Eastie Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Just now, striker said: Even if Villa aren’t promoted then I still can’t see either Terry, Whelan or Jedinak at the club beyond the summer so maybe the club have taken Tuauzebe on loan with a view to buy at the end of the season? Highly unlikely Jose would sell him from the way he’s spoken about him but another season loan could be viable - I’d expect terry to play another year if we go up as he recently said would relish the chance of going to Chelsea with villa and I think would be good enough for another season . whelan and jedinak I think would be gone . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAlex Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Smart signing, covers centre back so hopefully Jedinak never has to cover there again, and covers DM where Whelan and Jedinak struggle to stay fit. With De Laet going out and him coming in I think we have improved our squad for the rest of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep looking that way although still a decent squad utility option until the summer if injuries hit again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be fantastic if we have managed to get that in but I think he is still highly regarded by Man Utd and don't think they would be keen to sell. It would be a big figure if they did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now to cash in on Elphick & McCormack and ease the FFP further. Which would in turn allow us to spend more in the summer. Or at least not need to save as much.

DCJonah Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Unless he is going in at dm this seems a strange signing. So i guess he must be. Jedinak is decent but if we can improve on him then it should make us even better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree , similar to Kyle walker it’s a deal to get a very good young player games and experience rather than United looking to get rid - it does both clubs a favour . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the Chelsea Arsenal cup game I honestly feel Terry would be ripped to shreds in the Premiership now so I feel Villa will need a more pacy CB to partner Chester. For me Terry would be a great appointment as defensive coach. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastie Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Seems according to United fans he played DM against arsenal and spurs last season and looked the real deal - they rate him very highly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted January 25, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 25, 2018 (edited) Hopefully this will prevent Whelan from playing even more. Where does this leave Thor now though? Edited January 25, 2018 by PieFacE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted January 25, 2018 Visiting Supporter Share Posted January 25, 2018 Where’s Onomah going to play now? Can’t see him getting too many games which won’t leave Spurs too happy. Same with Tish. Think there must be at least two midfielders on their way out on loan or otherwise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Johnstone / Steer Hutton / Taylor Terry / Chester / Samba / Elphick / Tuanzebe Elmo / Hutton / Bree Jedinak / Whelan / Thor / Tuanzebe Hourihane / Lansbury Grealish / Onomah / O'Hare Adomah / Green Snodgrass / .......... Hogan / Davis / RHM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermon Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Initially I said I was underwhelmed about this signing, granted i knew sweet fluck all about him. Having read up on him though I think this is a quality loan signing. Welcome Axel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think tish is out of the picture and onomah down the pecking order now - if we need the cash then the likes of elphick and barney more likely to attract bids - would be surprised if anyone takes McCormack this week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
