And if they have, with any regularity to believe they have some inside track. I don’t believe they were the first with any of Villa’s incomings, or outgoings in that fact. Sky/talkSPORT were the first with Grealish’s story. I have no idea how good they are with other clubs. When it comes to transfers they have a whiff off we just trawl Twitter like everyone else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we 100% on the loans? It's pretty clear that CB is our priority at the moment, so I can't for the life of me see us letting one go, but the rumours persist.

I just find the whole insider stuff the Athletic peddles trite. We are incredibly tightly run and don’t have top tier journalists anymore. I just find it frustrating that every tenuous story link is indulged. It's the Transfer thread for goodness sake! I'm not aware of The Athletic being on the banned source list, so there's no reason for it not to be discussed. Very odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe in this day and age you can't show PL games on a FA cup weekend due to tv rights. I have no idea, it seems a obvious date. Sorry not really on topic. I do think we need a DM either in Jan or the summer. I wouldn't be suprised if Luiz or McGinn are sold in the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 If true, Nathaniel Phillips might be worth a punt? Will push Konsa but not immediately upset the apple cart?

I think he’d be great for us, he won’t be getting in at Liverpool any time soon. Whenever I’ve seen him, he’s impressed me greatly, he’s young, eager, tough and good on the ball. This potential move just makes sense to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
