thabucks Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Any Serie A fans think Rasmus Hojlund, is worth the hype and a worthy target ? Also believe we will be more likely to sign someone like Pino, Baena, Molerio or Veiga than Xavi Simons although what a talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpTheVilla26 Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Got a feeling Emery is going to pull out at least 1 'Moreno esque' signing. As in, a player that many of us probably wouldn't get over excited about, is just plying their trade under the radar, but would fit into his system effortlessly and we will all be saying they are bloody brilliant. I've never felt so relaxed going into a summer window. Sometimes we've been linked to a player and it's a bit underwhelming but with Emery I reckon he could improve anyone, we've seen it already with this squad, so we should trust the process and know that come the start of next season, we will have exactly what Emery feels we need to challenge. That's good enough for me. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping they’d go for Cherki on the right and that would have left us with a free hit at Asensio. Not a RW but I think Jonathan David could be good as an Asensio alternative as he tends to play on the right up top, whereas Ollie is mainly on the left. Would cost a bomb though, which is perhaps why we were in for Asensio on a free in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's good enough for me. Yeah for sure. At the moment it seems like we're trying hard to get a marquee signing done early to make the rest easier, but I'm sure we'll see a couple like you mention soon enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also be very hesitant to spend that much on any player, let alone one from ligue 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The agent has called all interested parties. All scouts know who is available at any given time. Everyone in Europe knew Asensio was a fee agent. Just because, let's say, Villa and AC Milan were interested in Asensio, and all of a sudden it get's leaked, PSG are not gonna say 'hey, what about this guy? Shall we spend £80m on him?' Just because some twitter storytellers make us aware of things, it doesn't mean clubs that were interested change their approach. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to me though they jump in as soon as its leaked we havs made a offer. Once PSG came in we didnt have a chance. We might find this alot this summer. Trying to get the best players in you have significant competition The good thing though is our owners and the management structure in place seem so organised that they we have various options in place when we miss out on a player. Emerys going to get it right i have no doubt about that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
