The College Dropout Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Transfer doesn’t entirely make sense to me. Ok Kamara is injured probably until 2025 and he’s that replacement. Ok cool. But that’s an expensive replacemsnt. £15-17.5m for amortisation. Thats surely all the profit from the Diaby deal gone. Kamara will cost 7.5m. Meanwhile they still need to replace Diaby and Luiz. Maybe I’m hating. It’s a good signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, saying 4 players doesn’t really tell the truth Well, literally aye it does, but you get the point. We have plenty of time. Quality before quantity, and it will happen, no rush.

gbandit Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Villa always get their business done early. There’s no way I’d pay that sort of money for Onana. He does look way better for country than club though so I’m sure he’ll look a lot better at Villa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've also just appointed a new Sporting Director who specialises in recruitment who probably wants to get his feet under the table before signing off on any deals, as well as lost Staveley and Mehrdad who where also key parts of the transfer committee, so I imagine they'll be waiting for the dust to settle, before blowing a load over the transfer window.

So I can see his point about us not even got started yet, which we haven’t really despite signing 4 players. We will get started properly soon though, no doubts about it.

janpawel Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Bit jealous of Villa, maybe a fairly unpopular opinion but I really rate Onana, or at least what we can offer in a good team with a good coach Huge, fast, athletic, eats up space when defending transitions, and is quite ambitious with his passing albiet deffo can be improved Always thought a midfield 3 of Onana at the base, Bruno and then a more attacking midfielder as the other 8 would he such a good midfielder, with Bruno dropping deep to help orchestrate distribution Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought Luiz was more the passer and Kamara more the legs. They’ve replaced the legs but not the passer was my thinking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
