Tomaszk Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Have to wonder what's gone on with Guendouzi. I thought that was nailed on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the renaissance of McGinn perhaps. Adams has been brought up through the Red Bull philosophy of pressing the ball and is one of the best pressers of the ball in the league IMO… He is highly versatile and plays a simple game so that McGinn, Kamara, Luiz etc. and our flair players can do their thing and pick the pass. Signing him makes a lot of sense due to this. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 I rate him and Leeds defensively went to pieces as soon as he got injured in February so that shows his value in a poor team. We're well stocked in midfield. However Kamara did miss 15 league games last season so I assume the thinking there is he could come straight in rather than play Luiz and SJM deeper when they were both excellent in more advanced midfield positions. Having Adams and Tielemans at start of season as rotation/back up options shows how far we've come I think if we sign him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramsey being brilliant from Mid March has killed our interest I think, sometimes it's all about timing as we certainly wanted him in January. Marseille also made CL in the end.

Hard to see any game time for Donk if we do sign Adams so can see him being offered around europe for 15m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozvilla28 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Looks like a destroyer in the midfield breaks up play and feeds it off keeps it's simple neat and tidy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 He also has a bit of venom in him on the pitch, which is what we still lack somewhat. I hated him before I heard his World Cup press conference which he handled really well under pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I'm a little surprised at this link, Emery will make him a better player and he knows what is needed to compete in all competitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wishywashy Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Just imagine Kamara and Adams closing down games together. Mmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Bogart is extremely reliable and connected to USMNT players. If he says Villa are in, they are most likely in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlobalVillan Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Just been on to the MOT forum and most seem to be happy to sell Adams. Hilariously tho, one poster says he rates him higher than Kamara. Lolol. I mean, wtf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably time to accept that reality now. I do think the Guendouzi interest has cooled but I think the Tielemans signing was more opportunism as we had to work fast to get a good deal. I don’t think it means we won’t continue to strengthen the midfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
