Trust the Process!

It's almost as if - and hear me out - there was a contingency plan and list of targets in place, for the event a forward and defender requested to leave the club.

Have to say the guy has earned his corn whilst (are we the only ones) to stay within the rules.

Great turnover of players, even if they are in the main loans, but buys us time and financial breathing space for the summer

Now lets get that 4/5th place and Champs league

Toronto Villain credit , shared from The Athletic.
 
"Villa’s business was led by Monchi and Damian Vidagany, the president’s and director’ of football operations, relying on close contacts and players known to him and Emery. This, to a certain extent, was a product of an unpredictable market.

The power between the three is geared on Monchi and Vidagany, a key conduit with agents, facilitating Emery’s desires while offering suggestions for the manager to accept or reject. Having trusted contacts meant alternative targets could be sourced and sounded out swiftly"

I think they are to be called : The 3 amigos!

Oh FFS, more quotes from the same article? It really isn't necessary.

Monchi got a lot of praise for his janauary transfers but i think summer he has to really improve  on kast summers transfers  and get a new defence in order as this defence is fucking a shambles

We did a lot of business last summer, but didn’t manage to solve all of the issues in the squad. Looking back it’s clear that only Everton, Chelsea and Juventus would do business with us to help our PSR predicament. For this reason we ended-up with several players who weren’t worth including in the squad, and still didn’t manage to sign a right back. With the benefit of hindsight, Onana and Maatsen haven’t justified their transfer fees. However, I don’t know how we could have done any better in the circumstances - we weren’t in a position to sign similarly valued players from other clubs.

Said me. I don't like his business for us and I think the summer and January work wasn't good enough. We had issues with defense that weren't resolved both Summer and Jan. Chelsea's 6th choice centre back who can't get a game isn't the answer.

Doesn’t Emery say where he needs a player e.g. central defence and Monchi goes out and looks for one, with what they need? Perhaps Emery didn’t want or thought he needed a defender for example.

Monchi using his time off to present a lecture reflecting on theology and one's daily faith.
