trillvillan Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Makes you really question him solely off the Dendoncker signing - he's had loads of failed signings, but I genuinely want to know what his strategy/plans are. He's so clueless and scatter brained. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's so clueless and scatter brained. Dendoncker is an international for one of the top countries in world football. Hardly a bad signing, even if he did make a massive mistake today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Lange his record so far is awful. Lots of money wasted for very little product on the pitch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why was he signed in the first place to begin with? We need SO much better and frankly, it goes to show how bad him and Gerrard were together...

villa4europe Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Said in the emery thread, sorry but that team today was more than good enough, the squad is strong on paper, a lot stronger than the teams around us Just horrifically underperformed... Again What he needs to recruit is a team of shrinks, the issues at the club are so deep rooted and have existed before this team, before this squad, it's the same problems that were evident since MON, I don't know how you exorcise it, its not by buying more players they all just sink to the same hole 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made In Aston Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Lange isn't fully to blame, as Purslow let Gerrard take the transfer strategy in a different direction. It is ultimately up to Purslow what the long term strategy should be. Lane's signings have been ok, but they have been too short term focused and driven by the manager at the time. The club should drive the strategy and it isn't happening at the minute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 20 minutes ago, tomav84 said: this guy really has pissed the 2/3rds of grealish money up against the wall hasn't he Dunno. Bailey did well in Bundesliga for a top level team and I was very excited when we got him in. Even this year he's scored 3 prem goals and assisted a couple so not terrible in 15 games but a performance like today can't be defended. Buendia was certainly someone DS wanted regardless of Grealish staying/going. Ings was odd profile for what we were signing between 2019-20 but has looked decent at times this season but as a short term signing it's not going to work and he'll be moved on in the summer. And Grealish off the wage bill gave us flexibility to get in Kamara (our biggest outfield transfer hit in a while) and Diego who'd have been good aswell but bad injury stopped that.

We had same under Gerrard. Won 4 of our first 6 under him with some decent performances and then reverted to type. I really hope the same won't happen this season. There simply isn't enough hunger to seriously go for silverware or european qualification, you need to turn up seriously for more than 5 games a season to achieve either. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
