Summer Transfer Thread and Gustavo Cisneros Type Rumours.

[Footy-Vill]

Isn’t there another thread somewhere to discuss ex players ?

I think FV is a bit mifffed that the Jack thread has been moved from the main board, so he he's desperatlely trying to keep his views on Grealish here for all to read. It's a bit dull.

Clampo I won't mention anymore give you my word!

His work rate was always spot on, our attacking tactics in the PL were pretty much, give it to Jack and he'll make something happen, and did. From the recruitment it looks like we were aware of those limitations and were doing something about it, but to criticise him for lacking tactical discipline looks a bit like moaning for moanings sake.

Yep, he was a brilliant player for us, any suggestion to the contrary is just incorrect. I don't think he's quite as good as his hype, but few players are.

[Clampy]

Do they bring in Cantwell or give Chucky his chance?

You have as much right to post as anyone else, mate. And everybody else has the right to disagree. Just don't take it personally.

That’s the question we’ll get an answer to within a week...

[Ozzjim]

Do they bring in Cantwell or give Chucky his chance?

Both. Cantwell plays from the left. Chucky can be brought through slowly down the middle. Bailey may take time to adapt.

[BoVillan esq]

So Tuanzebe, a centre mid and I still reckon we will go for Cantwell. To much smoke there.

Cantwell….I am warming to the idea but I still feel he’s a bit lightweight and certainly not in the £25m+ bracket.

Sad day, to imagine not seeing Jack roll out in Villa's colours, start of season, that's going to be painful, even more painful watching him develop into the best player in the country by far, Deano, go and get Cantwell, sure he can really go forward under the Villa banner into a much better player. 

[cdbearsfan]

Yeah, they're not the same player at all. And no matter how good Chucky is, he won't be playing every game yet. Ease him into the side, don't burn him out.

Bedding in is the way to go
Where we play the right system, he's getting in the swing
You come on and look like a king
Chukwuemeka could be that guy
Carney is young and the potentials high
With a bit of right coaching  everything is fine
You're in the mood for a chance
And when you get the chance..
You have the dancing feet young and keen, only seventeen!

As brilliant as the keeper and defence were last season, I hope we don't suffer too many injuries to the back five this season, particularly with the lack of physical presence that we have in front of them.  As good as Buendia and Bailey look on paper, it's still a bit of a gamble further up the Premier Division table and they need additional support in my view in terms of that midfield enforcer, win it back, keep giving them the ball.  I wonder if Dean will want us to press all over the pitch though and not bother with the physical side of the game.  The other thing, will Dean consider moving Watkins to the wing, to accommodate Danny Ings?

And the crowd went wild.

[WassallVillain]

Bang down a 70 million pound offer for Bellingham please'

That would be a statement of intent.  I think this is a possibility.

[cdbearsfan]

Sign Messi and Bellingham and I won't moan about us bringing Tuanzebe back, I promise.

[eamonn]

I thought Footy was quoting Eels instead of Abba when I scanned through his lyrics quickly - "Chukweuemeka could be that guy". Either way, both quality acts.

Ings quite often played on the left of the attack for Southampton, cutting in to shoot. So Deano may keep Watkins up top to stretch the game. I envisage a lot more fluidity in changing positions from our attackers this season. Watkins did a great job moving out on the left against Leeds (away) last season. Caught Bielsa our big time. Buendia can play centrally or right as well so Deano could make us more fluid and unpredictable then last season. I think we need to be to progress.
