Tomaszk Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Big fat bonus of £7m or so if we stay up I imagine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan-scott Posted July 7, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 7, 2019 (edited) Bournemouth probably saying 26.5m and Villa saying 20m. Either way get it done! Edited July 7, 2019 by villan-scott 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted July 7, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 7, 2019 (edited) Glad it's happening. Crazy price though but yay! Edited July 7, 2019 by PieFacE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 20m reasonable, 26m not so much. Do I care? NOPE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 As I thought 20m was the compromise price. Happy he's back. Inspirational in the run in and imo best CB in the air we've had since Laursen. Can improve more aswell. Real test now is who we get to partner him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted July 7, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 7, 2019 If he’s anywhere near as influential for us as he was last season I couldn’t give a **** if it’s £20m or £26m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 28 minutes ago, rodders0223 said: £20m for a "Championship" CB with three years of injury plagued seasons behind him. He isn't worth that as much as I would love to sign him. Rather spend that on him when we know his level reasonably well than a complete unknown (to me at least) in Webster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Regarding the fee, I can't think of a centre half of his standard that has gone for less than £20m recently. We managed to get El Ghazi, Hause and Jota for absolute bargains imo so helps balance it out a bit. Sometimes you have to pay the top end of the price range to get the person you want. I'm just **** happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaVilla Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 1 minute ago, Uncle Albert said: Very true to be fair Mings was unknown to all of us when he signed on loan (pretty much), Deano obviously rated him, same really with Webster i dont know much, but if Deano wants to spend 20m on a player of his choice, i would drive him there myself with the wad of cash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted July 7, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted July 7, 2019 His injury record is the thing that concerns me for the money we're paying. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just **** happy. U.K or signings from abroad? Sheffield United signed Jagielka on a free the other day, old now but been a very good CB for many years now and played for England at a few international tournaments. Newcastle signed Fabian Schar for 3m last summer. Wolves signed Wily Boly for 10m. I'm happy with Mings coming back but believe it or not pretty good CBs exist outside of these shores and they won't all cost 20m. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Sounds to me like Bournemouth wanted 26,5 million and we held hard on 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
