Had we gone down would McGinn or Jack be poor players? Sorry but that is daft logic. 8 Premier League goals is acceptable for a striker on 100k+ a week? I mean If Wesley didn't get injured i have no doubts he would of got at least 10. Trezeguet got 6 goals also . 8 is poor for a striker people want to lead the line for Villa on big wages 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djene from Getafe who's a CB is another I'd look at. yeah as @messi11 said, Leeds were linked with David. Still think he would be a great target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdulaziz1 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 As I’ve mentioned earlier, Benrahma, Eze, Swift. I don’t think they’d cost more than 55m. Add to them a good striker and I think we’re good to go. Could do with one or two clever loans/free too. From the relegated teams, I’d have a look at Deloufou and Doucoure. Possibly Billing and King. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would suit our formation as well. Anyone who watches Bundesliga think he make the grade in prem? Would he be attainable? He's reasonably good, but far from prolific (barring last season). Bit of a Keinan Davis who does occasionally score. Would cost a good chunk too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 1 hour ago, mikeyp102 said: Smith has talked before about how late we did some of our business last year and it didn’t leave time for people to get settled (Luiz). Last year it was inevitable that would happen as we had so many to buy. This time I’d say we are looking at 7 max (and even then some would be for a long term project and not required to be thrown in the see end and play straight away). I’d expect most business to be done within the next 3 weeks. From memory we actually signed most of them in July. Can remember getting Wesley in early June (Jota also came in around then). Luiz problem is the work permit didn't come through until August so he was training and waiting in Brazil. We've had plenty of transfer windows where we've done business much later.

messi11 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 I think Odsonne Edouard has an higher ceiling than any of the strikers and relegated asbeens mentioned on this thread. Period Lets sign Odsonne Edouard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would be good is having a striker who can play as number 9 and also out wide. Samatta was supposed to be that but looks a total lost cause now e.g expecting him to score more thna two goals next season. Would look at Emil Forsberg aswell. Dosen't seem as influential at Leipzig nowadays but been a good player for them in last five years and vast international experience for Sweden. Probably the sort Everton will sign for 50m though.

jim Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 I’d have Welbeck as back up to Wes and a top, top striker. Presuming his injuries are behind him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that that is particularly relevant, he would be a good signing for Villa in my opinion, if you don’t agree that’s fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we can do better than Josh King too. Josh king scored 12 goals last season. He is really the ideal striker for us. He can play out wide or down the middle is fast and is skillful and can create for himself or for others. He would be a brilliant signing in my mind. Wilson on the other hand would not. He got 6 goals and 4 assists this year in 26 appearance but I don't think he was full fit for most of it.

Forsberg was brilliant a few years back. Not quite athletic enough to be a midfielder for Nagelsmann, but still a very good player. Rather than Poulsen, I'd love to sign someone like his ex-teammate Matheus Cunha (also played underage with Douglas Luiz for Brazil). He's a fantastic forward in the making.
