imavillan Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) New signing for the ladies team Aston Villa Women are thrilled to announce the signing of Jordan Nobbs on a permanent deal, subject to FA approval. The England international joins the club from Arsenal on an 18-month contract, with an option to extend. Nobbs adds serious pedigree to Villa’s ranks having won the Barclays WSL (x3), Vitality Women’s FA Cup (x4) and FA Women’s Continental Tyres League Cup (x5) in her time with the Gunners. The 30-year-old midfielder has almost 70 international caps to her name and will hope to hit the ground running in claret & blue.

ferguson1 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Very good signing indeed. Only just turned 30 as well, so certainly not at the end of her career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Good signing. I noticed Spurs signed Beth England yesterday. She would have been a good signing as well. Nice to see the bigger name players joining teams outside the top 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) Nobbs the needed No.8, good attacking stats, 30 Goals and 21 Assists in 88 WSL appearances.Definitley an higher profile of player we're signing now. Emma Sanders saying we're still hoping to sign Lucy Staniforth and that a winger is also a target. Edited January 6, 2023 by useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 If Staniforth signs then our last four permanent signings will have been three England internationals and a French international. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveryoung Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Why are these players moving from top clubs to come to Villa. Quite the opposite then what happens in the Prem for obvious reasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite the opposite then what happens in the Prem for obvious reasons. I imagine that as we've started to look like a solid midtable side with little to no chance of relegation, we offer a chance for players with international careers that they want to continue but who have found themselves on the bench at a top side to get back into a starting XI every week. I assume we're also paying pretty well too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 At the start of the window it was stated that we wanted a midfielder and a winger/wide forward, we've signed two midifelders, so will be interesting to see if we still go for another forward, or whether we see Nobbs as the player that can add goals, assists, and creativity to the team. Nobbs and Staniforth will also allow us to play Dali futher forward, so that will give us an extra option as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daly and Dali, Nobbs and now Staniforth since the summer, impressive additions to the first team in a short time! A significant improvement, we should be at least mid-table from now on, not in the bottom third anymore.
