The only chance would be wide right and he has Trezeguet and Traore already fighting for that position. I'd love us to sign him because he looks a real talent but it just seems highly unlikely now. I agree with this. I would rather we signed either a left back, a centre half or another centre mid (a destroyer). They are all higher priorities in my view.

TheMelvillan Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Really sports journalism has now just become who can make up lies in the most creative ways on the best platform with the hope of getting it right on the odd occasion by pure fluke. No such thing as building up relationships, unearthing sources or investigating the truth. Experience or qualifications or intelligence no longer matter. It's all about the number of clicks they receive at the end of the day. Or to put it more simply, all these sports journalists are a bunch of lying words removeds. In saying that I will continue to read and get excited by all these itk postings so I guess it works 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Silvers Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 2 minutes ago, Delphinho123 said: We need a squad. Trezeguet (effort aside) and El Ghazi are not good enough for this level which leaves Grealish and Traore - the latter being unproven. Rashica, whilst predominantly a LW, can play on the right and also through the middle so he would give us options. We’re also living in a world where our best players could contract a deadly virus at any moment and be out for 2 weeks, potentially missing up to 4 games so we need a bit of depth. Im totally against stockpiling players but you do have to have good players competing to improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarryOnVilla Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Why are these twitter plebs bouncing about on this Rashica nonsense. It goes from Rashica is holding out for Leipzig to he’s agreed terms with Villa, to Bremen is holding up the negotiations, to Rashica is holding up the negotiations, to it being off, to being back on, now back to Rashica holding out for Leipzig It’s Rocket science to work this shit out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Jack able to drop into midfield to cover Ross and SJM, that’s effectively 6 people rotating 5 positions. Doesn’t seem unrealistic to me, given injury, suspensions, loss of form etc. That’s not to say I think it will happen, but I’d add, him waiting for Leipzig as long as he can, does fit with the waiting until now to pay off Jota. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jbvilla909 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 I think we need quality CB cover for Mings and Konsa, LB to give Target some real competition and ST cover for Watkins Unfortunately I think we're done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, Trezeguet isn't exactly much competition if Rashica were to come here. But I do agree that I don't think we're that interested in him anymore. Paying that much money for both Traore and Rashica is a bit odd when you can only really start one of them at one time. Yes depth is good, but Trezeguet is capable as cover and I'd think other positions would be of more importance to focus on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you say boo him so badly does that mean your booing skills aren’t up to the required PL standard and are so weak that they could almost be regarded as a slight cheer? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
