Lol you brought up Tammy’s assist total to begin with Ok ignoring that **** up on your part, where’s your 10 goals a season quote come from? Championship stats aren’t comparable with premier league stats, but imaginary ones are? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we need to be careful what we wish for here. Yes Tammy is a fine Championship striker, but i'm not too sure about him at a Premier League level.

No, I'm not 100% convinced about him at Premier League level either but to say a 22 year old English striker who has scored 60 goals in 130 career games is worth no more than 10 million in today's market is utterly ridiculous.

DakotaVilla Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I’d definitely pay 25m for a 10/15 goal striker. Assuming others chip in it pretty much guarantees you staying up. Lets not get ahead of ourselves. Every other team in the Prem will be seeing us as near certainties to go down. Especially on the basis that at the moment we would barely even be able to field a competitive XI. Getting Tammy, Mings, Hause and Ghazi confirmed in the next two weeks would be melt down territory. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mottaloo Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I like TA and if he does return then i hope he hits the ground running. My only concern is remembering the chances he missed last season and wondering if he'd get as many chances in the top flight ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeyAnty Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I've reservations about Abraham in the Premiership as well. He did fall away towards the end of the Championship season and was anonymous most of the time in the playoff's (i give him the shoulder injury for that) but you cant deny he didn't score allot of goals. I've just dont understand why Chelsea would let him go for 25mill. That is nothing for a young English Striker who fills up your teams quota in Europe. I think they might have came to the same conclusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt we will be able to compete with them at this stage. Give it a year or two though. He didn't want to go there last year. I'm also not sure they would want him now, given they consider they are the next Manchester City. If we match any other bid, then Tammy will come home to us.

villalad21 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Yeah of course, whenever a person has a difference of opinion to the mold he has to be a troll. So unless you agree with the majority you have to be a troll. Nice logic. I don't rate Abraham as highly as some on here, that doesn't make me a troll.

And that’s fine for that to be a concern. It’s not a guarantee he’d be a consistent goal scorer in this league. But that wasn’t what you were saying. You were basically saying “10 goals a season for £20m? No thanks.” That’s the market now. Lacazette was around £50m and he scored 13 goals (ok he may play wide, and gets a few assists, but the point stands). Or how about Lukaku, scoring 12 goals? Mitrovic is being talked about in a £30m deal - 11 goals. The likelihood of us buying a striker for £10m and him to bag 15+ goals is not that high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post HeyAnty Posted June 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2019 Acura Sports News @AcuraSportsNews 16m16 minutes ago More #AVFC are going to try and tempt James Milner back to Villa Park after he has just won the Champions League, it is believed that Villa are set to offer him £85,000 a week to come back to the Midalnds. Milner prefers Liverpool stay but is open to a move to Villa Park. #LFC Please let it be so, one player who i would want who is over 30. He could go on for another 3-4 years at top level. 4 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Ings has just moved to Southampton permanently for £20m+, 7 Premier League goals last season, the market is so much different to when we were last here, we will need to spend big on somebody! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villalad21 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Milner is the wrong type of signing. We should sign players that will stay here long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREAT_BEARD_OF_ZEUS Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Don't get me wrong, I think he tailed off towards the end of the season (not sure how much the injury at Bolton had to do with that) and I would want us to sign another quality striker to really compete with Tammy and push him, but he's still only very young and the amount of improvement yet to come is easily worth £25m. Look at the players from our squad this season who are in that same age bracket: Tammy 21 Axel 21 Andre Green 20 Keinan Davis 21 Matija Šarkić 21 Apart from Axel he's streets ahead! And you'd still say that the others have the potential to become good, valuable players in the long run. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
