Why do Chambers and Diaby threads remain ?
Yet Douglas Luiz thread who was here longer does not remain on main service board.
There needs to be a protocols time frame for when a player thread gets moved.

Mate have you got nothing else to think about? Nothing else bigger in your life to worry you ffs.

Just go out for a walk for a bit

sky sports saying we are in Anwar El Ghazi

didn't he play for villa some years  ago ?
Yeah, a season on loan in the Championship then 2-and-a-bit seasons in the Premier League.  Got shifted out on loan to Everton.  That move didn't really work for anyone.  Then has had a bit of trouble since at PSV then Mainz 05 (the latter because of some comments he'd made about Gaza, dunno what the situation as PSV was).

Decent winger.  Great penalty taker, but a bit inconsistent for the Premier League.  I reckon he'd still do a job in the Championship, though.  Interesting couple of signings if you do get him, both players who you could imagine playing at a lower-ranked Premier League team IMO - pretty strong signings for Championship level :)

Diolch  ;D

There is.

We keep it here to give any discussion of the outgoing transfer enough time to breathe and die down. Then after a few days without any posts on the subject it gets moved to Other Football.

You genuinely don't need to worry about it.

Stick him on penalties!

why ?
Because he's fucking brilliant at them.  One of the best pen takers I've seen at Villa.

oh sounds promising . thanks for replys
I've now realised this is not Villa transfer news because this is someone asking on behalf of Cardiff City.
I initially was excited to learn Villa were linked with El Ghazi!
As Emery would make him even better ! Tbf Dean Smith did that!
I have fond memories of this player who is a wide forward uses both feet and takes a super penalty.
He actually is Premier League Proven quality so would be a promising signing for a Championship club.
When he was at Villa he advanced his game season on season and was actually in the Dutch national squad as he became player of international pedigree or was getting there !

To Cardiff City fan -you'll enjoy him!l he's too good for the Championship!

oops sorry for confusion

i just pop over from time to time especially when there's some sort of link to a player like when callum chambers signed for us a few weeks ago

Chambers should do well at RCB in the second tier. He was decent when he first came to us, playing next to Mings. Kept Konsa out of the team for a while. Awful at RB. Think he did well for Fulham in midfield at the same level but that's years ago.

Big shoes to fill when he’s gone. Small car though.

Apparently, El Ghazi was quite close to joining Man Utd on loan last year.

I wish he had not that they needed him as thankfully they already have Antony.

Don't know why when Anthony is the same type of player.

Remember when people called him El Khazi instead of El Ghazi? My sides were bereft of ribs.

Mateta linked, it's a bit meh from me.

He played well against us, let's buy him. Worked with Stas, Hadji etc.

Mike Ferguson scored a great solo against us and we signed him too

Well I'm going on vacation on Thursday so just needed some clarification that's all because they'll be different player threads existing and disappearing no doubt !
Now let's get back to transfer talk.

Hopefully with Duran going we can bring in the Türkish Aguero, Semih Kilicsoy. It's all gone radio silent on the lad, we apparently put a bid in, then increased it, then nothing.
