MachoFantastico Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Said it before and I'll say it again, the club needs to do everything they can to make him permanent. Can't recall seeing a better player in a Villa shirt ever in my lifetime. My hope is that the club are already hard at work making his move permanent. But I expect there will be loads of interest in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Silvers Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Magician. Buy him and he has 3 years to have the new North stand named after him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I expect there will be loads of interest in him. Unless they want to see if he holds home injury-wise. It would be stupid not to go ahead and trigger the thing. He’s clearly shown enough that he’s worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomav84 Posted March 10, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted March 10, 2022 "transfer not as simple as people think but we do have an option" so guessing that means we have first option but contract still needs to be negotiated i'm confident, i'm sure we'll find a way to get the deal done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was up to him and it was his cash he’d have him in a heartbeat- said he knows how ambitious the owners are and we’ll see. Phil is happy enjoying his football again etc. Basically its going to come down to Phil and whether or not what we pay him will be enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the money will be an issue, he's not just brilliant he's world class. Pay him what he wants, we'll get it back in spades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if we have a decent finish to the season I'm also pretty confident he'll be signing for us on a permanent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think even if was 99% certain he'd stay, we wouldn't want to say that until it was actually confirmed.

Xela Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 His output is excellent. Scored 4 and genuinely could have had double that. I never thought he'd be that good in front of goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
