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 (edited) Have just seen the freebies above and I tell you what, if the takeover doesn't happen I'd take 8/9 of them right now and they would be better than what we have: Boruc Terry, Delaney, Demichelis Carrick, Arteta, Carroll, Osman, Pienaar Would take any of those above and midfield would be sorted for sure. Don't care about age to be honest as getting out of the division at the first attempt has to be the priority.
