Basically last few summers we've mostly done that and it's put us here. More proven players like McCormack, Chester and Elphick I'd much rather have. Would be good to find a gem here n there though, amongst the experience players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's isn't returning to the Premier League, it's burying yourself in the depths of the Championship. I Hope I'm wrong though How are you burying yourselves in the depths of the championship by buying players who have already been promoted from it. That seems to be the exact polar opposite? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) No nonsense central defender with experience of excelling in this division Good signing Edited August 12, 2016 by Xela 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I have to say the height thing on set-pieces makes me a bit comfortable as Elphick, Chester and Amavi in a back 4 is quite small which means we probably have to find a way to include Gestede for set-pieces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PompeyVillan Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 A solid, experienced player with a good attitude and a winning mentality. Expensive, and I have my reservations about spending so much on players that may struggle should we get promoted. But really, that's me still struggling to come to terms with Villa being in this league. And hey, Xia is wealthy right? I keep saying it, but this league isn't the place for us. However, I'm positive Chester will help us build a stronger team and will certainly be first choice next to Elphick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan-scott Posted August 12, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 12, 2016 Welcome! He's a very good, solid signing for me. I'd chuck him straight in tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
