Liverpool are strange, they do score a lot of headed goals, but they do it without a traditional number nine for the most part - the likes of Diego Jota and Andy Robertson are heading those goals in - I think it probably says a lot about the quality and the volume of balls they put into the box. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they do.....be interesting to see what happens on Monday. I think Sadio Mane contributed, quite a few too...but now gone. but all the top teams in the Premier League, feature near the top, of this personally constructed Headers league table....with a few exceptions like Everton and Burnley, who feature strongly, Burnley of course who are now out of the league. my point is....when you look back, to the No9'S we have had, I think we are missing out on a valuable contribution source. Most of the struggling and relegated teams are featured near the bottom, as a contrast of the point...bearing in mind my study was over 2019/20....2020/2021....2021/2022 & 2022/23 seasons to date. Its just my opinion....but I think its significant....and I would like to see us sign a player to help us with this. i think we will get one, and a winger to feed one.

And the movement is exceptional. I remember Owen scoring a very good header against us for Newcastle - all about movement, timing and as you mentioned the quality of the ball. We (Cash especially) try and assault the fullbacks with rubbish crossing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to see another defensive full back coming in, but I don't think it will be this window, unless the current ones can stop the crosses.

villa4europe Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 Never saw enough of him to know if his form fell off a cliff or if he was never that good in the first place But he'd be 3rd or 4th choice for us, he's not very good Surprised atletico want him but then with his physicality and shithousery he probably fits there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaz90 Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Whether you choose to believe this account or not (I do), I thought we might be after Gakpo under Emery. Didn't think we had any chance of signing Fernandez though, especially considering he only moved to Benfica six months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 According to some Spanish site I’ve never heard of, Aston Villa have opened talks with Villarreal over a deal for Netherlands winger Arnaut Danjuma. Link Según la información que manejamos en TodoFichajes el Aston Villa ha retomado las negociaciones con el Villarreal para intentar cerrar la incorporación de Arnaut Danjuma. A su llegada a Birmingham Unai Emery pidió la llegada de un nuevo delantero y su antiguo subordinado es una de sus opciones favoritas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
