brummybloke Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 A project player, like Rogers, who due to his skill set is part of the 1st team. I'm not sure we would be moving any of our January signings on for FFP. More likely, sponsorship revenue will depend on league position. CL and everything trebles for that season UL everything doubles Duran does something the majority of our players have stopped doing which is see a sight of goal, hit it hard and on target. Most seem to want an extra touch, and extra second on the ball an extra pass... Duran just clearings in the woods it. Could have had a hatrick if diaby squared it to him instead of shoot, he was completely free with the whole goal to aim at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digne, Zaniolo and a few more will all leave and now we have extra revenue from Adidas, Betano and the CL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enda Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Not to be an arse but it annoys me that every single “He reminds me of …” comparisons are to other black players. His football style can be compared to anyone but it’s always lads with the same skin colour. Same is true for white players always being compared to Kane, Robbie Keane, Soksjaer instead of Andy Cole. So for balance, Jhon reminds me of Ally McCoist 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMelvillan Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 I've just got this horrible nagging feeling that Jhon is going to manufacture a move away from Villa Obviously this would make no sense career wise but then I don't think John makes much sense The comments from unai and mcginn makes me think his ego is difficult to quell and I think he will force a move for more money or to a "bigger" club with the hope of playing more football Can only hope he has a good team advising him behind the scenes - or at least a better team than the likes of benteke had. Personally I think unai should adopt him and move him into the family home to keep an eye on him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they can now, they sold their training ground to themselves. Can't see Duran there tbh. He'll be here or abroad. Can see him in Italy.

We are probably just about ok, but pushing the accounting date back a month and asking the FA to move the FFP threshold up to 135m suggests the club is close to the limit. The CL money won't be included in this year's accounts and I'm not sure the kit or shirt sponsorship will either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a deep dive into our finances (not swiss Ramble) and they said that we probably have about £30 million to spend this summer on wages and transfers barring anyone leaving or new sponsorship money coming online. Which isn't a lot really for top 4 calibre players. To be honest getting Mings and Buendia back will be like new signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinker Posted May 14 VT Supporter Share Posted May 14 If champions league qualification is sorted the money comes rolling in from sponsors, I'm sure we will have deals just waiting to be rubber stamped. I think we're going to see quite a bit of money spent and fringe players let go, Durans a brilliant impact sub, perfect tbh, willing to be direct and risk losing possession to score. Would we swap him for Tammy Abraham's? I think i would... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
