Farlz Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Don't get it at all. If he plays RW he isn't better than Adomah, if he plays RB/RWB he isn't better than Bree and further blocking his development. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he dives more than Ashley Young. Do we actually lack depth there though We have Hutton Bree and De Laet who play RB Edited July 17, 2017 by AshVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TrentVilla Posted July 17, 2017 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2017 Who plays RW if Adomah is out? Which he is at the start of the season. He is a cheap squad player to cover at least two positions. Not on big money or a long deal and is a known proven player at this level and to the manager. Exciting no, solid yes. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This x1000. That would leave us with Elmo, Bree & RDL coming back from injury. That would be solid. The 1million is worth it alone if it means Bacuna f^(k$ off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Adomah isn't fit , and beyond that there isn't anyone else . I don't think he has been brought to play RB , the fact he can if needed is a bonus. De Laet is coming back from a long term injury , we don't yet know that much about Bree. So extra cover may be required . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost like the best way to be rated by Villa fans is by hardly playing. No wonder everyone loved Gill and Kozak.

One For The Road Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 This is quickly becoming our worst ever transfer window. Considering how much quality is required in order to push for the top 6, we need better far players than this guy. Not impressed one bit and now started to get very worried we won't even make the top half. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StewieGriffin Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Im a bit 'meh' with this - I accept view that he's a solid signing to give depth at RW, but where do Green and Grealish fit in? Surely Green, Grealish and Adomah as wide options is enough given that Kodjia (or even Gabby) can play on the left in an emergency. If he's cover/staring at RB/RWB then we have plenty enough for that - surely players have to be leaving soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacuna can play RW while Adomah is out. Elmohamady is more of a RB or RWB than a RM from what I've seen. He's not better than Hutton or Bacuna as a RB and if Bree isn't better already he could be with some development. We also have De Laet and Chester who can play there. We need players who are better than what we have not worse and there are gaps in the squad elsewhere which need addressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And last summer when we signed a number of talented players. Maybe, just maybe, solid but uninspiring are just what we need to solidify the squad and give chance to bring out the best in other players. Of course, I may be talking complete and utter nonsense, we won't know until the season kicks off. But things, as proven by previous transfer windows, aren't always likely to go to plan or the way you think! Let's give it a chance at least. take Brighton last year, signed Glenn Murray and Steve sidwell as their main 2 signings. Very uninspiring but helped solidify the squad (which was already good) and they went up with ease. Just using this as an example.

Infinte_Pest Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 (edited) Wasn't there a transfer window where we nearly signed Muzzy Izzet , but didn't, ? and then Gregory quit. That was the worst transfer window. Edited July 17, 2017 by Infinte_Pest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
