Summer transfer, gossip, speculation and the usual butter ollocks thread

He's a very exciting player for sure, and signing him as well as £30m striker would be quite the statement.

I watched a few videos of him when the first links started (In January) and decided immediately that he was the perfect fit for what we need. Since then I've watched a few of their games since the restart and he's stood out despite supposedly not being at his best.

Don’t watch his YouTube reel. It’s obscenely good.

Oh my God! I've just been watching it, but the thought of him on one side and Jack on the other got too much for me. I've had to turn it off!

Same here, couldn't watch it all, had to stop. I get the feeling he's not a bad player, two footed, can play on the left flank or right , wicked shot on him and rather fast with the ball at his feet. He'll do for a season or two.

Any news on him. Is a deal likely?

The Bayern goal (11) is something else, fantastic strike. I also really like the Dortmund one (3).

Rashica and Grealish flanking Watkins seems very exciting.  Rachica and Watkins flanking Edouard with Grealish just behind even more so.

Villa analytics take on Rashica.  He's got some reservations -

Can't see Twitter posts as I'm not on there.

Undoubtedly looks a good player. Saying his two-footed may be stretching it though. He looks very right footed to me and his left is more of a swinger.

Rashica is the right age and a position we need.

He had a good start to last season but fell away somewhat after Christmas. However Werder Bremen were doing badly and they only survived relegation via a play off on away goals in the end. I think he missed that high scoring England v Kosovo match a year ago but obviously he's probably Kosovo's best player.

I think I would still prefer Benrahma but Rashica is the kind of player who could come good.

We can get Collymore to show him the delights of Cannock Chase then, that should close the deal.

I just hope this isn’t going to turn into the modern day Benni McCarthy mystery.

Yep, I have that feeling. I don't understand why Cisneros doesn't just put his hand in his pocket and pay what they want to get him.

McCarthy, Kiyotake, Belhanda etc feels just the same.

Just don't see it coming off, and having watched the highlights, I still think I prefer Benrahma.
