John would never have been so blatant. He'd have befriended the player, become close pals, learnt his routine. Then gone and found his Mrs when said Scunny player was out of town. John's no amateur. Drinkwater sounds like he needs some good coaching.

Just listened to The Villa View podcast and they mentioned sources had us linked with a Rangers midfielder I’ve never heard of, Glen Kamara?

The worry with Drinkwater is his fitness for me and also our history with buying players who have faired well then had their big move before ending up in the scrap heap and then here.

On the basis that he’s barely played any football this season and Dyche has stated that he’s still working his way back to fitness then I’d be inclined to swerve this one. He might be a good signing when fully fit in the summer but right now he’s not and we need someone to come in to hit the ground running rather than getting back to speed. He’s not the messiah...he’s a very naughty boy!

In the Sky article, it  says he would be a replacement for McGinn. He's nothing like him. Thinking about it though, some experience of some sort in the midfield might not be a bad thing

He’s been playing in the Premier League longer than most of our squad by the way.
Actually that goes for both of them.

We need to buy 2 or 3 experienced heads. Enough with the 'project' BS. There will be no project if we end up relegated and needing to sell players like Grealish.

Vida, a midfielder to anchor the team and a proven striker would give us a chance to stay up. It has been a crap Christmas but we still only need to win 5-6 games from the second half of the season. Let's not give up just yet.

If we sign Drinkwater then we haven't learnt a thing and will get relegated.
