RicRic Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Could we lure Leroy Sane (Bayern) to villa park you reckon? i would pay 50M If needed these are players that bring us to the next level. Then find a david silva-esque type of cm to fill that mcginn position. Remember teams have midfield players to contribute for goals so its not just there main striker they rely on for 20 goals a season , the main hitman will get 17 goals on avg thats if your top 4 and 13 goals if your outside that top 6. What we cant do is gauge players on world cup performances its very deceiving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s his main downfall. He’s also on 150k a week so I doubt we can buy someone else without selling him. Nobody is picking him up on those wages.

Yeah that was my thought, he just isn't that athletic and it really shows, just my opinion though. I wondered if we should replace him, but as you say, this is his retirement contract, no-one is gonna take that on..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wide attacker Forward Centre back Right back I think I’d prefer some decent LB/LWB comp instead of RB personally. I know many have said CM isn’t a priority but I’d like us to upgrade here if we can, perhaps bin off Sanson for Kessie and McGinn for someone like Kokcu or Musah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burchy Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Joking aside if we were going for young Argentinians I’d look at Almada, Alcaraz, Farias and Velasco first off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just enjoying the tournament and ignoring whether we should or should not be interested in a player because it doesn’t always follow into club football. I get what you mean and it can indeed turn out that way, but some players deliver on both stages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but some fans are judging some of these players based on seeing them for the first in this tournament. Yes, though, some players deliver on both stages but I’ll leave that to Emery and the team and just enjoy the tournament as a stand alone thing and won’t judge players I don’t know generally as potential players for us when they might just be shining in the tournament or vice versa. We agree on your point overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
