nufcjb Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Proper happy we got Barnes over Maddison. Maybe not as big a star or as flashy but Barnes fits well with the rest of the players and the mindset of the club. Maddison probably a bit too gildfish in a bowl player. What happened to Diaby at Villa? Would he have kasted longer here? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Maddison was never going to fit our system anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie_once_removed Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 For me the sacrifices the team would have had to make to accommodate Maddison isn't worth what he would have brought to the team, so I'm glad he went elsewhere. He has quality no doubt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Bit harsh on Carlos isn't it? He just got a massive injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-421 Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 I mean, you can say these players are all 'dodged bullets' but we have no idea that they'd have been as disappointing had they been here, under Eddies coaching. ok, maybe apart from Lingard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcmk Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 In the managerial context we definitely dodged a bullet with not getting EtH. From collection everyone on this forum, myself included, wanted him to take over. Fortunately he wasn't interested. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlos was probably a good defender, but wasn't he close to 30? His resale value will be pretty low by the time he leaves Villa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
