Bristol City played ManC in a League Cup semi a couple of seasons back and their forum, OTIB, were raging about the media billing it as City vs Bristol. They henceforth referred to ManC simply as 'Manchester'. 1

UniFox21 Posted 4 August 2021 Posted 4 August 2021 Ridiculous signing, Villa are making some big moves. Wonder if this is where Ralph's players and money rant came from.
Lcfc Jordan Posted 4 August 2021 Posted 4 August 2021 Not worried about Ings going Villa , without grealish they will struggle with creativity

I bet you they've overpaid there but that doesn't suprise me. Exactly my thoughts. I don’t think it’s as good as it looks. Also off to put some big money on Dean smith being the first manager sacked. A lot of pressure on him and he’s very average
UniFox21 Posted 4 August 2021 Posted 4 August 2021 Always thought Alex Crook was a bit slow given Ings has now signed for Villa 2
winteriscoming Posted 4 August 2021 Posted 4 August 2021 Gotta say Villa have made some really good signings.

Thought they'd be a lot smarter than that. So they've spent their money in bailey, buendia and ings.....interesting approach. Edited 4 August 2021 by Chocolate Teapot

sdb Posted 4 August 2021 Posted 4 August 2021 Wonder how much that cost? Still only a few injuries off being bang average, but what a window it's been for them.

Fox92 Posted 4 August 2021 Posted 4 August 2021 (edited) Good signing depending on the price. Injuries are a problem but he's a goalscorer. Still managed 13 last season and he had his injury problems. Edited 4 August 2021 by Fox92
Tielemans63 Posted 4 August 2021 Posted 4 August 2021 Danny Ings is a quality striker. Good signing imho

Buendia I reckon is a great signing, Bailey is 50/50 - his attitude isn’t the best, Ings I don’t think is value. What’s notable about Villa is the level of player they have currently means their wage bill (Young included must have took a huge jump). I think it also means Smith is trying to shoehorn two strikers in his team two weeks before the season isn’t great planning Edited 4 August 2021 by Cardiff_Fox
Corky Posted 4 August 2021 Posted 4 August 2021 I thought Ings was only leaving Saints for Champions League football (which is why the Tottenham rumours were just that)?
Leicesterpool Posted 4 August 2021 Posted 4 August 2021 Southampton going to struggle next season, another season goes and another key player leaves. It'll be battle to keep Ward-Prowse I'm not sure if that ends the links to Villa. 3
StanSP Posted 4 August 2021 Posted 4 August 2021 Very random. But another good signing for Villa. 11 minutes ago, Lcfc Jordan said: Not worried about Ings going Villa , without grealish they will struggle with creativity Yes. Absolutely no creativity at all in Traore, Buendia, Bailey is there.

He wasn't that good in the prem last time.

Leicesterpool Posted 4 August 2021 Posted 4 August 2021 Tammy Abraham possible move to Villa is likely off now, chance for Leicester to get a look in there we certainly do need a striker. 1
