I must say japan have my whole respect Amazing how there fans and even players conduct themselves etc you sound extremely busy over there , yeah just look after the villa boys leave out the scousers Didnt realize you were part of hosting and so forth try and enjoy some of the action and atmosphere in the coming weeks if you can maybe one day i get to visit i was looking forward to watching nicolas jackson for senegal as i heard we are linked with him but i think most of it is lazy journalism we seemed to be linked with the whole villareal squad. I went to school with Nicolas Jackson. Probably not the same one, he would be in his late 50s now 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see it happening unless Oblak is sold by Atletico Madrid and they come in for Martinez. No way to anybody called Bono at the club 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says he signed for Newcastle, played ~20 games, then sold for £10m back to Spain. What happened at Newcastle then? Without knowing details that doesn’t sound promising… I think he was homesick. I remember Newcastle fans liking him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s looks quite good under Emery so far? still one of the best carriers, we have on the books.....needs a few tweaks on his game, which I am sure , Unai will do. I see him as a first teamer now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 What sort of midfielder is Merino? I had a quick look at the video before the music gave me ear cancer and he looks like a left footed Donck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't see that one happening either in January. He's a top class 8 who can also play as a DM if needed. Would be a real upgrade on McGinn and scores more than Luiz. I watched La Real regularly two seasons back and he always stood out for them alongside Odegaard, Isak and Oryazabal, also has good physical presence. Very excited if that's the type Emery will be interested in and attracting to us. He's had quite an interesting career aswell, was at Dortmund and Newcastle in early 20s so already had spells abroad but real break out has been moving back to La Liga. Very underrated player. Him and Kamara as the pivot with Luiz and Dendoncker as alternatives is pretty good for emerging top half team, all in 23-27 age range also. If we get the 2-3 big signings right we could have a very exciting squad in six months time. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benitez had him and he was in and out. It's no different to Veretout not looking that amazing for us but going on to have very good career in Italy and France. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Looks like the best bits of Gareth Barry and John McGinn does this Moreno . Dogged and physical but with real passing quality and vision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be better although I'm only going on others about Chukwueze and I'm still thinking Buendia should be in the XI, and Ramsey (as you put) is pushing for a position.
