I like Amrabat currently on loan at Man utd. One of the best players in the last World Cup.

Didn't fit in at Man Utd (who would!!) but would be an asset to a proper team.

Loan not being made permanent and Fiorentina want 17m.

He's incredibly slow, not suited to the PL

Remember when Ron went to the world cup and came back with Fashanau?
And we recently saw some shitty media outlet describe said player as 'a Villa legend'. Not in my lifetime!

Amrabat was one of those Belgium-based players tipped for the big time early 20s.

Went to Fiorentina and did well.

Lack of pace seemingly hasn't stopped Tielemans tonight either. 

I do wonder if Amrabat's other qualities cancel out that deficiency. Based on his season with Yanited, it's a no. But not many players have played to their potential at Dysfunctional FC these past few years, so it's hard to gauge.

Thanks Mr Gage, I feel less ashamed now.

If only he were as quick as the pile-on on Baldy.

Tim to Ajax (bbc gossip page)?

Ajax are exploring a deal for Aston Villa's 20-year-old English midfielder Tim Iroegbunam. (Football Insider)

It’s football insider, so, more than , a stab in the dark.

If there is an element of truth, and we are willing to sell, it would be a decent move for him.
Young team who will get better, and he’d be mentored by Henderson.

Amrabat wouldn't be top of my list, but it is difficult to judge players in that team, especially midfielders. Ten Hag seems to have settled on a 'style' of play that regards the midfield as something you know you should do something about but bypass every time, like ignoring a homeless person.

Some Dybala rumours this morning. Likely rehash of old news. But we’ve apparently asked about his availability in the summer. Wouldn’t cost a lot (€13m if you believe the stories), but wages would be pretty decent I imagine.

Isn't he injured more than Keinan?

Nobody is injured as much as Keinan. Dybala seems to play 20-25 games a season.

Keinan has an injury record more usually associated with dare devil motorbike stunts in the 1970's

Your average 19 year old in Vietnam in 1968 had more chance of staying out of physical strife than Keinan.

He has more time off than Father Christmas.
