MaVilla Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 i do wish sometimes we could go back in time, with knowledge of the future and just say to Villa, sign these fellas asap...... Caicedo - 5m, Mitoma - 3m , Eze - 18m, Raphinha - 18m, Olise - 9m, Livramento - 5m, Estupinan - 18m, Palhinha - 20m, Lavia - 12m.

Not trying to add fuel to the fire, but Musiala is actually a product from Chelsea's academy . Love Kimmich. I actually share a bit of Philosopher's concerns about the Bundesliga, mainly from importing Bundesliga "star forwards" (Havertz wasn´t up to par, Weghorst sucked, Werner sucked, Immobile sucked, Schurrle sucked, Mario Gomez was terrible, etc.). Obviously Haaland is the best striker in the world, Sané was good, etc. so not automatic at all, but still a concern. Bundesliga style differs greatly and is basically a farmer's league for Bayern. I wouldn't touch Fullkrug with a 10-foot pole. Edited July 10, 2023 by Daulmakan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody can do it on a cold Tuesday in Stoke. That is why I'm forever grateful they are not in the Premier league!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 If we are looking at right-backs we should definitely be following Lutsharel Geertruida who can fill in at centre half or holding mid if you really need. I don't think we are in general, but we shall see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only (obviously, we can keep all our good signings also.....thanks) Yeah but instead we signed Kamara Luiz McGinn and Tielemans for 18 mill and developed Grealish and JJ. If we sold the rest of them tomorrow you wouldnt get any change from 150 mill and thats maybe even conservative. I know what you mean as alot of our signings have been maybe questionable, but hindsight is something that is experienced alot in the Prem as far fewer transfers work than don't work.

Yep, and that goal alone and nothing else is what has kept him from being hailed as a terrible flop like Werner was (0,21 vs. 0,18 goals per game). While certainly nice to have the winning goal in the UCL finals, I expect more from my 70 million investment. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they just got 55 million for him so I would say his cost/success ratio was better than most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
