There was something in yesterday’s BBC gossip roundup linking us to Barcelona’s Ter Stegan. Not sure why we’d need a keeper as can’t see Martinez moving till the summer.

How have Chevalier and Garcia got on at PSG/Barca?  have they settled or could we revert to the 2024/25 plan this summer?

I think they’ve both been pretty steady, although Garcia has only recently returned from injury after been out for around a month. It’s unlikely they’d be available.

I saw an instagram clip which implied that Chevalier wasn’t working out and he’d been dropped for a Russian (?) keeper.

[Somniloquism]

Chevalier has been injured, not specifically dropped.

[Bent Neilsens Screamer]

Can’t say for certain but likely they were just rotating the squad. The Russian played in goal against Flamengo and apparently saved 4 penalties in the shootout. A different reserve keeper played in the French cup at the weekend and Chervalier and the other keeper were on the bench. Seems like two goalies on the bench is all the rage!

Not well for Chevalier at PSG. Locals not too keen on his decision making, and he has made a number of gaffes.

[Clark W Griswold]

Jarrod Bowen all day. Just what we need, a wide attacking player who is not lightweight and scores goals. Just gone 29 but a 3.5 year contract would be fine. England International. Think he's a Villa fan?

[Sexual Ealing]

He is very wide.

Unless this season drops off a cliff, is there anything to suggest he'll even be leaving in the summer?

The one obvious destination for him decided to buy someone else instead.

Deffo not going well for Chevalier.

It will be interesting to see how much Arse, City, Chelsea and Liverpool spend in Jan having already gone mad in the Summer. Villa will be left window shopping. There is only so much that Unai can get from this squad before the £££ start to make the difference...
