He hasn't settled at AC Milan currently so they might be happy to move him on for the right price. He is tall at 6'4 and deceptively quick and his technical skill and link up play would be a massive improvement on Bailey and would get so many more goals for Watkins and the midfield. He can also cover several positions and is only 22 with a really high ceiling of potential He has looked way out of his depth at Milan, plays like a child asked to play in a mans game. Terrified to do anything He would be eaten alive in England at the moment and would be a downgrade on Bailey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRO Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 (edited) I have a kinda mixed view on players, who only want Champions league football. I kinda like, I want the other 10 to get it for me. I rather like fighters, who are willing to join a team, who are out for the prizes, but not quite got there yet. I like the players who say to themselves, me added to this team, and we can go somewhere....Thats what happened when Peter Withe joined.

The more intelligent players from abroad will realise that playing one big team in a champions league group home and away before getting knocked out is nothing compared to playing the likes of Arsenal Citeh Chelsea Manure and Aston Villa home and away in the greatest league in the world with the best renumeration. You also get to play teams like Newcastle and Spurs in addtion to that . English players yearn to play in the Champs League. Foreign players yearn to play in the Prem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick76 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Agree with most of the above but I’m not expecting big star names anyway. I’m expecting players that fit Emery’s system and not glamour names. I’m also expecting players that were once thought good but haven’t quite worked out at their current clubs, doesn’t Emery have a history with that kind of player. Also players we haven’t thought about but when we research them that they make sense like Moreno has. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another reason why he is a great manager for a club like us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Feels a bit of a midfield Jack of all trades to me, needs to nail down his best position, surprisingly it won't be the one that Southgate gives him... If he came here and did then 100% yes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not on the wages he’s demanding, don’t think he’s particularly great either. Every time I watch him he’s decent and full of energy for 20 mins and then is anonymous for the other 70.

sne Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Rasmus Højlund currently making sure that there will be a bidding war for his signature this summer. Another 2 goals for Denmark takes him to 5 goals in 2 games this week. Not bad for a 20 y.o. Doubt we are in with a shot for him but looks quite the talent. Obviously already been dubbed "the new Haaland" even thou he's not Norwegian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would definitely take Mount but I suspect he'll go higher up the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
