Djemba_Villan Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 SIgning Diangana would be a good move IMO:- Realistic Starting XI:- Watkins Diangana Grealish AEG/Trez/New McGinn Luiz Targett Mings Konsa Cash Romero/Heaton That is a very balanced XI. Luiz Playing Deep Lying Playmaker, McGinn Box-Box, Watkins chasing down everything.

VillanousOne Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 3 minutes ago, Farlz said: Diangana was very good for Albion last season and £12m rising to 18 like they had accepted yesterday is a great deal. I'd still rather try and get Benrahma though Despite the Baggies being an inbred load of garbage, surely the fact he was on loan for a season and knows the players and management would mean he would be more likely to want to go back. Unless we offer to pay him more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farlz Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I can't really see us signing this lad though. I was reading yesterday that he's pretty gutted West Ham are pushing him out as it is. Would he not just prefer to join back with the side he done well with last season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that team without a Rashica would be overun in midfield and struggle against most sides in the PL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we offer to pay him more. I mean I agree but... From a career POV. Baggies are going down the Norwich route of pocketing the PL cash, bombing out and hoping to come up again. They have a £20m budget by all accounts and are chasing Wigan for a CB. Manager already been stropping about it on TV. They are also in our position from last season trying to spend most of their budget to stay still since they relied on loans. Fulham already have a much better squad than west brom and is nearer 'home' in London We would represent a step up, assuming we are building this season and keeping Jack. He's more likely to progress as a player. If I were Villa leadership i'd me marketing the crap out of the fact that Mings, Grealish, Luiz, Wesley all got called up to their (highly ranked) national teams after doing well for us.

ozvillafan Posted September 3, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 3, 2020 Diangana, eh? A clear antithesis to Grealish given the relative sock-height of the 2 players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My West Brom mate mentioned about signing him a few weeks back. I mentioned it on here in another thread about him heading to West Brom. I'l post it if I can find it. He's a good player and rated very highly by Baggies fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Diangana mostly played on the left-wing last season, although being left-footed and the type of player he is I think he'd work well on the right cutting onto his lefty foot. Was one of Albion's standout players whenever I saw them last season, his stats are excellent too, eight goals and seven assists in thirty appearances, wouldn't be against signing him over Benrahama, three years younger.

Delphinho123 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Just now, Tomaszk said: Very likely that sky story is porno brothers trying to hurry West Brom along. He could be great on the right wing for us. Reminds me a lot of Sterling. Judging by the video, his end product might need some work. Not sure about him tbh. Id really like us to play the 3-5-2 formation with Rico Henry on the left and Grealish up there in a free role behind Watkins. But what do I know.

Big teams will walk through that with ease. Not the players but formation I don’t think would work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
