According to Dan Bardell on the Villa View podcast, he reckons that we are trying to sign Arnaut Danjuma from Villareal although Everton are also interested in him.
Can't see him choosing Everton over us, we must be in the box seat IF we want him.

More or less saying the same on Talkshite yesterday, they were commenting on where he is/has been with Villareal, champions league etc, it would be a drop down to end up in a relegation scrap with Everton, far more likely to end up at Villa if we’re interested.

So how did Guendouzi play? I see Veretout scored!
Let's hope he hasn't asked Veretout about his time at Villa. A period of a lot of players lives/careers I'm sure they'd like to forget.

A real wide player. Get him in.

Looks like of another 2 signings will be one for midfield
McKennie 24
Guendouzi 23

And wide forward
Danjuma 25
Delefeou 28

3 of those 4 have played in England and Delefeou has the most experience so I can see Villa signing him.

Delefeou has got loads of ability and can be a real bums off seats player but not sure how consistent he is, Serie A watchers would have to give us a report on that. Also think it might have been a 2+2=5 link from the media. The last i read McKennie is not something we're looking at but the other 2 are quite possibly i'd say.
As much as i like Danny Ings i'd be happy to see us cash in and get a real top striker in to replace him. And no, we don't want Maguire under any circumstances.

Yeah, well Hutton can take on 5 players and curl one in with his weaker foot! What a goal that was! One of the best ever!

As a counter argument to the social media think, Harry Maguire played every game in a World Cup that Mings couldn't get in the squad for.

To be fair to Alan he's probably still got PTSBD, post traumatic Steve Bruce disorder, and is worried we'll be short of centre halves and he'll have to play there again.

Did Dan happen to mention he's been on Sky Sports.?

I think it's a case of there not being much competition there. He is fractionally better than Mings and he was also more experienced and established there than others which is kind of what Southgate said. It wouldn't be worth paying all that in fee and wages to someone who is only marginally better than what we have and also a complete and utter ****** to boot, one which i'd honestly hate to see in a Villa shirt. I think we might have to find a better player for that left side centre back if Mings doesn't finally find some consistency, but if we do it needs to be a significant improvement. Over to the scouts....

I mostly agree except I don't think he is marginally better, at least not in the last year, which is all that really maaters. MaGuire played at the world cup because he was one of the players Southgate built his team around a few years back and he's stayed loyal to that group. It's why Sterling was heavily involved as well.
