Never really seen all the fuss about him to be honest. Granted I haven’t been studying his career, but he never looks that impressive to me.

If Keinan Davis played for any other PL team we’d all think he is shit

I can't see the fuss either.

Some think he's decent at hold up, hardly any fuss.

Nail on head.

I had a ex missus who could hold balls up quite well - doesn’t mean she could score goals in the premier league.

He’s awful - but I’m not concerned as Smiffy won’t have him anywhere near that line up in 5 weeks.

Thought he looked a class apart in the 0-0 at VP. Hardly wasted a pass and made a number of significant interceptions.

FFS you lot. I only expressed an opinion, I don't know for sure about Davis because I am not a manager and not Nostradamus. You need to get over yourselves.

I don’t think anyone needs to be a manager or Nostradamus, even Stevie Wonder could tell you that one goal in his last 7 seasons = not going to make it top flight.

Considering the season starts in a few weeks, business seems slow. Been two weeks since we confirmed survival. Announce something exciting please Villa.

We need to remember there's still plenty of teams in CL and europa. Let's say we did seriously want Tammy back then we need to wait for Chelsea to finish their season. Then he'll be on holiday for a few weeks. I'd like to think we'll be targeting 2-3 players from teams currently playing in europe.

In normal teams I think this period is a bit like mid June when there's either an international tournament on or loads of players are away on holiday.

I assume we're back in training on Monday August 17th so think business will pick up significantly from that point and we'll sign a player or two that week or before.

At worst we start the new season with the same squad and I'm sure we could pick up a win or two and a few draws like we did in the run in.

The fact that we’ve been recruiting a senior coach and particularly Lange is probably a factor. Only right to have them on board and feeding into the decision making process before we make any big signings.

Declan Rice.
Now there’s a player I wish we were able to go for.
Might be a year or two yet though.

Agreed. Watched him a few times last season and he definitely made West Ham’s midfield tick. £65m though - if that’s the case, then it’s 9 digits for Jack.

Bore off with the Davis chat.  We get it, you don’t rate him.  The Davis thread might be a better place to keep repeating this than the transfer thread.

Keinan Davis is like Emile Heskey. He does everything a striker should do except score goals. Him and Wesley might be able to work together but 2 up front is beyond Dean's comprehension.

Ryan Sessegnon is available form Spurs but seems on his way to Ajax. I'd love for us to be in for him at LB/WB. Massive upgrade on Targett.
