Upgrades then McGinn has only scored once from midfield this season
And no more than 3 in Prem in a season.
He has actually missed some guilt-edged scoring chances, so he will clearly be replaced by a goal-scoring midfielder in my opinion.

But who can replace his goggle celebration? Tell me that!
It's interesting Ginny has scored  exactly the same number of goals for club and country.
16 goals in 173 matches for Villa and 16 goals in 54 matches for Scotland

He also scored double amount in the championship 6 goals than he has in the Prem where he scored 3 the last 3 seasons.

I think there's an indication of what level he is regards being able to offer the goals.

McGinn gives us badly needed spunk in midfield, we need someone like him to chuck himself about and oppress the opposition in a way that none of our other midfielders can.

How much you reckon we'd get for McGinn if we sold him? He's been really good since Unai came in but if you could get someone to do the same but with added goals then you go for it.

30m and I'd sell  8)

£30m?
Flippin heck, mate, the way he’s been playing lately I’d be looking for a lot more than that

I said £20m a few months ago and it got laughed at. I know he wasn't playing great but £20m seems to be the starting price nowadays.

I can't remember him being culpable for many big misses.

Based on current form you would struggle to replace him for under 40 50 million.
So it’s a keep.

He’s rarely in the Gilt edged area of the pitch. Unless you are counting shots from outside the box? Which would be harsh

If/when Leeds go down, I'd take Tyler Adams off their hands. Arsenal, Newcastle and Atletico Madrid all circling the carcass.

I don't think he's a big improvement on anybody we've got to be honest.

Leeds best player and top scorer would be the only one from that lot could see coming in. Spain International Rodrigo Moreno

No specifically when he's been in the box and in a position to score and hasn't taken it. It's not as apparent as Watkins but between his recent goal against Chelsea to when he last scored for us there have been instances where he was very poor finishing.

Why are people trying to sell our captain? As for his goals record, unlike with Scotland his position isn’t about getting into the box all the time, last 3 months he has embraced Emery’s tactics more than anyone and has been absolutely excellent - totally not on the sales list for me.

Footy vil is a world class wind up merchant I swear to god. McGinn has been absolutely class under the new manager, is the captain and is absolutely dominating. We need more goals from our forwards more than anything.
