ThunderPower_14 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I'd absolutely take him. We need a set piece taker and I think he starts for us as a midfielder regardless. Imagine Jack and Buendia running at players who are scared to foul them because JWP is the one who'll take the free kick. But, he'd take more than we're paying for Buendia. This would be a massive statement of intent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That implies the journo is just making up a number transfer rumours. From what I know, Doyle does not. He has done a few in depth interview pieces: Smith, Konsa and Luiz . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Consider the length of time Buendia has been pursued, you can bet if we're in for JWP there has been a lot of work put into it behind the scenes for some time. Lange hates leaks. I don't see this as so random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't say Villa want to sign JWP. It says "it's understood" Villa want to sign midfielders and JWP would be good option. I don't think we're after any JWP type midfielders. This is lazy crap and everyone is falling for it besides the fact JWP leaving makes no sense and would be terrible value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QldVilla Posted June 6, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 6, 2021 I’m a fan of the player and would love to see him at the club. He certainly can play in that double pivot role, but personally believe we need someone a bit more physical and can play that break up role in front of the back 4. What would he cost though? In his prime as a player and Southampton aren’t progressing, he may just be tempted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thejoker Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Unless there is a release clause in his contract then I can’t see this one happening. Signed a new 5 year deal last year, would cost £50m I think. Can’t see it happening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont_do_it_doug. Posted June 6, 2021 Author Share Posted June 6, 2021 Looking at his twitter timeline Paul Doyle is clearly Midlands based, often conducts exclusive interviews with Villa players, and never talks about transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May-Z Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I imagine a journo has jumped on Jack's quote about Villa having no free kick takers and just plucked a specialist to link us to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMitch Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I'm a huge JWP fan but I just don't see this happening... Will cost us even more than Buendia and he just signed a new 5 year contract last season. He's their Grealish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
