Other clubs' transfers

Disasi and Rashford. Very meh and unimaginative from villa. Keep it up lads

[Gaztoon]

Truly believe howe would sort this lad out.

[The Butcher]

Rashford is finished imo. Cares more about the lifestyle than the actual football.

 

Be amazed if this works out well.

[Kimbo]

If he won’t work off the ball for his boyhood club and £350k a week, then why would he do it for us or Villa for a lot less money (assuming he would take a giant pay cut).

Aren't villa already screwed wages wise?  They seem to be just gambling to me

[ExiledGeordie]

Anyone think Arsenal might come back in for Watkins in the summer? Yes he’s not 24/25, but he’s a ready made prem striker and an Arsenal fan.

They have been waiting for Sesko.

Rashford just seems toxic, not sure it’s necessary for Villa. Guys ego is huge. 

[ponsaelius]

A Maldini in black and blue is somewhat jarring.

Maybe using the Duran fee to consolidate wages across their squad, rather than maximise the 70m with new signings? Just an idea

No, he’s part of the bomb squad.

Never fit.

Would be annoying however if they did get the Rashford of a few years ago and he helped fire them back into a champions league place. 

 

I'd back Emery over most to get something from him. But hopefully it will be a car crash. 

[Sibierski]

Rashford will be a very good signing for Villa. Amazing how many people lap up the negative narrative around him.

 

Why couldn’t we sign him for that ffs.

[nufc123]

Not many willing to touch him it seems.

[Menace]

It is understood Marcus Rashford is keen on staying in Manchester so would commute to Aston Villa training. @JPercyTelegraph

Hope not, he absolutely smashed it for 5 months after a January loan deal.

Cherki for 22 feels low?

I like Danso and it's a good signing.

 

I really don't envy him having to come into that Tottenham team at the minute though, and defending in Ange's kamikaze football.

[Fak]

Ffs. 
 

 

[andyc35i]

We really need to be looking to do some deal in the final few days - we need to refresh the squad and can’t just stand back while others do

I have no idea how Villa are intending to manage this turnover to wages ratio business that’s coming in?

[Sima]

Aston Villa’s player turnover is quite something.
