Stevo985 Posted July 19, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted July 19, 2015 Would be a crazy decision. Which is why I don't believe it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nazvfc Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 If the mythical media fee is stated as 3million then there will be or should be tons of clubs clamouring for his signature. Hang on a minute-thought so not a single person in the queue. Let's see what happens I expect the transfer team to come up with a suitable replacement IF this is a fact.

Isa Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 (edited) With Delph and Benteke gone/going - i'd argue we have to prioritize replacing them before looking to change our keeper I have no doubt that we are. Working on multiple deals I'd imagine. Whether a keeper is one of them, who knows. But the Begovic bid obviously suggests that Sherwood would ideally like to upgrade on Guzan.

PaulC Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Sherwood has said he wants winners in the side and Guzan is used to losing. Goalkeepers don't go for much so 3 mil for a 30 year old is about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I think we can get more like £5m if he goes back to the MLS - should be a few of them interested in taking their current international #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KHV Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Am I the only one that isn't bothered by him going? I don't think he is that great anyway 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody1000 Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I could see him going back to the MLS. It would be quite a coup for any side there to sign the U.S No1, and as Isa mentioned we would probably get more money. Ideally I would give him another chance, but if we can get £5m for him and upgrade, then I'm not against the idea of getting rid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not bothered in the slightest if I never see Guzan in goal again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 £3 million is really cheap for any keeper with as much top flight experience as Guzan especially considering Guzan is only 30. Sherwood must really want him gone, but I don't see us being able to sign a keeper of Guzan's quality for cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I think changing goalkeeper should be at the bottom of our to-do list Especially when we have a gaping holes in midfield and up front Last of our priorities should be a GK for the time being Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamsonwoodVillan Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I would agree it's not a priority - unless Sherwood is of the opinion that if Vlaar, Delph and Benteke are gone already he might as well just carve the whole Lambert squad up and start again with his own guys in as many positions as possible. I wouldn't be too fussed to see Guzan go but who could we realistically sign who is better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 If Sherwood lets him go for 3mil, he's an absolute retard. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabby Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 The issue now is if we are getting a new keeper we need to tie the deal up to get some preseason time for the defence and keeper to gel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilchard Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 Selling Guzan without a replacement wouldn't be a good idea seeing as we don't currently have a strikeforce either. Unless Bunn is in fact first choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay.P.A Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 No quotes on that article so take it with a pinch of salt. Last week the same paper said he's going to be Villa's no.1 for this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I'm in two minds about this. Two weeks ago I was firmly of the opinion that we should sell Guzan and buy an upgrade. But a lot has happened in the intervening two weeks, and I can sort of see an argument for focusing more on those positions where we most desperately need improvements, especially up front. I still think we can find a better keeper than Guzan, but I have a bit more sympathy for the 'priorities' argument than I did two weeks ago.
