The Fun Factory Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) 1 hour ago, Bomvilla7 said: If we do go down, I am dreading to think what shape of a team we will be left with. Assuming Mings, McGinn, Luiz, Grealish (and there may be more with that) all leave then we will be left in some state. Getting relegated this time could be a bigger disaster than before and might have much longer lasting effects. In recent years you don't really get a fire sale if you go down due to the parachute payments. Also to be honest most PL clubs would probably go elsewhere rather than prodding through a dead carcass of a side that has failed in that division. Grealish will go for sure but for everyone also I wouldn't like to say. They may make as much money staying at Villa than in moving. Joe Allen was seen as one of Stoke's 'Star' players in the prem and is still at the club in their second season in the Championship. We could become the Albion yo-yooing between divisions. Well its more interesting than constantly trying to get 10 wins to stay up every year I suppose. Edited June 21, 2020 by The Fun Factory 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 I fear for us next season. Our recruitment team is hopeless and we’ll lose Mings and Grealish. We need to pull a few rabbits out of hats if we’re to come straight back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was amazed Fulham keep Mitrovic but they did and also assumed Butland would leave Stoke the mintue they went down to protect his England squad place so don't see why we couldn't keep Heaton who'd be the best keeper in the championship so that's a decent starting block. I think most bar the obvious ones would stick around as they've shown this year they're not good enough for premier league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Other things We will keep mings because he's only been OK, he's not been £20m+ player Same again mitrovic, good pakyet, value for money? Not a chance, he's not the & 20m+ player Fulham thinks he is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Likely Mings will want to leave to get in the Euro 2021 squad, and despite the criticism he gets on here I can see quite a few of the mid level premier league teams being interested in him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villan_of_oz Posted June 21, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted June 21, 2020 We won't win another game, it's not going to be as bad as 15/16 but it will feel similar by the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerCollins29 Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 We were always gonna lose today. We arent good enough but we will stay up. Not a doubt in my mind. Beat newcastle, palace and everton. Draw with arsenal, wet spam and wolves. Lose to pool, yoonited, 38 points. Scrape survival. Buy everyone. Next year Champions 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 It is also possible 36 points might be enough if everyone else continues to keep losing or drawing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 In the week Brighton are away to Spurs, West Ham are away to Leicester, Bournemouth away to Wolves, and Watford are away to Burnley, so if results go to form. Obviously we're away as well, but if we somehow managed a win, it's not out of the question we'd lift ourselves out of the bottom three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think if we don't beat Newcastle we're done and could well go winless. We've blown the first two games in two difference ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted June 22, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted June 22, 2020 I'm not at all surprised with a point from the first two games back - but this lot are looking like they're already beaten. Relegation will suck, but I do remember most folks being honest last season saying we are far better rebuilding in the prem than staying down another year. This still holds for me, as disappointing as it is. It'll be another rebuild, maybe a couple of years in the championship, but give me NSWE and a ton of real money than what we had with Recon last time we went down. We just need to find someone good to spend it - income from Jack, Mings and McGinn, last seasons's FFP written off due to coronavirus, parachute payments - and some talent remaining which should thrive in the championship - I think we can come back a lot stronger next time around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
