I'd love to see us have good players who can cover several positions with quality. So we are not left as exposed when we have injuries and suspensions etc. Also give us the opportunity to switch tactics mid game without losing much. Cash up to this season was a good Championship winger and occasional 10/CM. He's had to best season of his career in a bit of an experiment at RB. I'd be much more comfortable paying £25m for Watkins, whose had three/four excellent seasons in a row than £15m for Cash after one. There's a danger Cash wouldn't be much better than Guilbert IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aren’t some of them still on holiday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So circa 2-3 days whilst waiting for the results as oppose to 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once everyone gets back from Holidays and return to training and remaining cup competitions are completed etc. the action will start to develop on all fronts. Could be that Villa will announce several signings at once rather than just one at a time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taken just now from government website Coronavirus (COVID-19): how to self-isolate when you travel to the UK When you arrive in the UK, you will not be allowed to leave the place where you’re staying for the first 14 days you’re in the UK (known as ‘self-isolating’) unless you’re arriving from an exempt country. This is because it can take up to 14 days for coronavirus symptoms to appear. If you’re travelling to the UK for less than 14 days, you will be expected to self-isolate for the length of your stay.

Other than Max Aarons, I’d prefer Jayden Bogle on the right and Rico Henry on the left. That would be our FBs sorted for the next 5 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought we would have a signing by now but a lot of players are still on holiday, so I guess I shouldn't be that surprised. I suspect we'll see things pick up next week.

thabucks Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Anthonee Robinson and Max Aaron’s are reportedly available for a combined £22million... Rashica for around £23mill... Watkins & Benrahma for £40 mill leaving around £15mill for a DM or whatever they feel is required. See this football transfer malarkey is simples ...

So circa 2-3 days whilst waiting for the results as oppose to 2 weeks. I’ve seen you mention this a few times now. Do you have a source for that information? I believe it is false. Data have shown that swabbing and qPCR testing in early stages of infection can return false negative results, even though an individual is in fact SARS-CoV-2 infected. I would surmise that this is because virus is not present (or in very low numbers) at swabbing sites at early stages of infection, so therefore are missed from swabbing. So, I believe there is no exception to 14 day self-isolation. Even if tested or not, as this period is required to see if symptoms manifest. I’d imagine the club will also test on medical and return to prevent outbreak also. However, if you have contrary information please share.

I think Robinson will stay up north, either Sheff Utd or re-sign with Everton tbh. Besides I personally prefer Rico Henry. Really like Aarons but wouldn’t blow £20m on a FB. We’re not at that level yet. Edouard over Watkins for me. Rashica yes, Benrahma (or Beundia) yes though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 (edited) I reckon we’re gonna sign Tammy. He doesn’t seem to be in Lampard’s plans and Chelsea net spend is normally quite low. I reckon a deal between 30-40 million will be agreed. Edited August 14, 2020 by Vive_La_Villa 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
