Summer 2022 Transfer Thread

[Ian.]

I forgot how good he can be but he is a winger (in a team that does not play wingers) time will tell if he can play as a number ten. Plus will he get ahead of our other number tens?

and no it's not like having a new signing......lets see what happens in pre-season

During his Everton cameo I really thought our season had stepped up a gear and as a team with him in it, we’d be a threat and Grealish would be a distant memory.

Hopefully with a decent preseason and Gerrard working out how to get the best out him, he could be so exciting for us.

Bailey is absolutely a confidence player.

Said this before but last season with all the injuries, I reckon he was just too eager to please. Full fitness and a full pre season and we'll start to see what he has got.

[Brazilian Villain]

Why is Vill being picked on? He makes perfectly reasonable points.

Maybe they thought his account had been hacked.

Yep he has loads of talent and fingers crossed he’s a point of difference and can be a major asset.

Having said that, the only Wink(s) I'd be up for us signing is the one that could take us to a higher state of consciousness.

You’re Joshing aren’t you?

Don't laugh.

What he says about Gerrard and Young is interesting and shows why we offered Young a new deal.

Seems to be a bit of talk of Zinchenko this morning.

Can't see that's a likely signing at all.

[PeterWithe]

Ive only ever seen him playing, impressively, at left back so no idea if he’s what we need in midfield.

He looks good there for Ukraine.

Zinchenko would be a great signing.

[mrfuse]

Under normal circumstances I would say signing Zinchenko isn't within our reach, but after seeing some of the players come in recently I wouldn't rule it out. I don't think he particularly likes playing left back and the rumours are that's why he wants to leave Man City.


This would be a great signing, whenever I've seen him play in midfield for the Ukraine he's been fantastic. If we were able to sign him and play him in midfield he would also provide cover for Digne.

Carney doesn't strike me as a lad who is massively proud of being at Aston Villa.  He mentioned Gerrard being a quality player but doesn't come across as star struck with any of the other Villa players, although mentioned Ashley Young's encouragement. 

Zinchenko?  Yes please, good player, smart passer, energetic and good competition for the left back and central midfield spots.

He ran the game when they beat Scotland, I was impressed.

I think that would be the main issue. Who would you drop?
