Sounds like we're going to be busy, they also mention a number of the U21s looking for loan clubs. Looks like Ilya Zabarnyi who we've been linked with last few days is going to Bournemouth I lost you at the first three words. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Birmingham Mail "Today’s the day and the countdown is on for Aston Villa to add to their squad ahead of their 18-game run-in as Unai Emery looks to gatecrash those European qualification places.Three positions are the priority today with Marseille midfielder Matteo Guendouzi top of Emery’s wish-list. A winger and a new No.9 are also both desired with Villa having already registered their interest for the likes of Luiz Henrique (Real Betis), Alberto Moleiro (Las Palmas) and Moussa Demeble (Olympique Lyonnais).Villa’s most-pressing need is a central striker to replace Danny Ings who left for West Ham earlier in this window."

LondonLax Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 We’re pretty comfortable mid table. We have a new manager still assessing the squad. We are out of all the cup competitions so only have 18 more matches left in the season. It’s not a surprise that we’ve been conservative in the January window, focusing more on a clear out than ins. We’ve got a great platform for next season now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Vive_La_Villa Posted January 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 31, 2023 If we don’t sign a striker the biggest disappointment for me will not be letting Ings leave. I totally get that. It’s letting Archer go out on loan. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like we did some massive housecleaning and added 2 players - one a first team starter, the other a potential off the bench. I'd say we had a 7/10 window, if we add a striker or guendouzhi we'd take it to 9/10. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not so sure Tbh I'm not that fussed. For the first time in many years I'm fully confident in the manager and board to do the right thing. If the right move is available we will go for it, if not we won't. I'm glad the days of shelling out fortunes on dross is on the decline. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
