PussEKatt Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Loaded up FM 2016 last night because I want to take Villa up to the PL. I bought Sam Johnstone ( GK ) for 4.5 million.Now Spurs want 160M for Kane.At this rate there will only be 2 divisions in English football by 2030 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) Varane to Manure a done deal. They are certainly going for it. And Donyell Malen has completed his move from PSV to Borussia Dortmund, Edited July 27, 2021 by sne 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted July 27, 2021 Author Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) Oles got nowhere to hide Midfield isn't good enough imo but thats got to be a title challenging squad, actually challenging not just finishing 2nd, and deep in to the cups No doubt when they finish 3rd it'll be the glaziers fault Edited July 27, 2021 by villa4europe 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could argue that he has been firefighting for a year or two, but he has had time and backing now, this season will show if he’s got the minerals for it. Ridiculous to give him a new contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Think United still need a striker, cant rely on Fernandes penalties all season and Cavani wont be able to play every week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted July 27, 2021 Author Share Posted July 27, 2021 With Sancho on the right it might mean that they finally push Greenwood further up They'd have martial too even though I don't really rate him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

United standards. I agree on midfield. Looks like Pogba wants out now so someone like him downing tools won't be doing anything next season. If Fernandes gets injured for a few months they'll be hardly any creativity from central areas as things stand. Sancho is more of the same, excellent for them in counter attacking games but not sure he'll be any better at breaking down mass defences. Still think Chelsea will finish above them as they can win games in different ways as they showed under Tuchel last 4 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted July 28, 2021 Author Share Posted July 28, 2021 Surprised by it too, was linked with a load of European clubs Atlanta have a history of getting some decent Argentinians though but what they don't have is a track record of prepping them for Europe, barco starting his 3rd year there, I think only almiron has made that SA MLS Europe journey via Atlanta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Atlanta are also a team in serious crisis now, if thats his only option then I dont expect him to be wanted by many in Europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Wasn't Bettinelli highly rated a few years back? Pretty sure he was in goal when Fulham beat us in 2018 and was getting England call ups. Then they signed those two awful Spanish keepers which summed up their transfer strategy and he wasn't seen again. Just looked up he was regular at Boro last season so guess he has young family and fancies a stress free few years back in London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
