KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 1 minute ago, GarethRDR said: Just occurred to me I did actually see Zaniolo play during my Rome hols 4 years ago. Here's my scouting report from the 18 minutes he was on the pitch: He came on for Justin Kluivert. Sassuolo immediately scored. He won a corner. Nothing came of it. The game ended. Strengths: +Entering the pitch in a timely manner. +Didn't have that dodgy facial hair yet. Weaknesses: —May have used his time on the bench to ponder grow dodgy facial hair. Conclusion: You're welcome, VT. I’m impressed that you colour-coded your scouting report. Shows diligence. And that you know your way around the formatting toolbar. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRO Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 31 minutes ago, Risso said: Personally I'm a little bit worried about his terrible injury record. He looks a talented player but he hasn't half missed a whole load of football. Are we limited to transfers where Monchi has worked with the incoming player? This seems a huge risk to me. Maybe not financially, just in terms of wasting a signing. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wouldn't think it was the same player we signed. I think Zaniolo will be just fine and some injury history to some players need to be taken with a pinch of salt imo.

AvfcRigo82 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 13 minutes ago, Risso said: He's missed a whole season's worth of games SINCE his ACL injuries though. It's a low risk loan signing with an option to buy.. there's no harm. If he breaks down half way through the season and he's done thrn we just take him back to the shop and buy something else with our money instead. If the club where about to part with £40m-£50m then I would understand the concern from some and I would equally be concerned too. It's a no risk loan and a very astute piece of business done by the club on this occasion. I think we should get behind him and see what he delivers rather than worrying about him suffering a reoccurring injury. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had listened to Fergy's assessment of him the guy wouldn't have found a club again. Turned out to be one of the greatest PL defenders of all time - with two dodgy knees and only light training schedules too. Martin Laursen is another. We knew his history with AC Milan.. And yes he was also unlucky with injuries in his time with us, but when he played, he was one of our best CB's to wear a Villa shirt! His legend status amongst fans speaks for itself even with his massive injury history he had with us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummybloke Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Various places saying villa was to renegotiate the deal due to injury concerns. This one's become very frustrating. Other places saying Acuna should be signing for us today or tomoz. What would normally be exciting and entertaining is becoming frustrating due to our current injury list.
