Like Berbatov but without the added magical flair. Maybe I’ve only seen him on off days, but if he is a lazy player, that’s the last thing you want in a team fighting relegation. I'm a Napoli supporter as well, and while I can't speak to his effort at PSG, he never struck me as lazy in Naples. Now, he's not always the most interested defender, and he'll pick and choose his spots, but lazy isn't the right word. But, at 33, things might be different now.

It would be very Villa to sign a player we were linked with ten years to late, Joe cole, ginola, grant holt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Don't think we were ever linked to Cavani, that was Falcao, was probably just a made up rumour at the time but now it's been turned into a big 'what could have been' scenario that people like to bring up every so often. We've actually been linked to a few players over the years before they became big superstars, Aubameyang and Özil being a couple of others I can think of.

It will be a interesting transfer window for sure, as we don’t need the squad overhaul we required last summer. 4-5 quality additions. The intentions will be laid out. This was always the plan. This team is gelling now too, three decent forwards and we improve greatly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Enda Posted July 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2020 Mings, Hause, and Engels are all howler-prone and Konsa is hardly the finished article. We have the second worst defensive record in the league. Reina is not our player. We all agree we need wingers but let’s not pretend the spine of the team couldn’t do with some surgery. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn’t surprise me if we went back for Tuenzebe. I think we are much more solid. Transformed. I think confidence will follow and that will improve us too.

AvfcRigo82 Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 RB Leipzig looking to offload attacking midfielder Ademola Lookman. Another club I would be on the phone to the minute we ensure survival. He won't cost anywhere near the £22m they paid Everton for him. There's a good player in there awaiting to be given a platform to do it on. Him and Delufeou at Watford would be two great signings in my opinion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good shouts, but Tom Heaton would like a word. Eze, Billing, and Buendia are three who will be looking for a Premier League club. At least one of Mitrovic or Benrahma the same. I think there’s consensus that these sorts of players in the £25m range are who we should be looking at. (Apart from the FM nutters. They’re a whole other story.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with all of this, but... I don’t think we need a complete overhaul. I was impressed with Engels for the first quarter of the season. Konsa looks like he could turn into a 1st rate defender. Hause I’ve got nothing for ya. Got no clue what anyone sees in him to be honest. Another season under their belts with a legitimate attack could easily be top half.

I would buy John Stones to partner Mings, he should be going quite cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
