Free isn't exactly a bargain if he's picking up upwards of 10m a year as he looks to be physically declining by the week. You know what. You might be right there. Bang out of form for the best part of 2 months. Not too bad as a super sub tho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david-avfc Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Presumably we’ll pay off a higher chunk of his remaining Barcelona contract to compensate for the lower fee, but nonetheless a great signing and seems like it’s on our terms not the other clubs for a change 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So excited if this goes through as described. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhan_Zhuang Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 This is a big signing for Villa, arguably the most gifted player we've seen for decades. Did anyone see the training ground video of Coutinho and Luiz pinging the ball at each other? Sublime. Again, a good preseason for Villa, Gerrard and Coutinho will all help us improve next season. Statement signing and one other potential transfer targets will notice around the world. Fasten your seatbelts! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buendia alone has better PL stats, one extra goal (3) and three extra assists (6). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe and don’t quote me but I think both individually this season have better stats than Grealish. I’m sure somebody has the stats and Coutinho only got here in January.

If we keep Luiz we almost certainly lose Carney though as he'll want to play an 8 to stay. But keeping Luiz is better than losing both Edited May 9, 2022 by HalfTimePost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Spoony Posted May 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 9, 2022 Would he be open to flying to Barcelona then flying back to Birmingham and stay at the Belfry so we can track him and make this feel like a new signing? 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villarule123 Posted May 9, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted May 9, 2022 A no brainer signing, he's been quiet recently but on the whole he's been in a class of his own since joining. Once we finally get a DM, a few other better players around him who are on the same wavelength, he will be a big, big player for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belfry!?! When there's Julie's basement to stay in. Unless she's yet to release Enda Stephens and Jermaine Defoe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
