GlobalVillan Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 3 minutes ago, VillanousOne said: You contradict yourself, if we need to sell Ramsey for FFP what would Monchi be doing with the money? It would be going into our profit margin not spent on a 'better replacement'. Sorry I should have been clear. I think we will get a better replacement for less than what we sell for, which will help with FFP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if we don't get Champ's league football it does look like we will have to sell one of our big names, that's if we have any that aren't injured come the end of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mantis Posted April 5 Popular Post Share Posted April 5 I suppose they figure it's safer to take him out of a play now so he can be back fully fit for next season. What a shit season it's been for him though, and because of a stupid **** England U21 tournament. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjw63 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 No chance of selling someone who seems "injury prone" then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Whatever he’s done, he’s absolutely f******. Reminds me of the Grealish saga. Something seriously wrong with his foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt anyone will pay that sort of money now unfortunately, given his injury problems, but he is definitely a player I would be looking to move on. Shame, as there was a brief period last season where he kooked like he could have been a good player for us, but I really think we have moved on in the time he has been out. Anything we get for him will be pure profit too as he is an academy player, and that will not be lost on the board. Yeah, I hate to say this but I’d agree with selling him on. If we get a 50m bid (as Tanswell mentioned on the Athletic PSR pod yesterday), I figure we have to consider it. He’s played little to no role all season — and we’ve had the best season in my lifetime. Pure profit from a PSR point of view as well. obviously I’d hate selling a homegrown player, but it might be the best way of not losing a “first team player” that has been integral to us this season.

WHY Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 A broken metatarsal has basically kept him out for a season. It would appear to me his injury hasn’t been dealt with very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJBOB Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 From what little I've read and what @Deano & Dalian's Umbrella has posted, probably for the best? Seems like the type of injury that was really painful to play through. Even when he went off at Luton, it looked rather innocuous but just the x-ray itself looks painful.

ender4 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 22 minutes ago, gilbertoAVFC said: So he's missed the whole season along with Mings and Buendia. And Kamara missing half of this season and half of next season. Has any other team actually had worse long-term injuries than Villa this season?

AndyM3000 Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 I hate international football it needs binning off. Especially at youth level where they play very poor quality teams anyway, they don't get much out of it. Not a chance I'd sell him personally.

jayEm Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 Doubly frustrating if this forces our hand into selling Luiz as basically our only fit player that could attract the sort of fee we need. Well maybe Ollie as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picicata Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 In fairness, even if he had started to come back this weekend, his match fitness would not have been good enough before the season ended 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustibrooks Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 A broken metatarsal is a shit injury to recover from sometimes. It can easily reoccur in the most random of occurrences as well, when I done mine i didn’t fully recover until 10 months later despite feeling fine to walk without a protective boot a few months after the injury. Hopefully he can bounce back for next season and kick on again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
