BoSelecta Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 27 minutes ago, KaKa said: I mean it's not exactly a flat 4-4-2 with wingers sat out wide Burnley style. One of the strikers drops and plays off the pacey striker looking to get in behind, and the two wide men play narrower in the half spaces like attacking midfielders, and the full backs then bomb on providing the width. It's really a variation of the 4-2-3-1, using another striker to provide more support to the main man upfront, rather than a classic number 10 that might end up dropping deeper more often and leaving the main striker isolated. Thanks for this, top post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worst of all options is spending caps with the current owners in place as this essential allows them to collect rent on ownership of local institutions FFP is so stupid, those teams who spent before and built up the brand when they could spend unlimited amounts (such as Chelsea and that old 2b debt get to impose a glass ceiling on everyone else).

The Prophet Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Should be a good signing for Villa that. They've been after a defensive midfielder for a while too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Interesting choice for him, as it sounded like he had some real options going into the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem being they're losing Beale who to all intents and purposes is the actual tactical mastermind behind the whole set up. Interesting to see how they do without him.

The Prophet Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Aye, the Spanish press seemed certain he was off to Atleti, but yesterday they back tracked and said that Villa had come back with more cash. Interesting that Villa are making the signings that everyone thought we would: Digne, Coutinho and Kamara. It seems we're going a different route though.

Gallowgate Toon Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I really like the look of Kamara but I'm not sure he's a true DM in the Premier League. Strikes me as a Bruno-type player, quick thinker and gets stuck in well but isn't a defensive powerhouse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny that a lot of these signings talk about how big of an influence Gerrard was on the decision. In for a shock when they get there and discover he is actually just a very average manager.

They have had no choice - when they came here four years ago, we were literally one day away from going into administration. They've been great though. They're also putting a ton into the new inner city academy (next door to the ground), and are rebuilding the North Stand after this coming season. They've set up a group company and are bidding for the new MSL Franchise in Las Vegas, Las Vegas Villans. They are in it for the long term, clearly.
