Indigo Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Looking at the squads of the top clubs, there isn't that much in the way of viable loans for the most part, and in some cases like Chelsea players we'd be reliant on them bringing in players first if we were to have any remote hope of a Batshuayi. Would anyone take Lallana? Demarai Gray maybe? He's only had something like one start this season. Probably redundant anyway, I'd expect we'd continue to do business from outside of the Premier League just going off what most are saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goals will keep up though!! said in another thread, I'd try for Nemanja Matic, he would hold our midfield together which we aren't going atm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a chance at promotion with Fulham & if they don't make it he gets to pick & choose. Apparently he loves living in West London ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another one of those "shit players" we let go of, as they didn't look the finished article early... We got good money for a player we wouldn't have been able to use properly for a year or two. Cock-up we made was not buying the right players who could help us there and then. Other error we made with him was not playing him up front 90 mins every game in the year we went down so fans could have some fun watching.

useless Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 With Adama it's probably also worth noting that last season at Wolves he wasn't really very good for them and most of their fans had written him off as a flop. Goes to show you need to be patient sometimes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goes to show you need to be patient sometimes. We are villa fans, we don't do patience, if a player isn't instantly da bestz, they are a turd.......... We could probably make a good mid table side with the players we have discarded as "not good enough for villa" or "not premiership quality". I'm sure other fans do it, but we have a masters degree in it. ie: Gollini, Lowton, Cahill, Clark, Gueye, Makoun, Traore, Gil, Veretout, Albrighton, Ayew..............

Joking aside on my last post, this also drives me crazy - and yet we say “the club lets these players go too early” but half the time it is the fans on their back that is surely part of it. It’s hard to see how it changes and I suppose every club has the players it let go and the players it kept giving a chance to, but agreed entirely with your point - too many players have left here as flops but achieved elsewhere, and patience would probably serve all involved better sometimes.

useless Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 I am patient with Wesley I think he will be one of Europe's hottest properties in the coming seasons. Still think we need another striker though whilst he settles in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Gollini case bringing in an inexperienced player especially in the gk position was not a great move to start with , then we changed manager's quickly and was downhill from there with him. At Atlanta he went there as the understudy and over time made himself number 1.For a keeper of that age Atalanta correctly handled him and have reaped the benefits.

I'm sure Man U would happily chip in to have him off the books and he is hardly playing so depends on his character as to whether he would come to us to get a kick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
