Always rated him

Must spell doom for kalinic or Nyland or both as I'm sure Steer hard-earned at least a 2nd spot

Cant wait for our first game of the season when we can show off our revolutionary 8-8-5 formation.

I accept it’s all paper bollocks but I like the thought of us raiding every single championship club that’s wronged us over the past 3 years.

I’m picturing that assassination montage at the end of godfather.

Would like Etheridge. I'd let Steer keep the shirt too. But we definitely need someone proven to compete with him, IMO

I doubt we would release him on a free, we are unlikely to get our money back but would at least get something for him. The only people that would have paid to have McCormack around are the various branches of Greggs.

Presume Hogan is next for the old heave ho ?

There was supposed to be a clause in his contract that if Sheffield United got promoted, they would pay a fee to sign him permanently.

Hogan is no McCormack. They've been equally shite or us but Hogan wanted to play (and turned up).

Love the way Villa know exactly what they want, players out, players to keep, targets, needing to strengthen while keeping core, Mings, El Ghazi plus building around Grealish. Link between Smith/Purslow/owners 👍 #avfc

Purslow and Smith said last week they would deal with moving players out in the next few days before looking at bringing people in. All seems very much part of their plan.

Etheridge, Steer and Nylund for the keeper roles - Loan or sell Kalinic if we are not sure - he looked out of his depth in the Championship but I am sure someone will pay near enough what we did to take him.

Jota as a backup 10.

Mings, El Ghazi and Hause on perms.

Leaves 2 midfielders, a left back and 2 strikers as a minimum to add seriously good players to have a competitive squad.
