Trez will go back to Turkey. Confident we'd get £10m for him. El Ghazi at £15m is a decent price and £5m profit.

I really think people are underpricing AEG.
Inconsistent, yes, but I really think he’s better than most give him credit for.
I’d certainly be looking at £20m

Cantwell and Spearing would be good preparation for our tilt at the League 1 title in 2 years.

Footy back and trolling.

I think he was joking with Spearing but quite why we’d go for Cantwell when we’ve just signed Coutinho is anyone’s guess. Plus the fact that he’s not really much good anyway, consistently at any rate.

Cantwell looked the part about 3 or 4 seasons ago, he’s mince these days.

Cantwell ain’t good enough for where we need to move towards. Also it’s not an area we need to fill.

Cantwell would be well suited to the Villa only if you're talking about the Villa on Tour mob, completing the set of Villa's Inbetweeners.

Absolutely - it might be familiarity breeding contempt, but if you look at his record, age, premier league experience etc. then I’d say £20 million is the going rate. Not sure how long is left on his contract, but I’d be disappointed if we didn’t get a decent wedge for him. I would not be at all surprised if we could screw 20-25 million out of Newcastle by the end of the window, for instance.

I reckon he’s to lazy to play the Bielsa way, he’d be knackered after 15 minutes.

But seriously I do think Villa could still go in for Cantwell.
Available at 15m. Just the sort of energy needed in the squad.

Never a quality PL player in a million years….average fish in a poor side would be 15m totally wasted

I'm at the sty today. My mate won 6 directors box seats with free booze and free food and we still couldn't give away the remaining ticket.

Just a reminder there is always someone worse off than us haha. I'll keep my eye on Jobe and tell you if he's worth poaching

Confused. You just won the seats or have actually been appointed Directors?
