The last thing I’d call it is interesting! I can’t comment on Otavio because I’ve only seen clips whereas I’ve watched RLC a lot over the years and it’s a big no from me.

That I agree with, his position and role is what we need Just don't think the big step in quality is paired with we won't get value for money with him and Chelsea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
messi11 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) RLC? Big NO from me. I'm not entertained villa. Edited July 1, 2022 by messi11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure they also thought that we were too good for Paul McGrath with his dodgy knees. Injury prone cast-offs from top teams never work out well.

ROTTERDAM1982 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I'd rather have Kamara than Bentacur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHY Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) 55 minutes ago, nick76 said: Yep Even when I watched him for Chelsea I just don’t see enough from him to be a worthwhile investment for us. To be fair the games I watched Bissouma in for Brighton last season he was mainly average but most fans would take him.

IrishVilla10 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 RLC for some reason wouldn’t be an exciting signing but he would definitely walk into our midfield. There’s always the injury doubts and I don’t actually want us to sign him but he’s a massive upgrade on Mcginn. Seeing chambers come in and do so well as a bit of an arsenal reject makes me a bit more lenient towards these players coming from top clubs. Of course for every chambers there’s a Danny drinkwater though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulMcGrath_5 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Quote Aston Villa is in Otávio, from #Porto , to reinforce the squad. Who observes this is #Inter , holder of 2.25% of the transaction value of the midfielder of the Portuguese team by the FIFA Solidarity Mechanism.
