Amadou Onana

[Richard E]

I hope he signs in the next couple of days.

🟣🔵🩺 Medical tests today for Amadou Onana as new Aston Villa player.

He’s expected to sign the contract on Monday, as reported. ⤵️🇧🇪

Daz 'hopes', it happens.

Can you hope we win the quadruple without conceding a goal next, Darren?

[Smithy]

I listen to the Blue Room & Royal Blue (Everton) podcasts every week, because the lads are articulate, intelligent and balanced. Several of the contributors are sanguine about it, and while disappointed, Onana is their preferred sale if one is needed to keep hold of Branthwaite, Pickford and Calvert-Lewin.

One contributor, Joe Thomas of the Liverpool Echo, is convinced he’s an £80m player, and another one is absolutely fuming they’re selling so cheap.

I think Calvert-Lewin has to prove himself this season, I'm surprised they wouldn't rather him go considering his injury record. Guess it's the problem of who they could bring in.

It boggles the mind that people still talk about Calvert-Lewin as having 'potential' (not you, but I see others talking about how he's "potentially" a great striker).  The guy is 27.  He's only 18 months younger than Ollie!

And Ollie has only reached full potential in the last eighteen months so, on that basis, fair enough?

And there was this guy who seemed to have his peak years in his mid-thirties.

Is it too late to get Gabby out of retirement?

That was the fella I was trying to remember when talking to my mate the other week regarding late-blooming strikers.

According to the ticker tape on Sky he’s having the longest medical in history today.

He’s quite tall so there is a lot to check.

I believe it’s not becoming  to address Darren directly. You maybe in violation of an unwritten site rule.

Just had a weekend away with my Everton ST holder mate and he as full of praise for Onana but said he fell out of favour with Dyche as he was always looking to get the ball from the back to play  out of the press but most of the time it was lumped over him by Pickford.
He thinks with better footballers around him and a proper coach he could really flourish.
Interestingly considering his huge height he reckons he has a 50p head and does not use his well.

I think a mix of him, Barkley and Tielemans with Kamara to come back we will not miss Luiz
