tomav84 Posted September 9, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 9, 2020 seems like things are happening with watkins, martinez, and king. we sign those 3 it's turning into a very decent window (i know the latter has divided the crowd) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bose Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Things are starting to heat up. Love it. I'm most excited about who we will sign in central midfield. Hardly seen any links there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's highly unlikely too but Leeds are showing they mean business. And it's not like we haven't wasted time ourselves - over Watkins, over Wilson, possibly several others if rumours are true.

He could probably do a job in front 3 outside Watkins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no Spurs interest until Football London (a laughable football opinion piece rumour site) did article saying Watkins would be perfect backup to Kane then other sites did according to Football London Spurs are interested in Watkins. Absolute nonsense from the get go. Levy would never pay that 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, don’t think it’ll happen. Our squad is too big, wave budget would balloon and teams are playing hardball in this unprecedented market.

That's a word salad of a response but moving on. Mate I ignore the majority of drongo Villa fans on FB and Twitter when it comes to what's best for Villa let alone random internet fans from all over the would voting on BBC site.

Does that mean its true Loads of people rate Grealish. There's a few that think he's overrated, but even those people caveat it by saying they'd still want him in their team and he's got lots of talent. Most Man U fans want to sign the guy (and they're one of the most critical fanbases in the world), just not for £80m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
