A 4 minute cameo in a exhibition game without a lot of the big names and with no domestic players called up. Still counts but I imagine there are probably 30 or so attackers ahead of him for Brazil when they pick a serious squad 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not saying either are pl quality, just that on evidence, Davis is the more complete player. See that’s where I’m the complete opposite way around on this. Amazing how opinions can differ so much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bet Davis is not in England’s top 30 just to compare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair on Keinan he is yet to start a game for us in Premier League this season. He may or may not have improved as a player. He's cameos suggest that he has Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is easily 10-15 (probably close to 20 if there is no U-23 games at the same time) attackers who need to be missing before he gets picked for a competitive game. And even then there are likely as many players around him in quality who could get picked instead of him. Obviously I'd be delighted if he came back from injury and played at a level where he was continuously picked for Brazil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderball Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I’m looking forward to seeing Wes up front with Samatta next season in the Championship, they will score a shed load of goals. Also looking forward to a midfield of McGinn, Luiz, AEG and Benrahma behind them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashingqwerty Posted May 25, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted May 25, 2020 Not a hope in hell of getting benrahma if we are relegated, especially given brentford are in the playoffs and might be taking our place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashingqwerty Posted May 25, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted May 25, 2020 What would be his motivation? Swap a champ team on the rise for a pl team in decline? I'd also wager, if we got a bid accepted there would be 5 or 6 pl teams in for him too, so why would he choose a sideways step to us over a move to the pl? The only way he comes here is if we stay up, and even then, at what hed costs, theres better value to be found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way he comes here is if we stay up, and even then, at what hed costs, theres better value to be found. If we are in the same division, then it's clear he would choose us. You cant compare Brentford with Villa even if we were relegated. Unless they were in a division higher than us, otherwise if that was his only choices then he would pick the Villa. It's like chalk and cheese in differences between clubs. There maybe other clubs in for him but they'll be at our level. The big clubs wont be touching him, he's not that level so if we stay in the PL it will just be a choice. If we are relegated then that obviously changes the stakes out of our favour but again it will depend who spends the money on him. I think we'll only be back for him if we sell Jack unfortunately.

VillaChris Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Joe Lolley would be much more likely I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we go back into the Championship and start spending 20 million pound on players like Benrahma, which is likely the fee Brentford will be looking for, then we can safely say the club has not learnt from any of its previous mistakes. If we stay up I would hope we go for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KentVillan Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 A bit of chatter on Twitter about Aguero's knee injury being another Ben Mee special?

PieFacE Posted June 27, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted June 27, 2020 I know some will say "players get better when they're not playing". but I genuinely think we've looked a much better team with him playing. He worked channels far more than our strikers which opened up more space. Think he's a better player than many on here give him credit for. But I've always held that opinion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
