Steero113 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Seems to be gathering some momentum this. Definitely the right player profile we should be looking at. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would make sense, problem with Sanson is the amount he’s on. If this deal does go through though then they’ll be able to afford the wages Sanson wants.

VillaChris Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 12 minutes ago, Rustibrooks said: And add in the fact it’s January as well we’ll end up paying above his market value (around €25m). He’s a good player though, I just hope we also have a decent amount left for our forward positions. We could wait until the summer for Guendouzi if needs be. As you say more important we get a decent final third player in given our current issues and lack of depth there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way he signs to be 3rd or 4th choice. What have you got against Luiz? He forming a great partnership with Kamara and if Guendouzi does come in then the three will play together. I’m surprised a fan of another team is so anti a player that on the whole, Villa fans appreciate especially now he plays with Kamara and their developing partnership. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom13 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) Yeah really odd that such an unassuming player (a very talented one at that) is attracting random criticism from a fan of another team.

The_Steve Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Injury to Dougie and/or Bouba would leave us short of quality so this is a no brainer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this could have been a summer transfer that has just been brought forward due to how poor the players were against Stevenage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s also a good point - we need to bridge the gap we have in the quality we have that starts and available from the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if EuroExpert_ wants any sort of credibility in his attempts at journalism then he needs to start with the basics and understand the difference between right and write.

cheltenham_villa Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Speaking to an Arsenal supporting friend, hes a big fan and thinks he would do really well under Emery. His one concern is how disruptive he is, trouble seems to follow him around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see that but also getting targets now rather than waiting for other potential suitors. The pace of this suggests we’ve expedited it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Not a position I thought we'd be looking at but he's a really good player. If he comes in alongside a striker, then la la la. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 If he's an upgrade, good news, I guess, but it's a weird priority IMO. I'd want to be fixing the wings and attack before spending this kind of cash in the centre, hopefully we have other moves lined up and this is just progressing most quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
