One of the best of his age in local area and will be a successful pro in time. Not convinced spurs was the right move, but hard to turn down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluearmyfox28 Posted 10 July 2019 Share Posted 10 July 2019 I can’t see anyway of Sheff United staying up this year if I’m honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah read a bit about that where basically two different people/consortiums are laying claim to owning the club lol! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, given they already have two decent right backs in Vrsaljko and Arias, unless they are planning to play Vrsaljko at LB to cover for selling Hernandez, think he can play both full back positions.

Great shout, never realised he was at Inter last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FoxyJim1987 Posted 24 July 2019 Share Posted 24 July 2019 To be fair it seems Villa are showing ambition and signing some good players be interesting to see how they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah can go both ways that though, think they've spent close to £100m on ten players, sometimes that approach is a big gamble, look at Fulham last season. Maybe 3-4 in the £20-25m would have made more of a tangible difference. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree. if you turf out all the players that got you to the prem in favour of many new names, then you risk destabilisation amongst the playing staff. Rarely ends well. As you stated, Fulham is a prime example. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They needed that many new players though, quite a lot of loan players went back as well as some released on frees who aren't good enough. This is the problem with loans in the lower leagues, the squad rotation every season can be huge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martyn Posted 24 July 2019 Share Posted 24 July 2019 As Ric said Villa needed the signings to flesh out their squad. I understand the Fulham comparison but it's far too simplistic. Villa might not have the managerial upheaval Fulham did, and the new players may all/mostly adapt really quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the argument, there are plenty of home grown incomings, but its also about more than just that (Not that I am saying that this was the point you were making) But Wesley, Engels and Trezeguet may take some time, and then whole squad needs to blend. Will be interesting to see how they get on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every signing is a gamble especially from abroad, BUT the likes of Wesley, Trezeguet, Engels etc look decent international players, Mings was immense for them last season, on the face of it they should do OK, but like you say its always hard to tell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought at the time that the majority of Fulham's signings were good. Seri, Schurrle, Bryan and Mitrovic. It's very precarious business that first season back in the PL, we know that kore than anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely mate and i totally agree 1st season when you see close up the quality and unforgiving nature of the prem, it's totally different from the championship and you can get yourself in a big hole with losses piling up very quickly. Chemistry might be an issue to start with but their core of James Chester, Mings, McGinn, Grealish is decent, Targett is a good player, it all depends if Wesley and enough others can score the goals for them like Abraham did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
