He must genuinely be one of the longest serving members of the squad now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully none of our last few buys end up being busts, struggled to get rid of Kalinic (and Beye etc all of MONs lot) on £40k a week, be a damn sight harder getting rid of players on 80-160k 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisene getting game time in the friendly today, having just signed a pro contract. Think might be more likely to loan him and bring in a more senior left back for cheap who's happy to sit on bench, or even extend Young for another season. No one is replacing Digne as first choice for a while yet. Edited February 5, 2022 by tomsky_11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post VillaParkAvenue Posted February 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 6, 2022 On 04/02/2022 at 15:07, Delphinho123 said: I don't think many on here would be complaining if we sold Cash to Atletico for £40m and then went out and spent that on Lamptey. I would complain, loudly. Cash plays 90 minutes every game and is never injured. Lamptey very rarely plays a whole game due to recurring injuries and has missed big parts of every season so far. Villa would need two Lampteys to replace a workhorse like Cash. Lamptey is obviously a huge talent but seems to lack some football intelligence. After he’s made a sprint up the pitch, gone inside and dribbled past a player, you would want something to come out of it. But quite often he ends up trying to beat one player too many and the attack becomes nothing. Stats are telling: at Chelsea U23 played 29 games with 1 goal, 1 assist. First half season at Brighton 8 games, 0 goals, 1 assist. Last season 11 games, 1 goal 1 assist. This season 15 games, 0 goals 1 assist. Let Spurs spend 40-50 million on him. I agree with the general idea of gradually improving the squad by upgrading players though 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Lamptey and KKH would be a lovely duo to be able to rotate. I love Cash though and think he's ideal to have against the bigger sides where he puts his body on the line and gives it his all. KKH can eventually take the lesser teams where we want more attacking output Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 I’d much rather have Djed Spence instead of Lampety. Though lampety is very good. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 He’s not a Forest player but that Djed Spence looks a decent player/full back. Only 21 as well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alreadyexists Posted February 6, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted February 6, 2022 Just realised that Todd Cantwell is on loan with Bournemouth… how odd. I guess Dean Smith doesn’t rate him at all? Good job we didn’t buy him in the summer then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its close, there's him, El ghazi, mings, mcginn, Davis, Hause and steer from the promotion team, he was a Bruce signing so that's before Hause and Mings Think it'll be Steer or Davis but he's top 5 longest on the books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
messi11 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Most of you wont of heard of this player, but I been scouting deep where no scout dares to go. His name is Djed Spence, Would be a solid addition to the team if we cash in on Cash 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 The summer is when we start buying £60m plus players. Our owners have looked at each other and said 'we're on another level now'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve got to a stage where we probably only need 2, proper top class players in the summer and we’ve got an excellent side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
