DaveAV1 Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 18 hours ago, Zatman said: Playoff final was May 27 and we signed Mings July 7 They are pushing it late, first game in 3 weeeks The world of the transfer window doesn’t always move at the pace we want it to and is rarely simple. Ideally our signings are done before the season starts. But would we walk away from a player that we hope to sign on a long contract because the season has started? The ceremonial slamming shut still has about 6 weeks to wait. Not ideal but the world isn’t perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa89 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Why is he still here? According to the davis thread he's a world beater, should be easy to offload him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Dennis heavily linked to Forest so I think thats Forest off the table for him Did we ask for too much? Some people were expecting 15 million for him a few months back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point we might as well just see out his contract and see if we can get any use out of him, even in Cups etc Any future move he gets might almost be a pay as you play, of pay wahen you're fit or something, or much reduced wages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people were expecting 15 million for him a few months back It's probably similar to this forum. The ones who rate him think he's worth £15m, and Villa might be asking for a fee something like that. Whereas the ones who think he's not very good for the Premier League would virtually give him away for £2-4m and Nottingham Forest probably want to pay something like that. In reality, he might be worth somewhere in the middle, but neither side want to meet at that halfway point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is a 5 million player at most, he is a handful but he offers very little goal threat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just hasn't done enough, even in the Championship when he was really good. Plus, the fact that he's made of glass is something that will put off a lot of clubs. Do I think we'll sell him?

There's no chance the club are looking for that much. If a club offered £3m he'd be gone, he has no function at villa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
