Jas10 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 (edited) Bloody exciting, whether or not it happens. An opportunity to get one of the most talented young players around… would shock the football world Unai would get him singing, and if Unai rates or wants him… then we should too… Just to be linked to such a player or even be in the conversation is a big deal for the club… no one would ever have imagined this kind of thing before Unai arrived and worked his magic… Edited July 12, 2023 by Jas10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Awol Posted July 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 12, 2023 If Emery wants Felix, and Felix wants Villa, and we can afford him… ….I’m trusting Emery over our VT muppet show. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're the only ones to make an offer so far. My view is that Joao isn't quite as good as he thinks he is. That's not to say he isn't a very good player, and I think we are actually about his level. But I saw a decent amount of him at Atleti and was never entirely convinced. Maybe it could have been the constraints of playing under Simeone, but I don't think he has ever consistently shown why they paid so much money for him.

thunderball Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Emery wanted Felix in Jan, maybe he’s a better judge of Felix and how he could benefit Villa than us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshharris12 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Would be absolutely massive imagine a window of, tielemans,pau,Diaby,Felix…… with maybe a right back and HOPEFULLY a back up keeper 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villan_of_oz Posted July 12, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted July 12, 2023 I don't think Felix is worth the wages he would want, but I have said it before and I will keep saying it....... In Unai, I trust! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna keep banging this drum: Needs the right environment and needs the right manager… The same applies and has applied to so many talented players. Form is temporary, class is permanent… If (BIG IF) there’s a way we can comfortably afford and negotiate a deal… and if Unai wants and rates him… it’d be silly not to get it done… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villaphan04 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 the loan with an option/obligation to buy (after hitting clauses) makes sense for us I would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
