Tammy Abraham - almost done

[Drummond]

Can do a job protecting Martinez on corners too.

You mean we're selling him to Inter already?

🚨🟣🔵 Tammy Abraham to Aston Villa, here we go! Verbal agreement in principle with Besiktas after personal terms done days ago.

€21m plus add-ons, Yasin Özcan will be also included as part of the agreement.

#AVFC in Turkey now with their directors to formally seal the deal.

Will Özcan be a loan or permanent?

[Clive W]

I think this is a good move

And don’t forget Unai’s ability to improve players

[Chip Butty 111]

Not a lot of money for a striker in this day and age, looking forward to seeing him bang a few in.
Ollie never seems to like competition for his place, so it will be interesting to see how that pans out.

[Goldenballs]

€21m plus Yasin Özcan, or he makes up part of that figure?

He cost us a fair few pennies (cents) didn't he?

I'm pleased with this, I'll feel much more comfortable bringing Tammy on if we need a goal that I am Evan, bless him.

[Skipper_The_Eyechild]

My preference over Mateta this.

Agreed. I'm also pleased for PW, vindication at last.

I believe he was trying to jinx it, though.

Yeah, I thought that was the gag which is why I have been confused by some telling him off.

We all know that only TV has that power.

Just him and Snap!

Cost us £5/6m So if they've got £18m+ Ozcan that's a ridiculously good deal for them doubling their money in such a small period. However, in the grand scheme of things it's not that much to us especially if he scores 5 or so between now and the end of the season.

[eamonn]

We've been had in negotiations, it seems. Besiktas have flipped a player and almost doubled their money on him plus got one of our young lads chucked in. All for a striker who seemingly peaked before a serious injury.

Ashley Young's nondescript return cured me of my nostalgia for old players.
I hope Tammy does well but doubt he'll be any improvement on Malen.

BV, I have the power to bring joy and happiness. In fact most of the first are MY signings. I got rid of Joe Bryant for you through my magic and Conor Gallagher the London loving wanker. I take all credit for our great form and CL appearance. Smirker gave us Guessand. And finally CDs signing Sancho showed up yesterday. Took a while.

[PhilVill]

Will finish the season with more goals for us than The Sacred Cow I reckon 

I don't think that's out of the realms of possibility to be honest and think he'll start quite a few games too (hides behind couch again...)

[Rudy Can't Fail]

I hope Tammy does well but doubt he'll be any improvement on Malen.

We don't need him to be an improvement for Malen, when used he needs to be an improvement on Watkins. He's like for like on that score. I'm fully expecting Watkins to now turn on the turbo chargers, that place in the England squad is still his to lose.

He's need to get, what, eight, on top of anything else Watkins gets in the next four months?

Hope he does it. Means we'll probably have won a couple of trophies and Tammy will probably be going to the World Cup if he does.

I'd be surprised though.

There is no doubt Ollie needs pushing. Be it the injury or just his overall form he’s looked out of sorts all season. If this makes him shoot more accurately then we all win. I’m a Tammy fan, not just because of the past but because he’s actually got a very decent record at Chelsea and Roma. The injury slowed things down obviously. But he’s a good player and I think he will help us.
