HKP90 Posted January 8, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 8, 2023 20 hours ago, I Make Pies said: What I said may very well be porkies as I don't speak a word of Spanish! (I used google translate) No idea if he is better but it seems he is more like a little Spanish winger with pace and dribbling skills who plays left back rather than someone who likes to whip crosses in like Digne.

MaVilla Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 54 minutes ago, gwi1890 said: The part showing how different Villarreal played in Europe under Emery is interesting, people perceive him to be a negative manager but he’s anything but that as we’ve seen with exciting positive football so far in to his villa career, it was a matter of must in the europa league and champions league because on paper his side had no business challenging for trophies let alone winning them. yeah he does seem to have two core tactics, one versus similar/lower teams, and one versus better teams. Looking at how we have done, it seems we are currently more comfortable with the more defensive tactic, but not quite so comfortable with the higher line/more progressive one, but thats prob due to the fact that we need more technical/intelligent players to play the higher line. Seems to me that this window Emery is looking for the players to suit the more progressive style (progressive left back/left midfielder, winger, maybe striker etc). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 TBF didn't Target start the cup tie at Man. United and then he left a few days later for Newcastle so it's feasible we could sign him in next few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

messi11 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Welcome to the club Looks like Lyric was right yet again. Ludwig Augustinsson gets injured and we're straight there to get the replacement in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I wonder, could we have a repeate of last season, Digne going on loan, I don't think either Digne or Moreno will want to back up at their age so likely Digne will leave either this window or summer, might better to let him go on loan do well and get some money for him. I'd still let Ludwig go as well, Ashley Young can be back up left-back for the rest of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Young can be back-up to both right and left back, if both fullbacks are injured at the same time then that's bad luck, if that happens then someone like Konsa can play right-back, or Chambers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I think after yesterday this transfer will develop very quickly this week. Wouldn't shock me if he starts v Leeds if we can get the clearance through in time although Southampton away probably is more likely. Not travelling to Saudi Arabia suggests this will be completed very soon anyway rather than towards end of the month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. I don't think we can afford to have a player on 160k a week sat on our bench. If a suitable offer comes in for Ings, Digne or Coutinho, we should be seriously looking at it.

You know full well that everything you just said is just complete nonsense. I admire your persistence though. You will NOT have a bad word said about your alterego Lyric. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
