Zatman Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 33 minutes ago, JAMAICAN-VILLAN said: Tammy looks better physically, based on what I saw in the last match, haven't watched him at Roma aside from in that final. What I'm more interested to know though, is what his finishing is like, because as others have noted, he used to miss chances galore for us. It's not a physicality problem we really have with our current strikers IMO ( Then again, somethines we do ), it's more of a finishing problem. An argument could be made that a more physical striker would allow for others to get more goals. However if that's the case, got to say in blaspheme, we already own Keinan Davis! So IMO if it's not a clinical finisher/goalscorer we are getting in, what's the point? Dont look at his XG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_gary_cahill Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 I don’t understand the negativity towards Tammy Abraham on here. He’s been before albeit on loan and was excellent, wherever he’s been, he’s scored goals. Yes, he does miss chances but what striker doesn’t? I would be ecstatic if we signed him, I’ve always rated him, he’s a goalscorer. The news of the link today pleases me, I don’t know why Chelsea got rid of him in the first place. It could be another ‘Martinez’ move by us i.e a top 6 club not wanting one of their players and us signing him and him going on to be excellent for us in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philosopher Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 2 hours ago, lapal_fan said: Tammy is 6ft 3, quicker over 10 yards, has way better technique with the ball at his feet and is useful in defending corners, I'd argue he's got better shooting boots too. I really like Ollie, but I feel Tammy is better overall. Ollie is much better at pressing though, and running into channels, because of his superior athleticism. Tammy is 6'3 but doesn't hold it up as well. Is definitely slower over any distance compared to ollie. Ollie is superior to Tammy in most areas, only anticipation and sniffing out chance is Tammy really better. He has done well in Italy, but he a Ollie are both at a similar level. Serie A is simply a weaker league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks ALOT more skillfull/composed than Ollie, and a better finisher, just going off that video to be fair. However again, as I say, people who know more than me all compare him to Ollie.

Opinions change in life not just football, Grealish is still a fantastic player, the best I’ve seen in a Villa shirt.

DakotaVilla Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 he’s been in the press a number of times this last season for getting hammered, cheating on his mrs and there were loads of red flags going off re how pissed he was celebrating the league win. He clearly has a problem with alcohol and needs to get that resolved if he’s ever going to really reach his potential. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 BBC Gossip column Quote Former Rangers chairman Paul Murray says the club need to sell some of their top players this summer - with Calvin Bassey linked with a £25m move to Aston Villa - to give manager Giovanni van Bronckhorst the funds to rebuild the team to attempt to reclaim the Scottish title.
