I can't see that we would let Hause and Davis out without a loan fee and wages in full. Traore we will be paying a hefty chunk of wages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chasetown Villa Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) Well on this final day of the window let’s all acknowledge what an absolute shitshow it has been. Ambitions of Europe is what Purslow will have you believe, yet our business this window has been a shambles (Kamara aside).

Peter Griffin Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Interesting that Sky is saying Arsenal have bid 20m for Doug and haven't followed it up with a refusal or acceptance or even negotiations ongoing. It would be great to be able to find a replacement and cash in rather than losing him for nothing next summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLDVILLAIN Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 The End of last season...If someone asked me what the worst you could imagine happening to villa in the next 4 months would be.... It would be Exactly whats happening now. The players looking like they have never seen each other before (for whatever reason) The recruitment has assploded in on itself. (Either Lange just gave up or NSWE have said no more funds) The Manager tactically turning into a Vegetable. The Club looking like its hurtling towards relegation. Feels like the last 4 yrs have just been a dream 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KMitch Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 1 minute ago, Villatillidie95 said: club did all the right things at the start of the window then eased off the gas big time which was a huge mistake as Hammers, Palace, Southampton, even Everton have made some great signings on the cheap and using frees, have left us way behind. Look at the likes of Fulham and Nottingham Forest mnaking attempts to be competitive aswell....for example if we were going the experienced route why did we not get kouyate in on a free? probably a better player and better value than dendoncker for 13 mil. I just think we had a great opportunity this summer and started very very well but for whatever reason we then came to an abrupt halt. its been so so disappointing to see all the other teams make big statement signings whilst we have languished. i get the feeling this summer will be seen as a bit of a sliding doors moment which we didnt quite make unfortunately the club has regressed massively in such a short space of time Yeah, WTF happened? We went from being extremely prepared and organized when it comes to transfers to all of a sudden scrambling for deadline day cast offs. This isn't how we've operated at all since we returned to the Premier League... Something is going on behind the scenes. Maybe our spending was done and/or Gerrard was told we need to move on players before he could buy more. Now all of a sudden it's a mess on the pitch and we're in 19th, so more funds were released prior to exits and we're scrambling? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villarocker Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Buy Gerson to play centre mid with his mates from the French league, Kamara and Sanson, then go get Sarr to play wide left then play Watkins down the middle with Bailey wide right and we may have a chance.

I know its not his main position, but I'm not sure signing a player as a dual purpose dm/cb back up when it would appear they've had Champions League starts at CB really counts as shoehorning players out of position.
