Which positions do you feel Villa need to prioritise on to progress next season Villan?visitingvillan wrote: ↑Wed Jun 02, 2021 6:59 pm We're linked with a move for both Buendia and now Emile Smith-Rowe. Don't think ESR happens but was very funny to see the arsenal fans reactions on social media.

Re: Aston Villa Thread
Raphinha for 30 million
But realistically, it's interesting because I don't know where Dean wants Jack to play, either LW or CAM. Because I'd say I would want us to focus mostly on whichever position he isn't planning on playing Jack at. Which is why the Buendia & Smith-Rowe links really excite me. Maybe a CDM and young CB.
Also need a backup LB since we only have Targett on the books now, he did play in all but the last 15 minutes of one game -- where he came off due to him being recovering from COVID.

Do you think Grealish will still be with you next season Villan?

Re: Aston Villa Thread
There are very few people I would love to smack in the mouth but Grealish is one of them.
He got someone sent off recently and although the red was overturned on appeal it seems there was no sanction against the diving little s**t.

Re: Aston Villa Thread
yeah, I do. Similar with Phillips, he's with his boyhood club -- I find it hilarious that Arsenal and united fans keep on thinking that he supports them when he's only really said he enjoys playing at their grounds. I also expect that we would be looking for a fee in excess of 100million and realistically only a few teams can afford him at that price and they have other options. Also don't think he'd go City unless guaranteed to be a starter which won't happen.

Re: Aston Villa Thread
Villa closing in on Emi Buendia.
Initial fee of around £30mil, will rise to £40mill with add ons according to John Percy.
No disrespect to Villa but when i was growing up the idea of Arsenal losing out to Villa in a transfer battle was ridiculous.
Shows how far Arsenal have fallen.
Good player Buendia, credit to Villa for getting the deal done early.
Lot of money though for a player whose in his mid 20s and whose best seasons have been in 2nd divisions.
Will need to hit the ground running.

completely agree with everything like you say. Now tbf I think you guys with Bielsa and an actual plan are a more attractive proposition than Arsenal.Cjay wrote: ↑Sat Jun 05, 2021 5:08 pm Villa closing in on Emi Buendia.

Re: Aston Villa Thread
lol second quote. I absolutely love it. Will probably slot in as our #10 and interchange with Grealish. Might've overpaid but we wanted the deal done and didn't fall asleep on the ball like Arsenal probably did. And to be honest, Arsenal's offer might've been in installments which hurt them even more

Both of us seem to be on the rise whilst Arsenal stall.

We were linked with Buendia, Benrahma etc.
But we went abroad and ended up getting such brilliant value.
Llorente and Raph combined for example cost the same as what Buendia will cost you.
Its a very inflated market and has been for years.
That being said Buendia is quality and could be worth £60,70mil if he realises his potential, quite similar to Raph imo (not as good of course ) but he has that tenacity that is quite rare in flair players.
Not a fan of Villa generally (as you guys arent of us) but Buendia is a good player who will undoubtedly improve you and it still annoys me that we had the opportunity to sign Buendia befoew Norwich and didnt.
Fair play for not pissing about like Arsenal did.

Must be horrible for the Norwich fans following a club with no ambition!
Re: Aston Villa Thread
They're an isolated club with no rivalries, so need to try and invent some, same reason they hate us so much. A lot of it is jealousy that they've never established themselves as a proper PL club and are a nothing yo-yo club.Cjay wrote: ↑Sat Jun 05, 2021 5:35 pm https://forum.pinkun.com/index.php?/top ... la-thread/

It's on a par with Blunts paying £40 mil for McBoozie and Brewster. Well done JT
