VillaParkAvenue Posted June 14, 2022 Share Posted June 14, 2022 Reports about Cucurella valued at 50m sound insane. How much would Cash be worth then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much would Cash be worth then? 40m +. given we signed him for 20m and he's proven himself a mid table prem player with potential to improve further. On long term deal and will be playing in world cup in six months. And full backs go for incredible amounts compared to a decade ago where Luke Young for 6m was considered a decent outlay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but Cash is a better player than Cucurella. Granted Cuc plays on the left where there’s less competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attack was only rarely the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulham were actually linked a few weeks back to him! What? Fulham? We should try at least… he’d be immense for us. Might take some convincing but not impossible… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I hadn’t seen the City link. Not surprised though. He’s a great player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like Cash, but Cucurella is better than Cash in a lot of aspects. Faster, stronger, younger, better crossing and technical ability. More versatile. Cooler name. Perhaps only marginally better or equal on a couple things but whatever Cucurella goes for, we'd do well to sell Cash for the same value. You also have to consider oil money tax for that transfer and that it's only speculation currently. It's just silly numbers being flung around until something realistic sticks. Man City have to sign certain players that will suit how they play and slot into that system. I think if City were interested in Cash his value would be £50mil too now. When Athletico were interested I think £30mil tops. People were saying to bite their hands off for £20mil 5 months ago and that he wasn't a Gerrard player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not going to give you much going forward, but Adams + Kamara would seriously lock things down. If you're up, you can catch him playing some primo CONCACAF murderball right now.

Perfect signing for Newcastle’s new manager Gareth Southgate. Howe takes over for England and the clueless Southgate provides the ultimate management appointment for the sports washing campaign. What’s not to like there? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBlack Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 11 hours ago, VillaParkAvenue said: If the world cup had been anywhere else but in Qatar, it would take place right now. True, but given its happening in Nov/December instead, the season has been brought forward by a week, and extended by a week, and will see additional mid week games. Given that is the case, continuing with more games than we might have got in a world Cup seems a bit stupid. Particularly given that we're coming off the back of 2 busier and longer seasons than normal due to covid. It was definitely crazy. In any case, hopefully we see some more movement on our transfer business before our pre season tour in a few weeks time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoMkali Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I'd like Conor Gallagher if we lose Luiz so that it really gives us a midfield that we can look forward to for years. Also offers more goal scoring punch then our other non ramsey midfielders and puts a shift in defensively. Not a very good long passer though. I saw him rumoured by a journo on twitter with 100k followers but he wasn't part of any major news organisation so I imagine that's rather suspect.

PieFacE Posted June 15, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted June 15, 2022 What happened to that lad who was amazing at the Euros? Damsgaard? Was tipped to sign for loads of clubs. Surprised he's not playing in England tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
