They are playing a dangerous game. Their wage bill will be utterly disgusting! Even average players like Ings are apparently on £100k a week.

CloudFox Posted 26 May 2022 Share Posted 26 May 2022 Interesting that Villa have nabbed him, considering Newcastle were after him in January. Very curious to see who Newcastle go for with their next couple of signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of those who will probably start well and look dominant and then slowly you’ll see the holes in his game.

NasPb Posted 26 May 2022 Share Posted 26 May 2022 Live in Sevilla... Don't get me wrong Carlos is very very good. But he flourishes under a good defensive coach. He'll be good individually but Gerrard as a manager will limit him. He's got a rash tackle in him and an error oe two but he's generally solid. No nonsense. But lopetegui is miles better than Gerrard. He's a bit of a system player. Commits a lot of fouls even for the Spanish league. Good player but bad fit imo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To date it’s been crap by him Backed to what extent and crap in what manner? In January they paid 25m for Digne, Cout and Olsen on loan and Chambers for free. This window they’ve got Cout permanent for 18m and Kamara on a free. So up until this signing they hadn’t spent particularly big on any one player nor spent big over a number of signings. The two players they’ve spent money on improve their first 11 and are by no means overpriced. If you think he’s been crap with transfers I don’t know where you’re coming from. If you think Villa have been crap under him, that’s a different argument but he doesn’t seem to have been backed any more than most managers have for a club that size.

Deeg67 Posted 27 May 2022 Share Posted 27 May 2022 So much for the conspiracy theory that Marsch was going to be fired despite saving Leeds' bacon. But hey - Aaronson is an American so he must suck, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The key for their window now is what happens with Phillips. If he goes they need another MF desperately (Adams, perhaps). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moore_94 Posted 27 May 2022 Share Posted 27 May 2022 Mental Kamara has signed a ‘staggering contract’ with Aston Villa that will see him earn £60m over five years. That figure includes a signing bonus but also sees him ‘more than double’ the wages he was earning at Marseille, which were €250k gross per month. In other words, Kamara will be picking up at least a whopping €500k a month at Aston Villa, which works out at €125,000 a week, or €6m a year. That accounts for around half of the £60m he’ll pick up over five years, which means Villa could have also given him as much as a £30m signing on fee to get him ahead of the competition. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect he wanted more than that wage of £105/week but villa can’t keep adding to their wages without having a problem (both in ffp terms and also with the general squad wage structure) so theyve likely loaded the s/o fee to accommodate that. And I suspect they pay that s/o fee split into a guaranteed annual bonus to make it even more acceptable in their annual accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
