Delphinho123 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Kondogbia - £15m, alongside Bissouma - £30m would be class as the double pivot. We could play all sorts of formations with those two to choose from. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could play all sorts of formations with those two to choose from. Are we actually after Bissouma given Purslows flippant joke about Bissouma after the Brighton game? Would tend me to believe we aren’t after him after he said that. Edited May 3, 2022 by nick76 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Kondogbia was being bullied by a little guy in the Bilbao midfield on Saturday night Maybe some further research is needed on him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outs : Davis 8 / Guilbert 5 / El Ghazi 5 / Trez 5 / Targett 12 / traore 12 / konsa 20 / Chuk 15 / Luiz 20 102 mill total Strengthen defence midfield and attack . And get £ 23 mill from academy products which is what we are going to need to do alot more of . I do not think we can get better strikers at the moment for where we are in the league than Ings and Watkins. Highly unlikely we will get Phillips as well but worth a go . Attila? I bet his missus calls him Hun! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he stayed we could easily play him and whichever of Kondogbia, Kamara or even Bissouma signed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbcuk Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Don’t get this fascination over kondogbia, he’s ok but we should be looking at better esp with Kamara for free, younger and better imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejs1111 Posted May 3, 2022 Share Posted May 3, 2022 Maybe I'm in the minority... but honestly I hope Villa don't try for Phillips. His injury history is as bad as Grealish. I'd rather see us go after one of the younger DM players that has been bandied about. Where is that Venn Diagram?? It never lies!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philips is class. he was only always injured because of the way Bielsa used to train them to death. He's nearly finished Bamford. Once he starts his less intense training with us and starts lowering his work rate playing laboured slow football, Villa style, he'll be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joking aside, I’m seriously not sure Phillips will remain the same player without Bielsa being his mentor (and slave driver). Another reason to think twice about signing him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
