Summer 2022 Transfer Thread

[ChicagoLion]

Without intimate knowledge of the Professional and Personal dynamics of the senior coaching team, I find it difficult that any one may give an accurate assessment of the situation.

Linked with someone called Diego Carlo from Seville, big money. Never heard of him.

This is how the Russians will close down the H&V forum in 2030.

£27m?

Tactics Tim might be available to step in as SG's assistant. At least he knows the club.

Don't worry, we'll get Lange on the case and it'll be down to £3.75 and a half pack of quavers by the time the transfer goes through.

I was under the impression that his release clause was around £65-70m.. at 29 years old, if he's good enough, that seems like decent business?

Never heard of him before this week but if we don't sign him now I will be seriously pissed off. Would that be us ending our pursuit of Tarkowski or are we after two centre-halves, do we think?

Diego Carlos reports seem to be 31m euros or 50m euros with add ons. 

It's a shitload of money for a 29 year old - I'm really not sure at that price.  But when you see what a difference a nect level defender like VVD makes then maybe.  I don't know enough about him - is he that good?  IF he really is a difference maker - maybe the step between qualifying for Europe and not - I guess it could be worth it? 

He's right footed but plays on the left, so a Mings replacement.

Thoughts?

Well, Sevilla only surrendered 30 goals last year.. lowest in La Liga. In today's game, I don't even know what a shitload is anymore. He would be the most competent on-ball CB that we've had in some time.

Agreed a fee for Diego Carlos according to the OS

LET'S GOOO! I've got to give credit to the club. It seems that as soon as the media get a sniff of a deal, it's already done.

Bloody hell. We are not messing around.

[Toronto Villa]

we simply do not fuck around

Sod costs. Bollocks to resale value.

If we are looking at bringing top quality players into the club who are an upgrade on what we have, then bring it on.
Forget promising youngsters, moneyball players and players looking for a last big pay day.
Players in their prime who can lift us into the next level is what I want.

Our owners have the ambition, they just keep on proving it.

I’m loving all the speculation, the names we are linked with and a feeling of progress that is underway.

UP THE FECKIN VILLA.
