thabucks Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Being linked to Glen kamara again from Rangers which would be happy about as he appears to me to be a different mix of player to what we have currently and what is needed. We need someone who will get the best out of Douglas Luiz and McGinn and offer protection to the back line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabucks Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I see Pedro Chirivella is reportedly going Nantes on a free this summer - thought he and Harvey Elliot were the stand out performers against us earlier this season when we played the kids. I wouldn’t have minded him as he has the ability to develop into a top player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was hired as a one of the lads keep the group happy, give them advice, someone easy to talk to, approachable and respected, bollock tickler to get a group of good players to perform how they should in a team that had underperformed for God knows how long That's not enough in the PL... I think he's still good to have around but not as AM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Can see us going back in for Harry Wilson if we stay up. Permanent deal aswell as he has little chance of breaking into Liverpool team and fits the profile we'd be looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He started alright in the prem before fading. I'm also factoring in if we stay up Bournemouth will probably go down in place of us. Trez out and use part of that money to sign him. Gives us a stronger squad at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thabucks Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 If Bournemouth fall and we stay up we should look at Brooks as a possible replacement for Jack. I like Cook also if I’m being greedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would offer £50m for both - take it or leave it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
