cyrusr Posted June 6, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 6, 2019 Papers suggesting Chelski willing to sell Tomori for £10-12million... looks like the rags though quoting this. Looked good for Derby and wouldn't mind this at all. If he is mates with Tammy could be a good double swoop... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see them letting players like him leave without being aloud to bring players in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC new rules have banned them from having so many out on loan. As such they are going to have to either ship them or use them and they are likely to sell those that they can get a decent price for.

He's got all the right attributes to be a top defender, he just needs experience and lots and lots of tactical coaching. Repetition will be the byword for him. Oh, and not playing next to that donkey Keogh will help. I'd definitely take him at £12m Well he got our player of the season and we don’t give it out lightly and yes you can forget wilson and his 18 goals or Mount - Keogh was 2nd - Tomori isn’t great at corners but he is the fastest defender I have seen in a very long time and he plays football - we have our own intentions to get him back if we can - just a word on Keogh, we have had him 8 years and he plays every game because he has been excellent 2 hours ago, VillaCas said: Tomori is not really a CB and not PL quality there but would be worth signing as a DCM where he could be outstanding (plus give defensive cover) Nonsense - he is PL quality and he is a CB and you are going to need very quick ones - in the premiership £12 million is cheap 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacketspuds Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I'm leaning more towards a Mings / Cahill CB partnership. As well as Jota and Hause, I would love us to sign Cahill, Mings, Aribo, Abraham, Maupay plus a LB and a winger. Oh, and Butland if we're going to lose Kalinic. Pure greed.

Be interesting If this was the case , possible they may let them leave on cheaper price with options to buy back at a similar price , pretty much like Barca had in adama traore's contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure we would stand for that though given Purslow's comments on loans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazrim Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Tomori mostly kept Tammy quiet at Wembley. Looked really good. Didn't see much of him otherwise but if he got Player of the Season in a good Derby side, thats impressive. Chester won't play again much if at all I hear. We have one centre half who will most likely be cover (Hause). We need 3 more. Tomori, Mings and Cahill for me. And Cahill mostly as he's free. Tomori and Mings could cost 25m.

abdulaziz1 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 I’m looking at Wolves fans and their comments in our business so far, they’re thinking we’re still the old Villa and signing players which will take us down. Although it seem they know our first team (maybe much better than some of us know lol), but they still (as many other fans) don’t understand the big work we need to do in terms of building our whole squad. I’ve been asked also in an Arabic PL whatsapp group (where I’m the only Villa fan at) about our activity and the weak links, told them we need a huge rebuild and you can’t think we’ll just pay 100m in 3-4 players. We’re not as established as Wolves or even Norwich and Sheffield. Most our key players were on loan actually. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smartin Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Tomori would be a very good signing IMO. Admittedly I can't say i've seen massive amounts of him but from what ive heard on podcasts and read, he completely fits the mould of what we are trying to build. If he is good mates with Tammy, that could also work in our favour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has got some development to go yet but he is not commanding enough in the air for that position. This is one of the reasons that Derby conceded so many goals from corners and set pieces. I would love for us to sign him but as 1) DCM (where eventually he could be outstanding) 2) LB and 3) back four cover For me the comparison with Axel is slightly lazy. Axel is a true CB, stronger and better in the air, Tomori is quicker and a better ball player. I’d love us to sign them both 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomori seem an interesting link which I would really like us to take. Hope John Terry influences Tomori and even Cahill. That would build us potentially a great defensive unit. When you think we could add the quality of, Cahill, Mings, Tomori and Hause with less than 30m? 4 CB’s and a cover for LB. All defence areas are sorted. A good DM and we’ll hopefully have one of the best units which we had for a while. Ofcourse nothing would suggest we could do all of these. But we can only hope.

Tuanzebe was great for us but he is really really poor in the air, if he improves that aspect of his game he would be amazing but it's a serious weakness currently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 As well as Bahoken from SCO Angers being linked yesterday, I imagine we may also see links to their defensive midfielder Baptiste Santamaria too soon. Ranked 19th for Tackles per Game in the Top 5 Leagues this past year. Think I recall a tweet from a few months ago saying we may have been scouting him.

Probably of little relevance but from an Angers forum tweet this morning. (Translated from French so not perfect English.) Baptiste Santamaria has serious touches on the side of Fiorentina, Aston Villa and West Ham. If a sale was made, it could oscillate between 6 and 8M €. Still the cases Jeff, already seriously solicited, and Tait who pleases in Lyon and Bordeaux. (The team) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
