However, both are much better than Buendia who is slow, weak and careless in possession. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beundia is played to find that “number 10” pass, I would expect his pass success figures to be lower otherwise he is just another centre mid, defence splitting passes fail more than they succeed, but you win or lose on the minority that work. The game today was a prime example, lots of possession, little penetration 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love us to sign a RB but I think they’d need a good few weeks to learn Emery’s offside trap so even if we sign one I don’t think we will see much of them before March… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexvilla4 Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 A lot of mentions for Frimpong, but are there any other suggestions for realistic right backs we could get that would be available for the right price, would suit our style and be willing to come? I've always like Kyle Walker-Peters but not sure how much of an upgrade he would be over Cash. The AZ right back looked decent against us and is quite highly rated. Are there many la liga or bundesliga right backs that tick the boxes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tielemans can do what Buendia can do. Classic case of player being x1000 better because he’s injured. Not good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t rate him, I disagree it is what it is but has nothing to do with injury. Credit to Emery, he has evolved the way we play to offset the pressing Beundia did higher up the pitch Edited December 30, 2023 by macandally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s face it Palace are never going to be a top 6 club so I think both players would move to Villa but Palace would indeed be looking top money for both if willing to sell and to make them sell the offers would need to be excessive but that money could be recouped elsewhere. For example, if the interest in Luiz is true then he would command a massive fee. If it meant getting those two to Villa Park while losing Luiz then do it!

OLDVILLAIN Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 I would sell Cash in a heartbeat for the right price in january. If that sale happened we would have to get an excellent RB and a cover for said option. We simply cannot have players like Kamara injured without an equal replacement so i would expect movement either now or in the summer to remedy that. Douglas luiz has struggled and not his usual self because of kamara's absence. The midweek cup game is a blessing in disguise and hope we can rest some of the players as they looked tired today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 We still really need Cash but can clearly improve in his position. Futile selling him now (although I suspect those calling for it are joking!) but we need another RB to take his first team spot and allow Konsa to return to CB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
