The College Dropout Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 41 minutes ago, Cronky said: It looks like Villa are in a bit of financial trouble with PSR. That incorrect refereeing decision against Man U in the final game has probably cost them dearly. Of all the players we've been linked with in the summer, Ramsey is the one that I feel most pleased about. I think he's a very good all-round midfielder. This is likely more a contractual thing (I’m sure they have PSR pressures too). If they are in PSR trouble, they can sell him next year before the June deadline. I guess what I’m saying is no club has to sell in August for PSR reasons only. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Displayname Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 Thiaw mentioned that he had known about our interest for a little while, so it seems not all our focus has been on getting a striker. We have just not made the decision to go for it until now for some reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Willock is injury prone, and Miley is very young. But how many of them naturally play on the right of the midfield or deep? It’s an unbalanced collection to the left side we’ve assembled, all of similar profiles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with Willock out, Longstaff gone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibierski Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 Feels like we have: LCM - Joelinton, Willock, Miley, Ramsey CM - Tonali, Bruno, Miley RCM - Tonali, Bruno Probably going to need Miley to be a strong player for RCM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 I think its a fair assumption that Villa will insist that Ramsey doesn't make our match day squad this weekend. From our point of view, we will surely comply since they could just delay the deal anyway. Not that he would start anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joelinton, Barnes and Gordon are all probably starting aren't they? And Willock out injured? No backups for those position if thats the case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Venkman Posted August 13, 2025 Share Posted August 13, 2025 Another one which improves the quality of the squad but people can’t brag about to their mates who support other teams because they’re somewhat of a known quantity. Tough summer for the bairns who want their shiny new toys. Squad starting to look a lot better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
