Very strange one, as I thought he wanted to leave for first team football? He's basically gone to Wolves to go out on loan again. WTF? Wolves are run by an agent.

Probably not popular, but an experienced Premier League player next to Mings and for Konsa to learn from would be good for everyone I feel next season. Smalling or Vertonghen spring to mind. What about Engels and Hause? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Engels I don’t believe is good enough and think he could be moved on. Hause is the Mings back up. I feel we would benefit greatly from an experienced head next to Mings, with Konsa as back up to any new signing. Just my opinion of course, but we lack an experienced head in defence especially if Reina goes and Heaton isn’t fit to start the new season. A Cahill type if you like.

M_Afro Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 I would love us to sign Sarr from Watford. He is exactly what we need and will only get better. If Watford would sell for £30m I would snap their hands off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was brilliant against us at Villa Park. Went round Targett time and time again. Agreed he looks a good player but is he all that defensively? I actually don’t know so I’m asking!

villa4europe Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Aarons has been linked with bayern Munich for £20m Would have thought the European Big boys would be sniffing around dest at ajax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Just to start an argument - if a £30m bid for Mcginn came in would you take it ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Going rates are incredibly high because of the premier league cash. Decent but not great players like Hojberg are supposedly going for 40 mil. There's no point in selling McGinn for 30-40 mil only to buy a replacement for the same price and start building a team all over again. We're at the stage where we can hopefully build on the base we already have. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early season he looked great - but even before he got injured he was floundering........is his stock now higher than it's ever going to be ???

No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villan4Life Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) Joe Rodon (Swansea) is a Central Defender i hope we look at this transfer window! 22-years old 6 ft 4" in height and potentially he can develop nicely just like Konsa has. Rodon has impressed me every time i have watched him this last few season's. Edited July 27, 2020 by Villan4Life 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The days of selling players who are getting consistent appearances in our starting XI should be over. Especially selling at "market value". If we are to aim higher, selling vital cogs of our starting XI and then having to spend that money to replace them like-for-like is spinning our wheels. That is a losing game. Eventually the turnover catches up with you, and you stop finding gems, and end up with a squad like we had in 2015/2016.
