Davids was hardly a water carrier. He was a hell of a player.
I'm sure Bayern would have a look too.
We have a lot of quality players, one of the best managers in the world and brilliant owners. Play our cards right and we are genuine title contenders next season if we keep Morgan Rogers.Get Luiz up to speed, Bailey firing, qualify for Champions League, add extra quality in summer window, bit of luck with injuries, youngsters emerging and the world is our oyster.It really p*sses me off when we start talking about selling our best player/s. Why do we even talk about it? If we act like a 'feeder club' we will always be a feeder club. I reckon the so called 'top 6' don't talk about selling their best players in peak form.I bet Unai is telling Rogers the future is Aston Villa. He could well be right.We need to add quality not talk about losing it.

Ronaldo went there when Man United were at their peak. Alexander-Arnold went there when Liverpool were at their peak. They are the pinnacle and there is a ladder. No point in denying it. There will be serious 100m+ interest in Rogers this summer. Guaranteed. He might leave, he might not, but SCR has changed the game and taking the emotion out of it...I don't think we'll be turning down, say, 120m.

If he were every to be sold we'd get very good money indeed. In this country you could only see Man City (to stop anyone else) or Chelsea (because they are tossers who seem to like signing everyone) being rich enough or prepared to spend that much. Madrid, PSG or Barca are the others who would likely be able to afford him/be prepared to pay.If we keep improving and get Champs League again, then why not stay here? We've been better than all but two in this country so far this season, and are only marginally behind them. We've a real chance, with the ability to spend ourselves in the summer, to go for everything next season.
