Whether or not it's Villa related is not known but given it's Air Hamburg who Villa use it would be a coincidence if it isn't. Having said that it certainly doesn't mean there's a player on board. It could have been Villa officials visiting for discussions 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tayls Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) Sounds like it was too much of a stretch. Never mind I’m sure we had back up options for the CM roles. Edited January 16, 2023 by Tayls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Afro Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Villa would never make an offer unless they were certain he would sign. I suspect that the noise is more to do with negotiation tactics. If we agree a fee, he will sign. 100%. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post AP from Marseilles Posted January 16, 2023 Visiting Supporter Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) Thank you all for your multiple replies...so much to read, apologies for not coming back sooner (like Matteo, I'm polite). Among the reasons why he could come to Villa, I'm surprised nobody mentioned your shirt (one of my favourite Europe-wide). Pay 40M and I'm almost sure he's yours, unless Guendouzi himself refuses. I'd be really sad should he leave, but unfortunately I know OM can't refuse PL's good money. Guendouzi's refusal, if any, would not be a lack of consideration for Villa, but rather a wish to go on here IMHO. OM is on a very exciting trend: second last year, currently third (with 42 points at mid-season) and playing its best football since its last champion title, or even better. No more European cup to play, unfortunately, but it may be our chance to keep an intense rhythm till the end of the season. Five points behind QSG experiencing difficulties since the WC (two losses in three games, against 2nd and 5th of the league): who knows what could happen if QSG collapses... Guendouzi may wish to see the end of the story before going back to PL. If you can afford 40M, you should pay them. You'll like Guendouzi, he's a rather complete player, hard-working, with a strong personality. No attitude problem from my point of view, but he likes trash-talking other team's players (without blowing a fuse himself at any time - no red card since he's been with us). He's the kind of player you love in your team and hate when he plays for another team. Kamara and him know each other very well and are complementary - they have played together for the whole season last year. They seemed to get on well. I'm also pretty sure OM won't take Samson back as part of the deal. Never a good idea to go back with your ex. And Samson doesn't seem to fit with our current level. Don't expect too much information until the deal is closed. OM's management has proved over the recent years that they prefer working quietly. I hope we'll keep him a few more months - at least, don't be stingy if you get him. Remember you got Bouba Kamara for free. 40M for Guendouzi would make an average 20M for each of them, that would be a gift.

I’m still feeling burned from the Ole Gunnar fiasco with plane tracking, so I am refusing to get caught up in it. I think we will sign him, and he will conclude our business for the window unless Ings and Coutinho leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoony Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) I’m a bit lost on this one. Didn’t he kind of flop at Arsenal and was considered a bit shit? I can’t say Ive seen him since so perhaps he has excelled. and he was a bit of a knob at Arsenal and cost £9m only 6 months ago?

It was Unai Emery who signed him at Arsenal, for whom Guendouzi has a lot of respect. Emery left and Arteta came in. Guendouzi's relationship with Arteta was not great and this is when his attitude worsened, and Arteta wanted rid of him. According to Marseille fans his attitude is much better, still a shithouse on this pitch but nothing wrong with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know about that there are mixed opinions but he was only a kid and raw so let’s give him the benefit of doubt but we can’t rewrite history, there are mixed opinions of his time at Arsenal.
