Sulberto21 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Good season. Goals goals and goals. Goalscorers are very important. I still think he can improve especially disguising his shooting a bit better (pass instead of shoot) but double figures from substitute winger is a brilliant return.

VillaChris Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Love him taking penalties, ice cool at them and never think he'll miss. Probably a reason I'm inching towards keeping him around for next season as good to have a reliable penalty taker in the squad, just need to get more of them next season.

I've always rated him mate he's always been a really good player.. Only got to see my posts when we was first linked to sign him in this thread He will always keep improving too. he has everything i look for in a player including his personality He's only 26 too, perfect age and can only get better, and he will do. He loves playing for Aston Villa too you can see that and how much it means to him! Edited May 23, 2021 by Villan4Life 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Afro Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 I am pleased for AEG. He is a likeable bloke and has played an important role in our renaissance but I think now is the perfect time to sell him. His value will be fairly high, probably the highest it will ever be and we need better than he can offer. He scored a great penalty today but the rest of his performance was really poor. If we could sell him for a large amount and replace him with a younger player of similar value but greater potential, then we should do it. Otherwise, happy for him to be back up next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meregreen Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Just got back. He scored a penalty, but overall he was pretty ineffective. Chelsea had the measure of him. As a previous poster said, there’s no room for sentiment in football, we could get top dollar for him now. We will need better to continue progressing. Sounds harsh and a little ruthless, but it’s what the top teams do all the time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Whats his goals per minutes? Must be one of the best in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 (edited) He has the priceless ability to put the ball in the net and to take brilliant penalties. But its a bit like the Hourihane conundrum. Does the rest of his game stack up , especially against the better teams. I think we should keep him until such point we have someone who can match the output but offers a little more elsewhere and that is no negativity on what he has achieved this season. Done brilliantly Edited May 23, 2021 by MWARLEY2 Missed a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 What a crazy season. We signed him as a championship team and he's just scored double figures in the prem. And people want to sell him? I don't want to be that club that just throws players away in the relentless demand for better. It's the same with people who want Traore replaced. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAZZAM Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Gives me a good chuckle people saying to get rid while he's just had his best season. Like why? And who are these imaginary clubs you think have the money to buy him? World football is broke wake up. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pez1974 Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Not in the final Dutch squad for the Euros. Shame for him. Neither is Steven Bergwijn. Looking at comments on Twitter (which is the only source of facts I have), it seems that a lot of neutral supporters think that El Ghazi is the more unlucky of the two not the get selected. Given Spuds paid what, nearly £30m for Bergwijn, I think we did quite well. The Arse paid £72m for Pepe, from the same club, and they both got 10 goals this season. Madness.

Similar amount of game time too, although AEGs figures are heavily helped by penalties. Either way, still says he's worth at least 20m..and probably even more. Not sure I'd sell though, don't know if the demamd is there for him at that valuation. Maybe only inside the PL. I think he's worth keeping and saving us the head ache of buying two wingers that will not be a gamble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
