Tielemans (CM) Zaha (Winger/CF) Thuram (CF) Ndicka (CD) Kamada (AM) Laimer (CM) Asensio (RW) Skriniar (CD) Grimaldo (LB) Guerreiro (LB) Keita (CM) Aouar (CM/AM) I.Martinez (CD) M.Dembele (CF) de Vrij (CD) Belotti (CF) Coufal (RB) Ceballos (CM) In order Kamada, M. Dembele, Asensio, Thuram. Would have love Laimer but he’s all but signed for Bayern I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Made In Aston Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 6 hours ago, useless said: President Antonio Miguel Cardoso's exact words “There were preliminary talks between V Sports and the previous management, but they were on hold as I became president in March of last year. No contact was made then due to a series of developments that were not positive. We started talking again because of Aston Villa’s interest in a Vitória player." Adds credance to the Bamba rumours that came out straight after the realtor discussions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burchy Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Is anyone worried about the level of players we’re being linked with? The likes of Bamba and the winger from Barca. They’re a bit underwhelming and I can’t help but think there is better out there. I know there might be something that the coaches see in these players but they don’t appear to be ripping up trees for their current clubs (Moleiro the exception) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe you said half the league would bid £15m. Not sure that happened. I didn't forsee West Ham being incomprehensibly stupid, luckily for us, they were. Just wonder who is paying £10-15m? For Digne. Hopefully West Ham again actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Ilias is a young prospect. I think we will be heavily focused on France and Spain and South America moving forward for the most part. I don't see us throwing money at the likes of Sarr again when there's better value elsewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is we need players that are the next step up, we've got to start shopping in waitrose... And we won't be buying 7 players in there That little bit more quality in key positions should raise everyone else, so should more time with emery pound for pound we already have a better squad than teams above us, including Newcastle 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 I’m not going to be disappointed if we bring in only 2/3 players of real quality. Maybe one young punt like Duran too. Ideal summer for me. This way the squad improves and it’s not another bloody overhaul. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading this thread, I think the only player no-one has mentioned getting rid of is Kamara. We won't (and shouldn't) do a Forest/Chelsea this summer. A few significant additions (and then a couple of current first team move to back up) and 1 or 2 young prospects, I'd be fine with, . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
