Laughable Chimp Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 I just don't think we need him. We already have Sanson, Luiz, Kamara, Mcginn, Ramsey and Nakamba hell include Iroegbunam into the mix too. Ok not all of them are playing as well or as good as we'd like but can anyone honestly tell me Dendoncker is a sure fire improvement? He's not is he? He's just another body that most likely will just end being a marginal improvement over what we already have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only a good signing if we properly use and start him otherwise we're just replacing Luiz who has been regular starter over last three years with someone to just warm the bench or play the odd game at CB.

QldVilla Posted September 1, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted September 1, 2022 This is what you get when you can only win 1 in 5 for the start of the season. 5th, 6th choice on the list?? Disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlikely, but we could lose Luiz, Nakamba and Sanson today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep in the Luiz thread people are saying it’s good business selling him so we get a fee, but if we have to spunk £12m on this guy we are just downgrading our team for £8m.

BG_Villa_Fan Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 A truly dreadful signing who's destined to be on the next bomb squad with loans to Turkey until his contract is up. Then we wonder why we never make profit on signings. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjaacckk91 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Don't think he's a bad player, but can't help but think we have enough bodies in there, with youth that could do a job if called on in emergencies. A proper coach/manager would improve our midfield much more... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVByrne Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Good addition, gives cover for CB and is a bit of strength and physicality in midfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Risso Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Good news. Ornstein is generally as reliable as Percy so unless we pull out again, that's one in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadlyDirk Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Not a bad signing, reeks of panic but when you look at it objectively, he ticks a lot of boxes. Our midfield seems to be too lighweight (physically, we don't need to talk about the ridiculous shape and tactics), so an experienced Belgian international who's a bit of a unit, quite tall, will see us go in the right direction to beef it up. Is he coming in as the 4th centre back? I don't know, but seems a relatively functional and somewhat inexpensive (in footballing terms anyway) signing.

Adds what we've been missing in midfield too. Bit of physicality. Is also a very experienced Premier League player and it's a good price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's clear he fills a gap we have. We need some size and we needed experience. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
