JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Just saw some comments from Emery, where he seems to mention playing him as a Left winger? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also says striker. I think the context might have been that JJ is out for a bit so he can play there . 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramsey is injured for the first month of the season. Don't be shocked if diaby, Bailey and Buendia all rotate around as LW, RF, RM 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrchnry Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 This is such an exciting signing in terms of statements. The thing with Villa is everything is always a false dawn and a promise to take us "back to where we belong". This time it's feeling like we are actually up for contending. This season is our most exciting in years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t say years, I know it seems a long time but it’s only been a week Pau Torres is a massive signing as well. I really think both are massive signings in their own way and will be as key as each other…all great news. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you lot been discussing this? Holy shite. What have we got here? These two are like the tag-team raptors in Jurassic Park. The play that starts at 3:10 is just filthy. No question, overall, that Diaby is more elegantly clever and poised, but Leon brings pace and timing and -- yes -- clinical precision to the proceedings. Perfect complement to Diaby. The pair of them seem to create huge spaces almost at will. Edited July 23, 2023 by Marka Ragnos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine, I mean we recruit well for reasonable fees have a clear plan in place and have a elite structure behind an elite manager. All Man Utd have is an elite manager and that’s it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I took that as we do need to concentrate on outgoings, but later in the window we might do some stuff we can't do right now. Ie: possibly waiting on players like Ferran, Felix, or other players where we might not be able to snap them up now, but later in the window if they have little interest....then maybe then.
