Tom13 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 There was also one game when he did a really tight dribble on the edge of the area. Think he turned like 2-3 players inside out, but side footed it just wide. Would have been an unreal goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulMcGrath_5 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Quote Elsewhere, Bertrand Traore is a player attracting interest but a permanent move to Fenerbahce is unlikely. It's undecided at this stage whether Villa will allow Traore to leave on loan or give him the opportunity to impress after an injury-hit season in 2021-22.

HalfTimePost Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Potential for more Traore Sauce. Probably makes sense, he's limited but great to watch, feel like we wouldn't get much return selling him now. Obviously if he has another injury hit season we'll get even less. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope we keep him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhan_Zhuang Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 (edited) If he gets fit he's a quality player, he surely deserves another season! His first season statistics 2020/21 - Premier League - 36 appearances, 7 goals, 6 assists, +6 Big Chances created.

Jareth Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 If fit he might flourish this season, if we're gonna have more possession. Don't mind him staying around TBH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Just 187 minutes last season. Didn’t impress when he got minutes. Really can’t afford to have highlight reel players. It makes no sense to keep loaning players out either in that age bracket. There might be few opportunities to sell him either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But loaning them out allows them to put themselves in the shop window so to speak. Same goes for Sanson who hasn't played much, we'd get more money selling these players after a successful loan spell, rather than them rotting on the bench then trying to sell them.

That only works if they actually have a successful loan spell. If they end up shit at their loan club well..... Not against it the idea, just pointing out its not a no brainer decision.

CVByrne Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 I'd keep him around at Villa and potentially loan him in January if needed. If we are offered £10m+ for him we should consider it but anything below 10m we should keep him here. To date he's a far more proven Premier League player than Bailey is. No player in our squad last season bettered his 13 goal contributions in 20/21 season. He's a talented player and with 5 subs rule he will be useful.
