You ARE kidding aren't you ? We can do better than Ollie if we wanted to go big but Tammy is not big and is probably a £15M Premiership player if you think you might get a season out of him. He'll do okay in other leagues but not ours. Decent Championship striker when on form and we are better than that !

I watch a fair bit of Serie A, and he has been good for Roma this season. But he's no better than Watkins IMO, and certainly not worth the amount Roma would now be asking.

It's a reasonable discussion. Who might we have lined up who's tearing it up in world football, and who would come to a Villa side who's not in Europe? I think if he didn't already play for us Ings would be in the mix. I'm struggling to think. I like Antonio but West Ham are doing better than us right now. Toney at Brentford, but everyone seems to have cooled on him at the moment. I suppose Suarez with the SG connection, but I hope to Christ that doesn't come off, as he's the womblest of cocks. I'd probably give Tammy a punt. He did well at Chelsea when he did play, despite being bombed out for seemingly no reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a punt if he was about £15-20m, but Roma are looking upwards of £60m+. Not worth it, as we already have two strikers that would provide a similar output.

sharkyvilla Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 If I was Tammy there would be no way I'm leaving Roma. First choice striker at a top club scoring goals, in a lovely city where it's not freezing cold or pissing down with rain. Footballers don't think like me though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at our xG stats, we have scored 42 goals against an xG of 33. I'd say that means were pretty efficient when we do get a sniff of goal.

He was worth considerably more than £15m when he ended the loan with us, and his 15 in 34 PL appearances the season before last for Chelsea, then smashing it at Roma won't have done the price any favours. Find me a better than 1 in 2 striker in the Championship who's also a proven goalscorer in the PL, still yet to reach his prime going for £15m I can understand thinking he's not a considerable enough upgrade on Ings/Watkins to be worth the money, but 'probably' a £15m player?

I also think that Tammy has scored 26 Premier League Goals in 89 games whilst playing an average of 55 minutes per game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a different timeline, when Chelsea didn't have that embargo and play Tammy because they had little choice, I think we'd have spent a similar amount on Tammy instead of Watkins, and I think we'd be a better team for it. No going back now though, the fee would probably be more than we can justify on another forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I’m pretty sure adding elder players to the squad isn’t signing 35+ year olds it’s more likely to be 25/26/27 year olds hitting their prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young left Milan for Birmingham... and disappointing. Can't help but think he feels the same. Terrible move for all concerned. Abraham would be crazy to leave what he has now for a Crystal Palace, say... Edited April 5, 2022 by AvonVillain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_gary_cahill Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 3 hours ago, HalfTimePost said: We paid £31m for Wesley and Samatta Neither have them have failed at Villa, I liked both of them, I have good memories of both, Samatta’s diving header against Man City in the Carabao Cup final in 2020 and his header against Bournemouth away in the league in the 19/20 season, he showed great bravery in both cases. I also think that Wesley has a lot of potential, he has shown it in short spurts in a Villa shirt, I fondly remember him terrorising Ben Mee and James Tarkowski against Burnley at Turfmoor in 19/20. No striker in world football is going to perform at a 10/10 level every week, it is impossible but it seems that every football fan wants this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
